Minecraft 1.18.8 brought significant changes to world generation, which is heavier on the CPU. Running an X-Ray pack actually helps performance in some areas because your GPU has fewer solid blocks to render. However, in the new deep dark biomes or large caverns, the sheer number of exposed entities can cause stuttering if you don't have a decent computer. I found that most packs ran smoothly on 1.18.8 without requiring Optifine, though Optifine is recommended for the "Night Vision" toggle that often accompanies these packs.
For builders, this pack can inspire creativity by making it easier to visualize and plan complex projects. Seeing through blocks can help in designing intricate structures or in navigating through tight spaces.
