About this mod
This is a serious and balanced mod that overhauls all the Spells and Actions in the game. Their values, their costs, and even their mechanics. A lot of math were done to keep the game's difficulty and, at the same time, make combat more fluid and full of options. You will have all the details in the description.

This mod has a lot of work behind it, not just the programming itself, but all the hours spent doing mathematical calculations so that everything makes sense and is balanced, and all the hours spent on the Google Sheets documents so that you can see all these changes in a simple and clear way.
I hope you enjoy this in-depth work, and that, if you can and want to, support me to the best of your ability.
Thank you so much.
PATCH#4 COMPATIBLE - 5e SPELLS COMPATIBLE - ENGLISH/SPANISH LANGUAGES
This mod reviews all the Spells, Actions, and Illithid Powers in the game, and modifies the vast majority of them.
Sometimes only the values are modified, other times the costs, and other times even the mechanics.
If you want a graphic way to understand what I am trying to explain, It is best to follow the links that I will leave below.
There you can see my work in full. My progress, and my goals, in addition to the periodic updates that I will be doing.
This mod has 2 versions:
Kombat Overhaul - Vanilla Way (KOVW)
The minimum damage and healing have been increased, and the maximum has been reduced. This keeps the overall average damage and healing similar, but reduces the randomness of the results. Not all Spells have the same average damage/healing after these changes, some have been slightly reduced, and others slightly increased. These changes apply to both the player and NPCs, both allies and enemies.
You should keep in mind that although some average damage/healing is lower compared to the vanilla game, the damage/healing are now more constant since there is less RNG and more precise numbers. Do not just look at the minimum, maximum or average values, since "consistency" is something that you must take into account.
🧙🏻♂️ KOVW → SPELLS
⚔️ KOVW → ACTIONS
🦑 KOVW → ILLITHID POWERS
Kombat Overhaul - Easy Way (KOEW)
Only the minimum values are increased but the maximum values are maintained, this increasing the average damage. And in general all the healings have been increased. And these changes also apply to NPCs, both allies and enemies.
This version is designed for players who want a calmer experience, since in general the game difficulty is reduced.
🧙🏻♂️ KOEW → SPELLS
⚔️ KOEW → ACTIONS
🦑 KOEW → ILLITHID POWERS

Mod compatibilities:
This Mod IS compatible with ANY other type of Mod, except those that modify existing Spells and Actions in the default game (with some exceptions).
This Mod modifies the code of existing spells in the game, it does not create new spells. And although it adds a lot of code made by me, all this code is aimed at making the changes I intend to work, but I repeat, all this code only affects the already existing spells, nothing more. So it is perfectly compatible with all those mods that add new spells without modifying existing ones.
On the other hand, it should be compatible with any Mod that modifies specific Spells/Actions (i.e. just one Spell/Action, or several of them), just make sure to load the Mod you want as a base first, and then the Mod that you want to "overwrite" the base Mod.
* You ask me this a lot so I hope this resolves your doubts.

* This mod could not be finished without the little help and advice from third parties, which is why a healthy modding community is so important.
