$

0
Update: The Doomsinger now comes with a new unique HLA! So please uninstall the old version, get the new one and install that or you won't receive your HLAs when you reach 3M XP. Sorry about this.

Enhanced Doomsinger Song
This improvement to the Doomsinger's song adds even more devastating effects to his/her voice in addition to the normal effects. Enemies recieve a 20% casting failure and a -4 penalty to hit, -4 penalty to damage -4 penalty to Armor Class and -4 to saving throws. Also the level of creatures it can kill is increased by 2 (10 at level 25 and 12 at level 30).

These effects are added on top of the normal Doomsinger song and does not replace it.

EDIT: My very first publicly released weidu mod is now available for download! Enjoy!
And let me know if you run into any technical difficulties.

To install, just unzip the contents of the archive into [...]Baldur's Gate II Enhanced Edition\Data\00783 and run setup-doomsinger.exe.

Came up with this cool sounding name for a bard kit and decided to have a go at defining it further. I haven't made the actual kit yet but after I do, I might try to learn myself the mysterious workings of weidu and distribute it publicly if there's any interest. Here is the description anyway, let me know if you think it sounds OP or something:

DOOMSINGER: The doomsinger sings of death and destruction, and with his/her words he/shecan put dread in the hearts of his/her enemies and break the will of even the most hopeful person. It is even said that some of weaker heart could fall to their knees and die upon hearing the doomsinger's dark voice.

Advantages:
- The doomsinger's song is different from the typical bard, it affects enemies and varies with level:
1: Save vs. Spell (+4) once per round or flee in terror.
5: Save vs. Spell (+2) once per round or flee in terror.
10: Save vs. Spell once per round or flee in terror.
15: Save vs. Spell (+2) once per round or be instilled with hoplessness for one round (affected creature will lie down on the ground, apathetically).
25: Save vs. Spell once per round or be instilled with hoplessness for one round, also any creature of level 8 or lower must make a saving throw vs. death or instantly drop dead.
30: Save vs. Spell once per round or be instilled with hoplessness for one round, also any creature of level 10 or lower must make a saving throw vs. death or instantly drop dead.

Disadvantages:
- No pickpocketing bonus.
- The doomsinger rolls d4 for hit points instead of a bard's d6.
- On character creation, receives a -2 to strength and constitution.
- Must be evil.
