• PProfitablePlayerPortby 76561198452588290Hey there, this mod changes some values from the player-owned ports (the neutral ports you can expand *from the base game) to make it more profitable; so it would pay for the investment faster or perhaps as a side income while you travel around and do other stuff. Like cartography, or completing...1.0k downloadsupdated 6 y ago
• RRoll for Initiativeby ProminenceROLL FOR INITIATIVE This is a simple mod that randomizes turn order when combat begins. Essentially, it sets all units' starting TTA to zero, then adds a random amount (1-40) to their TTA. Subscribe to this mod if you want some variety in who goes first in combat. This could be seen as an alterna...812 downloadsupdated 4 mo ago

• BBlood Modby RabbitA fun little mod that causes enemies to leave pools of blood when hit. The blood can be used to electrocute but it doesn't affect balance too much. Bladed weapons create twice the amount of blood.329 downloadsupdated 5 y ago
• CClass Innate Passivesby 76561198354125824Class Innate Passives AUTHOR - Greg Murrell THANKS - McFrugal and RyMarq for design feedback DESC - This mod simulates having classes come with a passive innately (for free) when equipped as the primary class.

• WWarpblade Class Requirementsby 76561198354125824Changes the class requirements of Warpblade to depend on Warrior classes. Class requirements now changed to 700 Blade and 250 Krakenslayer.

• TTrue Beastmaster (TamerPlus) - Anti-Lag Updateby WaveThis mod upgrades the vanilla Tamer skill into a full-blown Beastmaster passive. How to recruit a monster: First, be sure you have room in your party. The default party size is 5 but TamerPlus supports other party sizes. As long as you have a free spot, you're good to go. Next, make sure the crea...248 downloadsupdated 17 d ago

Cure now additionally applies Guard and Regen to all Cured targets that lasts for 5t and 20t respectively, plus target and caster Life skill. Dispel...240 downloadsupdated 12 mo ago
• BBetter Cleever Lootby WaveThe two types of naval encounters are fleets and sea monsters. All sea encounters fall into these two categories. Despite having a fleet, Cleevers are sea monsters. For this reason, Cleever boats always self-destruct when defeated, even if you killed it by rendering it crewless. I suppose this is...222 downloadsupdated 9 mo ago
• OOffhand Attack Tweaks for Ambidexterityby WaveImportant: Be sure this mod is loaded AFTER/BELOW my other mod, Punch Daggers are Daggers, if you use it. Otherwise, you will lose the effects of OATs on Dual Strike! This mod adjusts the vanilla Dual Strike and Thousand Fists formulas to utilize w2:magnitude instead of the weapon's base Power di...217 downloadsupdated 10 mo ago
• MMafe optional and toggleable balance changesby MafeA collection of changes to some base game stats and mechanics, or complettly new ones. All of those changes are OFF by default and its up to the player to choose which ones to turn ON. Some changes, when ON, will add an extra text to the mechanic they affect to explain they effects. Those mechani...183 downloadsupdated 10 mo ago
• GGatewarder Class Requirementsby 76561198354125824The corollary to my "Warpblade Class Requirements" mod. If Gatekeeper is a Scholar, and Warpblade is a Warrior, why not Gatewarder as a Scout? He curiously works as a Scout: a wind-based main attack with no charge time, an ally re-positioning ability, and a buff that nullifies "ranged" attacks, a...163 downloadsupdated 6 y ago
• MMechanistPlusby WaveFinally! Feels like I've been working on this forever. MechanistPlus Features: 32 New Turrets From the mundane Spike Turret to the terrifying Megazooka, you can now cast "Set Turret" on many different items to create entirely new turret types! Internal Crafting System Make a Workstation wherever...161 downloadsupdated 3 mo ago
• PPunch Daggers are Daggersby WaveImportant: Be sure this mod is loaded BEFORE/ABOVE my other mod, Offhand Attack Tweaks for Ambidexterity, if you use it. Otherwise, you will lose the effects of OATs on Dual Strike! This mod adds some element associations so that Punch Daggers (Katars and punch daggers added by other mods include...152 downloadsupdated 6 mo ago
• EEnchanterPlusby WaveImportant! This mod should not be used with Mafe's tweaks for the Enchanter or Elemental Unity - Enchanter Compatibility. Elemental Unity comes with the content of this mod built-in as a separate class with identical appearance and unlock conditions as the regular Enchanter. So you don't need bot...142 downloadsupdated 6 mo ago
• BBackshiftby WaveAdds the extra damage from Backstab to Counter Warp's active hit and Shift Stab if the target is facing you and the jump behind them is successful. Huge thanks to aulonne for the new formulas that make this damage bonus more accurate to the normal function of Backstabber. It should provide a +15%...138 downloadsupdated 8 mo ago

Also deals some damage to your own hull. Mythril Ram deals less self-damage and more damage to enemies. Harpoon: Now cuts enemy movement...136 downloadsupdated 2 mo ago
• BBreakerPlusby WaveAdjusts some Breaker attributes and abilities. I'm not sure whether this is a nerf, a buff, or neither. It's something. The idea is to encourage using hammers (as opposed to fists, which are more accurate) or flails (for a little extra range) and toughen up the class without removing its identity...121 downloadsupdated 12 mo ago
• DDangerous Initiativeby WaveMy take on the initiative roller mod genre. This mod is similar to the classic Roll for Initiative, but with a few tweaks and additions: All starting timer rolls are a percentage of the unit's base act time. For most humanoids, this is 30 base time - even for Scurio. The roll is 2 + 0-60% of base...119 downloadsupdated 7 mo ago
• VVeteran RUIN Bonusesby RabbitAdds the passives and bonuses from RUIN difficulty on all difficulties. Buffs on humanoids and classes are not added though. (There are more RUIN bonuses than just passives, so expect some enemies to have increases in certain stats.) WARNING: Don't turn on RUIN difficulty, crashes game. It should...109 downloadsupdated 6 y ago
• CCombat Optionsby Liminal WarmthCombat Options Combat Options offers numerous combat-related quality-of-life customizations under a single mod config menu.

• VVanilla+: We Didn't Start the Pyreby WaveThis mod adjusts Pyre to react to the caster's Wet, Chilled, Oiled or Burning state. Wet and Chilled will reduce the damage and make the ability AoE smaller, while Oiled and Burning increase the damage, and only Oiled makes the AoE bigger. Each status adjustment corresponds directly to the damage...99 downloadsupdated 16 mo ago
• WWrath of the Economancerby WaveNow has Mods menu settings. Ever felt like trading was a little too easy? Well, so does the Economancer, and he's come to put a stop to that. This mod decimates the local economy by increasing the buy and sell prices of most items. All item buy prices: 2x All trade good sell prices: 1x (unchanged...95 downloadsupdated 12 d ago
• GGranular Unit Speedby juniper_ascending-Adds Time To Act modifiers to many classes and items in the game -Adds a new accessory, the Reaction Band, which makes units act faster This is in a very early stage, and feedback about balance or new potential features is very much welcome. This mod doesn't currently include Misc Weapons in its...94 downloadsupdated 6 y ago
• PPoor Swimmersby WaveNobody in Eral can swim. Everyone knows that. And yet it takes so long for the average sailor to drown. Curious! This mod dramatically shortens the time it takes for a drowning unit to instantly die (of drowning) if they are not saved. 300t -> 90t, to be precise. Get those ropes a-haulin'! This m...79 downloadsupdated 16 mo ago
• CCrippling KOsby WaveNow has Mods menu settings. Ever thought your guys weren't injured enough after a grueling battle? Well, no longer. This mod adds a 75% chance for each KO incurred by any player unit to cause one of 6 random debuffs. Each debuff weakens 3 of that unit's weapon or magic skills for 2 weeks of in-ga...62 downloadsupdated 6 mo ago
• MMultishot Frenzy Nerfby WaveExactly what it looks like. Frenzy MP Cost increased (3 -> 8) Accuracy decreased (100% -> 70%) Multishot MP Cost increased (4 -> 8) Accuracy decreased (95% -> 65%) Quick maths: Pummel (for comparison) 50% weapon damage x3-5 @50% acc = 0.75x - 1.25x damage (with tremendous variance) for 4MP Vanill...52 downloadsupdated 7 mo ago
• DDisrupt Shot Nerfby WaveThis mod removes the ruinTouch element from Disrupt Shot. In an unmodified game, the ruinTouch element is what causes it to deal 1.34x more damage per debuff on the enemy. This bonus stacks with itself quadratically, e.g. 1 debuff = 1.34x damage, 2 debuffs = 1.34 * 1.34 = 1.8x damage, and so on....50 downloadsupdated 13 mo ago
• GGuard Nerfby WaveThis simple mod nerfs Guard's effectiveness against Physical damage. Physical attacks against a Guarded unit will deal 65% damage (instead of 50%) with this mod installed. It works by multiplying the existing damage multiplier of Guard by 1.3x again (0.5 * 1.3 = 0.65). So it should stack with any...47 downloadsupdated 16 mo ago

• AAbility Shuffleby McFrugal!!WARNING!! After running the script, the game will crash at launch if any custom class mods are active that have class exp requirements, which is almost all of them. Shuffles around abilities randomly, distributing them to classes like a deck of cards. There's no telling where your favorite abil...33 downloadsupdated 5 y ago
