A lot of things were modified, you can look at the GitHub project if you want to have a full changelog.

Modify AI of skeletons, zombies, creepers and drowned when the difficulty is too high.

Beta information

This is the first beta of Difficulty Death Scaler 2.0, so the mod could be unstable. You can report issues on GitHub.

The bounty system was not tested.

Fix:

• timer not well displayed
• /difficultydeathscaler set <number of death> does not always the Minecraft difficulty
• difficulty continues to reduce after 0

Perf:

• optimize TimerTask and Timer

Now, you have to use a netherite ingot on the boss to activate the "reduce difficulty mod" (except for the Ender Dragon).

The "reduce difficulty mod" will buff the boss:

• the buffed Wither cannot be blocked in bedrock
• the buffed Warden is faster and cannot be knockbacked
• the buffer Elder Guardian has more health, is faster, is smaller and is stronger

The command /difficultydeathscaler get shows the timer before next reduce.

Add command /difficultydeathscaler
