Plague Doctor reforged
This mod aims to change unused abilities into ones that aid the classes play style, without changing too much and detracting from the core design.
Plague Doctor is already a strong class, but mainly due to two skills, the double back line stun and double back line blight. These changes should make a front line plague doctor more viable that also does more damage to front targets. as well as better healing to give more team comps that don’t need to vestal/occultist on them.
Incision:
– Changed targets to 1,2,3 (from 1,2)
– Added new effect: +40-50% DMG vs blighted
– Changed position move can be performed from to 1,2 (from 1,2,3)
now can hit 3rd spot and also deal higher DMG against blighted targets, with other abilities and trinkets DMG can get very high on this skill. Paring PD with another blight character makes this skill a lot better.
Emboldening Vapours:
– Now targets allies 1+2 (from 1,2,3,4)
– Changed positions move can be used from to 1,2 (from 1,2,3,4)
Now buffs the PD and other hero in front line, maybe still not the best skill but more likely to be used on bosses etc now as its a bigger reward for spending a turn to use it.
Disorienting Blast:
– Changed launch position to 1,2,3,4 ( from 2,3,4)
– Added new buff: +20% melee skill DMG
– Changed targets to 1,2,3 (from 2,3,4)
In vanilla, this is a pretty useless move as stunning front targets over the back 2 is never worth. Now this move also buffs incision DMG and hits front targets instead of 4th.
Noxious Blast:
– Changed launch position to 1,2,3 (from 2,3,4)
changed to fit with better with front line plague doctor, still allows a strong 4th position though.
Battle Medicine:
– Changed amount healed to (1-3) – (5-6) (from 1-1, 3,3)
– Changed launch positions to 2,3,4 (from 3,4)
With healing trinkets can now be a substantial heal, but must be in back ranks to use.
Balance changes will be updated as I (Or others) play more with the mod.
