📋 About This Mod

Mini-bosses and variants, increased enemy aggression. Hard mode enemy stats adjusted from 250% to 50% (15% for bosses). Eve base HP: 2000 -> 6500. Dead enemy bodies are persistent and stay in the game world much longer.

This mod adds mini-bosses and variants to vanilla game for more variety throughout various levels, with some named and using the boss HP bar UI (e.g. the first heavy guardian encounters and the fights with the Royal Guard). They are usually visibly bigger.

This mod drastically increases Eve's durability. If you're playing New Game+, consider removing gears and spines to increase difficulty ^o^ And, if you're loading a saved game with more than 1 tumbler and other healing items, use them up, save the game, and play normally. You should only have 1 tumbler!

* Please note that none of my mods are compatible with each other (except the small ones like sound replacers). Also very likely incompatible with other gameplay mods.

List of Mini-bosses & Variants:

Heavy Guardian

Large Creeper

Medium Creeper

Hedgeboar Elite

Large Cricket Butcher

Large Infector (5% bigger)

Large Defiler

Large Skulling Zombie

Large Battle Droid

Large Attack Robot Hound

Large Thornhead (Wasteland)

Sheol (smaller Abaddon, Wasteland)

Second Stalker (Great Desert)

Large Mite, Orthrix Devourer (Matrix 11)

Enemies are also a little more aggressive and will attack in larger groups, but their detection radius is unchanged. Bodies are also persistent and will remain in the game world for usually about 4 minutes.

Eve’s base HP increased from 2000 to 8000 and Hard Mode enemy stats reduced from 250% to 15%.

The Sentinel Droid still aims low and cannot shoot over low obstacles, which is fixed in my main mod. I will try to include it in this mod as soon as possible.

To do list:

- Make mini-bosses more unique by replacing spawns with more common variants (also for balance as mini-bosses now sometimes spawn in triplets)

- Use boss HP bar in more instances

- Add more variants

_____

Part of my main mod ^^: Stronger Eve - More HP - No Instant Death - Stamina and Health Condition - Skill Effects - Aggressive Enemies - Tachy Stance - Blade unlock in Altess Levoire

Also by me ^^:

Immersive Stronger Eve Gameplay Rebalance

No Instant Death and Reduced Environmental Damage - Falls - Traps

Persistent Bodies

Note: Not compatible with [Stronger Eve] or . Use  if you want to combine these two features. Alternatively, Stronger Eve combines everything and more.
