We now soft-require RustyDios' excellent Chemthrower Addon Redux, which came out recently. With that mod installed the spec can finally fit its intended niche, since it makes the alternate throwers way more accessible.

Please read the mod's page before throwing it into a running campaign. Note that you CAN choose to not use it (ignore in AML and carry on), the spec will just be a lot weaker without.

It's out! And with quite a few changes on the stats side of things, too! Check the changelog for more info.

(we now exclude Keeper and Ex-Lancer, and allow Alien Hunter's secondary)

Heads up: Got a rarity pass for a bunch of my specs coming up at some point in the next week. The huge influx of new/changed specs over the past year or so has been great, but has also thrown a lot of older specs out of whack.

These changes are likely going to break some classes in ongoing campaigns, sorry! If you notice any characters that did lose their class, use my Console Helper's RandomizeClass command with one or more old specs, or (temporarily) remove the new exclusions in the matching spec's XComAmalgamation.ini file. (they'll be clearly marked as being new)

(ShadowOps_SnakeBlood comes to mind as a vaguely-similar-in-execution alternative if you have the Shadow Ops Perk Pack, grants +20 dodge and poison immunity)

Thanks for the report! Totally missed that, sorry.

I'll add it as a weak requirement for now -- the mod will require it, but won't complain on the title screen if it does happen to be missing. That way people can remove or replace the perk and ignore the warning in AML if they want to play without.

I believe the perk MZBitterfrostBlood is from the Bitterfrost Protocol mod, which isn't listed as a dependency. Ended up with a couple of Desolators that had an empty perk slot.

I'll have a look when I get to updating my stuff again, thanks for the heads-up.

You might want to consider adding Stukov's Geomancer to list of incompatible specs on this and Maverick, seeing as he intended for it to only spawn alongside Necromancer primary.

do it

Jeez... I might have a make a few now

Indeed! Been having a blast with the ones you've released, so figured I'd try my hand at filling some of the gaps.

Always great to see more Amalgamation specs

(companion Salamander spec with a full-on fire focus coming later! I've got it pretty much ready to go, but some of the custom abilities I made need further tweaking/fixing and it's currently way too hot to dive into that)
