Description:
Indiscriminate science stains the surgeon’s hands.

This mod looks to rework Plague Doctor in the same way previous heroes have been reworked to add a variety of engaging play styles. This mod changes 7 different skills on Wanderer (default), 4 skills on the Surgeon and Alchemist Paths, and 8 skills on the Physician Path. All these changes are aimed to give Plague Doctor a variety of roles in her different paths that feel unique.

This time, the mod ideas are not my own. This mod was based on Sammy!‘s ideas for a full rework, and since they were so interesting, I decided to make a mod with those ideas.

I normally publish the list of changes on the same mod but due to Steam character’s limits, it’s not possible. Please refer to This Google Docs file[docs.google.com] for the complete changelog.

Acknowledgments

  • @GNiko for creating the thumbnail image for this mod and for creating the effects on Early Experiment.
  • The folks at Grave Raptors and Darkest Dungeon Discord channels who provided feedback and ideas for this mod when it was just a Physician-only mod.

Known bugs

Due to the workaround I used to create path skills, some skills appear as Mastered on The Crossroads and you can’t use the Alt key to see the upgraded version. You can check the upgraded skills on The Inn though. Those skills include

  • Alchemist: Ounce of Prevention, Battlefield Medicine.
  • Surgeon: Cause of Death.
  • Physician: Blinding Gas, Battlefield Medicine.
