Questions about hard mode ?

[nekkernest]

What are the differences between normal and hard aside from just increased enemy damage and decreased yours ?

[Placidusax's Ruin]

In Hard Mode enemies's health/damage/resistance increase, all combat XP halved(though you can still get enough XP through embrace/quest/treating people, expecially the last one, even level 1 disease's XP is equal to 5 enemies in normal mode, and 10 in hard mode). No other differences(Plot,enemy kind/location/numbers,items are all the same). If you are not playing a level 3 run, then hard mode won't be that difficult(Challenging for a level 3 character especially on NOT EVEN ONCE run).

Did you beat the game using level 3 character ? Really impressive if so. Did most high level enemies killed you with on hit , especially bosses late in the game ?

Yes:)I did a level 3 run on normal mode before and a second time on Hard Mode Beta(Not Even Once)

Also beat the last boss with highest level

If you are looking for some challenge, you should definitely try it(some bosses are quite hard for level 3 in hard mode, may drive you crazy haha), though i would recommend try it on your second playthrough. Anyway, hope you enjoy your game~
By the way on hard mode, many boss's move has become lethal for level 3(the forth and fifth boss thus become the hardest except if you want to beat the leech hater close-combat only), but they still have some moves that won't kill you if you are full health.As for minions, don't take torch thrust(level11+), poison(level11+),fire crossbolt(12+), rogue ekon's delay dash,rogue skal's up claws(27+).
