Godly Vampirism
by maxanier
Godly Vampirism is a small server-side addon that changes the default values of the Vampirism mod's configuration, so vampires and hunters get different balance without any new content.
What it does
The addon only edits Vampirism's configuration. Blood consumption is significantly lower, sun damage and its nausea effect are reduced, and the yellow sun indicator is smaller. Each level grants vampires double the skill points, and lords gain the ability to command two minions for every level they reach, while fire damage rises by a near-doubling amount. Abilities for both vampires and hunters are enhanced, and vampires teleport further and more often.
The changes apply only to new worlds. Existing worlds can be updated with the command run godly-vampirism apply admin in singleplayer. Because the mod affects only the server side, a client does not need it. Its default values can still be overridden in Vampirism's configuration, since the addon touches only defaults. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and files exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 on Forge and NeoForge.
