Minecraft Mod Pack Suggestions

So basically me and some friends are creating a mod pack for us to play on and we are having trouble coming up with mods to put into the pack either because we don't know of a good mod or we can't remember the name of a mod we like. We would really appreciate any suggestions of mods with a small description of the mod! Also please make sure that the mod is available for versions 1.9 and 1.10!

Thank You!

 

What kinds of mods are you after?
Magical mods like Botania, Tech mods like Thermal Expansion or others?
I've never made a modpack myself before, but I recommend the Direwolf20 pack, of which can be found on the Curse of FTB client.
(Side note: You probably already know this, but you'll need a fairly beefy computer)

 

Well to begin there's of Course Optifine which should be avaivable on all vesions, it generally reduces lag and is a godsaint. It doesn't Change gameplay itself but it's just really nice to have.

Then there's thaumcraft, I'm not sure if it's in 1.9 yet but it is really cool, I like to call it mad science Simulator but really it's more alchemy related stuff, you build Things which are really awesome and give you Special powers, there is a wand Focus you can make which baisicly functions like spiderman's web, so you can baisicly be spiderman, and it is generally about getting materials and "essentia" to make really awesome magical stuff. Also it is compatble with some mods, meaning that you can craft stuff like wand caps out of modded metals sometimes and modded items have essentia values, meaníng you can smelt them in for crafting.

Then there is the M-ore mod which adds more ores, and while in itself it isn't that spectacular it works really well with thaumcraft since all thoose Special ores you gathered can actually be used for crafting.

There is also the More Creatures mod which isn't that usefull but it does add some fun to the game actually having something to fight with theese OP magical weapons of doom.

Also I have damage indicators mod installed which doesn't add much but is just kinda usefull.

Xaero's minimap which also adds waypoints which is just really usefull for not having to backtrack wherever you go and walk between the same 3 Locations again and again because spacing Things out is really important in not creating too much Flux in Thaumcaft.


AdventofAccension and Dungeon tactics I'm not sure what thoose do but it's probably all the Special Skeletons and loot bags so I can only reccomend it.

I'm not sure if all of theese are avaivable in 1.9 but I hope they are, but baisicly thaumcraft for sure and almost everything else will make it even better.

 

What I mean is we wanna create a mod pack of our own and we are struggling to come up with mods on our own and we want any mod suggestions of any types.

________________________________

Thank you so much for your suggestions we will definitely consider putting these in the pack!

 

Here's a list. DBC, Ars Magica, Damage Indicators, Opti Fine, Orespawn, Custom NPCs, The mod with the ME System (Can't remember its name), The mod with Quantum Armor (Again can't remember name), and Botania. Hope this helps you.

 

use More Player Models
its really fun for roleplays and these stuff

 

Witchery, Galacticraft, Carpenters blocks and Chisel, Big Reactors if your using any of those factory mods like Thermal Expansion, Imdustrial Craft or Advance Machines, Tinker Construct (and Meckworks), Bibliocraft, Forestry, Magic Bees, Pam's Harvest Quest, Mantle, and all the mods above.

Can'the conform that they are all updated to 1.9, but I can conform they are good.
