Howdy! I’m going to play Witcher 3 again, I had fun with it for a little bit a few years ago but fell off. The main reason I fell off: the hardest difficulty was just… tedious.
I really enjoy the lethality of the difficulty, it felt like even basic monsters had to be respected, and I have to use every tool in my arsenal smartly to survive. What I didn’t enjoy was the massively inflated health pools, especially when fighting bosses. It turned what should be a tense and skillful engagement into 10+ minutes of dodge, dodge, hit them for 0.5% of their HP, repeat.
I’d like to know if anyone has any mod recommendations to be able to keep the lethality and high stakes, but lower the HP so I don’t fall asleep every combat. Thank you!
Hello myself! I did some more searching, and I found a mod called Enemy Scaling that has what I want! You can directly modify enemy health values, by category even (so I can ramp down boss healths more than regular mobs or w/e). Got it installed, and going to test playing it tonight. Wanted to post my find for anyone else who finds this thread
