Nightmare Dragons (Ice and Fire)

This datapack is a hardcore balance tweak designed to change the difficulty and progression of the Ice and Fire: Dragons mod. It makes wild dragons a terrifying threat while keeping tamed ones balanced for survival gameplay.

📊 Mechanical Changes:

  • Max Health Buff: Wild dragons have significantly increased maximum health.
  • Combat Regeneration: If a dragon stops taking damage for 10 seconds, it will regenerate its health back to full.
  • Scarce Breeding (Phase 4-5): Female dragons (Stage 4 and 5) now have a 10% chance to drop a dragon egg. Finding one is now a true legendary milestone.
  • The Taming Nerf: To prevent players from turning these boss-like monsters into overpowered pets, tamed dragons lose all nightmare buffs. Once hatched and tamed, they revert to the standard mod base stats.

⚙️ Compatibility & Installation

  • Type: Datapack / Resourcepack (No visual textures included).
  • Requirement: Requires the original [Ice and Fire: Dragons] mod to function.
  • Perfect for hardcore, RPG, and survival modpacks!
