Main features

Disclaimer: The current version is tested for main features only - skills, customizations, saves, animations and interactions.

I don't have the time to play the full story and the DLCs, help from the community is needed to playtest the mod so expect crashes or incorrect behavior. Please report them here.

  • []All skill trees now require 4 more points on the single point skills row. This prevents reaching all 3 capstones on level 80.[/]

    []Reworked skills with updated icons:

    Epicenter - now 'Kinetic': Allows melee while sprinting and increases sprint speed by 10%.

    Flash Freeze - now 'Acid Reflex': Replaces cryo requirement with corrosion.

    Hade's shackles : Enemy proximity replaces slam requirement in addition to melee on inactive action skill.[/]

    []New Skill - 'Thanatos Embrace': increases gun damage for each bleeding enemy. This is a custom skill that makes her melee gameplay more fun and viable for OP levels.[/]

Class Mods

  • []Reworked all 3 legendary class mods from BL:TPS to fit BL2[/]

    []3 new legendary class mods to fit in with the rest of the legendary coms available to the rest of the playable roster [/]

    []Legendary coms drop pools:

    4 drops on Chubby / Legendary world drop

    1 Terramorphous

    1 Golden Golem (Tiny Tina DLC)[/]

Customizations

All her skins are unlocked by default and will not drop as skin items.

New custom skin - "Pandoran Heat".

Requirements

  • []PythonSDK - LINK[/]

    []All DLC's [/]

    • []The mod serializes its own items so Sanity Saver is not required (compatible, but may cause dependency if serialization error occurs while it is installed). [/]

      []Compatible with LJBreeze's Nisha mod.[/]

    Limitations

    • []Third person is a bit wonky[/]

      []Coop is not supported for now[/]

      []A carry over issue from TPS - Left arm texture in first person does not match the third person on some skins. [/]

      Huge thanks for the community for reporting bugs and showing support here on Nexus and the discord page. Special thanks to Mopioid and Joltzdude139 for playtesting the mod and reporting huge chunk of the issues! 💕
