Suggestions for the coming release Options

[critto]

Sure, I'll consider it.

I second that suggestion
Judgement day fight is a favorite of mine ( also the sword itself)

[SparrowJacek]

Just for your information, I've started a new run with many new changes that will be introduced in IATweaks. Many aspects are implemented and require testing, but I'll also introduce many more as I'll progress with the run. That's why it will take much more time, but hopefully will allow me to test as many aspects as I can.

Teasing some of the changes, here's the party chosen for this run:
Beastmaster protagonist
Assassin
Priest of Tempus
F/I
Edwin
Free slot for NPCs, then probably Minsc the Berserker

So next version of cleric rebalancing (yes please!) with thief rebalancing (!!!) and new improved beastmaster?!?

[SparrowJacek]

I don't want to say too much, especially since I might have to remove some elements if they turn out to be too buggy, but I have a few surprises prepared. As for the full Thief Rebalance, it would require much more time to implement and test, but I hope that for now at least Assassins will jump a few ranks from F to C or higher

Sounds awesome, might hold off on making a new run.

Roughly when can one expect these changes to be fully implemented ?

Hard to say, as it will be closely related to the number of new ideas I'll come up with during my playthrough. Right now I'm almost at the end of the starting dungeon, so there's still 95% of content ahead of me.

I know you said "I don't want to say too much,", but still one question.

Is the 6.6. Sword & Shield - style making a comeback?

It's one of my favorite tweaks & superbly useful

Sure I've always wanted to do something about dual wield superiority and I'm glad that I was able to at least partially achieve that with such a simple change.

Allright! that's great! It's a super simple way to give dual wielding proper competition & will add a variety of strategies in numerous encounters.

Just a small update that my changes take a lot of time, because I'm also reworking some stuff for enemies, like teaching them to use new/changed abilities and spells. Yesterday I learned to respect Clerics, when the Priest of Cyric from Slaver Ship brutalized some members of my +-10th level party.
