About this mod

Conjuring weapons to attack from range like a caster, featuring custom VFX made inside the toolkit. Pick between two Sub-classes with distinct play styles and visuals, a single sword conjuror that focuses on single target or a four swords conjuror that is AOE focused. This is the reworked version my initial mod with alot of changes & improvemen

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
This is the reworked version of my earlier mod, the Sword Mage class and the one I will maintain for the future. Changes:

  • Reanimated all the skills, statuses
  • Class reworked
  • Second Subclass added
  • Found a way to connect attacks with floating swords visually (mainly in the OneSwordStyle Subclass)

Sword Mage is a spell caster that conjure blades to cut down foes, Spells scale with MainhandWeaponDamage and STR + INT.The class has a level 20 progression (but honestly the character power you get past level 12 might be too op). Sword Mage Class branches into two different play-styles




One Sword Style


Conjure & command a singular sword. Focuses on single target, features high range spells, triggers and a stacking passive (Scales with INT) that helps you single out foes, shaving away the odds in your favor.





Four Swords Style


Conjure & command a large arsenal of swords that devastates the battlefield. Comprise entirely of AOE attacks you cover the battlefield in destruction. But be careful as your swords does not differentiate foes from friends(Apart from Basic attacks)

Abilities' Visuals Showcase





Possible future additions (No guarantees as I do have some interest in making other classes):

  • I am open to maintain different models for the swords if somebody has a good quality model with rights/permission, or if I ever get around to making it myself
  • If somebody has a good idea for another subclass that is distinct enough to filling the fantasy archetype
  • Possible new skills
  • Visuals are far from perfect or polished and I may return to polish it up more in the future or add new ones
  • Class balance / bug fixes etc
  • Not the biggest fans of some icons, looks washed inside the game may replace them in the future.

Known issues that I don't know how to fix:

  • Attacks lading before animations. This is a trade off to allow the swords to dissapear and reappear by using interrupts.
  • Don't run OTHER interrupts on the sword mage character ( other characters are fine) with the trigger event on spell cast and spell hit, and make sure interrupts are on auto. ( I believe one character having multiple interrupts for the same event set to auto, will cause one of them to not trigger)
  • Cull sources that is similar to tadpole one prevent on kill effects from going off. Can't fix it in the toolkit as far as I can tell as the KillingBlow() event never gets triggered
  • Some times slight disconnect between swords remove and add. There is a 0.2 ish seconds period that can affect animation.
  • Idle swords animations can take a minute to disappear. I don't know off a way to force stop a rendered animation, so depending on when you enter combat or used sealed swords it can take some time to finish its animation.
  • Same deal with entering a cut scene , the status gets reapplied and the previous one can takes a minute to disappear.
  • Sometimes triggers just don't work for a turn. Honestly might be a toolkit's testing environment issue, feels very random.
  • Sometimes on kill effects triggering multiple times with overkill? or additional dmg ticks?
  • Not hitting a target with an aoe melee skill like the fourswordstyle's basics wont trigger the interruptions.
