📋 About This Mod
Do you have mods that increase the max HP of Steel Watchers such that their self-detonation is triggered when they have a lot of HP still?
Do you think that Steel Watchers are easy to beat?
This is the mod for you!
This mod makes it so that the self-detonation of Steel Watchers only trigger when they reach 1 HP or what otherwise be death, so they keep 1 HP and activate the self-detonation.
Feedback is much appreciated.
Also, let me know if you have any suggestion for changes regarding enemies mechanics.
