Wrath of the Giants!

Description
Are you a masochist in DST too? Check this out! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=945303682

Are you starting to feel too comfortable in that forested island of yours? Do you think you need a challenge to hinder you from being the top of the food chain? Cry no more! From the same crazy mind that gave you the "Re-Buff the Quacken!" mod, I give you another mod that strengthens the big baddies of the forest world to give you more pain! Keep reading to be warned about how deadly the bosses have become in this mod!
Treeguard:

Photosynthesis - Battling a treeguard during the day may take a while; After all, they regenerate health from sunlight!

Shake the Earth - Treeguards will cause little shockwaves with each stomp!

Striking Splinters - Watch out whenever a treeguard shifts to a (more convincing) tree: It might surprise you!

Dancing Tree - Whenever a treeguard starts dancing, watch out! Shadow roots will emerge all over the ground and attack anything nearby!

Spider Queen:

Spitter Queen - A spider queen can shoot web projectiles at distant targets, similar to spider spitters!

Web Ooze - A spider queen leaves web creep around her wherever she goes!

Silk Armor - A spider queen now absorbs 80% of damage, but her silk armor weakens the more you attack her.

Army Killer - A spider queen can attack multiple targets now, just like other giants!

Strength in Numbers - A Spider queen will move and attack faster with the more children she has! Don't get overwhelmed!

Fruitful - A spider queen will give birth twice as fast, and when she gives birth, if it's not a warrior that emerges, then she'll give birth to twins!

Full Grown - When a spider queen plants herself into the earth, she'll be a full-grown spider den!


Deerclops:

Near and Far - The Deerclops ain't gonna let you dodge that easily! Its range now extends to its fingertips, but now Deerclops takes longer to attack.

Stabbed from Beneath - The little glaciers that rise from the ground now deal a small amount of damage.

Barricade - Some of the little glaciers Deerclops creates may be mini glaciers that function as obstacles for you kiters! Plus, the mini glaciers, as well as any nearby ice on the ground, will damage anyone close to them when Deerclops does his new attack, which is...

Hellraiser - The Deerclops's new ability: raising giant icicles from the ground! Very powerful and a little unpredictable, it's best to be careful for when the Deerclops might use it!

Cold Hearted - The Deerclops is now immune to freezing! It doesn't just control ice, it IS ice! Deerclops even has a chilly aura! Better keep warm when facing it!


Moose:

My Wings... - The Moose can conjure up a hurricane to deal damage! Easy to dodge, however.

Mighty Antlers - The Moose can finally hit multiple creatures at once! We'll need more than pigs to take her down!

Feather Cushioning - The Moose's size isn't just for show! She now absorbs 1/5 of melee damage!

Storm Honk - The Moose's honk now starts a storm AND summons her egg! Watch out for Mosslings!

Lightning Strong - The Moose's strikes now zap players! BZZZZT!

The Walking Storm - The Moose and her babies are now immune to lightning and tornadoes! You can't use their weather against them!

Ride the Lightning - The Moose egg can now hatch from a lightning strike! It'll even try to attract lightning toward it!

Protective - Mosslings that have a mother will attempt to assist her in battle when she is attacked. The Moose will never leave her children behind as well. What a loving family!


Dragonfly:

Furiously Fast - The Dragonfly is slightly faster when upset. Keep away, keep away!

Here and There - As a pest, the Dragonfly won't stay still! She'll now attempt to kite you, so be extra careful fighting against her!

In Soviet Russia... - The Dragonfly will now try to stomp you more often, rather than waiting to flinch to do so. Don't get squashed like a bug!

[REDACTED] (NO LONGER A FEATURE) Explosion-Proof - The Dragonfly will no longer take damage from explosions! Quit playing cheap!

Field of Fire - The Dragonfly will spread fire whenever she stomps or punches. Getting hot in here, huh?

Pyro - The Dragonfly will now occasionally spit out an explosion that'll hurt quite a bit!


Bearger:

Thick Hide - The Bearger's fur (and fat) give it a greater resistance to ice!

Tough Skin - The Bearger's thick body allows it to absorb 1/4 of any melee damage! A spear is a twig to it now!

Fearless Hatred - The Bearger will no longer flinch when attacked!

Unpredictable - Bearger's attack delays are now randomized! Risk dealing damage at the cost of a hit, or keep your distance?

Bulldozer - After ground pounding, the Bearger will now "dig" under the earth and attempt to send you flying! Get caught off guard, and you'll receive massive damage!

Deadweight - When the Bearger lands on the ground during its death animation, it'll shake the earth with one last ground pound! Don't celebrate too early!


Ancient Guardian:

Peek-a-Boo - The nightmares have given the Ancient Guardian *insane* abilities! He can now teleport like crazy while running to surprise you! Will he appear in front of you?

Shielded by Evil - The nightmares have given the Ancient Guardian the ability to create a forcefield around himself when attacked. Thankfully, it doesn't last long.

A Guardian's Guardians - Whenever the Ancient Guardian teleports, a damaged clockwork may spawn in his previous spot, and help defeat his target!

Nightmare-Fueled - During the nightmare phase of the ruins, the Ancient Guardian becomes so powerful, he's near unstoppable!


So survivalists, are you brave (or masochistic) enough to challenge these stronger-than-marble enemies? If you are, don't come crying to me when you find out that the forest beasts have no mercy!


IF YOU HAVE SHIPWRECKED: All giants have been made immune to poison to make the mod Reign of Giants compatible.

SIDE NOTE: This mod is not completely finished, and I plan to add and change a few things.

(also make certain bosses like bearger and dragon fly actually give good items id also be happy to give more suggestions or ideas for them if you say yes)

very good mod but every challenge needs a reward. i don't know the capability's of modding in this game but. for every boss they drop a special new item for example deerclops could drop a item like deerclops fur that gives you total immunity to cold. just a idea

Will there ever be a mod for the hamlet bosses?
Lexford  [author] 18 Jan, 2024 @ 6:46pm 
@AlexBC Why, thank you very much! I'm happy to hear that you're enjoying my mod! The seasonal giants will pose their own formidable gimmicks, so a different approach will be needed for each! (beware the Dragonfly in particular!)

And if YOU have ever wanted to play as a "giant", try out my character mod, The Liar Princess and The Blind Prince, based on the game of the same name! I'm very proud of this character mod! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2075517091

This mod is so damn cool! I haven't gotten to any of the giants yet but the changes you made to the Treeguard are so damn cool! The shadow tentacle attack + pine needles attack make the fight a little more dynamic and it caught me off guard even after reading the mod description! It made the fight fun and for that I applaud you :steamthumbsup:! I can't wait to see how much fun the rest of the giants are now!

@Iron Skin Battler
Thank you for pointing this out, I'll be sure to patch this up as soon as I can!

meteor.zip and meteor_shadow.zip cause bug "meteor and meteor shadow image don't display" on Shipwrecked when volcano happen. Remove two file fixed the bug. And I think don't starve already include those file so no need add it to mod.

@八卦炉中逃大圣 When I originally made this mod, it was mainly for players who just wanted to a bigger, more engaging fight, and back then, I did consider the exlusive boss drops as enough of a reward. Thanks to your feedback though, I am considering some more nice loot drops and ways to exploit other goodies from some of these bosses! I'll be sure to adjust some lootables whenever I have time to get back to this mod!

with harder challenges, there should be better awards (such as gems and more drops). considering the INSANE difficulty of this mod, awards might be INSANE better as well.

OK,thank you.I have played the mod you said.Only problem is it replace the main menu music(only my thought maybe),I know HAM main menu music is not so...good?But I use mod to show vanilla music,so I hope this can be an option.
