📋 About This Mod

\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/ NEW VERSION /\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\/\\ Please read the Known Issues Readme before leaving a \"X doesn\'t work\" comment. -------------------------------------------- Installation -------------------------------------------- For best results, install with DA Modder. DAUpdater and DAO Mod Manager tend to skip the required Single Player background files. It is also always a good idea to uninstall old versions of a Mod before updating to a new version. -------------------------------------------- Compatibility -------------------------------------------- - Do not use alongside the Weapon Master Mod. - Compatibility files included for the Awakening, Awakening in the OC, Combat Tweaks, and Expanded Shapeshifting: Learned Forms Mods. - Will be incompatible with any other Mod that includes a rules_core.ncs file. - Awakening blocks the first new Mod-added Class from selection as a new character. You\'ll have to either use the warlockx console command or make a character in the OC and import them in. - Works with Spirit Eater Class. HOWEVER; if you disable that you\'ll have to also manually delete the background GDA files it installs to avoid background issues in the character creator. -------------------------------------------- Description -------------------------------------------- This adds several new Specializations and/or Classes to the game. These are automatically added to your character after specific criteria have been met; generally either by knowing specific Spells/Talents or having specific Attribute scores. To increase the variety of requirement options, a new set of Weapon Focus abilities have also been added. Exact requirements are listed in the included Specialization Requirements.txt file. Variations of the Weapon Focus abilities are available to each of the base Classes and provide passive bonuses to your Attack or Damage when wielding a specific weapon type. Do note that the bonuses will not show up on your character sheet; they are applied only when you attack with the proper weapon. For those only wishing access to some of the new Specializations, you\'ll just have to delete the HIDDEN abilities of the ones you don\'t want from the abi_base_weaponfocus.gda file. -------------------------------------------- Classes Added -------------------------------------------- Ritualist Warlock -------------------------------------------- Specializations Added -------------------------------------------- Arcane Archer (Warrior and Rogue) Archmage (Mage) Black Flame Zealot (Rogue) Blackguard (Warrior and Warlock) Bladesinger (Warrior and Rogue) Daggerspell Caster (Rogue) Daggerspell Mage/Shaper (Mage) Dread Warlock (Warlock) Duskblade (Warrior and Warlock) Elemental Archer (Warrior, Rogue, and Mage) Essence Thief (Spirit Eater) Hellfire Warlock (War
