I am playing on a private server with a friend, and to make the game challenging we put npc dmg to us at 1.4 and npc takign admg from us at 0.4. this works fine for vaults etc. but actually hits us a bit to hard with the maelstrom, it seems much harder then anything else (we dont want to spam thralls, we use 1 thrall each).
So i tried to make it a bit easier with maelstrom settings, the only ones that i found that seems relevant are “Elder thing spawn rate” . However when I changed it from 1 to 0.6 it didnt seem to make them spawn less often, i got the impression it might have made them spawn more often:) (but i might be wrong, its hard to judge in battle)
So a few question, maybe somebody can help:
1-Maybe im wrong from the start and elder things arent what i think they are: My presumption is elder things are all the monsters spawning in the storm yakith, the insect like big things, the ghoul like yellow things and white things and the dragons. Am I right or tottaly wrong?
2- Should i move the values on the slider towards more or less to make them spawn less often?
3- Is it working or maybe there is a known bug or something?
4- Are there maybe other settings that could help me with this?
Thanks
