Spirit Lancer - [REUPLOAD]

"Hello heretics! Be warned that this isn't my mod, I'm just reuploading it because it's a nice one and I'm sick of the skin seding the shieldbreaker's other ones to Death's Door as a pile of white bricks.
If the original summoner requests it, I shall remove this at once. I've just seen others want it back and decided to be the one to reupload it.
Happy trails, heretics!"




New Class mod, the one and only Spirit Lancer, for Darkest Dungeon.



Thanks for giving the mod a look. Essentially this mod is the embodiment of me wanting to have my cake and eat it too. The hero/character artwork creator’s initial mod ( https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1665137619&searchtext= ) was simply too annoying for me. I loved the skin, but I also loved shieldbreaker as well. And that skin mod breaks shieldbreaker appearances....so...As I was playing the game with my newfangled skin I joked I'd "Create my own da*n class mod!" So here it is.

Instead of just creating a copy of shieldbreaker, like I did at the start, this mod is now fully its own thing. I've created "new" abilities and their icons, equipment and added more variations of the skin. I think it turned out pretty well.

If you guys have any CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK I'd be happy to take it.



To be honest there is not a lot a meat here, but this is what I came up with:
The Spirit Lancer is a commissioned warrior of light. She seeks out unholy beings in the darkness and depths of crypts and dungeons - to ensure the innocent remain safe from harm. With the Estate now teeming with dark energy and frightening creatures spewing forth, she will not hesitate to cleanse the land as she has done in her own. Hailing from a place beset with demons and monsters, she is a twelfth generation Warrior. Trained for this task and this task alone. Though, she personally seeks to rid the world of demons and their ilk due to a deep-seated hatred of their kind. She slaughters them in droves with both elegance and grace. An expert with her ordained Omni Lance she can be, and ultimately is unmatched in combat.

TLDR. She’s a damage dealer, or at least that’s how I envisioned her.
Most of her skills are pretty OP... I guess. Though they seem 'right on' in my assessment, as I wanted a multi-role fighter, that could do nearly anything you needed. As you can see, that "Have my cake and eat it too" philosophy is coming back into play.
She is entirely focused on herself and dealing damage, with a by-product of creating openings and being useful in general to allies.


There isn't very much here. She has standard stats for the most part. With the exception of SPD and Dodge. Where she tops out at 10 base SPD and 40 Dodge. For SPD I felt she was truly to be the 'light cavalry' in the game. Striking quickly (first) and doing considerable damage at the same time. Reason I gave her so much dodge was because she was somehow getting to Deaths door a little too quickly for my taste. So at least now she'll dodge attacks just that much more. Especially due to her below resistances.


She is practically immune to disease. I did this because I simply can’t have my stand-in Waifu be afflicted with Syphilis. Unacceptable. The story I made up is because in her land they have vaccines for everything. There’s your immersion.

To 'Balance' this she is supremely weak to bleed as to be expected. She's half dressed for Christ’s sake. This said if she ever catches bleed you may want to cure it sooner for her than others. She is weaker to debuffs and traps as well, as if she were in a TV show she'd be an airhead. Everything else is standard.

At the moment she's got base religious camping skills that to be honest work for my current image of her. I may add more or less of them later down the line.
TBD


As previously mentioned, I may or may not continue to update this mod, as its already gone past my original needs.
Though if I were to, the main things that would be fixed is Animations and Localization. Animations primarily to mess around and/or fix combat and idle animations. I am not willing to purchase spine or anything else to fix any of this. So, she'll more likely stay the same.

Localization is something I'd need assistance on, as i only can do English.


If you uninstall this mod (Why would you?), I would recommend a new save. As I’m not sure what you'll encounter. GL.
