Mod Description
The vanilla Shrieker trinkets don't make the occasional torchless run for loot worth it.
I wanted to rework them, and add more for trinket variety, to actually give players a resource to go torchless. With scaling stats based on low torch, flat buffs based on gems, and a juicy set bonus that lets you avoid Shambler and even Shrieker's nastiest (but battle end) attack.
I want to add a super secret 7th trinket exclusively for the SCRAW class. I will add this later.

Please enjoy this trinket pack, there are more to come!

Note: Due to the set bonus, I had to overrride the base game trinkets by manually removing the vanilla Shrieker trinkets, because the new stats for the original four would not appear. As a result, this mod may conflict with any mod that also modifies base trinkets, such as a trinket rebalance.
I can make a patch to make these trinkets compatible with those mods, and will if people want that. Just tell me what mod(s) you want it to be compatible with!

The trinket set bonus is programmed to be compatible with various other mods, including the Corvid quirks from KCC and modded gems, like the ones found in Sunward Isles, the gems found with the Practitioner mod, and the basic Falconer feathers (I will probably add the rest.) It also included every vanilla "gem", from gem "gems" to Antiquarian antiques, prophet pew wood, and Jute Tapestry. While the cap is 100%, it is very unlikely you will ever have 20 individual gems in your inventory. Similarly, you will need to raise the quirk limit to get all 10 Corvid quirks (7 positive 3 negative).

Note that "darkness" just refers to negative Torch. So the intervals are 67 torch, 34 torch, and 1 torch. This lets you stay at 1 torch, avoid random Shamblers, gather loot, and gain maximum trinket buffs sooner.

Note that the set bonus grants the wearer +300 dodge versus Shrieking Flight, a skill with I believe around 200 accuracy. This will reduce the skill's chance to hit you to the base 5%, making Shrieker farming for quirks and more of the trinkets easier the more you get. I however would not recommend 0 torch Champion Shrieker unless you are feeling gutsy, even with these trinkets.

Finally, "torch stops decaying before 25" means that once the torch ticks below 25 (you usually lose about 5-6 torch per step), the torch will not decrease from movement anymore. You are free to explore at low torch, without running out and encountering a Shambler. Getting an early Citrine (with Crowseye) will also almost entirely prevent getting surprised, if the scouting isn't enough.

These trinkets should just replace the originals if you have them, and (hopefully) add two more to the Shrieker pool.

A lot of manual edits later and I finally have this working with Trinket Plus

@Austere Hare, Its not compatible. This mod changes the base trinket json file and does not work with Void's Trinket separator/ Triket plus. You can manually add the new changes into your own copy of those mods though.

@Austere Hare, Id assume so; Since Trinket Plus and Void's Trinket Separator separates all the base game trinkets. I will test it out as well

I'm unsure why that error is popping up. I may have two crow rarities and that is just a side effect. The Nest has to be a unique rarity for it to drop from the Nest.

Here is my CoM trinket rework pastebin: https://pastebin.com/qqjJUfJz
I have nearly completed it, and will complete it as soon as possible or just remove some minor flavor features I wanted to do and release it as is (all the trinkets are complete, I just need to do an interesting obtainment method). This may be delayed, as I am working on the Red Mountain project.

What's up with the 'Trinket rarity:crow is duplicate, not adding' error when loading?

Also, where could I access that better CoM pastebin you mentioned a little further down?
