No Scaling Deep of Night

The intent of this mod is to allow you to experience the Deep of Night features without the added difficulty and to have bosses and maps be more random, making the game feel a bit more varied as you for example can fight base game bosses with the new DLC points of interest and use the Deep of Night only weapon effects.



There are alternative download options which for example allows you to only play Great Hollow maps or have a high chance of any Shifting Earth event.





Mod features:

• 
  
• Deep of Night no longer makes enemies deal more damage and have more health.
  
  

• 
  
• It does not matter what depth you are at, every depth works the same.
  
  

• 
  
• You are able to use deep relics if you want to and you will still be rewarded with deep relics after an expedition is finished.
  
  

• 
  
• DLC and base game map seeds are more equally likely to appear. (Previously DLC maps had a much higher chance to appear.)
  
  

• 
  
• Each Nightlord has an equal chance of showing up. (Except for Maris which also has half the chance in vanilla and I didn't feel like changing that.)
  
  

• 
  
• There is a 20% chance you face an Everdark boss.
