JP No negative quirk debuffs

🎮 **A more balanced quirk optimization solution! **

This mod is an alternative to **"JP No Random Negative Quirks"** (which in turn is an update to **Hatesh**'s **"Stop with random negative Quirks and Diseases"**). If you thought the original mod was too powerful, this version might surprise you!

⚠️ **Requires Crimson Court DLC. **

✨ Core Functions

  • **Remove Negative Debuffs**: This mod **does not remove** a hero's negative quirks, but it will remove all debuffs from **most** of them.
  • **Eliminate random acquisition**: Also removed the chance of randomly acquiring negative quirks when returning to town.
  • **Compatibility Optimization**: Removed mutual exclusivity between all quirks. This means your hero can have both the opposing quirks Toughness and Fragility, but you'll only get the Toughness buff, with Fragility acting like a placeholder at this point.
💡 **Give a vivid example**:
With this mod installed, having both the "Tough" and "Fragile" quirks is like saying: **"I'm fragile...but not that fragile..."** (Inspired by playing too much Death Stranding, sorry 😉).

🧠 Mechanism description (technical details)

The reason this mod works is because after you've removed all debuffs from a quirk, it will show an empty label when you hover over the quirk. Since I removed all incompatibilities between quirks, you can get seemingly contradictory combinations, but only the beneficial ones remain.

🎯 Usage suggestions

This mod is intended to provide a **more balanced and interesting middle option** for players who feel that completely removing random negative quirks is too simplistic. It retains the "identity" of the quirk, but removes its annoying penalties, making the experience smoother while still being challenging.

**Get ready for a journey through Darkest Dungeon without the annoying debuffs, but with the quirks system still in place! **

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

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