📋 About This Mod

"My Chosen. My Slayer. Violence incarnate. You will become a testament in blood.

— Bhaal awarding a dedicated Bhaalspawn for their unwavering favor.

Turns out if you just fix the bugs you basically get a full rebalance.

Note: All of the following also applies to Orin.

Load order:

  • []Load this after (below) conflicting mods, which there shouldn't be many at all.[/]

    Slayer's Extra Attack

    • []Bug Fix: Slayer's Extra Attack no longer has the description of Improved Extra Attack, now replaced by the regular Extra Attack description.[/]

      Let the Slaughter Begin

      • []Bug Fix: Now uses Maneuver Save DC instead of Spell Save DC.[/]

        []Bug Fix: Stacks of the Bhaal's Boon condition are no longer lost for reasons other than an attacker missing their attack.[/]

        []Changes: Bhaal's Boon now checks for the SLAYER tag instead of player specific statuses. Does nothing on its own, but would allow this to be applied to NPCs, or natively function with creating further custom templates for Slayer level scaling.[/]

        Multiattack

        []Bug Fix: The tooltip damage is accurate and aggregated while still showing "Conditional", instead of 4d6 Slashing damage showing as extra conditional damage.[/]

        []Changes: Now deals unarmed ability modifier Slashing damage on top of the base 1d4 Slashing damage as a baseline, in addition to the extra unarmed ability modifier Slashing damage if the target is Bleeding.[/]

        []Changes: Now looks for more Bleeding-like conditions, instead of just the Bleeding condition itself.[/]

        [*]Changes: Now properly functions as unarmed damage while retaining the die size/stat
