Changelogs
Version .2
changed hp modifier from 1.35 to 1.25, and other stat modifiers from 1.25 to 1.15. Chapter 1 bosses were super tanky and hit like trucks. I also modified the shield calculations so they round down instead of up. So an enemy with 1 shield will still have 1 shield, while an enemy with 3 will have 4 instead of 5.
Let me know if anything is too hard or too easy! I can easily finetune encounters to be harder or easier and update the mod. I can also edit player abilities if a super overpowered strategy exists. I'm currently playtesting the mod myself, just finished chapter 1 for each character. Feels great so far.
