📋 About This Mod

What this mod actually changes in terms of values?

MIne Dark Awakening:

- Heart gain increased from hitting enemies from 0. 3 to 0. 9

- Heart gain increased from "Critical" hits from 0. 4 to 0. 9

- Heart gain increase from Heat Actions (Gain about 1 heart per heat action)

- Heart Activation time decreased by Half

- 1 Heart duration increased to last as long as Using 3 Vanilla Hearts

- 2 Hearts duration increased to last 1. 5x longer than having 3 Vanilla hearts

- 3 Hearts duration increased to last 2x longer than having 3 Vanilla hearts

I honestly didnt notice much?, Not sure if works, let me know:

- 1 Heart damage has been decreased by half (10 to 5)

- 2 Hearts damage has been changed to the same value as 1 heart (20 to 5)

- 3 Hearts damage has been changed to the same value as 1 heart (30 to 5)

Kiryu Dragon Boost:

- Dragon Boost Duration Changed to Last around 50 Seconds across all "upgrades"

Note: Value is based by "Dragon Boost Duration: Kiwami" Skill, Normal durations are around 15 (Default), 20 (Dragon Boost Duration) and 25 Seconds (Dragon Boost Duration: Kiwami Skill)

- Dragon Finisher can be used any time during Dragon Boost and it will end Dragon Boost like normally.

- 1 Heat action fills the gauge fully.

- Increase the rate for gauge to fill up.

Note: Hits and "Critical" rate values are similar to Mine's ^

Help Needed:

if you know, please let me know how to change value for "Pace of Battle" duration in either comments or message me here on nexus
