Difficulty/health scaling for Multiplayer

[Hoick]

I'm getting mixed information about the scaling and difficulty when you play with people. I've read that the health scales only once, so the health doesn't increase from 2-4 players. Another said the health scales up to third, but difficulty increases with each player joined. What is the correct information?

1 player: 1.0x scaling
2 player: ~2.6x scaling
3 player: ~2.6x scaling
4 player: ~2.6x scaling

from what i understand.

SEE LOL Two different information.

The former.

There is no "scaling" per player. There is only "solo" health and "multiplayer" health. A third or fourth player doesn't change the health at all, and it won't scale back down if you get punted back to solo.

Health is the only thing that changes. Beyond the monster now juggling multiple targets, everything else is unchanged and works exactly the same in solo as it does in MP.

It's about 2.2x, not 2.6. It varies a little depending on the monster.

With the target juggling, there's a mantle that makes the monster target you.

But sharpening also does the trick B)

Yes there is. And it also gets destroyed when you get hit. So the dream of being a 'tank' is dead.

There is also the part damage is raised x8. Supposedly, I can confirm that 2.2 float is used via Cheat Engine to scale the monster's current HP.
