Berserk and Arcane Warrior Difficulties

The 1. 10 version is out and adds two new difficulty settings rather than the original one! The new difficulty is named Arcane Warrior and opposed to that overpowered DAO tank on your side you now have the pleasure of fighting him. Berserk difficulty (below nightmare difficulty) is geared toward people who want a challenging game but don\'t need to plan out tactics and strategies near as much, while Arcane Warrior difficulty will require a lot more crowd control than hack and slash. Crowd control is improved in this version as it allows you to hold enemies at certain locations longer respective of their rank. While playing Night Lies on arcane warrior for example I needed to make use of 3 crowd control moves to keep 3 mobs as well as the captain out of my way to efficiently tank. INSTALATION -Unzip the .rar file to a temporary location. -Copy the file folder named Berserk + Arcane Warrior Difficulties into your Documents-Bioware-Dragon Age 2-packages-core-override directory. UNINSTALATION -Delete the folder named Berserk + Arcane Warrior Difficulties from the above (installation) directory. NEW UPDATE For those of you wanting to have a higher diffuclty but don\'t like using only Hawke for healing or for tanking and honestly don\'t want to fill up spots with Aveline or Anders, I have a new mod available that adds a bit more customization to your party! It also coincidentally will fix your issues with magic resistance at later levels. It adds certain specialization trees and normal trees to your companions. It follows guidelines of role playing and class skills. YOU MUST start a new game to use this mod. http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2853 UPDATE Both difficulties are now added into one difficulty table. You now are able to make use of two difficulties geared towards different play-styles. Berserk difficulty targets people who want challenges but love hack and slashing more than controlling every teammate and tactic. Arcane Warrior difficulty is geared towards people who want to feel the need to use every skill available to them. Miasmac Flask/Petrify/Glyph of Paralysis/Mind Blast are no longer useless rarely used moves. UPDATE The mod is now more party friendly. The damage values were tweaked a bit both for creature and player characters. You will now do a bit more damage while receiving less (not by too much). The biggest change I made was increasing status effects. I figured this mod was supposed to make a game party friendly while adding strategy. Glyph of paralysis and petrify as well as rogue sabotage moves are VERY important to winning harder fights. Your crowd control abilities work A LOT longer, and this in part was a way of taking damage off of your tank and less durable companions. I would recommend a healer with glyph of paralysis, petrify and barrier, as well as a rogue with some points in sabotage. One other quick thing to point out, for those people bored of using
