Tutorial/A Beginner's Guide to Tekkit Classic (by Coolbeans55555)

This page
Hi. I'm coolbeans55555, and I noticed that despite all the guides for individual mods, there are not very many that suggest an order for when to get started on which mod, or anything like that. So, I decided to make a page describing what order I usually get things, as well as, in some cases, the reasons behind those decisions.

The very basics
When you first spawn in to your world, you should look around for some rubber trees, which are easiest to find in a swamp biome. Then, start out pretty much the same as in vanilla with two exceptions. first, don't use coal, use charcoal instead, for reasons which will be explained later.
