📋 About This Mod

  • []This mod features 67 new perks withup to 5 ranks each.

    []You can find them in a new tab, next to the other attributes, called "prestige".

    []All of them should work so far and i've tried to design them reasonably and balanced.

    []Designed for higher difficulties and as a late game sink, could impede on the difficulty otherwise

    []Newest version features a maximum of 5 ranks per perk, to increase compatibility, especially with UI reworks/replacements from other mods

    The mod provides a localization for the following languages:

    • []German -> provided by me

      []English -> set up by me with improvements by ztensity

      []Japanese -> provided by Geniti

    • Your language is not supported? Feel free to translate the files and send them to me, I'll include them in the main file and of course credit you.

      The perks are intended as a late game skillpoint dump for additional effects. If you think any of those are unbalanced let me know, although I've tested them intensely and think they're okay how they're right now. Depending on how you set up your game there might still be some balancing issues though.

      In the newest iteration, the perks have a maximum level of 5, to provide maximum compatibility for other, especially UI mods. They now have varying costs, instead of diminishing returns, based on the perk itself, perk level and its effects. Also a lot of weapon perks were adjusted or tuned down and several new perks added. For detailed information take a look at the changelog.txt.

      You'll find a table containing the skills effects at max rank in the pictures and the folder itself.

      ATTENTION! Especially if you update from a previous version!

      If you're uninstalling or updating the file and want to use your old save, use the forgetting elixir to get back your points! ELSE SOME OR ALL MIGHT BE GONE! I will mention it in a sticky in the comments section if you don't need to use it for an update. Serverside and clientside install is needed to work as intended, if you want to host a multiplayer game. As of now it should be safe to add and delete this mod mid-game. If you're deleting it, just make sure to reclaim you spent skill points first, or else they're gone.
