Ranks only ever go up; points can drop but your rank stays.

It could have work better on modern machine where modpacks which has 500 mods + shaders have worked without any drops.
The most frustrating things are schemes of crafting which not tell why this kind of type thing won't do in this recipe - you have to guess which kind of wood it has to be made - name is the same like every stump which was made of wood.
Also guessing how to use kiln and fire is another level of magic thinking.
I had expectations which this modpack didn't meet at all.
