📋 About This Mod
8 variants.
In the game, by default, Cantrips damage is increased every 5 levels by 1 dice.
So for a d8 dice you have 1d8 damage at level 1 to level 4. At level 5, the damage increases to 2d8 and 3d8 at level 10.
This mod changes that by adding dice faster than every 5 levels or adding more than 1 dice.
So for example in variant A3 dice is added every level.
This makes amount of dices equal to character level.
Supported levels 1-20. Base dices: d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, 2d4.
Support for 5e Cantrips and Eldritch Blast beams.
Optional add-on to exclude AI from using upgraded DMG.
