📋 About This Mod

DESCRIPTION

A simple mod allowing madness and death blight to be afflicted onto most enemies and npcs. Now madness and death blight spells, incantations and weapons have a better use outside of PVP. Death root animations DO play when an enemy dies of death blight.

NOTE: Death blight cannot be afflicted onto any enemy that is related to death in any way. This means that enemies such as skeletons, spirits, and death birds cannot be effected by death blight. This is intentionally integrated into the mod so that there is still balance & the mod is still relatively lore friendly. The same goes for madness afflictions onto any enemy that is remotely related to madness. You can't make a character that is already dead/mad more dead/mad.

Special thanks to techbot911 for helping to improve this mod.

This mod was made with ER's 1. 16 patch files.
