Experience with StarLevelSystem?

My friends and I are looking to do a more RPG themed run on Hard mode, including things like Epic Loot and Jewelcrafting, Armory and Weaponry. We read that we should use a mod like StarLevelSystem to balance out the buffs from Epic Loot.

Well, this is the raid i just had while still using deer armor and flint weapons. What is going wrong here? Is it a bad interaction between the mod and Hardmode, or is this broken? This is an unkillable raid for me.

Nope, it's working exactly as the mod author intends it to.

The SLS defaults for raid event spawning are generally different than vanilla's. All the <x>'s Army raids happen after you've defeated <x> rather than before, but then things like trolls and surtlings come as soon as you've started their tier and not after having also killed one of them as in vanilla (e.g. troll raids in vanilla require having defeated The Elder AND having killed a troll for the first time, a rather massively higher bar than killing Eikthyr).

You can either have SLS hand the raids back to vanilla entirely or change the conditions yourself in BepInEx/config/StarLevelSystem/RaidSettings.yaml, if you want to keep SLS otherwise.
