Almanac Classes

Plugin adds a node based progression system that unlocks through experience gained by killing monsters and playing the game.

Still in development, please report bugs and issues to me at OdinPlus while I keep balancing system.

Update: 0.4.15 - overhauled experience map. Please reconfigure new file. Old file is ignored. New file name: ExperienceMap.yml

Highlights

Unique talent abilities that are either passive or activated spells

Some noteworthy abilities:

• Monkey Wrench - Allows to wield two handed weapons in one hand (does not apply to all)
• Dual Wield - You can wield different types of weapons together
• Bleeding - Stacked bleeding damaging ability
• Creature Mask - Spawn a friendly creature - Automatically dies after a certain time
• Shaman Heal - Heal players or self
• Song of Healing - Heals nearby players over time

And many more abilities

Prestige System

Class system has a prestige system. You can prestige after you've met the threshold (configurable) Prestige each talent individually to increase their utility

Classes

• Bard
• Shaman
• Sage
• Ranger
• Rogue
• Warrior

Experience

Experience system rewards player whenever a creature is killed in the surrounding area. It does not matter who kills creature, all players will be rewarded. Players also gain experience by:

• Chopping Trees
• Chopping Logs
• Hitting Ore Deposits
• Taming Creatures
• Picking up Items

Creature reward different experience, you can configure this using the generated YML file found:

• BepinEx/config/AlmanacClasses/Experience/AlmanacExperienceMap.yml

If a creature is not registered to this file, then the experienced gained will be based on the biome the player is in.

Characteristics

Just like the talents, you can use your talent points to unlock characteristics points which have different effects:

• Intelligence: Increased magic damage
• Strength: Increased melee damage and carry weight
• Dexterity: Increased attack speed and stamina
• Constitution: Increased health
• Wisdom: Increased eitr

Configurations

Plugin is fully configurable using the cfg file generated in BepinEx/config directory:

• RustyMods.AlmanacClasses.cfg

Server

AlmanacExperienceMap.yml is synced through server for admins to configure.

Roadmap

• Add more custom animations
• Get feedback from community to balance talents

• class_talents
• talents_write
• talents_test

Each command has a help function that details the available tools
