How to play FTB Inferno?

If you've played SkyBlock or StoneBlock, you'd know that SkyBlock is played in the air and StoneBlock is underground. Similar to those, this is a nether-only modpack.

When you start the game, you are limited in items and resources, and you need to get creative with what you have to be able to eventually get out of the Nether and reach the end game. You can't use any blocks except Netherite (which is used to craft tools) and fire. There are no torches, so you'll have to find them in the Nether. The Nether has its own mobs, which will attack you if they see you. They also drop Netherite, which is needed to craft more powerful tools.

As soon as you start the game, there won't be much of anything around you, except maybe one or two trees and some bushes. But if you open up your inventory, you'll see an item called Shroom of Illumination. Keep that one in your hand to have a bit of illumination around you, because you'll need it as you go down to explore the nether in search of a way out. (PS: If it gets too dark, you can always increase brightness from the settings.)

Another item in your inventory will be Inferno's Mercy x 5. It looks like a golden apple you eat to heal yourself, but if you look closer at the description, you'll see a clue saying "Not yet eaten! What does it taste like?" The reason is that it's a part of a crucial recipe you'll be crafting soon as you progress.

And finally, the last item in your inventory is a utility tool called Soul Fire. You can use it to set spawn points and heal yourself. Make sure you don't lose it!

Now take a look at the top left of your screen, and you'll see your questbook.  This little booklet will be your biggest help throughout the game. You can also collect your rewards as you unlock new areas and craft more items. Once you collect your very first reward, you'll see a menu on the left with two sections in it. The Sanctuary and Dark Forest. These are your starting areas in Limbo. We recommend starting with the Sanctuary because it's much simpler and you'll learn the basics of the modpack much more quicker. Once you selected, the game will start a new quest called "A light in the darkness". Accept the challenge to start your first journey in the sanctuary.

Feed The Beast requires a minimum of 4GB of RAM. However, 6GB is their recommendation. When we set up a 6GB server, it ran smoothly for a single person. If you're going to play with up to 4 people, we recommend at least 8GB of RAM to avoid crashing and other issues you'll run along the way.
