Absolution - Gameplay Overhaul

Absolution - Gameplay Overhaul.

All my mods put into one package and a few other things. This mod touches Skills, Gear, Damage, Alchemy etc.

The mod focuses on making the game more balanced and more interesting than just spamming Fast Attacks and Quen.

I will update the mod if I get some new ideas.

Misc Changes:

Every hit now applies a brief slow-motion effect (configurable and can be turned off).

Weapon Damage is no longer random, now it's static instead of ranging from 0. 9x to 1. 1x.

Crossbows have been buffed slightly. Bolts Ignore Armor, additionally they deal 0. 5% of Enemy HP as Damage, Bolts gain 1 Damage per Level until Level 25.

Mutations are available from the start, but they cost 5 Skill Points and 5 Mutagens, Multi-Path Mutagen Cost is 4 for Each Color. Mutations no longer have pre-requisites, you can research any mutation at any time.

Enemies have a lower chance to Stagger from Fast Attacks.

Increased Herb Yield to 2 per plant. Geralt automatically loots plants when close to them.

Gear automatically scales to Player Level, can configure the Level Difference or disable it, setting Level Diff to -1 lets you equip anything.

Dodges and Rolls have reduced i-frames, getting attacked while dodging reduces Damage taken by 70%.

Food and Drink are now separate buffs, you can apply both at once, and they've been rebalanced: 15/20/25hp/s for 20 seconds.

Food and Drinks now show their icons and names instead of a generic buff icon.

Enemies have been sped up across the board depending on their family.

Slightly increased the XP requirements, your Level will be slightly lower throughout early-mid game but will balance out around endgame.

Damage lowers relative to your Stamina.

Experience from Quests when you're Overleveled can be configured in the mod menu.

Fall Damage can be disabled in the mod menu.

Monster Trophies no longer automatically equip.

Equipped Items no longer add to Weight, additionally there's an option to increase the Max Weight in the mod menu.

Igni Destroys Monster Nests.

Camera is configurable in the mod menu.

Camera Shake has been added and configurable in the mod menu.

Fast Travel From Anywhere as a toggle in the mod menu.

Minimalistic Witcher Senses as a toggle in the mod menu.

Corvo Bianco and Runewright Unlocks Price can be configured in the mod menu.

Removed Stats on Level Up, increased the Base Stats.

Geralt's Speed is increased by 5%.

Vitality 3500 -> 5000

Weight Limit 60 -> 100

Crit Chance 5% -> 10%

Crit Damage 25% -> 15%

All actions now cost Stamina:

Fast Attack - 5

Strong Attack - 10

All of those have a 1 second delay before regen starts.

Stamina Cost for Attacks is Determined by Armor, Light Armor lowers the cost whereas Heavy Armor increases it.

New Parrying and Counter System:

Changed Parrying completely to be more skillful, you can now Parry/Counter basically all attacks.

Perfect Parries require you to Parry within 0. 25s of an attack hitting you, negating damage completely and Reflecting the Strike.

Regular Block has been changed. Holding your Guard up locks Stamina Regen, if you get hit while Blocking it drains 5 Stamina and reduces Damage taken by 80%, if you don't have enough Stamina to Block the Attack will go through and you'll get Stunned briefly.

All Counters are now Slash Counters, Countering reduces Damage taken by 95%, to perform a Counter you need to press the PerfectParryCounter bind within 0. 25s of an attack hitting you.

Difficulties:

- Enemy HP and DMG is reduced 25%.

- Enemy Speed is reduced by 5%.

- Attack Stamina Cost is Halved.

- Passive Parries negate all Damage.

- Perfect Parry timing increased by 0. 05s(0. 3s).

Novice Witcher:
