About this mod Machine translation
Distribute the excessive damage of the fourth base cast evenly across all base casts to make the damage output more stable.
Consistent basic casting
🎮 **Make combat smoother and cast spells more freely! **
In the original Hogwarts Legacy, when using a basic spell (such as "Swoon") consecutively, the first three attacks did very little damage, while the fourth attack dealt unusually high damage. This design forces players to perform a full four-hit combo to get the best damage output, limiting combat flexibility.
This mod changes that completely! ✨
✨ Core Functions
- **Damage Leveling**: Each base cast now deals the same damage. No longer are you forced to hit four times in a combo just to get high damage!
- **Improved Combat Flexibility**: Whether you use cooldown skills after just one or two attacks, or perform continuous output, your damage will be more stable and predictable.
- **Maintain Balance**: The module adjusts by averaging the two damage values of the original version to ensure that the total damage output is basically the same as the original version, but more evenly distributed.
📊 Specific changes
The mod modifies the following values in the game data file:
- **140 Stunned damage**: adjusted from **3** to **8**
- **142 Stunned (critical hit) damage**: adjusted from **23** to **8**
**Final effect comparison**:
- **Original Damage**: 40 + 40 + 40 + 307 = 427
- **Mod Damage**: 106 + 106 + 106 + 106 = 424
The total damage is almost the same, but the experience is completely different!

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
