Hero Customization Perks

Summary

WARNING: This mod is buggy. This is a mod that adds a handful of character specific perks that add some new traits, starting items, starting decks or even some multiclass options for existing characters. Specifically, I have a perk that reworks Zek's Soul Lantern to upgrade max hp on the Soul Lantern whenever an enemy dies, and changed vampirism to scale with Zek's max hp. Nenukil gets a perk that gives him "Mana Charged Boots" which work similarly to rocket boots but stacks of fast are lost at the end of the turn. Bree has a perk that turns her into a nature paladin (Warrior/Healer) which come with a new innate trait that causes thorns you apply to also apply 1 vitality and vise versa. Thuls gets a perk that changes his innate trait to give +1 stealth. Gustav has a perk that changes his starting deck to start with more healing and speed control, Nezglekt gets a Healer/Scout multiclass and Andrin gets a Scout/Warrior subclass option. Laia gets a new passive that heals based on 25% of block applied. Special thanks to binbin for the too many perks mod that I copied the code of to make this mod and for his AtO mod guides. I haven't tested this mod in multiplayer so I hope it works there.

Known Issues

If you are playing a run with a perk induced multiclass...

  • Sometimes card selections after combat are initially not showing both class options and you need to click the reload in the top right to fix.
  • Sometimes your character looks like Magnus. Reloading the combat seems to fix this.
  • Sometimes, Particularly after loading a saved game while in town when trying to craft cards only 1 of the class options shows up. Clicking a numbered button at the bottom seems to fix this.

When you want to start a new run, if you just did a run with a perk induced multiclass then your game is quite likely to crash. This is due to the way I implemented the multiclasses. I will try and fix this in the future but for now you will need to restart your game to start a new run.

Items added in by this mod don't have colored names or descriptions of what they do.

Soul lantern doesn't look quite right so I want to improve how it looks.

I want to make more perks so I need to come up with some more stuff. I also might see if there is anything I can do to make it easier for people to make addons for this mod.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
