📋 About This Mod
An overhaul of the Ancient Dragons Lightning Strike Incantation.
I was inspired by Placidusax move where he can summon lighting from above in a wide area and wanted to imitate that.
While it didnt turn out like i expected it turned out better i think.
-Same area and distance as vanilla spell
-Summons on player
-Vanilla damage (as far as i know i dont think i messed with it)
-New effect Placidusax's lightning strike
-Distance, Life, Damage all changed from vanilla
-New effect summons on target rather than player. (Thanks to BoredBear-https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/2873 for the Custom Bullet Params)
-Various other changes made to tone done brightness (I know its still bright as hell but this is the best i got for right now)
Advice: Dont launch this is close quarters. it will blind you and may crash your game given how many effects this can have. its meant for large groups or big targets. The video provided for this version is using my custom difficulty settings for a mod pack/collection whatever ya want to call it -Calamity Edition- which will be coming soon hopefully
