Extended Mod Description

Multiplayer experience for those who are well beyond Platinum level. This is next step from Diamond difficulty and is inspired by this mod.

Each wave has up to 16 enemies. And aggressive enemies increased to 5 from 2.

Final Difficulty mod also tries to tweak certain abilities and powers mostly to keep close range characters viable, such as unique melee attacks or powers that can only be used from few meters. Buffs to drone, sentry and decoy are also applied.

Powers affected:
Annihilation field, Biotic Charge, Biotic Hammer, Biotic Sphere, Dark Sphere, Nova, Smash, Seeker Spawn, Electric Hammer, Havok Strike, Sabotage, Shadow Strike

Gold level has bosses boosted, while other enemies are pretty much same. Also 16 enemies total count affects all levels not just platinum.
