📋 About This Mod
It's dangerous to swim. Take this new potion!
For the respect of Karpfenfrosch's amount of work, the Next Gen 4. 04 version REQUIRES the original mod!
If the author updates the mod, I will gladly put down the mod.
What's the purpose?
This mod makes the archipelago ocean dangerous to swim in for immersion and realism.
The ocean will drain Stamina first, and then it will drain Vitality. Indicated by a Frenzy HUD.
To counter it, because it was made as a challenge when hunting for that underwater loot. The author made an original potion, "Skua".
This potion gives invisibility to the icy ocean but also more Frost Resistance. So it's useful in combat as well.
The recipes can be found in various containers or shops.
Require either "1 percent" or "2 percent" of the original mod.
You have choice!
Optional File: Included the "Killer Whale" version.
Require "No Skua" of the original mod.
If you wish to have them earlier or test them out, you can use the console command:
additem('Recipe for Skua 1')
additem('Recipe for Skua 2')
additem('Recipe for Skua 3')
additem('Skua 1')
additem('Skua 2')
additem('Skua 3')
4. 04 Next-Gen compatible!
