JCarter426 1,268 Posted Wednesday at 10:17 AM View File JC's Blaster Adjustment for K1 This mod adjusts the statistics of blaster items in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic to bring them more in line with their statistics in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - the Sith Lords and correct some balance issues. A table showing the base item type changes is included in the screenshots. Heavy Weapon Damage According to developer commentary, Heavy Weapon items were intended to make an extra attack per round, but this feature was never implemented. Due to this discrepancy, several Heavy Weapon items are mechanically worse than comparable Blaster Rifle items, despite costing more and having a more niche prerequisite feat. Other mods exist which grant the extra attack through other means; however, there are limitations to adding extra attacks and complications with mod compatibility. Instead, I have opted to add an extra damage roll for these item types. I have also adjusted the item properties of the Baragwin Assault Gun and Baragwin Heavy Repeating Blaster because items seem to have been designed with this limitation in mind, having been added to the game later with the Yavin Station DLC. Instead of a +2d6 damage bonus, these items receive a flat +2 damage bonus. The expected damage output is still slightly higher than in the base game. Installation Options Multiple installation options are provided for for compatibility with other mods which make similar changes to individual item classes. Full Installation: This option modifies the damage and critical rolls for all blaster items. Heavy Weapon items are given additional damage to replace the missing attack roll which is missing for these item types. Blaster Pistol & Blaster Rifle + Critical: This option modifies the damage rolls for Blaster Pistol and Blaster Rifle items and the critical rolls for all blaster items. Blaster Pistol + Critical: This option modifies the damage rolls for Blaster Pistol items and the critical rolls for all blaster items. Installation Extract files from the downloaded archive.
