Awakening - Sky of Diamonds (1.12.2) - Very easy skyblock pack with lots of fun things.

Key mods: Logistics Pipes, Mekanism (v9), Pneumaticraft, NuclearCraft:Overhauled, RFTools+Dimensions, Advanced Rocketry, Thaumcraft, Mahou Tsukai.

FTB University (1.12.2) - followup to Academy, with a focus on mods with more complexity.

Even if you are experienced, this pack can be a lot of fun to play, especially if it is with people who are brand new to modded Minecraft.

Other Thoughts: I've never seen a tutorial system as awesome as what you get in this pack.

Key mods: Tinkers + Leveling, AA, Thermal, Botania, Astral Sorcery, Twilight Forest.

FTB Academy (1.12.2) - Kitchen Sink pack filled with awesome tutorials, designed for players new to modded.
