📋 About This Mod

v2. 0. 1. 0

UPDATED TO THE RELEASE 2. 0

This mod adds a new challenge when confronting Bosses, more specifically: Sasquatch, Oda and Adam Smasher. Each of them got new healthbars added, in the case of Adam Smasher, his stages were also pushed to the different healthbars. As for Oda, I've made something special adding his camouflage cloak to his mantis phase, so now it will be harder to spot his attacks. This should add a new edge when you get to confront them, so before you get into the fight. Keep your ammo up, grenades checked and meds available :)

Vanilla vs Mod

In the vanilla version of the game, once you get to the boss, even at the Very Hard difficulty, there's not much of a challenge if you have good guns and equipment. That's why I wanted to work on this mod for a while. Now you should be really prepared for blood. Also, use the environment guns, items, etc. :)

Bosses affected

- Sasquatch (+1 Healthbar and painkiller buff pushed to the second bar)

- Oda (+2 Healthbars and Cloak added to Mantis phase)

- Adam Smasher  (+2. 5 Healthbars, and each phase was pushed to it's own bar)

My other mod(s):

Bosses Rebalanced - Step up the challenge with the main bosses, adding new healthbars and buffs into different bars. Ammo up and good luck!

Soft Crafting - Added multipliers and dividers to make the crafting less demanding

Saving Areas Restricted - Change the mechanism of saving and quicksaving while inside hostile areas. Save it before, face the challenge!

Never Lock Outfits - Bypass the restriction of having to use specific clothes or outfits and allow you to unequip and replace them even on the prologue

Never Lock Quickhacks - Bypass the cyberware tier restrictions, so you can equip any quickhack with any tier of cyberware

Never Lock Saves - Bypass the saving restrictions of saving games and creates an autosave when trying to save the game when you wouldn't be allowed to.

Deprecated mod(s)

- Working only up to the release 1. 63:

Crafting Rebalanced - Change the mechanism of crafting, upgrading and scraping items to make it level-based rather than quality alone
