Description:
About This Mod

This brings the randomization fun of Amalgamation to Hero classes! This replaces the Hero classes (Skirmisher, Reaper, Templar) with Low Randomization specs.

Each Hero class has locked in Squaddie perks, locked in Captain perks, and smartly randomizes the other perks.

Weapon Rebalance Changes

This mod makes a few changes to Shard Gauntlets to keep Caster Gauntlets from just being superior at Beam tier.

  • Caster Gauntlets grant Meditation, Shard Gauntlets grant Parry.
  • BM tier Caster Gauntlets only grant +1 pip of max focus.
  • Stat bonuses from gained Focus are capped at the fourth tier of stat bonues. This means the fifth pip of Focus from the Caster Gauntlets is purely for using abilities.
  • Damage bonuses for skills are consistent: The Caster Gauntlets deal -2 direct damage, but all skills will deal +1 bonus damage over traditional Shard Gauntlets.
  • Caster Gauntlets can now equip +1 Psionics Ex Machina gem when using PExM.

These changes are done to help make the choice more interesting between a melee Templar and a caster Templar.
