README

This is a collection of mods which set the main "universal" scaling constant to match either BL1, BL2, or TPS (depending on which you choose).

The default scaling factors for the various Borderlands games are:

• BL1: 1.045 or thereabouts, though BL1 doesn't have a single scaling factor, so it's more difficult to reduce it to a single number.
• BL2: 1.13
• TPS: 1.1
• BL3: 1.09

Note that these scaling values interact oddly with Mayhem Mode, and values above 1.09 actually make Mayhem levels easier due to how the math works out. Use a lower scaling value if you want harder Mayhem play.

Description (from inside mod)

Updates the universal scaling constant from BL3's default of 1.09 to match
BL1's 1.045 (approximately; BL1 scaling is a bit weird)

(NOTE: These scaling vars don't play intuitively with Mayhem levels.  Anything
above the default 1.09 will end up making the game quite a bit easier in higher
Mayhem levels, so you'd actually want to *reduce* the scaling to make Mayhem
harder.)
