Improved Tooltips for Dungeon Siege III by Flix
==========================
This mod overhauls all the tooltips for the game to better clarify the effects of all Stats, Abilities, Proficiencies, Talents, & Items. It also aims to create more consistency between the three Dungeon Siege titles.
DSIII uses a lot of oddball terms for everyday ARPG stats, which can cause a lot of head-scratching and wiki-consulting for new players.
I put special emphasis on converting DSIII's stats into terminology familar to players of the previous Dungeon Siege games.
==========================
Overview of Changes:
Stamina = Health
Focus = Mana
Attack = Attack Damage (when space permits, to emphasize that this stat increases weapon damage only and has nothing to do with hit chance, which does not exist in DSIII).
Will = Ability Damage
Agility = Critical Chance
Doom = Critical Damage
Stagger = Chance to Stun
Warding = Stun Retaliation
Retribution = Damage Reflection
Momentum = Mana Regen
Chaos: Vampire = Life Leech
Chaos: Fire = Chance to Burn
Chaos: Lightning = Chance to Electrocute
Chaos: Poison = Chance to Poison
Chaos: Ice = Chance to Freeze
Chaos: Bloodletting = Chance for Bleeding
==========================
Installation:
- Extract the "global" folder from inside the mod's zip file into the "data" folder of your Dungeon Siege III installation.
- For example the structure will look like: C:\Games\Dungeon Siege III\data\global
- To uninstall just delete the "global" folder
- This mod was made to support the "Treasures of the Sun" DLC. It may or may not work correctly without the DLC installed.
