Description:
What this Mod does is tweak the effect Willpower has on Holy Smite. Characters with low willpower will do less damage than original, but investing points in willpower will have a more positive effect. Willpower at 20 will do exactly the same damage as the original game.

The original game gives 0.4 spirit and mana damage per willpower point, this tweak gives 0.8, 1.2 or 1.6 depending on the version you use. Half that against non mages.

This a simple tweak to try out and see how it effects your game. Feedback encouraged.

Copy talent_aoe_instant.ncs to packages\core\override to install.

If Holy Smite doesn't seem Smitey enough, try a different version.

Spirit and Mana Damage against Mages:

WM VD T2 T3 T4
+00 40 36 32 28
+10 44 44 44 44

etc.

Spirit Damage against everything else:

WM VD T2 T3 T4
+00 20 18 16 14
+10 22 22 22 22

etc.


Key:
WM - Willpower modifier=Willpower-10
VD - Damage from Vanilla Holy Smite
T2 - Damage from tweaked Holy Smite Willpower Modifier x2
T3 - Damage from tweaked Holy Smite Willpower Modifier x3
T4 - Damage from tweaked Holy Smite Willpower Modifier x4

A new variation to try, the Holy Smack em in the Head Version (HSHV), per DaiBi's vision:

100 base mana drain plus 5 mana drain per willpower. Spirit Damage is as per vanilla, with mages getting added to that half of the mana damage applied to spirit damge. Everything else get vanilla damage.

You can't take Holy Smite until level 15, and a mage at around that level will have a minimum of 155 health and somewhere around 280 mana. So this spell will be pretty devastating against mages.
