Information

Adds more mechanics to bows, but only in regards to firing arrows using the attack button, not using skills!

Bonus Damage

Whenever hitting the enemy in the head or when they are unaware you gain minor bonus damage as a seperate hitsplat. The multipliers are multiplicative. This means that the total multiplier = HeadshotMultiplier x StealthMultiplier.

Headshot: Adds some damage and impact if you hit the enemy in the head. Default: 1.25x Damage, 1.2x Impact.

Stealth: Completely unaware enemies takes the full stealth damage multiplier, once on patrol or alert it is reduced by 1/2 or 1/3. Default: 1.6x Damage.

Status Infliction

Armshot: Inflicts Weaken buildup on the enemy. Default: 40% buildup.

Legshot: Inflicts Slow Down buildup on the enemy. Default: 35% buildup.

Config Options

With the outward config manager you can configure many of the values by accessing the F5 menu.

You can tweak the following Multipliers: for Headshot (Damage), Headshot (Impact), Stealth (Damage).

You can also tweak the following status buildup: Slow Down (Legs), Weaken (Arms).

Patch Notes:

  • 0.7.0 Initial Release

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
