UPDATE 1.37H:

JOBS LEVEL UP TOGETHER:
  • An optional mod that makes one character’s jobs level up together, for example when you gain EXP for Ichiban’s Freelancer job, every Ichiban’s other jobs gain the same amount of EXP too.
  • For balancing purposes, every job needs 8X the normal amount of EXP to reach max level (99). Of course this is exponential growth, which means it requires the normal amount of EXP on early levels, more on later levels and capped at 8X the normal amount.
  • Have 2 versions, one work with normal Gameplay Rebalance and one work with Seong-hui Over Nanba.
  • For existing saves, Ichiban uses Hero job’s EXP for his other jobs, other characters use their default job’s EXP.
  • This changes one of the game’s core mechanics (job changing) so don’t recommend it for first time players.
  • On existing saves, please change job once for each character to force the game recalculate job level and exp. With how the new job EXP calculated and with high a high rank job level, you may lack few hundred job EXP to actually reach that rank which lead to your job EXP bar won't fill up/tick for quite some time until you fill that gap :P
* No more job switching?
**  I think I should make this mod grow even faster on low level. It requires a fortune of EXP to grow and grow  like a turtle with jobs ranked ~30 up :/


GAMEPLAY REBALANCE:
  • Add 20% increased hit chance to all jobs’ normal attack (match with normal skill’s increased hit chance).
  • Add +150% Magic buf to Saeko - Honjo Masamune.
  • Reduce Nanba - Essence of Thunder Storm’s magic power from +300% to +120%.
  • Change Hostess - Nail Scratch’s attribute from Blade/Ice to Blunt/Ice.

PART-TIME HERO: split to 3 optional choice
  • Quests unlocked only.
  • Quests unlocked, all Takedown requests require beating the enemy once instead of 10 times.
  • Quests unlocked, all Delivery requests are ready to report, all Takedown requests require beating the enemy once instead of 10 times.
* For a replay without running those time consuming delivery quests.

QUICKER ACHIEVEMENTS: split to 3 optional choice
  • Quicker only (requirement reduced to 1/3).
  • Some mini games challenges (mostly card mini games) completed, others quicker.
  • All mini games and adventure challenges completed, others quicker.
* For a replay without running those time consuming challenges.

EASIER MINI GAME:
  • Golf: No wind, double bingo point range, half gauge speed (stock some Illegal Boots if you grind the 8X difficulty start from 2X).

BUG FIXES: Fixed some mismatch values in skills’ description.

UPDATE 1.37G:

DIFFICULTY SCALED:
  • Change the default version to 3X instead of 2X one (like 2X means easy and 3X means normal difficulty).
  • Add 5 modified versions that start from 1.2/1.4/1.6/1.8/2.0X instead of 1X (turn boring beginning tutorials to somewhat more interesting battles).
  • Change sub mods’ name for clearer information.
* Some battles on the 2.4X start need perfect guard and some luck.
** You can switch difficulty mod anytime by editing the ModLoadOrder.txt file.

UPDATE 1.37F:

GAMEPLAY REBALANCE:
  • Increase Hundred Fists of Asura’s attack debuff from 15% to 35% (single target balance).
  • Add a copy of Guns of the Forefathers as Joon Gi Han’s level 65 character skill.
  • Add a copy of Hundred Fists of Asura as Adachi’s level 65 character skill.
  • Add a copy of Essence of the Dragon God as Tian Zhao’s level 65 character skill.
  • Add a modified copy of Raging Tiger Cyclone as Nanba’s level 65 character skill (Blunt to Magic).
  • Add a copy of Demonfire Rain as Saeko’s level 65 character skill.
  • Add a modified copy of Miracle Donation as Eri’s level 65 character skill (Magic to Blade).
* “Do you guys not have phones?” -  Ichiban, at some outdoor market.

EQUIPMENTS:

  • All 3 Omelette’s egg types (Omelette will drop these “talking” with you, randomly) now can be purchased at the Fumie shop.
* Prize somewhat balanced with how much you received as Part-time Hero reward.

BUG FIXES:
  • Fix 8X version's bad formula leading to game stuck as second battle (using skill tutorial).
  • Fix Business Management mini game stuck (randomly) at releasing employees tutorial.
  • Fix Nanba’s hair glitch caused by roaming costume mod.

  • Run the RyuModManagerCLI.exe ONCE for it to merge the mod’s files.
  • Run the game and ENJOY.
  • (above steps seem confusing but if you have trouble, just check 1- do RyuModManagerCLI.exe, mods folder and the data folder stay in the same place? 2- inside the mods folder have 5 folders with Premium… name or not? 3- Is there anything wrong when running RyuModManagerCLI.exe?)

LANGUAGE COMPATIBLE ISSUE:

If you use a different language than English, you need to do ONE of following to make this mod work:
  • Easier way by JeyLeNoire: Change language to English and that's all.
  • Keeping your language way: Go to each mod folder (media\mods\Premium... folders), there will be db.yazawa.en and a en sub folder inside it, change both en part to your language (de with German so db.yazawa.de and de subfolder). Also there is a folder inside Seong-hui mods that called ui.yazawa.en, just change its name and en folder inside too.
