Description:

Adds a class based on Plague Doctor’s Surgeon path in Darkest Dungeon 2.

Most of her skills are the same as base Plague Doctor, but with the following changes:

General: +4 HP, -1.5 avg base DMG. Skills with -100% DMG mod can CRIT. On kill: Regen 3/rd for 3 rds.

Noxious Blast and Plague Grenade -1 Blight Amount and higher damage mod.

Noxious Blast Bonus Blight chance and duration vs marked. Clears mark on hit.

Blinding Gas: Stun removed, debuffs accuracy and speed instead. Small chance to mark. No use limit.

Incision: -1 Bleed Amount. On hitting a marked target, buffs self bleed amount dealt until end of combat. Clears Mark on hit.

Battlefield Medicine: Launch ranks changed to 321. Heals more vs Blighted and/or Bleeding. Doesn’t cure self.

Emboldening Vapours: Lasts 3 rounds. Usage limit removed. Buffs PROT instead of SPD. Buffs self and target (can still target self).

Disorienting Blast: Launch ranks changed to 21. DMG mod changed to -50%. Pushes target back instead of shuffling. Debuffs SPD instead of stunning. Buffs self PROT.

Her other skills are from DD2:

Ounce of Prevention: Launch 321. Buffs party’s stun, move, and debuff resistance. Reduces party’s stress taken. Buffs self PROT.

Magnesium Rain: Launch 432. All-ranks cleave fire attack. Clears corpses.

Indiscriminate Science: Launch 432. Small single-target heal; removes mark, stealth, guarded, stun and (clearable by herbs) debuffs. Bonus healing vs marked, stealthed, guarded and stunned. Healing is also increased by certain buffs and debuffs on the target if the Indiscriminate Science Patch is active

Cause of Death: Launch 21, target 123. Melee attack with -100% DMG, +5% CRIT, and 140 ACC. 1 use per battle. Applies 0 Bleed and 0 Blight. This skill’s Bleed and Blight can’t be resisted. Compatible Bleed and Blight skills apply a debuff to the target increasing this skill’s Bleed and Blight by the amount of Bleed or Blight that skill applies. (Due to technical limitations, this debuff can be resisted and is applied separately from the Bleed/Blight, and only counts Bleed/Blight for their base amount and duration, regardless of buffs.)

Currently this applies to bleed/blight from vanilla, DLC, and the following mods. Leave a comment if there’s any modded bleed or blight you want me to add.
