Additional Affinity Skills

Description
This mod adds one more affinity skill to Initiate, Adept and Master dedication, so you can choose overall between 3 signature skills when unlocking a dedication.

It also slightly reworks a few of the existing skills to give each affinity a clearer focus.


The purpose of this mod is to

- bring back several great tome skills like Manifest Tentacle, Wisp Familiar or Gilded Magic

- add leadership skills to each affinity (the base game only includes leadership skills for animals and undead, the mod adds for example Master Summoner (Astral) and Elemental Smith for Constructs and Elementals (Materium))

- grant each affinity path a specific focus (so a Defender choosing the Order path has clearly different strengths than a Defender with high Chaos affinity)


The complete list of skills can be found here:

It's at least possible to create a 7th signature skill. The Dragon Lord has this on level 8 with the Primal Dragon option. So you could just call this a "new affinity". It should also be possible to add different subskills to the new signature skills.

Yeah, that's probably the reason. It would actually be a trap if it was shown. I will still check if it works correctly though when I have some time for modding again...

Update on that bug report: my heros are starting out with the Master Summoner ability, which could be why it's not showing up as an option. Faction settings are Mystic - Summoning; Mana Channelers; Druidic Terraformers; and Wonder Architects.

Hello, love the mod! Really fills out some possibilities. I do have a bug report: Adept of Astral does not unlock the Master Summoner ability.

I have a bunch of mods running including the tome that give Giant Hero Skills as well as the Hero Tome Skills mod. Could be a conflict? I suspect not though, the other signature skills unlock their extra skills appropriately.

@Diavolo Rosso: Thanks for reporting. It should be fixed now.

I hope you add this to your localization section! Thanks.
