This mod makes it much simpler to manage socketed items or respec your character.Īdding and removing sockets employs existing Horadric Cube recipes but with more common ingredients. Note that because certain item types don’t have a unique or set item available (either by design or it’s already been dropped), the perceived chances for unique and set items may be lower.Īnd finally, skulls have just as good a chance to drop as other gems now.

The general breakdown for drop improvements are as follows: The mod also allows all class-specific items to appear when gambling. This mod should be a balanced way to give the casual player a decent chance at some quality items.Īlso, gambling has a much improved chance for set and unique items. I was quite disappointed to only find two set items in the whole game and the only uniques dropped by Baal at the very end. This mod gives the player better chances to find unique and set items.

Improves chances of getting Unique and Set Items from monster drops and gambling the point you will level fastest comparatively) Level 29 is the level with the greatest negative difference in XP needed for next level compared to the original XP (i.e.Level 25 is the level where the modded leveling system is gaining levels faster than the original system.the point you will level slowest comparatively) Level 20 is the level with the greatest difference in XP needed for the next level compared to the original XP (i.e.Level 15 is the level farthest behind the original levels at -3.31 levels behind.Levels 10-12 have the monsters with the most reduced difficulty (74% of original values).Here are a few statistics to give you a rough idea of the changes to the leveling system. However, during the last play-test, I didn’t notice any areas where monsters felt harder or easier than in previous plays without the mod. This affects monster hitpoints, defense, attack rating, and damage any other attributes, like resistances, are unaffected. To balance the resultant difficulty differences, monster levels have been lowered by the number of levels which the player level is behind the original player level. I know I can trace back at least one of my own games going unfinished due to getting bored with the long stretches of time between leveling late in the game. Though it’ll take longer to access higher skill tiers, I feel that this change really improves on the pacing of the game. This change fixes the default leveling system where players level up very quickly early on (gaining 16 levels in Act 1) and hardly ever in the late game (gaining three levels in Act 4). This mod changes the amount of experience needed to reach levels 4 through 30 such that the frequency of leveling is more consistent. Percent More XP than Last Level to get to Next Level Amazon starting weapon is changed to a short bow and quiver instead of a javelin and shield.Amazon bows add points to any of the three skill trees now instead of only the bow and crossbow tree.Strafe Turret (30) - constructs a rapid-fire turret that shoots regular arrows at nearby enemies.Mine (30) - drops a mine at your feet that does massive damage in a large area when triggered.Perimeter (24) - creates a magical barrier that enemies cannot cross.Fire Turret (18) - constructs a turret that fires exploding arrows at nearby enemies.Grenades (18) - tosses a cluster of grenades that do fire damage in a small area.Engineering (12) - increases the number of shots that each turret takes.Poison Shuriken (12) - throws a poisoned ninja star that hits every enemy in its path.Shock Turret (6) - constructs a turret that fires lightning bolts at nearby enemies.Smoke Screen (6) - creates a cloud of smoke to cover your escape.Caltrops (1) - tosses a cluster of spikes to slow pursuers.Many of these new skills are based on Assassin trap skills, so you could say that this is a merging of the two classes. This is mainly done by replacing the useless spear and javelin skills with all new skills. This mod modifies the Amazon class to be more like the Demon Hunter from Diablo 3.
