# E5.M4 — GroupCombatScaling
## Summary
| Field | Value |
|--------|--------|
| **Module ID** | E5.M4 |
| **Epic** | [Epic 5 — PvE Combat](../epics/epic_05_pve_combat.md) |
| **Stage target** | Pre-production |
| **Status** | Planned (see [dependency register](module_dependency_register.md)) |
## Purpose
Duo/squad scaling and anti-trivialization hooks using party context from [E8.M1 — PartyAndMatchAssembly](E8_M1_PartyAndMatchAssembly.md).
## Responsibilities
- Apply `ScalingProfile`, `PartySizeModifier`, and `CombatDifficultyBand` when resolving encounters ([E5.M3](E5_M3_EncounterAndRewardTables.md)).
## Key contracts
| Contract | Role |
|----------|------|
| `ScalingProfile` | HP/damage modifiers per party size. |
| `PartySizeModifier` | Discrete steps or curves. |
| `CombatDifficultyBand` | Named difficulty for tuning. |
