I’ve been doing dino balance in my mod Statera Vis as well. My initial effort was in support of my mod having multiple levels of tranquilizer round, and making it so taming something like a Rex would NEED that higher caliber tranq round.
I also re-balanced the dinos based on ‘size class’ so that the larger dinos are a lot tougher, and harder to bring down and then get even moreso with levels so that a level 1 rex is peanuts when compared to a level 50. I made the damage boost that dinos got vs. other dinos when tamed baseline to apply to wild dinos as well (with a tweak to make the carnivores more dangerous). I still plan to do another rebalance pass soon as I’m never happy with my work.
