Features
(Your vanilla experience will be further enhanced thanks to these features)
Vanilla mobs can get really easy to defeat, especially in a modded environment where players have equipment and weapons superior to vanilla stats. This mod changes mobs difficulty by making them harder to kill. Each mob has been fine-tuned to feel different based on on-going player feedback. This will make each fight exciting similar to games like Dark Souls where you have to plan each mob fight.
Pehkui is recommended if you want to make the Ender Dragon fight harder (other mobs will work without it).
