📋 About This Mod

Hullos all!

Updated to patch 1. 22 Fixed an old eyesore - renamed name from CastMoreYrdens to ImprovedYrden. Search for IMPYRDEN in file instead of CMY. Re-uploaded the file with a small comment fix. Remember to remove comments (//) and add them as described in the file! Updated to patch 1. 21

Updated to patch 1. 2 It worked fine before with patch, but a few changes were done to the original yrden.ws file in patch 1. 2, so I redid the mod. What does this mod do? A nifty little mod that changes the amount of Yrden effects you can have active simultaneously.

You'll be able to have up to 10 "normal" Yrdens (the Slow Effect ones) and 10 "shooters" active simultaneously (for a total of 20 effects).

Note: If the mob is too high level compared to you, you can't damage the mob (their resistance is at 100%). So no killing lvl 30 mobs at lvl 2...

Manual installation: Extract the contents of the archive into your Witcher 3 mod folder.

This mod changes the following game file: yrdenEntity.ws

If you have other mods changing this file, either they will not work, or this mod won't.

Making your own tweaks: Standard Yrden has max count of 1, fire rate of 2 secs, and duration/number of shots depending on your skills.

Open the yrdenEntity.ws file in the your Witcher 3 mod folder in a text editor, and search for "CMY". It's all explained in the comments of the file.

Changes you can make:

  • []Amount of Yrdens you can have simultaneously. []Duration of the Yrden in seconds. []Amount of charges in shooter Yrdens. []Discharge speed (how often the shooter Yrdens should fire).
  • Damage modifier (modifier is based on skill level normally, you can set it to whatever you want).
4. 0 Update: Updated to patch 1. 21. 3. 1 Update: During testing, I set discharge speed to 0. 5 seconds. Changed to 2. 0 seconds - oops! 3. 1 Update: Mod works as usual, but redid it with the new patch 1. 12 yrden.ws file. 3. 0 Update: Made only 1 version of this mod - you can tweak it yourself easily ;o) Comments made in mo
