📋 About This Mod

Prepare to die (Hard Mode) updated for Shadow of the Erdtree.This project is intended to keep the original mod fully functional for you to continue enjoying what the vanilla experience should have been from launch.Original author:

For more information on how the mod works, read the original post from the mods’ author.

The Prepare to die project is a whole complete revamp of enemy AI and enemy stats to increase difficulty more than just health and damage.

Extremely difficult but fairWhat the base experience should have beenA new challenge to replay the game, not by adding more content but embracing what is already thereI got sick of seeing all of these "easy mode" being pumped out every other day, so I made this instead

1. Be prepared for NG+ difficulty from the start of your journey.

2. Underestimating the enemy will be your downfall.

- Enemies and wildlife are no longer blind or deaf, neither have short term memory loss.

3. You can now only warp to churches and cathedrals.

- Delete or rename the "map" folder to disable it (not advised).

4. Your surrounding matters on every step.

5. Experience on hide and seek is mandatory.

6. Do not despise the power of an arrow.

7. Consumables may whisper to the lost soul if the right questions are made.

Personal recommendation: Combine this mod with Clever’s Moveset Modpack. Depending on which weapons you decide to use, the move set will act like a difficulty slider and provide a beautiful combo “Dangerous world – Exciting combat”.

Installation

Install with Mod Engine 2 and ENJOY!!!

1. Update warping for the DLC.

2. Add status effects to torrent.

Right now, I am not working on this mod, so don't expect updates anytime soon.
