What does this mod do?

Short version

It makes Ricochet perk not suck.


Long version

I made this mod after being disappointed with the top level Luck perk Ricochet. I put 2 perk points into Ricochet,
and after more than 40 hours of gameplay it had never happened once. Not one single time (stats screen confirmed).
Shouldn't top level perks actually do something?

With that in mind, Ricochet Refresh makes the following changes.

Bethesda's perk description says "The closer you are to death, the higher the chance." But this was not
implemented, player health did not change odds at all. RR fixes this, making ricochets more likely the lower
your health, but still possible at full health.

Ricochets could only happen to enemies that had less than 100 hp, or less than 40% health. This has been
removed (doesn't make any sense, it's an instant kill anyway). NPCs of any health can be killed by Ricochets.

Ricochets can no longer kill enemies of a higher level, only enemies your level or lower.

Ricochets can no longer kill Legendary enemies.

The chance of ricochet is now also increased by Rank 3 of perk. The chance to fill critical meter is unchanged.

Ricochets are more likely overall.


Known issues

Sometimes while fighting a Legendary enemy the ricochet animation and sound will play, but legendary is not
killed so really only cosmetic issue. I'm not sure why this happens.


Install

Copy the RicochetRefresh.esp to your Data folder. Or use NMM or Mod Organizer. You should be able to
add it to an existing save without a problem.


Uninstall

Don't do that. Not that uninstalling this will break your game, it probably won't. This is just a bad
idea in general.
