**Highmane's Arsenal 2.3.5**
Recook to attempt to remedy corrupt issue

**Highmane's Arsenal 2.3.4**
**Highlights:**

**Combat Changes:**

New Weapon Type, Nobleswords:
An elegant, slender blade type that is wielded mainly in the left hand as opposed to the right. Occupies both hands. The light weight of the blade allows its length be used in one or two hands interchangeably in its long combos, but hinders durability and strength of staggers.
Deals moderate damage, and has above average forward pressure. Excels at landing combos and closing small distances. Hyper armor on heavy attacks allows for a decent ability to trade, and finishers enable high damage combos. Finishers and Offhand Attacks cost more stamina than regular attacks to execute.
Heavy Attacks consist of a 5 hit chain of two-handed slashes and thrusts. Stabs will cripple opponents, and slashes will cause them to bleed. Finishes with a strong double-hitting attack. Hyper armor starts at 200ms, and ends at 100ms before combo advance window. Combos can be advanced at 750ms. Offhands can be used midchain to launch a forward-heavy uppercut.
Light Attacks consist of a 5 hit chain of one-handed slashes and thrusts. Stabs will cripple and bleed opponents. Hyper Armor is active 100ms before hitboxes start, and ends with hitbox. Combos are able to be advanced at 650ms. Offhands can be used midchain to launch a forward-heavy uppercut.
Offhand Attacks will perform a strong forward moving multi-hit opener that can chain into your second light/heavy attack, or a mid-chain offhand attack. Mid-chain offhands will launch forward moving attacks that allows you to close gaps quickly and combo directly into a light or offhand finisher.

New Weapon Type, Handaxes:
Handaxes are an Axe variant that occupies both hands, and has a built-in throwing component. This moveset existed on Dragonslayer's Axe, and is now its own archtype.
Handaxes deal high damage and have considerable hyper armor behind them to trade with, and offhand attacks will execute a projectile throw. Projectile throws deal good damage, stun for a short time, and inflict the same long lasting cripple found on other throwing weapons.

New Weapon Type, Lifestaff:
A tool that delivers life and strength unto others, rather than taking it. Unlike most weapons, the Lifestaff cannot deal damage, only buff and restore nearby targets. Has minimal hyper armor, and leaves the user vulnerable while casting. Keep in mind the Healing Staff is not picky about who is nearby when you cast your heals, so consider when and where to use it wisely. Healing is not affected by Fast Healer.
Light Attacks will launch projectiles that splash a small healing AoE (10% of your maximum health over 1 second, capped at 100 health). Consumes up to 40 stamina. Generates one stack of Lifestaff Overflow on healed targets.
Heavy Attacks will cast an AoE Burst Heal that restores up to 33% of your maximum health instantly (capped at 330 health), and also grants a 25% increase to stamina recovery speed for 15 seconds. Consumes up to 200 stamina. Generates four stacks of Lifestaff Overflow on healed targets.
Offhand Attacks will tunnel the staff into the ground, drawing up power and protection. With an AoE, grant nearby targets Empower (+15%) and Fortify (+600) for 30s, and then after a brief pause, also refill nearby target's stamina bars, grant them a 25% increase to stamina recovery speed, and restore 10% health over 1 second. Consumes up to 400 stamina. Generates two stacks of Lifestaff Overflow on healed targets.
If a target receives too much healing within a short window, they will receive Lifestaff Sickness. Lifestaff Sickness reduces all healing received by a Lifestaff for 10 seconds, and occurs when six stacks of Lifestaff Overflow are reached. Stack count will reset 10 seconds after first stack is applied.

All attacks now correctly have pulling knockbacks, and Heavy/Offhand Attacks will have slightly longer stun duration
Increased the speed of Light Attacks, slightly increased their forward momentum, you can cancel out of their animations with movement much sooner, and they now end on the 3rd light with a chasing uppercut attack. Additionally, increased damage multipliers (1x > 1.1x) on account of being slower than most typical light attacks.
Adjusted the trajectory of Heavy 1 to be slightly easier to aim
Hitboxes were adjusted to be slightly larger but with less coverage on some attacks, making it very unlikely you will hit someone behind you
Reduced the stamina cost of Heavy Attacks by 10%, Light Attacks by 20%, & Offhand Attacks (Opener by 25%, Follow-Up by 33%)
Swapped Sprint Attacks around for better input usage. Light Sprint Attack now uses Offhand Sprint Attack animation, Heavy Sprint Attack now uses Light Sprint Attack animation, and Offhand Sprint Attack now uses Heavy Sprint Attack animation. Damage values were adjusted accordingly.
Offhand Sprint Attack is slightly slower and costs more stamina (+25%), but covers more distance as a more effective chase tool
Heavy Attack combos now perform a gap-closing, chase attack finisher rather than a basic light when inputting a light attack into the combo

Light Attacks will quickly fire off two ice shards in a cone
Heavy Attacks strike with a short range beam of cold, quickly capable of building up Frostbite stacks or dealing with clumps of enemies. Movement speed is increased while channeling this attack.

New Weapon: Hand Crossbows
Hand Crossbows are paired ranged weapons capable of quickly firing off up to 2 shots back to back, dealing a moderate amount of damage.
Light Attacks combo consists of two attacks, both ending with reloading the hand crossbows. Firing off both shots will make the reload take longer.
Heavy Attacks consist of a simple kick that allows you to quickly combo into a shot, putting space between you and your opponent.
Offhand Attacks let you perform a backflip to put even more distance between yourself and your opponent.

Deep One's Eastblade:
Removed Empowering Crits, replaced with Healing Kills

Environmental Interactions:
Arcane Sword & Shortspear are now correctly usable in water
Firestaff & Helios Warspear are now correctly NOT usable in water

Battleaxes:
Increased distance of Offhand Shoulder attack
Ammunition:
Reduced the weight of most Crossbow Bolts & Cartridges, increased max stack size to 1000. At most, a stack of 100 of non-siege oriented ammo will weigh 2 (down from 6-8), which is in line with Warbow arrows.

Crossbows, Muskets, Flintlocks
Manually adjusted projectile launch location for all so that they shoot much closer to crosshair. May differ for characters with sizes extremely outside of vanilla ranges.

Buffs:
Increased Empowering Kills buff duration to 20s (up from 8s)
Adjusted Hellfire: Damage is dealt over 3 seconds, 6 times, instead of 3 seconds, 9 times. Additionally, it is now uncleansable.
Removed debuff effect from Tempest Helm when reaching maximum stacks
Reduced Smolder duration to 5 seconds (down from 8)

__Equipment:__
Northern Warden Helm: Imbued with Restoring Finishers, this Heavy Armor provides a boon for those who want to take their big swings with a little more confidence. Restoring Finishers scales up to 700 maximum health and 200 maximum stamina, restoring up to 40 health and stamina on a successful finisher attack hit. (3s cooldown)
Death's Gaze: Imbued with Deadly Finishers, this Light Armor offers very little armor but a significant boon to your offense: When landing a finisher attack, inflict 1 of every stack of common Highmane's poison (Rotflesh, Quickvenom, Brood, Bloodscourge) and gain Enhanced Attack, granting your next damaging attack a +30% increase in damage. (3s cooldown)
Royal Icestaff
Scholar Icestaff
Crystal Icestaff
Ice Shield: Imbued with Empowering Health, gain +10% outgoing damage while at full health.
Reshaper's Firestaff

**Highmane's Arsenal 2.3.1**
**Highlights:**

**Combat Changes:**
Healing Kills modifier was adjusted - On any kill, instantly regain 7.5% of your maximum health + another 10% over 5 seconds. Latter heal can be interrupted by direct damage. (Old: On any kill, regain 20% of your health over 10 seconds. Can be interrupted by direct damage.) Affects Goldforged Katana, Goldforged Eastblade, Mythril Greatsword, Unyielding Legs. Unyielding Legs will only receive the instant heal, but will stack.)

Striking Shields now apply Stunned (99% movement speed reduction for 1 second, and blocks the ability to attack and dodge while it is active) instead of Stunning Cripple (75% movement speed reduction for 2 seconds). When Stunned clears, you will gain Stunned immunity for 8 seconds. Stunned counts as a Cripple for debuff clearing properties.
Added a followup attack to Striking Shield opener bashes (consumes 120% stamina), and a sprint attack (consumes 180% stamina)
Slightly increased delay before you can attack with another weapon after a Striking Shield attack
Fixed an inconsistency between Striking Shields in which some had a base stamina cost of 45, and one was set to 50. Now, all striking shields have a base stamina cost of 50.
Hyper Armor for attacks now starts at 200ms (up from 100ms)

Fighting Fists:
Reduced Offhand Finisher damage (2x > 1.7x)

Dual Weapons:
Reduced forward movement and attack reset timings of Offhand mixup from Light or Heavy combos, reduced damage multiplier (.95x > .75x)
Reduced damage of Heavy Attacks 1 through 4 by 10%
Reduced rotation windows of Heavy Openers and Offhand Mixup
Hyper Armor now starts at 300ms during heavy attacks (Heavy Opener remains 200ms), and for multi-hit attacks, it now only covers active hitbox frames providing more interrupt opportunity
Increased stamina cost of Heavy Attacks by 20% (excluding Spin Loop)
Reduced knockback duration of multi-hit attacks (Heavy 3, 4, & Offhand Mixup)

Rapier:
Increased the speed of Opener Heavies, Heavy 2, Heavy 2 w/ Throwing Axe, and Opener Light

Dragonslayer's Axe:
Reduced rotation window of Heavy Opener (consistency with Dual Weapons)

Fixed an issue with Hellfire Grenades being reusable more than once when crafted with certain thrall bonuses

Reworked Faceless Veil due to mod conflict issues with invisibility and changing character layouts at runtime:
Crouching now triggers an Empower (+30%) that lasts for 6 seconds. When the Empower expires, gain the unique buff Faceless, which grants 1-4 stamina (based off your maximum stamina, capping at 200) when successfully landing attacks. You can't regain Empower while Faceless is active.

Reduced the weight of Curative Potions (.3 > .1), increased the duration of Poison Immunity (8s > 12s), altered animation, and they now also grant a small, instantaneous heal on use (up to 6% of your maximum health, capping at 60 health)

New Weapon Variant: Scythe
The Scythe is a very high damage weapon, with the unique ability to pull in targets rather than knock them away on any attack. Unlike most weapons, the Scythe does not have any knockdown capability, and can get past any shield's guard with any attack.
Heavy Attack combos consist of reaping slashes, with moderate hyper armor coverage. They have a strong pull that when landing attacks makes it difficult to get away from, and have Cripple on all hits.
Light Attack combos consist of quick, back to back horizontal slashes, designed to deal with group of enemies or agile opponents.
Offhand Attack openers are a slow, extremely high damage rushing uppercut attack, designed to put fear into your opponents if not outright end them. You can follow up into a quick light, a heavy finisher, or another high damage offhand attack. Both the Offhand Opener and Offhand Followups count as Finisher attacks.

Thralls, NPCs, & AI:
Added complex combo conditions for humanoid enemies wielding Highmane's weapon types - both hostile NPCs and Thralls will now perform various combos and mixups when wielding these weapon types, unique to each weapon

Mounts:
Added Gladius, Warbows, Knives, Rapiers, Shortbows, Shortblades, Dragonslayer's Axe, Helios Warspear, Arcane Sword, Eastblades, Clubs, Halberds, Shortspears, Longswords, Warmaces, Warspears, and Katanas to be able to be used on Horse/Camel/Rhino mounts. Note that Rhinos are more restricted with what weapons can be equipped, and due to Funcom limitations this is not compatible with other mods that load custom weapon movesets to be used on Mounts. Whichever mod is loaded later in the Modlist will be prioritized in what weapons can be used on Mounts.
