Stagger Meter BETA

Description

Enemy Stagger Indicator adds a simple combat UI display that shows an enemy's current super armor / stagger value next to their name while you are fighting them.

In Gothic, enemies have an internal value that determines when they can be stunned or staggered. This mod makes that value visible, so you can better understand when your next attack is likely to break their resistance and cause a stagger.

The goal is to keep the feature lightweight and useful without changing combat balance. It does not make enemies easier, weaker, or more vulnerable. It only displays information that already exists in the game.

Installation instructions

1. Download the mod archive.

2. Extract the contents into your Gothic installation folder.

3. Make sure the mod files are placed in the correct game directory as provided in the archive.

4. Launch the game.

If you are using a mod manager, install it like any other Gothic mod and make sure it is enabled before starting the game.
