Enemy Rarity Fixes

INTRODUCTION

Hey, I was an expert gameplay designer working on Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion pack. This mod was waiting on my drive for over half a year, until now, when I finally found the time and felt like submitting it to nexus.

There is a certain power fantasy in Cyberpunk setting involving mercs, corpos and gangs. When you start down at the bottom and climb to hit the big leagues to go out in a blaze of glory, you need stable references to measure yourself against to know how powerful you've become. A borged arasaka agent should wipe the floor with a scav ganger in sweatpants. This is not, however how the game often works.

TLDR, changes:

Main file

• []fixed the rarity of all characters in the game[/]

  []removed quest rarity overrides where applicable[/]

  []removed some of the artificial stat buffs or nerfs (e.g. Jackie's lowered accuracy)[/]

  []removed arbitrary mega buffs from MaxTac - they are now at the level of bosses[/]

  []disabled rarity scaling with level and difficulty[/]

  []disabled downward damage scaling for WEAK and TRASH rarity[/]

  []adjusted archetype abilities to reflect tier scaling of subdermal armor and sandevistan qualities[/]

  []enemies with sandevistan can now keep up and compete with player's sandevistan depending on quality difference between them[/]

  []further lowered scripted car chase enemy damage (e.g. quest chases in nomad origin and Rescue quest at the beginning of the game)[/]

  []fixes to character record issues, like missing AI archetype data, use of deprecated OFFICER rarity, etc.[/]

  []adjusted corpo factions' weapon pools to ensure they use guns of their own production if such exist in given weapon category[/]

  Optional

  HP tweaks

  Adds HP multipliers to rarities. Meant to be used with Gunsensical mod and (optional) Weapon Damage Scaling Rebalance

  1. STEEP scaling

  • []TRASH: x0. 42 - was 80HP @lvl1, is 34 - allows for a headshot kill with Unity with and without Gunsensical[/]

    []WEAK: x0. 46 - was 110HP @lvl1, is 50 - allows for a headshot kill with Unity with and without having both Gunsensical and Weapon Damage Scaling mods[/]

    []NORMAL: x0. 9 - was 130HP @lvl1, is 117 - simulates player HP at level 1 - allows for point blank shotgun kill, especially with mods[/]

    []RARE: x2 - was 195HP @lvl1 , is 390 - turns RARE into ELITE[/]

    []ELITE: x3 - was 390HP @lvl1, is 1170 - turns ELITE into BOSS[/]

    []BOSS: x2 - was 1170HP @lvl1, is 2340[/]

    2. MILD scaling

    []TRASH: x0. 42 - was 80HP @lvl1, is 34 - allows for a headshot kill with Unity with and without Gunsensical[/]

    [*]WEAK: x0. 46 - was 110HP @lvl1, is 50 - allows for a headshot ki
