Description
Main Concept

This Rework aims to remove Antiquarian dodge cheese gimmick and instead solidify her in a support role, capable of acting like a solo healer. She mainly interacts with her own party, by curing negative effects, giving stealth, reshuffling other heroes or even buffing damage. She is also able to mess with the enemy party with shuffle and stumble, debuff or simply blights.

Overall

Since antiquarian will not be able to prevent as much dmg as she used to (through dodge buff and Acc debuff) she has been given a +5 dodge and +1 speed at every levels. This should help her to survive more easily despite having the lowest hp in the game and to outspeed her own teammates to make her support skills more valuable. Antiquarian passives have not been changed.

my favorite mod that i've used for years everytime i come back. I've never really found a use for the stealth stress heal though

The good: Tactical cowardice looks interesting, flashpowder as well, even if the -speed is sorta like discount bellow, meaning it suffers more because of debuff roll chance, fortifying vapours look like a mix between cry havoc and divine comfort, good healing potential w trinkets, soothing mist - interesting panic button/wild card. protect me - the change is ok, the dodge synergyzed well with invigorating vapours but i get the point.
The bad: Even lower dmg on anti since no nervous stab, only DOTs, so if you go down a couple people, you're even more fkd in the long run.
Overall the main appeal I see is make anti work with dance teams. :story:

Oh I hadn't really considered trinkets or the medical spices synergy, I feel a bit silly now lol
Thanks for explaining!

With Candle of life or Master's Essence it becomes a 5-6 heal, in addition to a 35% chance to heal for 3 every other heroes. So it will proc more than once per use on average. Meaning you get more than 8-9 heal per skill use (with higher chance to crit) on a hero that is able to cure DoT and buff healing recieved. This make it really easy to keep a party healthy

A 3-4 heal at rank 5 seems a little low to me for a "solo healer", unless I'm missing something there?

Hi again, it's me. I recently found your Vestal Rework, and might i say it brings her into the spotlight. No longer does she have to just sit in the back. If she gets pulled out of the backline. It's no issue now. I also like the Abomination rework, 10/10. You put a lot of thought into these and make them incredibly good in my opinion out of most reworks that i've come across. I'm hoping to see reworks for classes like Plague Doctor, MAA, and Crusader. These 3 heroes are good vanilla wise. But i feel like their skills and kits are lacking a bit.

@Mr.Pepper Glad to hear, I can't wait to see what is in store for in the future! But no rush, take your time.

@_ALuX_ Thanks a lot ! I had a lot of fun doing a class that mainly interact with the party to keep the escort mission vibe. I am currently taking a small break from modding but I intend to come start working back on other reworks soon

I have this mod active on my current run and I my antiquarian has pretty much become my MVP whenever I bring her. Minor healing? Check. Debuff removal? Check. Blight? Check? Hoards of cold, hard cash? Check. And what makes this mod even better is that antiquarian still feels like an antiquarian. Ten out of ten in my book.

PS: do you happen to have any other reworks in development? I'm thoroughly enjoying the ones you've made, especially for antiquarian and vestal.
Mr.Pepper  [author] 12 Jul, 2021 @ 12:58am 
Well Antiquarian has uses outside of her money making, she is a pretty good hero but imo not a really fun one. I can't speak for Unchained but this rework aim to be in vanilla level of balance, for the changes (in general or in detail) I redirect you to the mod description
