Today, I found meself theorycrafting a whole build around a combination of Forcewave with the Tremor transmutor and Crusader’s Heavenly Strength skill.
I was just about done with the build when I realised that the crusader variants of the 2H weapons have a 1H weapon tag.
Does this mean that all skills/devotions/… requiring a 2H weapon won’t work when that weapon has been transformed into the Crusader variant?
Or did you include a work around behind the screens to get these skills/devotions/… working with these weapons?
If not, is this something that would be possible to make?
Or are you bound by the limitations of the base game?
There’s a way to modify Devotion skills afaik, so I could add a modifier to the Crusader weapons which makes the Devotions that require 2handers to work with 1handers. But… items are limited to have only 3 modifiers, so mythical ones that already have modifiers wouldn’t be changed. So basically, yes, limitations of the base game.
first, thank you and thumb up for the great Mod !
Actually, i play a crusader.
Lvl 100, smite oriented.
Very enjoyable, fun, explosive gameplay !
I equiped gloves on it, and there’s (maybe?) a problem with them.
Item ; Mythical Bracers of fury
Proc : fires of the heaven (15% proc on attack).
The proc itself inflicts a bunch of damage.
BUT, the proc cost mana (45) and with smite + 15% proc on attack, it ‘chainprocs’ (perma proc) AND drains 45 mana per proc (it depletes 2K mana in 3-5 seconds).
I guess that a small ICD could help ?
I also failed to find other items with mana cost on proc ?
All in all, the mod is fantastic and i can only applause.
PS : i don’t know if it is mod related, or only core Grimdawn related. But the game crash often when the last creature spawned by a totem dies (loot explosion = black screen).
I forgot to remove it from Bracers. Fires of Heaven is a granted skill from Fate of the Fell sword now, that’s why it costs mana. Thanks, gonna fix it.
I’m gonna check the issue with the loot explosion/black screen. Meanwhile, disable auto item tooltips and see if it still keeps crashing.
I’m gonna disable auto-tooltip, and check what happens.
About totem loot-splosion > crash, i’ve noticed it happens especially when a recipe + a legendary item are droping at the same time (on totem lootsplosion). It may be unrelated, but i specify it, if it can help.
I’ve done several bosses and totems, with auto tooltip disabled. 0 crash occured. Pro-tip ! Before, crash were occuring at best after 3 bosses or totems in a row.
Thank you very much.
I was wondering if the ‘transmute item’ (to convert an existing set part into another part from the same set) works, at the smith apprentice ? I’ve done a forum research, but couldn’t find anything relevant.
First of all, thank you so much for an excellent mod!
Would you please consider making the Wizard’s Mirror Image permanent? Their cast timer is lower than their despawn timer so they have a 100% uptime, I just have an extra click to do every 12 seconds and it’s really annoying. IMHO it would be much better if they worked like the Guardians of Empyrion.
I’ve tried editing the mod myself, but can’t really figure it out (it throws an error with "Couldn’t load template for record: records/skills/playerclasswizard/mirror_image.dbr (database/templates/skill_targetedspawnpet.tpl)
I’m sorry, but no. I treat them like Wind Devil, moreover, having 4 permanent player scaled pets with no need of gear would be too OP. The ‘annoying recast’ is the price to pay for it.
Hello Grimer,
I think there could be an issue with the Shield “Freeze of Deflection”, Dawnshard model with blue textures.
It’s not scrolling and doesn’t use the right setup
You need to remove the shader
Use 2 basetextures and 1 glow texture : baseTextures,sparker/textures/shield_deovotion_d.tex;fx/meshfx/energypulsing_coldsoft01a_dif.tex,
glowTexture,sparker/textures/shield_deovotion_g.tex,
I fixed it in my last sparker mod update.

Yes i know .I can remember when she was first in dom.She could nuke everything before they can reach her.I actually like the nerfs.I actually play weird combo’s just to make it more difficult.I may make a wiz + paladin .although pally also a bit op with buffs.Not with attack.
Thank you for updating the mod !
I may have found a bug.
After a LONG farm, the game at last drop the missing ‘raiment of a thousand Storms’ part (the ‘mantle of the upside-down sinners’ - shoulders part ).
But once equiped, this specific part doesnt count as a part of the set, and doesnt complete the 5/5 effect from the set.
It remains ‘grey’ in the set listing from other parts.
And in its own set part listing, the item is higlighted alone.
Watching carefully, i noticed this :
All other parts (counted as a set, 4/5 active) are level 94.
The mantle is level 90.
Any chance the bug comes from this ?
Sorry for spelling, grammar, etc.
I hope my explanations will help you anyway.
I’m playing the standalone version of your mod.
BUT the shoulders are the result of a morph (change a set item into another part of the same set).
I’ll try to do some screenshots and post them later.
But for now, working time !
I suppressed all augment / enchant from the shoulders.
Level req. went from 90 to 75.
I was trying to complete a lvl 94 set with a lvl 75 item. Sigh … Evil me ?
.She was op though.Next to tq earth and nature.Wiz are my 3rd fav class.
