Harder Mode(s)
Enemies deals more damage and have more life, and more optional difficulty enhancements. This mod main and optional files modifies SQL data.
Use Mod Merger to merge between themselves or other mods. It won’t work otherwise.
I made this collection of mod(s) to provide a more challenging difficulty.
The base mod is raw increase of enemies damage and health, and optional ones are more subtle changes that plays nicely with hard mode to feel less overpowered. Basically, you have options:
Make a hard mode that fits you!
(although I advise nearly all the optional files as they force you to use game mechanics)
Original / Base mode added difficulty
Increase enemies damage / health (+25 / 50 / 100 / 200 / 300%, you choose)
PS: You do not need the base mode to use the optional files, everything is standalone (or mixed with mod merger)
Optional files and other mods for added difficulty
Higher buying prices
Nerf Beats byproduct and harder capture
Nerf Disillusionment (stealth), now only last 30 seconds and has cooldown of 15 seconds
Nerf Curses cooldown / duration / level for upgrade
Nerf Plants with less in inventory and longer growing times
Increase Moonstone costs for necessities (3x, not decoration), and generator takes 4x more time
Less potions slots (highly recommended, makes fights more tense)
Potions requires more ingredients to craft (makes all those crafting ingredients more useful)
WARNING: use it after you did the first Potion classroom as you won’t have enough ingredient
Longer Hopping Pots to 1 hour (it is too OP to get 3 random potions every 12 mins, never makes you farm components to actually craft)
Increase maximum NPC level scaling to 40 (hard to validate, got one feedback it seems to work, not necessarily 40 but more 39)
More enemies
Ancient Magic finisher 30s cooldown on bosses (not tested, sadly no save in front of boss, need feedback)
Less XP (more experience per level required)
WARNING: feedback it lowers your current level retro-actively and you keep talents already bought. Remove mod restore initial level correctly.
Gear Rarity balances to make legendary very rare, add Basic (grey) gear back, and a few more items can be looted for diversity
From my other mods (highly recommended, no merge required, it uses UE4SS):
No Health Regen outside of combat.
Ancient Magic deals less damage (when I nearly one shot a boss in red level, I decided this is enough).
Optional file to balance difficulty
Add a Protego cooldown to enemies to be 5 or 10 seconds (you choose) for Hard mode (default is 0 cooldown).
