@Wespy Yes, but there's a caveat: Placing on your own world the "tentacleboss" dungeon or any stagehand added by the mod is likely to cause issues.

Hi, can this mod be freely uninstalled?

I'll have to check out this mod again, see if that music replacer I had eons ago works or not. Maybe I did it wrong, I was a bit dumb when I was younger. I'll try that reverter mod again.

Ah, nice, I didn't notice there was a distinction ... that NPC refers to humanoids in particular. Okay, I'll try them out together.

@Rotaerk Should be, given that it only affects NPCs and not monsters.

Is this also incompatible with the NPC-only version of Supper's Combat Overhaul? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2596021740

@SpaceCatsFTW I have already made a mod to account for those who use music replacers, which reverts the music back to Forest Battle 2. You can find it here .

hi, some feedback. i would suggest moving the music change to a separate mod in case people use music replacers (like me!)

I just released an update that disables Ruin Overhaul's health override if the Ruin's health is modified by other mods before it loads.

Yup same i was like where's Asra's phase?

@Scarlet flame I might make a patch to this mod at some point to override the Ruin's health only if it has not been modified already (Ruin Overhaul actually decreases the Ruin's health to make the fight a bit less dragged out with vanilla weapons) so that mods like Difficult Ruin can actually affect the Ruin's health. Until then (or if the change is not enough), I recommend simply using a weaker setup, which should not be terribly difficult to do.

cant you give the mod protection to very damaging weapons?, if you damage the ruin by a lot it skips asras phase entirely at this point im more worried about being weak enough so i can enjoy the entire fight

Very cool, but i need a version of this that multiply the Ruin's HP by 2, 5, or 10 times!
As i put mods that turn the game truly OP as well.

is there a way to make the Ruin Overhaul mod not load after all the other mods? I've been trying to use a mod that changes the ruin boss fight music but it does not play and the Music Reverter mod doesn't work either.

Thank you for making this mod! Ruin was too easy in the vanilla game and I didn't die to him at all, but I died to THIS ruin once, ONCE! And I was happy to die because of how amazing this is! This is what The Ruin should've been!

@Scarlet flame Unfortunately not. Ruin Overhaul loads after Difficult Ruin, so it overrides any changes Difficult Ruin makes.

Is this compatible with difficult ruin (the mod that changes the ruins health value to 15000)

Holy hell man this makes the Ruin so much harder.
10/10 actually makes the ruin a challenge.

Small preview of what to expect

and by "small preview", I mean the whole damn fight lol

that's what ruin should be like, the previous ruin didn't fit in his characteristic (destroyer)
it's freaking awesome, and the Nox fight is now more challenging, especially those tricks go so quick one can hardly react in time.
Frankly, I return this game after a long time no starbound, I didn't realise I ve sub this mod, but when I reach the final boss fight, I was, at first, questioned, then I was surprised and had a splendid fight and a great experience.
Thank you sir for making such epic fight.

this is the best ruin mod i've ever installed

@VoidEyeGaming Thanks for the advice on ensuring compatibility with Ruin Overhaul.
Have fixed the bug You identified where extra monster spawns would sometimes get stuck in mid air with both mods installed.

@SkylardX @StrangerDanger when combining Ruin Overhaul with the Tougher Mobs mod:
Ruin now has +50% Health (6000 HP). This also increases the chance of allowing the custom Asra Nox miniboss from Ruin Overhaul to spawn in before the end of the mission.

¿Se podría agregar mas HP a este jefe y los demás jefes? sería muy bueno.

Hey, can we get a version of this that has more health? With crazier mod combos, the Ruin dies so fast you can't even see some of the other phases, sometimes you can even skip right over Asra Nox if you go fast enough. Maybe something around 15k for multiplayer purposes or maybe just health scaling?

Can this mod compatible with Dungeons and Encounters: FFS-Ified Vanilla Dungeons? Really love your mod and that one,

@Factionator: Ruin Overhaul uses a custom monster id: ruin-cultistbossend and doesn't conflict with Tougher mobs (in fact, we added a patch not to scale up the boss' health when Ruin Overhaul is installed). She can spawn during the final phase with both mods installed (3/4 tests run earlier).

At the time of writing, it's possible to destroy the overhauled Ruin during the final phase before she has a chance to spawn, depending on where the improved AI is in the attack sequence and their fire power. Chances are this edge-case scenario will be patched soon :)

@Factionator I just made a new discussion for bug reports. Can you post a pastebin link to your log in that discussion please?

Wonderful work man, the boss fight was so much harder. Although it sometime feels like there's too much on the screen to dodge at times. I spent most of the fight dashing and jumping through the air. Only issue I see with it is that I Astra Nox didn't spawn during my fight. Maybe it's an issue with Tougher Mobs?

I Love this! Some of the best fun I've had with new bosses in Starbound. That's to be expected since you made Extended Story, which to this day remains one of the greatest

@tigerfestival1988 Thanks for the mention, and @VoidEyeGaming, thank you for testing your mod with Tougher Mobs. I installed and tested them separately and simultaneously and came to the same conclusions.
Your AI override both Asra Nox (end game) and Ruin, leaving behind only the stat changes and extra loot dropped by the latter. However with both installed, I did notice that Asra Nox in the library used the AI from Tougher Mobs instead (e.g. summoning for reinforcements/having an alternative set of laser kunai dart darts/attack dialogue etc.); though from your public Github comments, I believe that's because Ruin Overhaul overrides the end game variant of her instead

Thanks again for the wonderful experience. I've linked to and recommended your mod through the mod synergies discussion and left you an Upvote 👍

Finally an worthy opponent
Our battle will be legendary!

This mod is awesome. Finally a mod that changes the game and doesnt just add more bloat.

Void i just tried out your mod and i gotta say is the most amazing mod i have experienced in a while. Good. Fucking. Job. You struck gold with this.

Alrighty. I'll install this into my modpack. Thanks for testing it out man.

Update: I can say that it works mostly fine with the Tougher Mobs mod. The Ruin Overhaul mod does use a different monster type for the reworked Asra Nox, so the changes Tougher Mobs makes to her are erased. However, the fight against the Ruin itself does not seem to have any major issues. The only noticeable conflicts are that it doesn't spawn rare mobs at all and the additional minions it spawns appear in midair.

I didn't test it with the Tougher Mobs mod, so I'm not sure.

Is this compatible with tougher npcs mod? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2887613624&searchtext=tougher+npcs The tougher npcs mod also affects the ruin battle.
