LoneWanderer 103 Posted October 12, 2022 View File Force Affinity Form Fix + Overhaul mod The mod now uses HoloPatcher as installer. 1.Description The Jedi Consular, Jedi Master and Sith Lord classes learn 3 Force Forms not available to other classes. One of them, Force Affinity, is generally considered useless because it has only one effect: +500% Force Point regeneration in combat. Force Channel Form (available to all classes) gives the same bonus (not mentioned in the description of the Form) in addition to several other effects. So, the real problem here is not that Force Affinity is "useless", but that Force Channel is (unintentionally) overpowered. This mod offers 3 solutions: fixing overpowered Force Channel Form or replacing the original Force Affinity Form bonus with new one (recommended). Don't install them both at the same time. 1) The "Force Channel Fix" option will change the undocumented "+500% FP regeneration in combat" bonus of Force Channel Form to a more balanced +100%, making Force Affinity more viable. New bonus of Force Channel: FP Regeneration: +50% (non-combat), +100% (in combat) Force Power Damage: +3 Saves vs Force Powers: +2 2) The "Force Amplification" option will replace the FP Regen bonus of Force Affinity with an increased range for mass Force Powers (based on the cut Force Amplification form). New Bonus of Force Affinity: Force Power Range: +100% Opponents' Saves vs Force Powers: +3 Note: the max distance between the caster and the target to cast Force Power won't change, only the radius of the mass Force Power's effect. The increased range will be useful for such Powers as MASS STASIS, FORCE WHIRLWIND/FORCE WAVE, FORCE STORM, FORCE SCREAM chain, INSANITY, CRUSH OPPOSITION, HEAL chain, IMPROVED/MASTER FORCE DRAIN, IMPROVED/MASTER BATTLE MEDITATION and some others. 3) "Force Shell" option will allow to use the Force to absorb part of damage received (technically, to automatically restore HP depending on the amount of damage received). New Bonus for Force Affinity: Restores 50% of HP from damage received at the expense of an equivalent amount of FP ------------------------------------------- 2.Installation This mod uses HoloPatcher installer. The installer for Windows comes with the mod; installers for Linux and Mac should be downloaded from the HoloPatcher mod page (https://deadlystream.com/files/file/2243-holopatcher).
