как комбинировать моды ?

No. The changes only apply while the mod is loaded. Pre-existing artifacts will get the new changes once the mod is loaded, and they will lose them again once you stop using the mod.

Is it possible to grind for artifacts using this, and/or load this mod with an existing character which has lots of crafting materials to make artifacts, then craft the artifacts with skills bonus, and lastly, load that character with improved artifacts in vanilla game and retaining the skill bonuses one got with this mod?

I've released an update. Here's the changelog:

- Added changes from Update #6 on the public beta to the EE artifacts. Please update your game version with the public beta if you have bought Eternal Embers.

- Added 40% Instant Poison Damage to Golden Eye of Sun Wukong.

i just checked loot plust xmax ftw doesnt have awesome artifact in description ?

Loot Plus XMAX FTW has an x1 version included (so no XMAX) which should be pretty identical to that.

Hey, how you doing?
I'm working on a mod merge. Main focus is to deliver better game experience, without powercreeping or making things go too fast.
The pack combos Loot Plus + Awesome Artifacts + A Few Bug Fixes, that are well balanced.
Is it ok for you that i publishing it here in the Workshop for other players to enjoy?
Be assured that your credits for the mod will be there.
Cheers.

Well, the goal was to make the Divine artifacts worth using, not power creep every artifact in the game. Other artifacts like Shroud of Eternal Night have plenty of power for their level, and while there are others that are less powerful, if every low level artifact had the same level of power then that would be a lot of power creep with low investment from the player.

There's a guide for merging mods linked in the description for Loot Plus. You need to follow the first steps (creating an empty map file and compile an empty mod with the Art Manager) to get the file structure in place. Then you copy the artifact files to the appropriate directories in your Documents/My Games/Titan Quest - Immortal Throne/Working/ folder. From there you can edit the artifacts with Art Manager or a program like Notepad/Notepad++ and then recompile the mod.

they go back to normal

What happens to the Artifact if you log in with out the mod loaded or with a different bounce mod do you loose the gear or does it get reverted back to normal?

I gave you a little present, as a reward: a chest to remember that your Mod is a true treasure.

I finally tried your Mod ... and it's wonderful! Thanks very much, Nappa! In the end the only thing I had to do to fully enjoy it was to change some Artifacts for my characters.

It should be noted that the mod is a bounce mod. Bounce mods redirect you to the character selection screen for Play Titan Quest after launching the mod, so you can use your normal characters for it, you do not need to import a character to Custom Quest, you just need a blank Custom Quest character to launch it. But I guess you figured that out already.

Oh, you are right! (About the skill text). I almost forgot that, cause obviously I am wearing with all my Chara items that match to their tree skills.

About your other explanations, thanks for the info. Now I have a proper idea of how your Mod works.

Whether the skill point text is in yellow or blue depends on whether you have the skill or mastery. Nature and Hunting is in yellow in the screenshots because I took the screenshots on a Ranger. If you pick other masteries for your character then those will be yellow.

The mod needs to be loaded in Custom Maps and does not get stored in your save file, so the items will return to normal if you stop using the mod. There's no way to make it truly permanent, but you can earn achievements while using it. Bounce mods like this one and the XMAX FTW mods I linked in the description do not disable achievements.

I can consider making a database version of the mod which automatically gets loaded, but then any updates to the game will undo the mod.

One last thing: looking at the pictures you uploaded, I have noticed that the writes associated to the Masteries and specific Skills bonus points that you added are in blue (not always, but in many cases). If you could do all of them in yellow, as they are in the other items of the game, it would be nice.

You are partially right: Ares is the God of War (yes), but he fight with a spear and a shield. (and here is my point!). :-) Allow me another question: after subscribing your Mod, it applies automatically to the base game or I need to load a cutom Map before using it? (I am asking this cause in the second case, all the achievements of the game wouldn't work and that would be a problem for me). One last thing: should I try your Mod, and after that unsubscribe it, will the Artifacts automatically return to their original version?

Anyway, I confirm my appreciation for your Mod. I'll consider if I can change the artifacts given to my Chara in order to make it usable for me. If I find a satisfactory way to do it, I'll be more than glad to try your Mod and to give you a feedback after using it.

Thanks for your kind attention, Nappa!

That's not very thematically fitting though. Ares is the god of warfare. The warfare mastery and the battle rage skill fit him perfectly.

Your defense/hunting character would benefit a lot more from Talisman of the Jade Emperor. If you combine it with other items that have -% Recharge (such as Tracker's Hood) then you can get permanent uptime on Call of the Hunt. That's so good it's crazy.

Basically, I would change the masteries added in order to make them match with the characters I have given the artifacts. (For example, in "Ares Blood" I would make "+1" to Defense & Hunt skills). A part from that, only in very rare cases I could improve something else in order to avoid too much powerful artifacts.

@Volkarion You need to extract the files from database.arz in your game directory and create a mod for them, then edit them with either Notepad or the Art Manager. There are several guides for creating mods, there's documentation files in your game directory and you can also use Google.

What sort of differences would you like to make?

Hi, your idea is great. Only, I would like to build different Artifacts from yours. Could you tell me how can I edit them, as you did?

I think so, yes.

Does it work for german Version?

Nappa, it is not possible? aww man

There is an x1 version included with the mod which spawns between 1x to 1.2x mobs, but I don't recommend it because it's too easy with Loot Plus.

...personaly, i would like Loot Plus without XMAX haha or very light version like x1.5

fair enough. Itemization Quest is not my cup of tea, but my merge Loot Plus XMAX FTW does contain AFBF. I might release a version without Loot Plus one day for those who want item drops to be super rare even while fighting multiple bosses and hordes of enemies.

vey nice job, but i would only use it with other mods, first of all Itemisation Quest and AFBF ...

Added to my favorites for sure.
Love the new Poseidon Net and Might of Hephaestus! Well derserved changes for these two that were kinda underwerhlming compared to others imo.

It's not possible to make it permanent.

I just saw that it was only just for the mod, do you think you could make it permanent? lol Is it posible?

No it's not permanent, you either need to keep using the mod or merge it with whatever other mods you want to play with. You can try Loot Plus XMAX FTW.

i tried it but the mod isnt permanent.
still, good job though.
