Are you in 1.2.2? I am trying the tablet there and it seems to work correctly
Novak Sep 5, 2024 @ 9:22am 
There still seems to be some weird bug with the tablet it incorrectly counts enemies or applies buffs
Novak Sep 4, 2024 @ 11:08am 
Can you remove the tablet for lair bosses and maybe exemplar lmao
simone.barbaro  [author] Sep 4, 2024 @ 9:17am 
Oh yes, thanks. It was searching for enemies in your team instead of the enemy team, ahahah. Should be fixed now.

Thrilling tablet on monsters is broken it has the buffs active on spawn

For anyone still interested in this mod, new release just dropped bringing a lot of new trinkets for the enemies:
- faction trinkets that will be given only to enemies of that faction
- curio trinkets for all enemies

Happy you had fun. For the vitrine you have to thank the developers. They made it so that any new modded torch gets automatically put in there with the rest. Good luck with the Beacon.

I only did one run with the Candle of Despair so far but was a lot of fun! Gotta try the beacon soon and I love that the vitrine gets expanded with the new flames as well, fantastic job :steamthumbsup:

cultist ambushes are active for the beacon as well as the original torch, you might have gotten lucky.
Novak Sep 1, 2024 @ 5:39am 
Does the beacon of despair not get the cultist ambush?

Hi Aidan, please make sure the mod is active on your profile, then you should start a new expedition and at the first inn you should see the new torches together with the infernal torches. They are called The Candle of Despair and The Beacon of Despair. Please let me know if this helps.

Hello! I wanted to give this a try but can't seem to find it in game
simone.barbaro  [author] Aug 31, 2024 @ 8:34am 
On an other note, I just posted a discussion thread on how what you asked and other potential extensions to this mod could be done, Novak. When it comes to it, if you know a bit about modding dd2 then it will be easy to add the trinkets for confession bosses as well

Thank you once again Novak for the comments and feedback.
You were right, the lady had a bug where she would get an invisible death armor token at the start. Now she is fixed to have a visible death armor token as she should.

Regarding your other point, I am afraid I disagree on giving confession bosses a trinket, it will either be underwelming (+20% burn res is not a cool boss change) or broken. Therefore I have decided I will not give confession bosses a trinket.

I am, however, working on a pack of mods that give cool new bonuses to confession bosses. First two are out now in my workshop mods. You may check them out if the thought sounds interesting.
Novak Aug 31, 2024 @ 4:46am 
There seems to be a bug with lady she goes down to the death door without any death armor tokens
Novak Aug 31, 2024 @ 2:33am 
Beacon of despair is almost exactly what i wanted, but if you also give trinkets to confession bosses it would be even better
simone.barbaro  [author] Aug 30, 2024 @ 12:54pm 
Can you check if the mod's version is 1.1.0 in your game Novak. If not try unsubscribing and resubscribing to the mod. Hope this helps. Then you have to reset the expedition.
Novak Aug 30, 2024 @ 12:38pm 
I can't find the beacon of despair in the inn
simone.barbaro  [author] Aug 30, 2024 @ 10:23am 
New Beacon of Despair infernal torch is up, Bastard's beacon + Candle of Despair all in one for the truly mad
Novak Aug 29, 2024 @ 9:43am 
Also having a harder version of this torch would be great
Novak Aug 29, 2024 @ 9:42am 
Can't wait to see more trinkets in the appear on enemies. I am very excited to see the thirlling tablet on the enemies lol
simone.barbaro  [author] Aug 29, 2024 @ 9:33am 
Thank you for the suggestions Novak.

I also though about giving trinkets to bosses and lair bosses, but some trinkets would make the fights unfun or super hard, like the cultist trinkets. I don't want this flame to be unfun. Although I could easily add a version of the flame with the Bastard's beacon effects which would make all enemies ordained and automatically give them trinkets.

The death armor is more there because I though about how to make a cool new torch effect rather than to balance encounters.

Regarding the bug, one or two of my custom "trinkets" may be bugged, I will need to test them one by one
Novak Aug 29, 2024 @ 8:43am 
Also there is a bug that ordained enemies don't get trinkets sometimes
Novak Aug 29, 2024 @ 8:39am 
And if you make lair bosses and mountain bosses spawn with the trinkets that would be the icing on the cake
Novak Aug 29, 2024 @ 8:38am 
Honestly i think the death armor isn't really needed but if you make it so all enemies get trinkets without being ordained it would be warranted

Thank you for trying the mod, happy to see some people are liking it.
If you have any suggestions on changes/balancing to do I will be happy to try implementing them
Novak Aug 27, 2024 @ 11:53am 
Amazing mod can't wait to see more changes/balancing

This sounds awful... I'm so down for it!
