About this mod Author’s original text

EarlyAccessBulletsponge

Buffs enemy HP on a per-tier basis, with configurable buff multipliers and body blacklist.

Tiers

  • Trash (=140HP, 140)
  • Golem (>=480HP)
  • +25% HP
  • This matches old Bison/Beetle Guard health (was nerfed from 600 -> 480)
  • Champion (Bosses)
  • +50% HP
  • This roughly represents how much average survivor DPS has increased across the board compared to the original Early Access release.
  • Debatably this could be even higher, but would end up punishing lower-end survivors too much.

Blacklist

  • Final Bosses
  • Mithrix
  • False Son
  • Voidling
  • Judgeman
  • Lunar
  • Lunar Golem
  • Lunar Wisp
  • Lunar Exploder
  • Void
  • Void Barnacle
  • Void Reaver
  • Void Jailer
  • Others
  • Grandparent
  • Gup/Geep/Gip
  • Greater Wisp
  • Archaic Wisp
  • Young Vagrant
  • Brass Contraption
  • Stone Gigas
  • Halcyonite
  • Scorchling
  • All drones.
  • All survivors.
  • Including Engi Turrets.
  • But maybe modded minion summoners might need to be added to the list.
  • All projectiles.
  • All masterless entities.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
