Lionheart Heroes: Vestal

LHH Vestal Balance
Changes from version 1.3


*Explanantion* The notable changes this time are swapping judgement's hp heal for a self stress heal, and the changes to illumination and hand of light. Judgement is simply because a small stress heal should be more useful.

Illumination and Hand of Light... I thought to myself the biggest flaws of frontline Vestal-low damage (compared to typical frontliners) and losing her stun option. She still has Divine Comfort as an awesome aoe heal and illumination can hit all positions just like judgement (but very much weaker). So i figured the main thing battle vestal is missing compared to backlines is her stun.

Looking at the actual attack animations, i never liked how a sword represents loss of dodge (plus accuracy in my last version) and an upwards fist seems it should maybe buff damage, not nerf. Based on these anesthetics and my design choices i swapped the damage debuff to Illumination and put a Stun om Hand of Light.

I am considering increasing Hand of Light's range and possibly stun chance to Target. OOOX and Stun 110%-150%. Im also considering changing dazzling light's targets to XOOO

IMPORTANT NEWS i have a heroes.string mod underway that accompanies my other mods by changing some skill names. One such change is to Vestal's Illumination-renamed Sealing Sword. Other changes also exist andi will take suggestions for cool renames! This is mostly fluff to better express the changes and reworks to skills, but it may become necessary for some mods in the future if i need to adjust or add tooltip features (i will be sure to mention that in the mod description). Unfortunately steam uploader always seems to give me trouble when i try to get it to run localizations, so it may be a bit delayed but i guess that gives me time to hear name ideas!

MORE NEWS I also am finally making a collective mod for all my LHH mods that will be updated along with my revisting my current mods, all the way to me eventually completing my hero roster. This is for those who enjoy all my mods but only want to keep up with 1 mod's updates and have just one mod active. So far my Crusader, Highwayman, Plague Doctor, and Vestal changes are included. I will include the localization mod with this by default and it should be released in a few days. Don't worry, i will continue to update the individual mods as well as LLH Collector's edition in the future.

Self stress heal on jugment does not seem to work or did you mean self heal? Self Heal Stress 3, 3, 4, 4, 5

Oh yes sorry that only lasted briefly when i was testing it, must have been my mistake to post it in the change notes. Vestal and several of my other heroes have been reworked and updated for CoM. More on the way
