DESCRIPTION - WHAT IT DOES
• Compiles 14-16 30 special attack animations for humanoid NPCs depending on equipped weapon. • Functions via power attack animations and a random variable. (.35 for the 15 base type attacks, .15 for the 15 new special attacks) • Special attacks happen about 10-20% of the time. • Based on Class keyword to apply to a variety of NPCs, allowing "bosses" and normal NPCs to use the attacks. • Adds a new, dangerous layer to combat as the specials hurt (quite a bit). • Possibility of all 68+ animations from Ashes of War usable by NPCs in the future.
