Anemone's Hag Boss Hero Conversion

Description
Change Log
Tenderize is a bit too strong for a debuff skill and damage skill in one, so I'm lowering base stats and adding them back elsewhere.
-Tenderize ACC lowered by 5
-Tenderize CRIT lowered by 5%
-Hag's Mallet: Add to the Pot: +1 Flat DMG > +10 Tenderizer ACC / +5% Tenderizer CRIT

Uncommon trinkets were too weak. Values doubled.
Ruddy Mortar
+15% -> 30% Debuff Skill Chance if Medicinal Herbs in Inventory
Worn Pestle
+15% -> 30% Blight Skill Chance if Medicinal Herbs in Inventory

Spread the Stain's actor dot effect was causing a crash due to its spread effect, which should be fixed now.

Spawn rates adjusted. Town event rates adjusted.

Into the Pot! will now DMG enemies with Hag's Crown equipped.

Graphics will be updated soon.

Introduction:

The change in her was appalling, and no longer able to stomach it, I sent her to live in the weald, where her wildness would be welcomed.
~ The Ancestor


The Hag is a rank flexible hero specializing in debuffs and blights. She can mark, function as a secondary healer, cure dot and other statuses, and even fix the party after a shuffle.

This Hag boss to hero conversion mod is much more than just a boss to hero conversion. I aimed to create an interesting, balanced, relatively complex, and unique hero using the plentiful art assets available from the base game, including the Hag and much of the Weald. Remaining sounds, skill icons, equipment art, trinket art, and more is commissioned and custom, or being worked on and will be added in the near future.
The Hag has 7 unique combat skills, a modified movement skill, and 7 unique camp skills (none shared).


Features:
- Includes 8 normal trinkets, a Crimson Court set, a Colour of Madness trinket, a Sunward Isles trinket, and a Butcher's Circus trinket (compatible with the non-lite version of the Ringmaster Hero, The Ringmaster's Prizebox, and Single Player Circus Trinkets. You can currently get 3 copies of her Butcher's Circus trinket, but in the future, there will be 3 total, all unique and exclusive to a specific mod! More trinkets to come as well!

- An evolving disease like the Crimson Curse, with 3 stages, and many synergies with the Hag hero! Build a team of fungal zombies commanded by the Hag! Take down the Weald with a taste of their own medicine! Currently only obtained by using the Hag's friendly (hero-targeting) skills, and other heroes with the disease. Treatable with Weald Mold.

- Plentiful use of Weald and Hag assets, as well as a Virtue and Affliction, quirk icons, and skills icons by Ahmonza. You will notice a few placeholders in this beta release, such as her equipment art, which will also be done by Ahmonza. New sounds by Wellington McSkellington!

- Includes 13 new unique quirks (6 Positive, 4 Negative, 3 Diseases), supporting many Hag mechanics and synergies, and providing intersting downsides, upsides, and combinations. Most are only obtainable from the Hag's Nightmare! (30% chance at Camp, once per Dungeon).

- Plans for 3 unique bosses, around 10 unique trinkets, more quirks, 30 Mushroom provisions found by the Hag, and 30 correlating strains of the Mycosis disease chain that draw from each mushroom.

Notes:

The Hag is a rather extensive mod, and as mentioned, this is only the start. As a result, and because this is a beta release, there may be bugs, errors, and the like, though the major ones have been ironed out. To avoid crash issues on an integrated GPU, do not use her Crimson Court set together.

The Hag boss to hero conversion mod will be released in three major phases. The first is this release, Phase One, and includes following releases until this bare-bones version of the mod is polished. Then, I will begin releasing Phase Two updates, larger content updates that seek to expand the base game with creepy, Hag themed content (look through the attached images for a preview). Finally, once Black Reliquary is fully released, Phase Three, a compatibility patch for the Hag and BR will be released, using the bare-bones Phase One version of the mod as the basis.

crashes when infected enemy performed an attack

As cool as it would be to have a boss as a teammate, I can't deal with the Mycosis for any longer. It's untreatable opposed to what the mod description and weald mold says, spreads through teammates, and causes problems. Also the crash of course.

No worry man. Everybody has a life.

Sorry about the lack of updates. I'm dealing with some issues right now that may effect my ability to continue modding. I apologize.
Anemone  [author] 8 Feb, 2023 @ 10:14pm 
DD is a well made game.

What surprises me is that some bugs occur on some computers and not some others. I really wonder why.
Anemone  [author] 8 Feb, 2023 @ 8:39pm 
Good to know. Thanks. It previously worked but something went wrong. I will be able to make these changes, just give it some time. Apologies for the bugs. They'll be ironed out for the full release, and really you can't know how a mod with certain stuff will work without releasing it, so it can be tested on a lot of different computers.

I confirm, it crashes when diseased enemies attack.
I also tried the CC set, knowing I have an integrated GPU. It changed nothing. No crash, but no fungal queen, no "corpses transformed as allied".

It seemed to work at first (infected enemy performed an attack), then it crashed my game, later in the same turn.
It really seems there's a lot in this mod, I hope you'll be able to fix everything.
Anemone  [author] 3 Feb, 2023 @ 5:20pm 
Crash should be fixed btw. Can anyone confirm?
