Reputation ranks
Ranks only ever go up; points can drop but your rank stays.
About reputation ranksThis pack starts out as a pack very firmly focused on exploration, with many dungeons and dimensions to explore. This pack makes Alex's Caves separate dimensions, as well as adds several other dimension mods. One of the interesting things is that to get Thermal Expansion ores, instead of mining, you have to run specific dimensional dungeons - a nice twist that emphasizes the exploration at the heart of the beginning of the pack.
And then you hit the crafting portion of the pack. Lots of Create, a bit of Thermal Expansion, tons of time spent in one place, crafting. This is the expert portion of the pack, and in my opinion, it felt like running into a wall at a sprint and coming to a dead stop. All the time was spent between two locations - my oil pump and my Create base. There were two more dimensions I had yet to open up, but by that point, I had lost interest.
I'm not a huge fan of expert packs, but I have enjoyed them in the past. This one just felt like a tonal whiplash, switching between the exploration focus to the 'stay in one place and craft' focus. If you think you can handle that better, I really enjoyed the first half of this modpack.
