This mod contains a few (more to come) balance changes, QOL, and bugfixes for the base game, aimed at removing exploits and normalizing item strength while also smoothing out some of the rougher edges in gameplay.

New this update

• Improved compatibility with Dilluvian Difficulty
• OSP max damage taken threshold increased to 211% from 180% (This number scales with OSP threshold, so dilluvians 99% threshold reduces it to 201%)
• Fixed Focus Crystal, Crowbar, and AP Rounds applying to self damage.
• Fixed crowdfunder constantly firing with gesture. (Crowdfunder was immune to breaking, and doesn't benefit from gesture upside, so I removed all interaction)
• Fixed effigy activating with gesture. Same reason as above.
• Added delay to equipment break for some equipment that have cast times or durations (Wings, tonic, preon, ect.)
• Sound will play on activation if equip will break, and sound plays a second time when it actually does break.
• During delay before being destroyed, if you switch equipment (by picking one up, or being MulT) the equip you were holding is destroyed immediately.
• Fixed errors with engineer turrets and visions of heresy.

What's Inside

QOL

Commando Utility

• Roll no longer interrupts sprinting, and you count as sprinting while rolling.
• Base range reduced (But the fact that you are sprinting causes the distance to end up exactly the same)
• This means that items like Rose Buckler and Little Disciple are active while you are rolling.

Visions of Heresy

• Now assigns a new crosshair to characters that use SimpleDotCrosshair (Huntress and Mercenary)
• Makes it easier to aim properly on those characters.
• (I will likely have some extra functionality added to this in the future to allow you to specify which crosshairs are replaced, potentially with an in-game console command)
• Swaps crosshair back to default when visions is not the active primary.
• Does not interfere with skills like Ballista, which change the crosshair for their duration.

Overgrown Printers

• No longer blacklisted from certain special items.
• This means Halycon Seed, Pearls, and Iridescent Pearls can all appear in overgrown printers.
• Reasoning: Overgrown printers are just as rare as Military Printers. They should have a similar potential to change your run.

Bugfix

Bandolier

• Now properly refunds stock for skills that restore more than one stock per recharge.
• This is not the same as simply making bandolier automatically max your stock. It only applies to specific skills that recharge multiple stock at once on a timer.
• Examples are Scrap Cannon and Visions of Heresy.

Self Damage

• Focus crystal can no longer apply to self damage.
• Crowbar can no longer apply to self damage.
• AP Rounds can no longer apply to self damage (Although not sure how you would manage this one)
• Self damage includes Tincture and Meteor.
• Rex self damage was never affected by these items.

Balance

Commando Secondary

• Swapped the cooldowns on Phase Blast and Phase Round.
• (This means phase round has 2s, and phase blast has 3s)
• Significantly closes the dps gap between them.

Corpsebloom

• Maximum reserved healing increased to 200% (+200% per stack) from 100% (+0% per stack).
• Base maximum healing per second increased to 15% from 10%.
• Maximum reserved healing is now calculated from: (Max Health + 25% of Max Shield) instead of just Max Health.
• Maximum healing per second is now calculated from: (Max Health + 25% of Max Shield) instead of just Max Health.

Oneshot Protection

• Now only applies to your health. Both shields and barrier are simply subtracted from incoming damage.
• Hits for more than 211% of your maximum HP now bypass oneshot protection.
• This effectively resolves glass stacking for immortality.
• This also means that shield generators no longer can cause weird situations with OSP.

Gesture of the Drowned

• On equipment use you have a 2.5% chance per stack for your equipment to break.
• Cooldown reduction increased to 50 + 50% instead of 50% + 15%.
• The break chance is non-linear. Mathematically it works out to each stack halving the average number of uses before break.
• Example: one gesture = 40 uses on average. 2 gestures = 20 uses. 3 = 10 uses.
• This effectively turns equipment into consumable items.
• In addition, this change opens up numerous options for me to add entirely new equipment that would be overpowered with the vanilla version of gesture.
