📋 About This Mod
The vanilla centurion have three normal attacks and two power attacks, which can feel somewhat monotonous in the MCO gameplay environment. This mod adds new animations for centurion and designs fitting skills, making centurion the formidable foes described in the game within Dwemer ruins.
Main Features:
-
[]Approximately 30 brand new animations.[/]
[]Powered by MCO SCAR 2. 0 combo system.[/]
[]Seamlessly integrates with the original animations.[/]
[]Introduces new combat mechanics.[/]
[]Some vanilla bug fixes of centurion behavior, add a cooldown time to prevent centurion from infinite staggered[/]
Overheat Mode:
Intense combat causes the Centurion to overheat, making its fighting style more frenzied as it needs to release heat from its core. Be cautious! Using fire magic against it will also affect its overheating condition.
Overload Mode:
Rapid operation causes centurion's circuits to overload, making its attacks more unpredictable. During this time, it needs to discharge high-voltage currents, which can result in attacks with immense force.
