More starting loadouts for vanilla characters

About this mod Machine translation

Variants C v0.5.1

under development

Korean translation by raspberry Caffeine Monster

Japanese translation by 「名无しでありたい」

Adds new starting loadouts. Each loadout contains new spell card, cards and shining exhibit.

Initially, I planned to release this mod once it had a loadout for every character but Bloody Ripper turned out pretty good and took way more balancing effort than anticipated. Working on it gave ideas to other exhibits which could dramatically alter the way the game is played. However those might take some time to implement and polish. Hence, I want to make this mod available now instead of leaving it to collect dust.

Reimu C nothing special. For the time being.

Bloody Ripper

makes the game bloody difficult. It's the kind of exhibit which deck build needs to be centered around. Its effect need to be thought about every turn to capitalize on heal proc. And then hp bleeds out real quick nonetheless.

L7 clear is still very much possible but probably not without a few failures. There are some emerging quirks and dynamics which need to be understood. Balance feedback is very welcome.

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.
