📋 About This Mod
Update 1. 1: four new versions for use either with vanilla tactician (+30% hp) or modded tactician (+0% hp), unchanged AC or -2 AC (for use with ReArmored Mod) Added shambler boss from act 2
Recommended on a new save only (changes may not effect existing saves) changes may not revert after uninstalling on saves that used this mod. This mod changes base stats of characters, so it might potentially be multiplied again by tactician difficulty. I recommend you use some mod which stops multiplication of enemy hp in tactician mode, like tactician plus or my tactician mod
Will conflict with other mods which edit the same base character stats, only use one of these types of mods or mind your load order.

[]Increase the base health of boss characters by 50%
[
]Lower the AC of boss characters by 1 (but not less than 10 AC)Base game is already nicely balanced, but I wanted a little something extra for boss characters. There are other mods like this, but upon further inspection I find they've made too many changes for my taste. All this mod does is increase health of ONLY boss type characters and slightly reduces their armor, making them easier to hit.
AC is used to determine hit or miss. Base AC for just about anything in the game is 10, so I didn't reduce anything below this threshold. 11 becomes 10, 12 becomes 11, etc. It's a very slight change but helps offset the increased health.
Optional file is for modders, contains every unchanged vanilla record that was modified (essentially a list of all the bosses in the game) if you want to edit them to your own liking.
More Boss Health is a compact gameplay mod that increases boss health by 50% to make encounters more challenging. It also serves as an optional modder resource. With 43 endorsements and 1,476 downloads, it's a niche tool for players seeking tougher boss fights.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective – 50% more boss health makes fights last longer and feel more epic
- Lightweight mod with 1,476 downloads, so it's been tried by a decent number of players
- Can be used as a resource for modders looking to tweak boss stats
⚠️ Cons
- Only 43 endorsements – not a huge community following, so support might be limited
- Last updated in November 2023 – might not be updated for the latest game patches
For players who find boss fights too easy and want a quick difficulty spike without overhauling the whole game. Also for modders who need a base for boss health tweaks. Skip if you want more complex boss behavior changes – this only affects health.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only changes boss health, it's safe to install manually – just drop the files into your mod folder.
- If you're using other gameplay mods, test boss fights early to ensure the health increase isn't too extreme.
