Radiant Blacksand Tiger Summon

Description

This mod adds a new powerful summon in the game : the Blacksand Tiger. Not compatible with old saves because of new sensible root files. This earth based summon has a wide range of unique skills which can help you in many different ways. It is meant to be one of, if not the best of summons in the game.I worked hard for a long time to make this mod (a whole month of free time until 2am), it kinda was my final goal in modding divinity 2. Please browse screenshots and read Content section to learn more about it. Solution has been added on the last screenshot.



You have to be Summoner lvl 3 and Geomancer lvl 1 at least for both and at the same time. No, sorry, but this summoning won't come all free in your hands !
There is only one book for one character left somewhere in the game. Its location is willingly implicit, i want you to deserve it ! Browse the screenshots to find a clue ! (Please no spoil in comments)

The Blacksand Tiger has 5 base skills. At first, he acts like a strong versatile damage dealer which also has a emergency protecting spell.

Like for Incarnates, you will have to get Summoning to level 10 so it can reach its full potential. Your Summon will be bigger, stronger and will gain 4 more skills including a pretty powerful "ultimate".

Now here are the overall specifications :

  • 30 turn Summon duration, but 3 AP to summon in combat. (that way, it's sometimes almost more a companion than a summon)
  • Hybrid basic attack (physical + earth magic damage), tiny chance to inflict bleeding (5%).
  • Decent crit rate (15 %)
  • Paw attacks (Basic attack + 1 skill) have longer range (a bit more than a sword), Maw attacks (2 skills) have a short range (around knives one).
  • Recover up to 5 AP per turn allowing you to act more than your heroes.
  • Balanced Magical/Physical Armor but both weaker than average.
  • A little mobility & dodge bonus.
  • "the Pawn", "Opportunity Attack", "Living Armor" talents. (They all fit well his mood/aspect)
  • Immune to : Petrified, Slowed, Slipping, Fear. (Learn to play with oil since he is made of that element)
  • Strong Earth damage Resistance, fair Poison damage Resistance.
  • A real good hearing to spot enemies on the mini-map from further.
  • Leave a precious blessed oil splatter when dies or lifetime ends which can make pretty nice combos (wide bless oil spreading combined with his ultimate or jump, blessed fire, blessed smoke, etc).

I hope you guys will enjoy it !

LORE STORY

Thousands of years ago in Rivellon, there was a race known to house the most powerful summoners there ever was. Now forgotten since a long time, they used to be fractioned in several distant nomad tribes but with the same magic sensibility and all united in worshiping nature and earth. Despite of being deeply peaceful, they were sometimes seen as outcasts and hunted from place to another place. In times of war, they could be skilled magicians but their number was always a weakness so that women and children often had to take arms the same way as men.

Even if they could find or forge decent swords or spears, arcane magic and summoning arts were remaining their most effective weapons. During the great war, their population got dangerously thin, in fact, they were slowly pushed toward the edge of their extinction. They decided to reunite their tribes to work on a solution, the most powerful invocation they could create. One that could allow to bring all their innate talents together into a powerful magical being meant to fight by their side for survival.

That's how the first Blacksand tiger was born decades after that. Made from earth, light and oil, they looked like the proudest of the animals. They were formidable weapons which can wipe the strongest knights or the mighiest magicians both as easily with their wide-balanced skills. Like their masters, Blacksand tigers were masters of earth magic but they could be swift and deploy a frightening strengh at the same time.

They never failed being the mighty guards of their masters, and with centuries passing by they quickly became more powerful and more feared. Until their reputation reached Braccus Rex ears …

As soon as he discovered Blacksand Tigers, they immediatly became insolence to his eyes … he was rather annoyed that the fear they evoked had managed to cast a small shadow on his. Only the name of Braccus Rex could be a synonym of Fear. To punish their creators for this outrage, as in his habits, he simply decided to wipe them all. Some used to say that he has succeed, but some other say that their legacy still lives somewhere … in few people heart




You can find all my mods by searching "Radiant" in steam workshop, nexus, or civfanatics, which is a recurrent word in all my mod's tittles.

Even if they represent hundreds of working hours, I'm sharing my mods for free like most of mod creators. But deep down I'm really hoping you to do that little extra thing that would help me a lot : joining any of my pages (patreon, facebook, instagram). Just that really! Don't feel obliged to give something, with Patreon there is indeed a free option that grants you basic news/content and it will only take few seconds of your time. That being said I'm an artist irl and I sometimes struggle to put my personal projects on the saddle. By giving a little something or joining my ranks you can trigger a course of actions/reactions that might end up gathering more people around, thus helping me building the motivation and means to create more stuff to appreciate.

@Foxtrot_Failure: Thanks for the aid as it helped me out greatly in order to fix hopefully the issue. I did what you said step to step.

Also sir Shiroho I messaged as I was concerned I could not use your great mod again. Please keep doing what you do.

@Foxtrot-Failure Well if that works as a fix I will let that precious comment of yours intact for sure. Thanks for bringing a solution to those fellas in need of help, that game's file have always been sensitive ones indeed.

@shiroho if you wanna copy and delete my comment and use it as yours please do.


To FIX the bug of the mod not showing up or any other mod on workshop with this issue simply unsubscribe then resubscribe from said mod. then go to your SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content sort by date modified to find the mod. Manually copy the PAK file and paste it in Documents\Larian Studios\Divinity Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition\Mods and with that load up your game and bam there you go.

@Galashield I'm sorry mate, this seems to be related to your setup. Can't be much of help but I checked on my pc and my wife's, both shows the mod in list and everything works fine :O
Gaiashield Apr 6, 2023 @ 6:22am 
Somehow the mod is not showing up on my mod list anymore and I tried to subscribe and resubscribe to see if it work. Yet still don't see it on the list at all and neither on Nexus. I am confused.

i figured out the issue i was having. if the book is not showing up for you please verify the integrity of your game. to do this right click on the game and click properties then go to local files and verify integrity. the issue is caused by deleting old mods (atleast for me) and it may mess up your files. i hope this helps anyone who has this issue.

@~Shinøbu~ Solution on the last added screenshot if you want.
Shiroho  [author] Feb 18, 2023 @ 2:35am 
@Foxtrot-Failure Nothing is broke, I just reinstalled the game after a long pause. The invocation book is here waiting to be found. Okay after all those years I give the location : It's in the small purse next to the balista (not in the dead bodies but not far from them). I'm playing with 65 mods so I'm confident there is no risk of conflicts (most popular ones). Also, you really need a new game to make it work (there are new effects bank/new textures to be implemented etc)
