Infected
I finally updated this mod :D It's been completely rebalanced and contains a ton of new stuff!
You are not ill; you are a weapon. A host to a menagerie of plagues, your body is a battleground you have learned to command. Every joint aches with power, every fever fuels your spells. You wade into battle, letting your infections flare and spread, hammering foes with disease-charged blows or scouring them with projected corruption. You are the source of the outbreak, and your resilience is the only thing holding the chaos within you at bay—because every plague you unleash gnaws at your own life just as eagerly as your enemies.
Mechanics:
The Infected is designed as a tanky melee/spellcasting hybrid that specializes in utilizing and manipulating their own unique diseases (Infections) which affect both themselves and their enemies.
• Spread Blight: Spread up to 6 unique Infections, ravage your enemies with the now-actually-useful Poison Storm, and watch them die to your limitlessly stacking Decay.
• Hybrid Combat: Play as a tough melee fighter that weaves spellcasting and corruption into their attacks.
• Tactical Movement: Engage with position-based talents that reward precision and grant useful short-range movements during combat.
• Backlash: Specialize in the Undying Resilience tree to gain Backlash, an alternate “health pool” that absorbs burst damage when you're low on life, but pays it back as greatly increased damage over time.
Balancing
• This class is currently not that well-balanced, but it is intended to be :) Feedback is very welcome—please let me know your thoughts on mechanics, balance, and fun factor! Feel free to reach out to @N1 on the discord server.
• I'm especially looking for feedback about power spikes: which levels feel too strong or too weak, so I know whether to adjust early-game or late-game scaling.
Thanks to:
Minmay for explaining a ton of concepts when I just started out and discussing ideas and mechanics later.
tbat, Djarskublar and Zizzo for the feedback.
Pot, Dr. Root, nsrr, and others for helping with questions.
