How Much RAM Does an Enigmatica 2: Expert - Extended Server Need?
Enigmatica 2: Expert - Extended is the hard-mode layer stacked on top of base Enigmatica 2: Expert on Forge 1.12.2, not the base pack and not the separate Skyblock variant — see the Enigmatica 2: Expert - Extended pack page for the full rundown. It adds more mods and deeper crafting chains on top of E2E's already-demanding recipe overhaul, so it needs more RAM headroom than a typical pack its size.

6 GB
Bare minimum for solo play or a quick test boot. It can start, but with Extended's added mods and deeper crafting chains on top of base E2E, you'll hit garbage-collection stalls once automation chains start running.
8 GB
The best starting point for most Enigmatica 2: Expert - Extended servers. This matches the pack's own recommended floor and gives Forge 1.12.2 enough headroom for the extra mod integration Extended adds over base E2E.
10 GB
Safer for a mid-size active group running multiple parallel automation setups. Extended's extended recipe chains mean more simultaneously loaded machines than base E2E, so the extra 2 GB buys real stability margin.
12 GB
Recommended for 10+ players or a long-running world with a large base and heavy processing infrastructure. At this scale the combination of Extended's added mods and a sprawling explored world needs the extra ceiling.
