Description:
OVERVIEW

This Mod makes several quality of life and balance adjustments to the Eldritch Sovereign ruler, in addition to adding new customization options.

CUSTOMIZATION

• New Halo slider added to Sovereign customization: Level 12 signatures no longer give you a pre-selected Halo, instead you may pick your choice of Halo(or lack thereof) at the customization screen.
• New Lost Wizard skin added to body options. If you want your sovereign to look exactly like the Lost Wizard unit.
• New Invisible Relic type added both to the character creation starting gear and item forge.

OVERHAUL – BASE

• Relic’s attack abilities have been reworked to be the magic equivalent of magelock rifles: They now grant one full action attack with higer damage/accuracy/range and one weaker single action ranged attack. Both attacks have Piercing and Breaching. Melee attack removed.
• New Umbral Damage option added to Relics in the Item Forge.
• Relic of the Mind starting item now deals Umbral Damage and has a chance of inflicting insanity instead of bypassing armor and resistance.
• Delirium’s insanity now lasts for 2 turns instead of 1 and it’s range has been increased to 8 hexes.
• Desperate Anguish no longer stuns target, but is now a free action instead of a full action.
• Eldritch Mind Control/Dominate are now Single Action instead of Full Action.
• Eldritch Sovereigns no longer have reduced combat movement.

OVERHAUL – SIGNATURES

• All the Pulse abilities from the Madcaster Signature Skill line have been given infinite range to match the forgotten tome abilities.

• Mindbreaker Signature Skill line received a major rework:
The level 4 signature no longer gives the Eldritch Truth ability, instead it replaces Eldritch Mind Control with Eldritch Dominate.
At level 12, instead of improving Eldritch Truth, you gain a new ability based on the chosen signature.(Enthraller’s ability works like Eldritch Mind Control but with 2 targets/ Mind Devourer’s ability works like the Infectious Insanity spell from the tome of Pandemonium).

• Fleshweaver’s Fleshweave passive now summons one Fleshling at your side every turn of combat.
• Fleshweaver Signature now unlocks different Hero Skills (Blight Strikes and Soul Draining Strikes).
• Fleshsculptor no longer replace Fleshweave with Fleshsculpt. Instead, Fleshsculpt is now a separate active ability that Summons a Flesh Abomination for 3 turns.

• Forgotten Tome of Blessings received some adjustments to improve it’s viability:
Slightly increased the damage and heal of Blessed Judgment.
Completely reworked Blessed Champion: It now summons a Blessed Soul in the target hex instead of being a single target buff.

• Forgotten Tome of Pestilence received some adjustments to improve it’s viability:
Debilitation now apply 5 stacks of it’s effects instead of 3 and affects a 2 hex radius.
Rot Away now has a chance of Instantly Killing the target. On a failure, trigger the regular effect but with 5 stacks of poisoned instead of 1.

OVERHAUL – RITUALS

• Reduced the cost of some Ritual Spells for increased viability:

Phantasmal Ritual now cost 2 thrall and 80 casting points. (from 3/100)
Mass Phantasmal Ritual now deals the same damage as normal one.
Dark Knowledge Ritual now cost 100 casting points instead of 150.
Quickening Ritual now cost 1 thrall and 45 casting points. (from 4/150)
Thrall Effigy now cost 45 casting points instead of 80.

FINAL NOTES

This mod has received major changes from it’s original state. Changes made to units, tomes and other external items have been removed. This mod is now completely focused on Eldritch Sovereigns and nothing else. Most of the removed changes from the original have been moved to my new mod: Corvo’s Voidlings Overhaul
