It is with great pleasure and excitement that @Grammarsalad and I are moving our Skills and Abilities mod into ALPHA release state.

Introduction

This mod is a collection of class, skill, proficiency, and stat updates. This is an alpha release with the intention of adding more class, skill, and stat updates in the near future while further refining the new proficiencies that are being added. Yes, these are actual, functional, useable, proficiencies that can be assinged on the character creation and level up screens. Yes, I am intimately familiar with the limited resources in the game, and no detectable spells were harmed in the making of this mod.

Some components require EEex to work, and those are identified with (EEex Required).

Compatibility

This mod has components (outlined above) requiring EEex created by Bubb to work. If you install these components, you will need to launch your game with InfinityLoader.exe instead of the standard Baldur.exe file.

Being this requires EEex to run, Windows is required at this time.

Special Thanks

Bubb for all of his work on EEex.
aVENGER for use of a function to update clab files.


You can download the latest version of the mod here.

    Is it a joke ? This mode boosts all Weapon Styles, except two-weapons Style, which is nerfed? (just becomes "normal" at 3 points) WTF?

    Two Weapon Style is incredibly overpowered compared to the other weapon styles. Unlike vanilla progression for the proficiency, the player is going to need to invest more than 2 pips into it or suffer damage loss to the main and offhand weapon. The prof is still nerfed compared to vanilla as the 3 pip benefit only has the damage loss on the offhand weapon. Focus is on balance between weapon styles, and this puts them all on closer footing.

    I am curious - what happened to the skills and abilities mod? It has disappeared from The Gibberlings website and the links in this thread do not seem to work. Is the mod still available (I do hope it is...)

    It is not currently available as I will be transitioning it and my other work to a self-hosted site. No ETA, but they will be back up.

    Cool, thank you for letting us know - I will download an actual version once it's available again.

    Does the „add new HLAs for all classes“ component has to be installed after any new Kits or Class Mods, if you want the new kits to make use of it? Lets say if I use your Kitpack or Artisans, wich one comes first?

    Per the mod's readme: "I recommend installing this mod near the end of your install. I do my install after Tactics/SCS and other tweak mods."
