Revenant Re-balanced

Calibration Version: 1.03.3

This mod is updated to calibration version 1.03.3

!!CHECK CHANGELOG!!

Description:

A few things have been modified in this mod, starting with her claws. The starting ability on it is borderline useless, so I changed it to golden vow. I also modified her starting finger seal, so it's no longer Rejection/Heal, instead it's Discus of Light/Heal.

I think one of the biggest hurdles to playing Revenant was her early game. She got dumped into the game with a set of claws and a dream, no damage dealing incant in sight. Her early game consists of going to churches to gamble for good incants. RNG decides if you are going to be useful or not. These changes to her starting kit eliminate the early game struggle.

The next changes I made modifies her stats:

HP Grade: D -> C

FP Grade: A -> S

I felt like the other casters had an upper hand in survivability. Duchess has improved dodging, Recluse has better iframes and dodges farther, while Revenant got the regular dodge roll. The FP scaling was to compensate for not having an innate ability to restore FP.

Her summons now have pretty much double their original HP, and way more damage than they used to do. They are not broken by any means, but a lot stronger than before.

The last change I made is to one of her relic effects: Power up while fighting alongside family. With this relic equipped, Revenant had active buffs as long as her summons were deployed. The buff Helen gave Revenant was HP recovery. ~~I changed this to FP recovery, the rest of the buffs stayed the same.~~ !!CHECK CHANGELOG!!

Note: this isn't about the mod, just regular knowledge. If you want Helen's ultimate damage to connect, cast your art when she dashes into the target, or is next to an enemy doing a combo. If Helen dashes away as you cast your Ultimate, she WILL miss the target.

Changelog:

V1.1

I added Deep of Night scaling to Revenant's summons, but this change makes their HP broken (only in DoN). Basically, I just grabbed one of the multipliers applied to enemies and put them on the summons. The problem is, stat multipliers on them don't get applied the moment the game starts, rather when Revenant summons them. DoN scaling has Max HP multipliers on them, so whenever I de-summon them, the game takes away those multipliers without changing the remaining HP points. This means the summons now have more HP percentage wise. This essentially causes them to heal. The stat modifiers then gets reapplied on summoning again. (This doesn't happen in regular play because the already existing stat modifiers don't give the summons more max HP)

I'm 99% sure this problem cannot be solved through parameter editing, and I'm not skilled enough to rework how the game applies stat modifiers on Revenant's summons. Good thing this is a mod and it doesn't really matter if those summons are a bit more busted.

V1.2

Updated the mod to the latest game version.

V1.3

Updated the mod to the latest game version.

This mod provided an innate FP recovery method for Revenant as long as you had the " Power up while fighting alongside family" relic on you. This update changes that. Now, each and every summon while active on the field, will provide you with continuous FP recovery without needing to have the relic effect on you. In exchange, the summons will continuously lose a little bit of their HP.

I reverted the change I made for Helen in " Power up while fighting alongside family" back to HP recovery, but buffed it to 2 HP/sec.

Warning:

I feel like I have to mention, if you play with modified files, you can be banned. Please make a backup of your save file and original regulation.bin file beforehand. Play at your own discretion.

Installation:

ME3 is probably the easiest method to play this mod, so I recommend installing that.

If you want to play Deep of Night, download Seamless Co-op.

Extract Revenant Re-balanced.zip, and simply drag and drop the regulation.bin file into ME3.

Make sure Steam is running in the background, and just click "Launch Nightreign" in Mod Engine 3 Manager. This should launch your game in offline mode, without EAC.
