Ruthless Mobs

Description
Ruthless Mobs originated as an Addon I created to play with friends. I have updated it over time and it is now in a state to be made available to anyone else who would like to try it! This Addon also contains no scripts, meaning you can invite people playing on different platforms, such as Xbox and PlayStation, to join your world.
The main goal is to increase the challenge of Minecraft through the difficulty of the mobs. Instead of simply giving mobs more damage and HP, Ruthless Mobs mainly focusses on introducing unique behaviours and abilities not present in the Vanilla game, similarly to how the well-known Epic Siege Mod works for Minecraft Java Edition.
Key Features
The changes made by this Addon can be seen below (or keep it hidden for more of a surprise!).
