RiskRefined2
A Modpack with many QoL improvements and some additions such as Starstorm2. Fully multiplayer compatible.RiskRefined2
...is a carefully curated Modpack for Risk of Rain 2 focused primarily on bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements. Beyond that, it offers thoughtful rebalances for multiple survivors and items, as well as new mechanics, items, survivors, and events.
Installation:
I recommend using r2modman or GaleModManager for easier installation.
When installing for the first time or upgrading to a new version of the modpack, create a new profile and install it in that new profile.
You can disable or uninstall the BetterCommandArtifact mod if you like hacks.
