This modification primarily increases, rearranges and improves enemy rank formations. It integrates enemies from ALL DLCs more naturally into your overall campaign rather than having most of them reclused in one zone. They are assigned new (and rare) groupings based on the dungeons they are spawned in and respect the original atmosphere of each location.

Additionally, small and very careful adjustments have been made to Darkest & Bloodmoon difficulty. These changes only affect a single file, and it is intended that Darkest Dungeon Tactics be as compatible as possible with other mods. (no changes were made to items, heroes or monsters)

Stronger enemy types are more frequent, and enemy party formations are more cunning than ever. Vanilla formations that included 4 rapid dogs or just 3 maggots have been changed or mixed with other enemy types in the area. Most fights are at least 4 v 4, and it is on the player to carefully manage and outlast the enemy.

Enemies from the Courtyard are also introduced into the default dungeons, albeit at a very low chance. This means that your heroes may get the Crimson Curse without having started the DLC. This changes up the pacing of the campaign. However, none of the infestation's effects or the fanatic's arrival will begin until you actually do the Crimson Court so that delaying the DLC remains an option.

Snakes from the ShieldBreaker DLC can also have new appearances in revised formations. The same goes for Farmstead enemies. No longer are these enemies isolated. They are now aligned with the corresponding dungeon's denizens but are rarely encountered.

Finally, select enemies from the Darkest Dungeon can now make rare appearances in all champion level dungeons. This gives a sense of the growing power and perversion coming from the estate.


If you are a veteran player who probably got every enemy formation memorised and are looking for more challenging enemy compositions to shake things up, this mod is for you.

If you want a more challenging experience without deviating too far from how the game was originally designed, this mod is for you.

If you want a difficulty mod that is simply plug and play, this mod is for you.


Default Radiant Mode grants a dodge bonus to the heroes at certain torch values. This has been removed. In addition, the player's critical scouting is halved. Changes & improvements in enemy formations apply.

Now inherits the stress changes, torch adjustments, trap difficulty and increased monster critical chance as applied by default Bloodmoon difficulty. The player's critical scouting is halved and the base scouting chance is reduced from 25% to 20%, making dungeons more unpredictable. Changes & improvements in enemy formations apply.

Same as vanilla, but the increase in Monster HP has changed from +20% (Default) to +30% (New). This change is fairly minor, but puts certain monsters out of the range of one shot moves. The time and hero limit has also been REMOVED. Furthermore, camping only restores 75% of the torch rather than 100%. Scouting changes are same as the modified Darkest difficulty. Changes & improvements in enemy formations apply.

< Torch Level 75+ >

Hero Bonus Critical Chance: 1 - > 0
Hero Surprised: 15 -> 5

< Torch Level 0 – 25 >
Monster Bonus Accuracy: 10 -> 12.5

Hero Bonus Critical Chance: 2.5 - > 0
Hero Surprised: 25 -> 7.5

These edits are designed to be subtle, and not overbearing. The torch level has a more prominent impact at all levels and the player no longer gains certain advantages that can be exploitable.

Notably, scouting and suprising enemies are less affected by light levels, but in return, the player is less likely to be surprised in the dark.

Also, monsters are consistently (and progressively) dangerous at all but the highest torch level rather than suddenly receiving a huge damage buff when your torch hits 0 to 25


Most enemy parties with 2 - 3 monsters have been increased to the maximum of 4. No changes to bosses, minibosses or specific monsters.

Enemy dungeon formations have been made more cunning and varied in all locations except the Farmstead.

The tutorial dungeon formations (the first dungeon after the hamlet) have been made easier to ease the rough start.

Common enemies like bandits, ghouls and others will now sometimes be grouped with the natural denizens of the dungeon. However, you will NEVER see Weald creatures appearing in Ruins etc. This respects the design of the original dungeons.

Larger sized monsters now show up more regularly in a number of new formations you probably don't expect. Care has been taken in their deployment so that they are still fairly rare. Fights with such champions are more likely to occur in room encounters and champion dungeons.

Crimson Court enemies will make an appearance regardless of whether you have started the DLC. They are present in all vanilla dungeons (except darkest) as very rare encounters and are mixed with the local denizens. Particularly, the more elite vampires which by default are confined to the Court itself, can now show up in Veteran / Champion dungeons.

The Crimson Court regular missions will now also have certain undead units in their ranks. Bear that in mind when preparing for it. The scripted missions will now also have most of its composition line maxed out, with greater variety and a few subtle tweaks.

Crimson court enemies that show up during the infestation will now spawn alongside the creatures of that dungeon. You will no longer run into fights that are entirely composed of bloodsuckers.

Farmstead and Shield Breaker enemies can spawn in all dungeons at very low chances. They will mingle with the dungeon's spawns in new positions and arrangements.

The elite units from the Darkest Dungeon can show up in Champion dungeons at a very low chance. If they do appear, they should only show up in more forgiving compositions.


Won't work with any mods that changes your maximum quirk(s), adjust torch levels or difficulty settings as all these changes are located within one file that this mod makes changes to.

Mods that add trinkets, heroes, dungeons, skins, rework of boss tactics or monster adjustments should be fine as this mod makes no direct changes to them.

Mods that adjust dungeon mashes are incompatible.
