Transform your Minecraft experience with progressive, customizable mob scaling that keeps the challenge fresh!
📋 Overview
BuffMobs is a comprehensive mod that intelligently buffs hostile and neutral mobs to provide a more challenging and engaging survival experience. Whether you want tougher early-game encounters or exponentially scaling late-game difficulty, BuffMobs has you covered with its flexible configuration system.
✨ Key Features
🏹 Smart Ranged Combat System
- Ranged mobs (Skeletons, Pillagers, etc.) dynamically switch to melee weapons when players get too close

🌍 Dimension-Specific Scaling
- Configure unique multipliers for different dimensions
- Perfect for modded dimensions - make the Nether truly hellish!
- Independent scaling for health, damage, speed, armor, and more
- Up to 5 configurable dimension slots
📅 Progressive Day Scaling
- Mobs get stronger as your world ages
- Configurable intervals (default: every 7 days)
- Optional chat notifications to track scaling progression
- Maximum scaling caps prevent infinite difficulty spikes
⚔️ Comprehensive Attribute Buffing
- Health Multiplier: Tankier mobs that survive longer
- Damage Multiplier: Hits that actually hurt
- Attack Speed: Faster, more aggressive combat
- Movement Speed: No more slow zombie walks
- Armor & Toughness: Damage reduction for elite encounters
🧪 Potion Effect System

⚙️ Configuration Highlights
Easy Setup: Works out of the box with sensible defaults Highly Customizable: Every feature can be fine-tuned or disabled Performance Friendly: Efficient algorithms with minimal server impact Modpack Ready: Extensive filtering options for mod compatibility
Example Configurations
Hardcore Survival: High multipliers with fast day scaling Balanced Challenge: Moderate buffs with dimension-specific tweaks
Boss Preparation: Dimension-locked extreme scaling for end-game areas PvP Server: Disable harmful effects, focus on attribute scaling
🔧 Technical Details
- Server-Side: Core logic runs server-side for multiplayer compatibility
- Client Effects: Visual effects handled client-side for smooth performance
- Memory Efficient: Uses WeakHashMap caching and optimized tick handling
- Error Resilient: Comprehensive error handling prevents crashes
- Reflection Safe: Careful use of reflection with fallback mechanisms
