Description:

This mod tries to replicate the behavior of multiple random healthbars introduced in BL3.
Check the collection for addons an textures: Borderlands 3 Custom Healthbars Collection.

Tired of enemies feeling always the same?

With this mod every enemy and group of enemies will offer a new challenge!
With enemies that have more health and different types each time, you better get a new arsenal going.

How it works:
  • Health is not visible while full.
  • Every NPC or Monster can spawn with 1 or more health bars, the chance and combination of healthbars are configurable via patch files.
  • By default there are basic combinations for NPCs and Monsters and custom ones for some specific types.
  • Every healthbar multiplies the max health of the enemy, ie: 2 bars = 2x health, 3 bars = 3x health.
  • Every type (color) of healthbar has different elemental resistances. ( https://borderlands.fandom.com/wiki/Elemental_damage#Borderlands_3 )
  • Bosses have customized health combinations which are also configurable, displays differently than normal via a large bar that depletes from both sides.
  • Added custom "Punchy" functionality, craft a "Punchy Health Type Changer" at a spinning wheel, then use it on punchy to changeit’s health type and test your weapons.
  • It shows every damage an entity takes, ie: Every pellet from a shotgun, instead of calculating the sum of damage.

In-game options:
  • Toggle if the generated bars are random or selected via config.
  • Limit the amount of health bars that an entity can have.
  • Health multiplier, multiplies max health by certain amount. (0.1x – 100x)
  • Difficulty: Dictates how severe are elemental resistances / weaknesses.
  • Toggle if the bosses use random health bars too.
  • Only visual, only enables red-healthbars for display, no element resistances or different types. (Health is still multiplied by selected value)
  • Display numbers, hides damage numbers.
  • Delay, let’s you control how quickly damage numbers are displayed, like vanilla or even for DPS analysis.

Fully customizable:
  • Almost every aspect can be customized via patches:
    • Elemental resistances.
    • Probability and combinations.
    • Specific NPC or monster health types.
    • New health types.
    • Excludable entities.

This mod was based on "Supper’s Follower Healthbars" and "NPC Shields & Bars".

Known incompatibilities:

Uninstalling:

I tried making it easily uninstallable, it shouldn’t cause the death of any NPCs / Monsters, but some may retain their elemental resistances given before uninstalling (Crew members won’t probably keep them).

Notes:
  • There is no hard-coded limit to how many health bars can be given to a single entity, it can get more as long as the game doesn’t crash or the max health amount doesn’t overflow.
