Description:

THIS MOD EDITS SEVERAL VANILLA FILES, INCLUDING GLOBALS.DAT. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO PUT IT NEAR THE BOTTOM OF YOUR LOAD ORDER.

My main goal with this mod is to create a lightweight Synergies replacement for those times when it’s either incompatible with other mods outright or broken in multiplayer. Though I will also be including my own tweaks to taste.

Change list so far:

* Minimum monster spawn (number of monsters per square meter) increased by 50%.
* Maxmimum monster spawn (number of monsters per square meter) increased by 100%.
* Maximum champion spawn (number of champions on a given floor) increased by 100%.
* Monsters’ attention span buffed on Veteran and Elite difficulties.
* Some champion affixes buffed.

* Skulls and other unique socketables no longer have a maximum level range, only a minimum. No more farming underleveled areas for top-tier items!
* Skulls can now drop from most bosses.
* Skull of Limoany can now drop at any level range, and its level requirement has been removed.
* All attribute-related Skulls now come in four varieties, so you can socket for whichever stats you want.

* Magic and Rare items now roll more affixes.

* Borris the Stout (The stat enchanter) now spawns much more often.

* Dungeon affix system reworked with many new affixes. Some vanilla dungeon affixes removed or replaced with better versions for being lame.
* All areas of the game can now roll random dungeon affixes.
* Mapworks dungeons now roll a minimum of one random affix; there are no "plain" maps.

* HP from Vitality buffed. Armor bonus left untouched.
* Players now naturally regenerate 1% health per second.
* Players now naturally regenerate 5% mana per second, up from 4%.

* Maximum Fame level increased to 50, up from 33.

* Spells and tomes can now go up to rank 7, available at level 100, and some of the crappier ones have been reworked to be more useful.
* Adrenaline Rush now goes to level 4, available at level 100.
* Critical Strike tome can now spawn.
* Potion of Respec is now sometimes in stock at the general vendor.
* New Potions of Sacrifice Strength, Dexterity, Focus, and Vitality can now spawn at the general vendor. These can be used to subtract stats in order to reclaim stat points for respeccing. Note that the game will crash if you try to set a stat to 0 or below. (There’s nothing I can do to fix this bug, sadly.)

* All difficulties moved over one, monster statistics-wise. Casual is the vanilla Normal, Normal is the vanilla Veteran, Veteran is the vanilla Elite, and Elite is buffed into a new higher difficulty.
* Fame and gold now scale with difficulty level, but not experience.
** Casual: -25%
** Normal: Default
** Veteran: +25%
** Elite: +50%

*** RIDICULOUS HP REGEN ON BOSS MONSTERS SHOULD NOW BE FIXED
