Steal From Shops (Hard Mode Add On)
STEAL FROM SHOPS IS A HARD REQUIREMENT! THIS MOD WILL NOT WORK OTHERWISE!
In addition, it seems like this mod can be enabled/disabled mid-run, but I would not recommend it.
Welcome to the hard mode add on for Steal From Shops! I originally was making this for myself, but I figured some other people would like it. This mod is aimed for players who think that the fight is still a little too easy in the base mod. As a result, this mod does not change anything that isn’t fight related, like the increased prices and the way shops behave after you’ve stolen. It only affects the fights, but I gotta tell you, as a user of this mod myself, this hard mode add on really adds another level of difficulty!
Okay, so what does this actually do?
Shopkeeper resilience buffs:
Armor has been increased to 25 from 10.
BaseHP has been increased to 100 from 70.
StageHP has been increased to 30 from 20.
This creates a moderately longer fight with the shopkeeper, which should enable him to fight back better.
Number of shopkeepers spawned buff:
The baseline amount of shopkeepers that will spawn when you first steal has been increased. 1 additional shopkeeper will spawn if you steal.
(Basement: 2 from 1, Caves: 2 from 1, Depths and beyond: 3 from 2)
Secret shopkeeper cap interaction:
In the base mod, there can only ever be 3 shopkeepers spawned at a time to prevent being too excessive. This cap still remains, but what happens if you go over it has been changed. Let’s just say, the GREEDIER you get, the worse the fights will get.
And that should be about it! Believe it or not, this really makes the fights a lot more intense in my opinion, which is good since you are STEALING!
Required DLC:
