QueenGlandBuff

QueenGlandBuff

The goal of this mod is to buff Beetle Guards spawned by the Queen's Gland so they provide more than just emotional support.

Skill Changes

The biggest issue with Beetle Guards is their inability to fight an aerial enemy, to counter this its attacks now launch projectiles.

These extra projectiles also make Beetle Guards deal a lot of extra damage so their damage has been reduced to compensate.

For its Slam skill it fires out 3 projectiles evenly upwards. This is mostly for crowds and flying enemies that are just out of range.

Its Sunder skill now fires 3 projectiles in the direction the Guard is aiming. This allows them to hit flying enemies.

AI Changes

The AI now prefers to use Sunder over Slam, this is so it doesn't get locked into using Slam against flying enemies that are slightly out of reach.

Item/Stacking Changes

Players can only have 1 Beetle Guard each, further stacks increase their health and damage.

The 30 seconds respawn timer now actually works.

Beetle Guards spawn with an elite affix for some extra spice.

Extra Skills

The mod also adds a Special skill called "Valor". This skill gives 100 armor for 10 seconds and also draws the attention of common enemies.
