📋 About This Mod
Playing Shattered Space felt way worse than Vanilla Starfield for me. In short, I needed to sit down and implement a lot of the things mods have done over the last year to Shattered Space NPCS.
AI will play similarly to PEAK/Royal Instincts, which is VITAL given the low Vanilla enemy density.
This will receive frequent updates as I play.
This should be on par with Royal Leveled Enemies and go with any other Leveled Enemy mod list you are running.
I have kept my time and energy focused on free mods and Nexus. The amount of time I put into this is truly irresponsible of me.

This mod adds level scaling to NPCs that were missing it in Shattered Space, along with size randomization and speed/stat improvements. It aims to make enemies behave more like those from PEAK/Royal Instincts, which is crucial given the low vanilla enemy density. For players seeking a more challenging and varied combat experience.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 418 endorsements and over 42k downloads — clearly filling a need.
- Addresses a real issue: vanilla enemy density is low, so smarter, scaled enemies keep combat engaging.
- Size randomization adds visual variety to encounters, making each fight feel less predictable.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated October 2024 — may not be compatible with the latest game patches.
- No explicit install instructions or dependency list provided by the author.
- Requires the Shattered Space DLC, so it's useless if you don't own that expansion.
For Starfield players who own Shattered Space and want tougher, more varied enemies without overhauling the whole game. If you're a veteran looking for a challenge that respects your build, this is a solid pick. Skip if you prefer vanilla balance or don't have the DLC.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you own the Shattered Space DLC — this mod won't work without it.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts.
- Pair this with a combat overhaul mod for the full PEAK/Royal Instincts experience.
