Description:
Goal: To align Alarielle closer to her lore and provide players with a stronger incentive to try different builds.

Mod Changes:
  • Exchanged Shield of Thorns (Life) for Net of Amyntok (Light).
  • Exchanged Tempest (High) for Regrowth (Life).
  • Exchanged Arcane Unforging (High) for Dwellers Below (Life).
  • Exchanged Arcane Conduit for Greater Arcane Conduit.
  • Changed Blood & Fire line – Gift of Isha, the Ward is changed from target:Self to target:Army.
  • Changed Blood & Fire line – Isha’s Blessing, added 10% Winds of Magic Cost Reduction for all spells.

A little bit about the mod – Why?

I thought that it was odd how Alarielle had High Magic, when in lore, her focus was Life and Light. Additionally, looking at Blood & Fire, I really thought that it was underwhelming, with little incentive to actually go down that route. This mod changes Alarielle’s spells exclusively to Life and Light, and I believe expanding the Gift of Isha Ward to apply to the entire army, along with the Winds of Magic Cost Reduction makes Blood & Fire an attractive offering for offense-orientated players.

Note on the effect on Gameplay:

There isn’t a huge impact on gameplay, other than making Alarielle an even more capable Legendary Lord. She’s already one of the best, and this mod will admittedly only extend that.

Mod Compatibility:

This should be compatible with any other mod which does not change the lines in the following tables:

  • character_skill_level_to_effects_junction_tables
  • character_skill_nodes_tables
  • land_units_to_unit_abilities_junctions_tables

Only those lines which relate to the aforementioned Mod Changes are changed and included in the mod.

Known Issues:

None
