Overview

This mod was designed to add a unique feature to the game  during the regular course of your gameplay. The mod replaces three rune effects in the game: the original Triglav Rune stun effect with the instant kill effect, the Stribog Rune stagger effect with a critical hit % increase effect, and the Perun focus gain effect with a critical damage bonus effect. Originally, this mod was developed with game version 1.07 of TW3. Please follow all of the instructions in the ReadMe.txt file to minimize any possible errors that may arise during the installation process.

Compatibility

This mod should be compatible with game version 1.07+ as long as the "def_item_upgrades.txt" file does not change in any of the future software updates. For example, the addition, modification, or removal of any rune or glyph types.

Conflicts
This mod will conflict with any other mod that modifies the "def_item_upgrades.xml" file located inside of the patch.bundle that can be found in the "The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Install Directory\content\patch0\bundles" directory.
