Detailed Mechanics

There is a level associated with all enemies. Level is determined by the dimension, biome, position, nearby player difficulty, and entity type. As the level becomes higher, mobs have higher health and deal higher damage, and higher chance to have strong traits. There is a difficulty level assigned to chunk sections and players. Killing mobs to gain chunk and player difficulty, and die to lose player difficulty. Use Hostility Detector to know about current difficulty, use Hostility Orb to make a chunk section permanently not spawning mobs with level.
