Per-Encounter Gear Abilities (With UMM)

About

Normally, item abilities like the game's summon figurines and enchantment abilities on your gear only recharge when you rest or complete quests. This mod changes that so they can recharge every encounter instead and lets you adjust how many charges they get.

Features

• []Convert figurines (all 11 summon items) to per-encounter[/]

  []Convert gear abilities (spellbinds and other equipment powers on armor, rings, and accessories) to per-encounter[/]

  []Convert weapon & shield abilities to per-encounter[/]

  []Each of the three groups can be toggled independently[/]

  []Adjustable uses multiplier per group, which also works on abilities that are already per-encounter[/]

---

How It Works

Each of the three item groups (Figurines, Gear abilities, and Weapon & shield abilities) has its own section in the UMM window:

• []Convert to per-encounter – off by default, so nothing changes until you turn it on for a group[/]

  []Uses multiplier – vanilla keeps the item's normal number of uses; otherwise, it multiplies the original count by 0–20× (for example, a 1/rest ability at ×3 becomes 3 uses per encounter)[/]

The multiplier works independently of the convert toggle, so it also affects items that are already per-encounter in vanilla.

After changing any setting, load a save (or start a new game) for it to take effect.

This is a Release Candidate (RC)

I've only given this a quick check myself and haven't done extensive play-testing, so treat it as early/testing software. Debug logging is on by default while it's in RC so any problems are easier to track down.

If something goes wrong, please post a bug report on the mod page and attach your log file, found at:

Pillars of Eternity\PillarsOfEternity_Data\Managed\UnityModManager\Log.txtThis mod's lines are prefixed .

You can turn logging off later in the mod's Settings.xml, but it's best left on for now so any bug reports are easier to diagnose.

Disclaimer

This mod doesn't touch your game files directly; it works entirely through Unity Mod Manager. Still, use at your own risk and keep backup saves.
