### Balance
- Early game stays close to vanilla
- Difficulty ramps more gradually and more cleanly over long-term worlds
- Improved mobs, effects, variants, armor, and weapons are rarer in early progression
- Late game and night encounters become noticeably more dangerous without changing core vanilla survival systems

### Boss Scaling
- Ender Dragon and Wither gain bonus health and damage on each new respawn
- Boss scaling is capped and configurable
- Boss progression is saved per world

### Notes
- Designed for NeoForge
