About this mod
Restores a cut vitality increase buff that's given by Verna shrines around Velen. This version supports the Next-Gen Update

- Changelogs
THIS VERSION IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE NEXT-GEN UPDATE(4.04) ONLY. FOR A VERSION COMPATIBLE WITH 1.32 SEE HERE.
Overview
In the Witcher 3 there is an unused icon and associated definition for a buff that raises Geralt's vitality for a period of time. A further source(user Flipper444) has indicated that this buff could be obtained by interacting with the many statues of the local deity Verna located around Velen - No Man's Land. These statues still exist in the vanilla game but are nothing more than world decoration. This mod simply restores the cut the buff and allows interaction with a select few of these statues so that they give the buff.
Mechanics
Simply walk up to one of the Verna statues that this mod has enabled interaction with and interact with it to gain a +20% buff to maximum vitality for 30 minutes. You will only be able to get the buff if you don't currently have a Vitality Raise buff active. This mod enables interaction with 5 statues in Velen-No Man's Land. All of them feature
the a shrine housing. Statues without the shrine housing will not be interactable. Four of the statues feature Verna as a creepy looking older woman while a fifth features a younger Verna(same as they appear in Vanilla). These shrines are akin to the Weather Shrines on Faroe as they are supposed to be a hidden secret with no map indication. As of version 1.2 I've added witcher sense highlighting to each shrine to make them easier to spot. I've changed my stance on this since the original version because the weather shrines were also super unfinished and CDPR would have probably added witcher sense highlighting to them if they had the time to finish them. In case you do want to know the locations of these statues ahead of time, I have included a map with their locations marked in the images sections of this mod page.
Installation
Unpack modShrineRestoration to your 'Mods' folder and unpack 'dlcshrinerestoration' to you 'dlc' folder. If either isn't there create it. Use ScriptMerger to merge all scripts as resolve any conflicts for non mergable files. As of version 1.2 this mod now has a dlc component which should eliminate all xml conflicts. If you are updating from an older version be sure to DELETE the older version before installing. This mod however must win all w2l file conflicts for it to fully work. If one of these files is overridden then you will simply lose the ability to interact with one of the statues.
