Arrow Deflection Rework (Old Gen)

2l7m59O64WM

Description

There's nothing more maddening in the game than when you are taking on 8 bandits all it once, and an archer is constantly hitting you from a distance.  The vanilla deflection/reflection skill helps, but I always thought it was a little boring, and didn't exact the proper revenge that Geralt deserves against these nats.  So I have reworked the arrow deflection skill so that you'll actually look forward to encountering archers and making a sport of their demise.  Here are the changes this mod introduces,

• []Skill level 1 - Same as vanilla.  Allows you to deflect arrows while parrying[/]

  []Skill level 2 - Perfectly timed parries will reflect back arrows at the attacker, but now the arrow will also knock down the attacker, giving you a few seconds of respite from their barrage.  [/]

  []Skill Level 3 - Perfectly timed parries reflect back arrows and deal a fatal blow to the attacker.  Sending them to the afterlife... [/]

  I have found that this skill progression is just a lot more fun and satisfying.  It feels better now applying hard earned skill points to this ability.  Nothing like taking out an archer with a perfectly timed parry in the midst of battle.  Epic!

  You'll see the new ability descriptions in your game.
