Hand-to-Hand Combat

Ever wanted to slug enemies and still be able to use formae ? Say no more. I've got you covered, fam.

Description

This mod aims to emulate a real unarmed moveset by hiding the blades from the Ancient Hunter's Rune Blades, and shuffling the damage instances so that all of the damage happens on the first hit. I also added the Rift Rune Blades' heavy attacks and the axe kick air heavy that many other rune blades use.

The damage values haven't been changed, only relocated to a single instance. So it's neither a buff, nor a nerf. Let's call it a sidegrade, yeah ? Rune blade formae haven't been touched and will work as usual. The only difference is that you won't be able to see the blades, so. Do with that as you will.

IMPORTANT NOTES

1. This isn't truly a barehanded moveset. Which means that the following buffs do not apply:

- The God of War weapon forma

- The Nothing but Fists booster

- The Dear Separation booster (technically, it does apply if you're using a forma that separates the blades from your back. But it's harder to keep track of recalls when you can't see the blades.)

2. If you're using my Assassin's Sickle Revamped mod, update it before using this mod. If you don't, this mod won't register hits properly. If you're already using the 1. 1. 0 or above version of Assassin's Sickle Revamped, then this doesn't include you, you're fine. Move along, citizen.
