[Idea] Changes to the Creature Level to improve gameplay variety in combat

Hi,

I think the current Creature Level system is decent. But it could be better. With only two levels, the differences are too large and the 2-star mobs are too rare imo. Combat as it stands now is very noticeably affected when a level 2 creature compared to when a level 1 creature joins the fight.

I think the idea that a high level mob should inspire fear is correct. But it feels very binary right now. Where you can probably block a level 1 fuling, blocking a level 2 is a LOT harder. And blocking a high level mob should be hard, but I think there is room for one more monster level so you can have some diversity when fighting them. Nerfing level 1-2 and adding a 3rd could fix this.

From the wiki:

Creature Level Bonus Health Bonus Damage
1 100% 50%
2 200% 100%

My proposed changes

Creature level Bonus Health Bonus Damage Bonus Movement Speed
1 (more common) 75% 40% 2.5%
2 (slightly more common) 150% 80% 5%
3 (rarer) 225% 120% 7.5%

Currently every monster can be fought with the same strategy regardless of level – adding a movement speed buff should change this up as well.

What are you guys' thoughts?
