voltaicMittBuff
Some tweaks to Voltaic Mitt to make its existence Acceptable.
About this mod Author’s original text
Voltaic Mitt:
- Now additionally stuns close enemies on interactable use for 50% (+30% per stack) damage.
- Is now only in the Utility category, not Damage (No longer shows up in Damage chests, shows up in Utility chests).
These changes are meant to make Voltaic Mitt feel a bit more Welcome whenever you find it. Its base effect is too situational to be noticeably impactful, can be easily missed out on with above-average vertical movement in loops, and the damage itself is too meager for it to be considered a "Damage" item. It currently just feels like a dud in a pool filled with otherwise strong, effective, and coveted items. Given that the last buff to Mitt was making climbing enemies flinch when hit by the trail, I decided to lean into its stunning utility (and also make it an actual utility item) with an extra, more common effect of using interactables to stun enemies. Probably still minor, but it's as vanilla-friendly as I can manage, and it still is just a white item.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- 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. If the mod depends on a loader such as ReturnOfModding, install it first as the readme describes.
