Rough Mobs is a small mod which makes some mobs significantly harder.

 

This mod is pretty well configurable! You can change/disable every feature in your config file.

The mod can also be used server-side only but it is not recommended because some features will be a bit buggy.

This mod also allows you to add/remove your own attributes to entities on spawn. You can increase: max HP, speed, knockback resistance, attack damage and follow range.  

More informations of how this works can be found in the config file and on the wiki page: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Attribute

 

The mod also allows you to create custom entity spawn entrys. More informations can be found in the config file. You can also lower entity spawn rates in the config file. 

 

Mobs no longer attack each other. This was often caused by Skeleton which tried to shoot the player but accidentally hit another mob. Mobs now always search for players around them before they attack. You can add/remove Entities for this feature in the config file.

 

(1.0.9+) You can now change aggresive mobs to behave aggresive against animals and villagers (Not enabled by default)
