Vault Hunters is a modpack primarilly focused around entering vaults, fighting monsters, and obtaining extraordinary loot from these randomized vaults.

There are elements of resource gathering, in that entering these vaults has a cost. The cost is a random assortment of vanilla items that can be tedious, or even difficult to obtain (wood, nether stars...). If you aren't one for automation/resource gathering, don't worry; the modpack is very customizable through many commands you can find in the book you start your journey with.

In terms of being an RPG: VH has it all. Customize your character through skills, talents & expertise. Mold your build with different pieces of gear, and choose that gears appearance through the transmogrification table.

With the explanation out of the way: here are the shining points of the pack.

Combat: 10/10 - the best PVE experience I've ever had in minecraft. Fight hordes of mobs with fireballs, thorns damage, poison clouds, glacial rain, thunder storms, or a simple swing of your sword. There are tons of viable builds available.

Resource gathering: 10/10 - this modpack made me interested in building farms like no other. The vaults give resource gathering purpose, since entering them is not free.

Content: 10/10 - You will never run out of things to do. In the vault, there are countless goals you can set for yourself; many things to find and explore, and outside of it; there are even more things to do. Cut jewels you've found, purchase from the black market, accept bounties, build up your farms, and so much more. I have 1,000+ hours in this pack for a reason, and not a second of it did I find myself searching for purpose.

Ends notes:

The modpack continues to update frequently, and more and more things are added. This is amazing, but also the reason performance & stability are rated as a 3. -1 because it's a rather large pack, and not everyone can run it, and another -1, because things can change, and sometimes documentation of these changes isn't the best.

There are many features and amazing things in this modpack you just can't know exist if you aren't actively watching other peoples letsplays. The quest book could be improved, as of update 12.

In the end, it remains the best pack I've ever played. If you liked Hack/Mine back in the good old days, or any modern RPG pack, you'll love this. No other RPG experience in minecraft compares.

Oh: and for the skyblock enjoyers --- this pack also has you covered. In world creation, you can make your playthrough a skyvault one. This world is also more performant for those with lower computer specs.
