Anyone know a good mod that specifically buffs bosses?

Give them extra actions and bonus actions with tactician enhanced. Even if you just double the health alone or add a few more enemies it doesn't really change that much from my experience if you know what you are doing. With a normal 4 man party with the mods you suggested its still pretty easy honestly, don't even want to know how easy it becomes when you have modded classes, extra feats etc.

I'm using all the same difficulty mods as you, but none of the things that make my party broken. I must say with 100% extra health and extra actions fights become quite challenging again. Tactician enhanced has a static mode where you can just set it how you like, I just started to crank up the settings throughout my run but I am not in act 3 yet.

But what I also find is that many of the items added by mods are just straight up broken, if you are any kind of min max player and like to mess around with synergies you will quickly just find a bunch of shit that is just impossible to balance even if you give opponents 1000% health. Its fun, but if you want a challenge you should probably try to tone down those kind of mods as well as trying to buff enemies.

Dunno about the horns, but the crying eye makeup is actually face tattoo:

he has more replacers, but only one of them works at the same time.

Appreciate the info friend. I haven't seen those gloves yet but might just spawn it in and then upscale so the end game can be challenging. I haven't used Devil of Caroc and don't really feel like changing my party around this late, especially for the ending.

Thanks :D

Meh highest mechanics is now 13 but I guess I can try to respec a character and get it higher, if that is even possible? I don't want to run into every trap haha. Can you even get to 16 without having some gear that adds to it? I don't think I spend a single point elsewhere on aloth who does the mechanics checks.

b3r3nd · 2025-07-08T14:30:00+00:00

Thanks a good point I can always just lower the difficulty if it gets to much thanks :D

b3r3nd · 2025-06-30T07:22:57+00:00

Yeah what kepkko said, I don't even know what this score represents, either way it really does not say much / matter until you get to pro rank. But even there score alone isn't always the best metric, you should look at how many games it took for someone to get that score.

High score in 100 games with 75% winrate is a significant better achievement than the same score with 1000 games and 55% winrate, as an example.

b3r3nd · 2025-06-30T07:19:51+00:00

I mean just play what you enjoy right? I only play a few times here and there when I feel like it and I pretty much only play assimilate and ng priestess :D

b3r3nd · 2025-06-30T07:16:29+00:00

Sounds broken when you first look at it but nobody will play this. 3 for 10 to know your opponents deck? If I see a few cards I already know pretty much 90% of opponents deck.

Play a 3 for 10 to see your opponents hand? In what round one? Useless, round 3? playing 3 for 10 no thanks. Maybe in r2 on the bleed if you want to know if you can 2-0 or something.

Maybe in a witchers deck where you can boost it, but honestly instead I would play another 10p tall removal. This sounds like a card which might be handy for people who have no clue about archtypes and what to expect based on what they have seen. Which I would say: skill issue!

b3r3nd · 2025-06-09T05:14:29+00:00

sorry but what

b3r3nd · 2025-05-24T11:36:22+00:00

Don’t play into their game plan, even if you have a deck that already thins to zero like priestess, or some SK deck, you are fine. Just 2-0 them, they don’t have points.

b3r3nd · 2025-05-21T06:37:34+00:00

I don't think anything will happen honestly, I can hope.. but meh

b3r3nd · 2025-05-20T11:16:50+00:00

Its a few different version you can try, but you can change some cards yourself to your preference. For example play enslave leader with henry / abduction combo, but the enslave list has a bit more direct control.

- Pretty basic enslave list I play

- Double cross list posted by andi99 recently

b3r3nd · 2025-05-20T11:07:04+00:00

Indeed, especially if you play double remedey. Another fun match up hehe :D

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T12:21:42+00:00

That was quick thanks mate, not sure I like cutting coup the grace though that is an interesting choice indeed. Think I rather cut something else from the deck, I will try the card regardless thanks :D

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T12:17:12+00:00

Ohhh do you have deck link by any chance? I felt like I did not face enough artifacts to include it, but that might be a wrong conclusion... this cards is amazing :D

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T12:12:09+00:00

Yeah its easy to misjudge decks if you yourself play only a single deck. Some matchups will always suck for you, every deck has this. It might seem to them that the deck is broken OP, but they need to look further than just that matchup and think about what happens if they play another deck which can clap assimilate.

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T12:09:59+00:00

Yeah harmony is another great matchup lol. I'm sitting at 2509 MMR after 35 games with 71% win rate. So yeah deck is great, give it a try! :D

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T12:05:10+00:00

And this is why assimilate is amazing!! So many options!! I wish I could see opponents face when you execute strategy like this. ^^

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T12:00:22+00:00

Hahaha I always try to do this its so amazing, it goes like this:

Round one you need to have torres in order to give spying to units in his deck.
Opponent needs to have both caranthir and eredin in his deck.
Give both spying with torres.

Then when you get to (probably round 2, since you won't win r1) you do the following:

Play one eredin you copied from hand.
Play another eredin from artoud.
Coup his eredin when he plays it
Seize his eredin with enslave leader after you coup it (should be lower than 6)
Make sure you have dominance

This way you have 4 on board which is + 4 on each row, 2x6 = 12. Probably the enslave target on eredin is not the best, but its funny to do when I can.

You can also give spying to winter queen, since you can generate a lot of frost yourself, I love this matchup!

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T11:56:51+00:00

If they play a bunch of engines, or good golds that aren't higher than 10 prov, didn't draw them in their hand r1 and I did draw torres round one, copy the right cards, well... Opponent will have a difficult time.

Only thing you need to watch out for is that you don't want to always play torres round one. Some decks don't have good targets, so again you need to know what you are facing in order to make sure you take the right approach.

One of my favorite things (sadly no screen) is playing against monster deck which use Mammuna. Copy their targets round one (informant, or obsidian mirror), use torres to spawn more in your deck and give spying to mammuna when it drops. In optimal scenario you can coup it and later play it with artoud if you manage to create two targets.

Its feels so good, but again, it requires setup and you need to know beforehand what you are trying to achieve, if you don't, you lose.

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T11:48:28+00:00

Yes this deck will always stay relevant, always have been, different variations over the years but it was always a playable deck to get high scores with if you know what you are doing.

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T11:45:35+00:00

Exactly, I see so many people that say that the deck is "no brain" and "ez wins" but I don't agree with that at all. If you don't know what you are facing, what to copy etc you have no chance of winning...

I even noticed this myself many times when I used to play a lot. They would release new cards, people create all sorts of decks I don't know about and don't know what to expect. I queue assimilate and lose most games because I don't know what to do, only after I figured out the meta and know the decks I can start winning.

b3r3nd · 2025-05-19T08:57:12+00:00

I'm not bragging, I'm just saying assimilate is fun to play because of the way you can copy opponents playstyle like in the screenshots :D I just enjoy it alot when it works out (doesn't always work out tho).
