suggestion: make the armor of the enemies configurable, there are bosses that have way too much armor, making azazel literally a pain to play, while doable with any character, azazel depends on his big burst due his lack of range
you give 6 full brmistones with 13 damage, and a boss from depths for example: barely reach half of the health yet
i found it being balanced on final bosses, but there are some bosses that simply get A LOT TANKIER, making burst items useless to keep up damage

So @TheRevardexs, Lost and Forgotten's Rep port came out a week ago (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3440586497) . Do you still want to add BAE compatibility support for it (as well as any of the other mods I mentioned as recommendations a few months ago)? Also, would you like to send me a friend request on Steam or Discord (if you're on the latter that is, my Discord username is reesespieces2100) to talk about this in depth more (including the enemies from Exodus getting armor too)? Plus, it's nice that there's even support for Battle Fantasy and Repentance Boss Champions (both of which are not listed here)

I hope to see the light version support more mods

@Molten Sh4dow, the entity files have to be changed manually.
The file path for the mod_entity_files folder is:
Steam\steamapps\common\The Binding of Isaac Rebirth\mods\boss_armor_expanded_3028565499\mod_entity_files
Each sub-folder inside contains instructions on which file to replace.

do i have to do anything with the files to get it to work with the listed mods above or does it work automatically?

(Note: For the latter five as well as Lost and Forgotten, make sure to include these in the bosses only edition of BAE too. Here’s the link to GA: (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2548296941) , and much like the Rep port of L&F, Forgotten Fables is an upcoming mod, but this is an original Repentance mod, just to let you know what FoFa is). Lastly, just take it slow and steady for each of these mods individually, and don’t forget to have fun while you’re doing it!

Thanks for adding Boss Armor Expanded support for Community Remix @TheRevardexs! I just figured it deserved to since CR has plenty of enemies in it and that all the other AB+ DLC mods that have been ported to Rep (Revelations, Fiend Folio, Retribution, Ipecac Community and Deliverance) already have BAE support. Same thing with Lost and Forgotten once its Rep port comes out in the future. Anyways, here’s some more popular enemy and boss mods that you can add BAE compatibility to: Hardmode Major Boss Patterns (since BAE already supports Repentance Eternal Edition and Improved & Reworked Foes), SinsJr, Gutworm, Guwah Greatures (FF already has some, but currently not all, GG enemies in it, but the two mods can work together as the ones that got added in FF actually have different entity IDs separate from their GG counterparts), The Binding of Steve, Rebekah: The Curse and the Heartbroken, Reverie: Touhou Combinations, Godmode Achieved and Forgotten Fables

Hey @TheRevardexs, can you add compatibility with Community Remix and Lost and Forgotten (once the Repentance port of the latter is released)?
explodingturtles456 Aug 4, 2024 @ 7:54pm 
@TheRevardexs Pretty much all of them you made, my pack I play with is crazy
TheRevardexs  [author] Aug 4, 2024 @ 7:15pm 
@explodingturtles456, what mods do you need entities2.xml files for? They are pretty simple to edit, just need to add a shieldStrength value to the entities. I'll add a folder for entity files to the lite version, some of the listed mods only add bosses so I can add those straight away.
explodingturtles456 Aug 4, 2024 @ 6:48pm 
@TheRevardexs I wonder how simple it would be to edit them to only effect bosses? (I could do it myself if so)
explodingturtles456 Aug 1, 2024 @ 12:49pm 
@TheRevardexs small question, does the lite version include the mod compat? just would like to know
script May 29, 2024 @ 2:19am 
@TheRevardexs, alright tysm man
TheRevardexs  [author] May 29, 2024 @ 1:06am 
@script, the mods should be compatible, I haven't noticed anything breaking while using them together. Some enemies tweaked by I&RF might lack armor due to using a new entity rather than a vanilla one. I'll tweak the entities2.xml in I&RF and add a folder for it in mod_entity_files once I get home.
script May 29, 2024 @ 12:39am 
any chance for compatibility with I&RF somewhere further down the road? great to have tougher to kill enemies overall, but don't want to choose between this or more unique enemies :sadge:

love this mod. big ups to the creator

This mod is amazing for dead god players, without it's just too easy to become powerful and wipe everything out. I wish repentance's hard mode changes had done something like this instead. Love it :steamthumbsup:

Now i can see all boss attacks, love it

This sounds awful. Thank you so much

hey, i really like this mod, been looking for something like it for a while! if its not too much of an ask, would it be possible to make it work with a few modded bosses? fiend folio stuff comes to mind but other mods like fall from grace, the future, and retribution would be cool also :). thanks again for making the mod!
