📋 About This Mod

PCVR | Nomad

Designed for full integration with the current skill trees, the mod ensures that each cross-tree includes at least one skill per tier. Some follow the thematic spirit of vanilla cross-skills, like Body and Lightning, while others embrace the mod’s core Arcane RPG theme. Although balance was considered, the primary focus has always been—and will continue to be—power and spectacle.

Without further ado, I present:

Fully Integrated Skill Tree:

Player Abilities

Potent Cast

Count is increased at each spell tier

Unique Casts

New ways to cast abilities, grabbing spell orb with offhand & grip casting based on charge level

Devastating Merges

Powerful Status Effect

Explode or Implode charged enemies

Enemy Abilities

Configurable via mod options

Configuration

The majority of ability fields can be found in the skill jsons. Mod options are limited, but may be expanded in future updates.

Modability

Arcana exposes events on a similar level to the vanilla game. If you have an idea for an extension, I can provide scale references for abilities like the barrier upon request.
