Balance? Never heard of it.
Ok... I was legit having a lot of fun with this mod, but what is the balancing for these bosses? Answer, there is none, at least from what i can tell. Most of the bosses lock you in a box and have WAY too much health and defense for WHEN you unlock them in the game as a choice boss. Their attacks are mostly bullet hells with the occasional "move over here" ones, they all have a get hit die INSTANTLY attack, and to make things worse, when or IF you ever beat the bosses, you are rewarded with GARBAGE that is weaker and less useful than what you most likely are already fighting them with. So what even is the point in fighting them if the fight isn't fun, the payoff isn't good, and the progression just leads you back into the cycle of pain as the boss YOU JUST BEAT... also, as an example of this, ink witch... she has MORE HEALTH THAN THE MOONLORD, and ur supposed to fight her post mechanical bosses... H O W?! I was really having fun with the mod up until hardmode, where it seems the scaling for difficulty and reward DROPPED OFF A CLIFF... the items, references, and mechanics are fun, but they alone cannot save the mod from its horrible progression system. needless to say, I won't be touching this mod again until some balancing and reworking fixes these blatant issues. Because I'd rather keep what I have left of my sanity than run through that gauntlet of disappointment again. Please, genuinely, re-balance this mod.

I didnt have an issue beating the bosses with the equipment provided in master mode
I also had no problems with bosses, but I play with Fargo's mods on expert.
The only unpleasant feature is that bosses can sometimes throw you outside the box, where there are blocks. For example in the neon arena

i agree, but the other way around. i used the bubble gun from duke fishron since i killed him like the moment i got into hard mode, and i kinda went crazy on every boss. but i noticed that almost EVERY weapon i got, until the second to last final boss, was actually WEAKER than said bubble gun. duke fishron my glorious king

Sanity? What's that?
Honestly yeah standing with the others I think the bosses are pretty balanced so long as you use all your resources properly and get used to dodging. Nothing wrong with having a hard time and this is modded so you should look through the mods out there to see if there's anything you can do to make easier for you to get used it.
I think you might have a bit of a skill issue bro...
