The Therapist Class Mod

Description
Introduction


A herd of sheep needs its shepherd. Then, with a lion leading the herd, those meek and docile sheep can defeat even the most ferocious of the animals. However, do not expect the beast to attend to the pure in heart forever. Slowly, the beast shall conspire with the most evil of the plot. The one to lead all the thankful into its own maw. Only then it will extend its claws.

Therapist is a supporter, excelling both at offensive and defensive support. He has a whole pack of skills to mix and match from depending on which enemies you are facing. However, do keep in mind that some of them may not come without price.

... After all, he needs a way to draw heroes into depending entirely on him.

Debuff Based Daze



Debuff Based Daze is the version of daze which works on debuff resist and chance, instead of stun resist and chance (the latter of the two is used for DD2 or Butcher's Circus). It was devised to mimic DD2 daze. Enemies who are dazed will act last, and you cannot daze already stunned/dazed enemies.

Combat Skills
Through a lifelong practice of psychiatry, the Therapist realized that what he needs is more than just tending to the ill; that he needs to make ones fall ill by any means was his verdict. Even though his practices may bring temporary relief, you will find yourself coming back to him. No escape, and you fell hook, line, and sinker once you have found his adjuvant helpful.



Camp Skills
Even during the expedition's respite, his work continues. Even though his methods are dubious and sometimes downright damaging, his recipes are bound to work. With any measures he deems appropriate, he is hell bent on fixing any blight plaguing the companions.

Miscellaneous
  • Therapist is a non-religious hero.

  • The Claimants' book originally belonged to him.
  • His district is 'Athenaeum'.
  • His CRIT effect is debuffing the dodge of the entire enemy party by 10. (150% base)
  • Due to the nature of RNG, if used as Therapist's first skill of the quest, Imprinting will always grant Steady.
  • For detailed explanation, refer to this document[docs.google.com].

Known Issues
  • Turning the mod off while at least one enemy is dazed will lead to softlock.
  • If Imprinting tries to give a positive quirk that the target already has, it will display a disease resist popup instead.
  • New Game+ Compatibility Mod: Recommended for those who use Therapist with alternative NG+ HP buff number.

soooo I am in absolute love with the concept and art of this mod.

I'm making a replacer for occultist that switches all his art and skills with therapists (tentacles seem to be a common theme between theme and I've gotten bored with occultists visuals).

Would it be okay if I posted it publicly and credit you? If not - no worries

I've noticed he has some negative barks against certain heroes when using psychotherapy on them- I have a suspicion it's on the less human ones- so far I've seen this consistently with the Rampart and the Enigma.

Really cool class design all around! The theme of extremely powerful buffs being coupled with long-term defects is a super cool and fun concept for a character. Though I do feel like his Eldritch Intervention skill is pretty overturned. Not only is it extremely powerful but I feel like it is outright better than a similar move Occultist has in most situations, even without the bonus debuffs applied from token removal.

It would be fun if Leucotomy completely removed all positive and negative quirks; essentially resetting the character.

Maybe even have it come with an incurable disease called "Lobotomized", that prevents the character from obtaining quirks. Permanently damaging the character.

I think imprinting should be a camp skill, that or give it another use after granting a quirk.

the stress was too much for people that they had to create a therapist class lmao
