📋 About This Mod
Massive update with 6. 0. Finally modded the core parts of The Witcher 3 to how i had planned since game launch!
-
[]No more resistances A. K. A. immunities to special effects (poison, bleed, etc) from certain levels.
[
]Defensive builds are now a viable option. Everything which gives max HP and HP regen (except food and drinks) are now percentual to make it scale with level.[]Few OP attack power bonuses slightly reduced to compensate the lack of resistances to special effects.
[]Status effect builds are now viable and not radically eclipsed by direct sword attack builds, without either leaving those builds in background.
[]Oils synergize with any build. If you let your oil run out now, you'll notice.
[]Trophies are meaningful for gameplay. Yep, not only extra weight for Roach.
[]Runes and glyphs opens dozens of new builds for Geralt.
[]Bombs are something to remember now and not just silver dispensers for few monsters.
[]Potions works closer to books and with more realism than just increasing duration.
[]Falling damage reworked to be immersive. No more unexpected broken legs or immunity to falls.
[]Witcher gear redesigned to represent better their school lore.
[]Food and Drinks simulating a Hunger-Thirst system. Enhancing the immersion of combats and exploration.
Everything done with likely small tweaks here and there if required.
Even though ProMods were designed and balanced to work as a complete overhaul, you can download single modules from Miscellaneous to use them alongside other gameplay mods.
Known issues: Menu tooltips displays 0 increase/decrease in some cases. Game tooltip can't display percentual or decimal values if they were natural. That means the values are working as decimals or percentages as intended.
INSTALLATION
[]Unequip all witcher gear before first install or before update from version 6. 4. 3 or lower.
