I suggest... FTB Lite if you're just getting into Minecraft. Top Notch Gaming PC's stumble with Minecraft, and a fine place to start is with a handful of mods. After that, it's more of a question of what do you want from Minecraft? Tech? Magic? Challenges? A mix of these?

Ahah. Didnt explain enough sorry. I'm a veteran to minecraft and when I say a top notch pc, I mean one which I know runs modded minecraft well into late game.
I like everything, but I have a thing with goals being set for me. I haven't properly played Minecraft in months (excluding AgSkies) as I cant set challenges for myself, so if there's mods which do that, twould be awesome.

Well, as said, Hard Core Questing may suit you nicely. I prefer challenges like the Refuge to Regent Challenge(except my main beef with it is that I can't make even a slight bit of defense until I've gotten past the dirt hovel stage, aside from a hovel of shame with lights unlocked only if I can get rubber sap torches going).

I thus suggest TPPI for it's nice mix of pretty much everything, and relative ease of adding new things.

Actually, if you want challenges? Get a vechs map, and vanilla.

You won't be sorry. Upset? Ready to kill someone? Sure. Sorry? Nope.

Must say that starting in or near a magical biome can be rather OP due to MB hives and the endstone/glowstone etc. you can get VERY early on.

To say the truth, even if i restart my games each 20 hours or so. I always take the time to look around and see if I can install my base near a magical forest.

Openblocks Elevators.

No need for clunky stairwells taking up floor space,
No butt ugly ladder nonsense
No need for a huge pile of them to go a decent distance (unlike arcane levitators)
No power usage

These things are so bloody convenient for getting about in Bloke Towers.

My most recent discovery is that a T5 Blood Alter has enough space between the beacons to have a 15x15 circle from witchery...

This allows me to get one step closer to my own version of the "Garden of Life" for the center of my building plans.

They're not as fast, but PneumatiCraft elevators have the distinct pimp factor of looking and acting like real elevators.

Damn.

Btw I believe you can upgrade them to be super-fast (but not instant like OpenBlocks)

But if you make them too fast, you need Featherfalling to not hurt yourself when going down. (unless you want to use this as a trap for unwanted visitors, which i do...)

I've learned that a mekanism obsidian sword with a geostrata strength pendant allows me to one shot any vanilla mob. Combine this with the powersuit speed boost and I can zip the end getting all the ender pearls amd xp I need.
