⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community-approved with 418 endorsements and over 32k downloads — clearly a popular tweak.
- Simple concept that directly addresses a common complaint about late-game tankiness.
- Configurable settings mean you can dial in exactly the difficulty you want.
👎 Cons
- No install instructions provided by the author — you'll need to figure out the setup yourself.
- Last updated in September 2023 — may not be compatible with the latest game version.
- Only affects player health gain, so if you're looking for broader difficulty changes, this won't cover them.
