About this mod

Changes Crystal Hunt's early-game difficulty similar to end-game difficulty but still keeps progression.

Permissions and credits
Maxed-Out Difficulty
A B&S mod that makes early-game difficulty similar to end-game difficulty but still keeps progression.

First and foremost, THIS MOD DOES NOT RAISE ENEMY HEALTH, nor does it lower player health. Changing the damage you take/give is already an option offered to you when you start Crystal Hunt, so mods that hard code changes health values are generally pointless. That said, I recommend hard mode or a custom difficulty for a more difficult experience. If archers are giving you trouble, buy some armor and learn to tactically position yourself while fighting.
Features
6 Enemy Wave Cap
  • A maximum of 6 enemies spawn at once during wave combat, instead of 4. This alone increases the difficulty by a surprising amount. May potentially be harder on your CPU.
Brain Replacement
  • Normally, AI difficulty has progression through harder factions. This removes AI difficulty progression and instead makes every faction have a very hard AI brain setting. It's one small step above the difficulty of The Eye's combat AI.
  • Just settings are tweaked, so Outlaws for instance won't be using new spells or weapons.
  • May conflict with other mods that change enemy brain files. Nothing bad will happen, but this mod will probably overwrite them all.
Progression Rebalance
  • Every outpost you get in Crystal Hunt will have difficulty similar to post-game. You will be able to see 3* and 4* difficulty outposts immediately. 
  • Also gives a very small chance for The Eye and Eraden Army outposts to spawn at any point in progression. 
  • Note, this will give you quite a bit more gold than normal, since you get more gold from higher difficulty outpost runs.
Accurate Archers
  • Alters the bow items to make enemies shoot with more accuracy. Only changes AI settings within the bow. Does not work on modded bows that enemies use. This is generally a subtle change but you will probably get hit more if you aren't careful.
Armored Enemies
  • Adds helmets to a few of the enemies in the Eraden Army and The Eye. Not new helmets, just makes enemies spawning without helmets less likely.

You can edit this mod to your liking by deleting the sub folders in this mod, named similarly to the above features.
