Mystic Knight Skills

MYSTIC KNIGHT IS BACK BABY! sorta

This mod a collection of skills I created for alphaZomega's Skill Maker mod to bring some semblance of Mystic Knight back to the Dragon's Dogma franchise.

Give yourself boons by using one of the core elemental spells.

Unleash Elemental Fury with Magic Counters and souped-up melee skills.

Deal some damage, or knock foes off balance with Payload Skills designed to weigh risk vs reward.

Overall my goal is not to make the game any easier, but to provide interesting ways to play.

These skills are still being tinkered with. I play with extremely different difficulty settings than default. Overall these felt good to me, and each skill has its trade-offs.

Skill Maker is very easy to use as a player. At this point I forget my regular L1 buttons sometimes.

Installation:

FluffyModManager:

• []Place the file in your Fluffy mod folder.

Manual:

• []Extract the reframework folder from the Zip file.

  []Drag and drop the whole folder into your Dragon's Dogma 2 main game folder to merge the 'reframework' folders.

• SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Dragons Dogma 2

  I won't go into detail about setting up or using Skill Maker, as there's plenty of info already on alpha's mod page. Rest assured, the setup is easy.

  Counters and Skill Maker config:

  Counters do not need Skill Maker's button modifiers. If you're unsure of what that means, it simply means when you perform a timed guard / counter, press the button.

  I have them set to controller face buttons, and R1 for myself.

  When a block is timed successfully, there is a brief window to press the corresponding button. If you're already hitting timed blocks, this timing is easy.

  Pressing these buttons without a timed block will do nothing.

  Here's an image:

  Boon Spells:

  The core of your Mystic Knight build is probably shaped here. These are not hard requirements for other Skills, and Skill Maker does have plenty of buttons. These are simply your easiest options to exploit elemental weakness.

  Ignition: Triple Blast at target, follow by a pillar of fire to set targets alight. Leaves a burning AoE for some time. Applies Fire Boon.

  Rainmaker: Applies splashes of water to your weapon for 20 seconds. Applies Ice Boon.

  Chain Lightning: Call down a bolt of lightning to charge your weapon.
