Combat becomes trivial by mid-game due to the fact that armor can’t keep up with weapon damage values, resulting in out-of-control power creep and a feeling of being invincible. Any weapon can defeat any armor type at the moment, and enemies die within a handful of swings regardless of the armor they’re wearing as a result. This is a huge problem, and it needs fixed!
You can actually access the items in the pak files, but I haven’t been unable to successfully change their stats. As a test, I tried nerfing the ridiculously OP Saint George’s sword (which somehow hits harder than a halberd) in the melee weapons file to more realistic levels, but the new values didn’t show up in game.
Maybe you need to do a new game. Either that or maybe set the file to read only?
alote of people are addressing this issue the game simply becomes too easy at mid game. and i heard that they say they might had a hardcore mod
Not sure, others have released mods that edit item stats (like food spoilage) which seem to take effect without needing to start a new game.
Check Nexus, there are already popping up mods to alter combat experience (difficult, lock, …)
