Share Suite

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

The Share Suite mod by FunkFrog-and-Sipondo is the most popular mod available for Risk of Rain 2 as it makes multiplayer much more fair.

Since you cannot share loot between groups, with the first person to grab it being the only one to have it, it can be frustrating if a lobby is being overrun but one player.

This mod “removes the incentive to hoard, letting everyone have everything if they want to.” It can be changed to the player’s liking, ensuring that everything is as fair as possible.

NoBossNoWait

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

This mod is pretty self explanatory. When you defeat all the bosses in the area, the teleporter will charge so that you can leave without having to wait for the game to initiate it after a longer period of time.

Developed by mistername, No Boss No Wait can be very helpful when trying to grind as it removes all the time that Risk of Rain 2 likes to waste.

Empty Chests Be Gone

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

Some of the best Risk of Rain 2 mods are quality of life ones and Elysium’s Empty Chests Be Gone is one of the must installs. So that you’re not wasting time by checking chests that have already been looted, you’ll be able to tell before you even get near.

Any time someone opens a chest or barrel, it will disappear from the game as soon as the animation is over, meaning you won’t have to check every time you see one.

Shops and shrines are exempt though, since they’re easy to work out and don’t cause the same issue.

ScannerPlusOne

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

MagnusMagnuson‘s ScannerPlusOne mod replaces the question marks with ping icons to make everything easier to find and you get a notification in the chat about remaining interactables in the area.

It’s a very customizable mod too, letting you choose what kind of item the game pings automatically, so that you’re not bombarded with stuff you don’t need.

TooManyFriends

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

Too Many Friends is a problem everyone would like to have in real life, but it can be a pain in Risk of Rain 2.

As wildbook‘s description says, you can “Link it to your friends and you can all play together, no more simple excuses.”

The max lobby size in Risk of Rain 2 is four, and this lets you change the size to a max of 16, making it perfect for the group of friends you have.

RogueWisp

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

RogueWisp adds actual new content to the game, rather than making the quality of life better.

It adds a “totally new survivor built entirely from scratch” and a new boss that will appear around stage 8.

The mod’s description describes the new survivor as “a close range caster with very high damage potential but no mobility and limited defensive options,” and you might recognise the boss if you played the first Risk of Rain game.

PlayableAkali

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

Again, PlayableAkali is a simple one. If you’re a League of Legends fans, there’s no doubt that you’ll know Akali.

If you install this mod from Matarra, you’ll be able to play as the excellent character in Risk of Rain 2.

ChestItemPicker

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

This mod from mrarm is kind of cheating. When you open a chest, you can pick what you get somewhat.

It’s not completely up to you though, so you don’t just get the best weapon in the game automatically from the first chest you open. As the mod’s description reads: “The max item rarity is determined randomly, based on the chance that an item of a specified tier can drop from a given chest.”

What is for sure though, is that you’re more likely to get something you want from a chest.

OrderedItems

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

This is the perfect kind of quality of life mod. OrderedItems, from gog909, orders the items you have by tier and ID, making them easy to sort through.

By default, Risk of Rain 2 orders items by when they’re acquired, which makes certain items hard to find.

You can even change the mod so that is orders everything in alphabetical order. Finally, since the mod is clientside, it works in multiplayer games where you’re not host too.

DiluvianDifficulty

Best Risk of Rain 2 Mods (August 2020)

Finally, if you’re looking for more of a challenge in Risk of Rai 2, the DiluvianDifficulty mod from Harb is perfect.

It adds a level that is harder than Monsoon difficulty and you can see the options for it down below.

  • Difficulty Scaling: +75%
  • Player Health Regeneration: -60%
  • Monster Health Regeneration: +1.5% of MaxHP per second out of combat
  • Oneshot Protection: Also applies to monsters
  • Oneshot Protection: Protects only 1%
  • Elites: 20% cheaper.
  • Shrine of Blood: Cost hidden.
