README

Parry Rebalanced for Very Hard

Restores practical parrying on Very Hard while keeping timing, equipment and character progression meaningful.

Correctly timed parries are evaluated without the world's extra enemy damage multiplier. Damage that gets through still receives the full difficulty multiplier.

Features

  • Removes the extra difficulty damage multiplier from PvE parry checks on Very Hard and Hard without changing the timing required to parry.
  • Keeps shield strength, Blocking skill, food, stamina and enemy stars relevant.
  • Leaves ordinary blocks, PvP and Normal or easier difficulty unchanged.
  • Does not make every attack parryable or guarantee a successful parry.

Requirements

  • BepInEx 5

Installation

Mod manager

Install with r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager, then launch the game using Start modded.

Manual

  1. Install BepInEx 5.
  2. Extract ParryRebalancedForVeryHard.dll from the ZIP's plugins folder into BepInEx/plugins.
  3. Launch the game once to generate the configuration file.

Configuration

Configuration file: BepInEx/config/ScottDark.ParryRebalancedForVeryHard.cfg

Setting Default Description
General.Enabled true Enables the adjusted parry calculations.

Close the game before editing the configuration, then restart to apply changes.

Compatibility

Client-side: install on each player's computer that should use the adjusted parrying. A dedicated server installation should not be necessary; multiplayer has not yet been tested.

Mods that modify blocking, parrying or incoming damage may conflict. Compatibility with other combat mods has not been verified.

Notes

Parries can still fail because of insufficient gear, low stamina, accumulated stagger or powerful enemies. Damage that passes through a parry retains difficulty scaling and can cause additional stagger.

The floating blocked-damage number reflects the adjusted parry calculation.
