Balanced Grenades for NPCs
Adjusts NPCs usage of grenades in battle depending on rank.
This mod increasing the time between NPCs grenade usage. The adjustments are scaled to the NPCs’ rank, with higher-rank NPCs retaining a slightly higher chance of using grenades compared to lower-rank ones.
This will often result in higher ranks using atleast 1-2 grenades per fight depending on length, and some fights, especially with lower rank NPCs, you wont see any grenades at all.
Optional version if you want to see even less grenades.
Two configuration options are provided:
Reduced Grenade Usage:
The delay for low-rank NPCs is extended ranging from 40–90 seconds, while delays for higher ranks remain lower at 30-60. Internal CD of 25s.
(Optional) Significantly Reduced Grenade Usage:
Further reduces the delay for low-rank NPCs ranging from 60–110 seconds, while delays for higher ranks remain lower at 50-70. Internal CD of 25s.
Compatibility
Should work with any other mod. If it modifies the file below, either merge or load this mod after for it to work.
This mod does only modify
CombatSynchronization.cfg
file, making it compatible with other mods that adjust grenade damage or effects.
Update
I will use Herbata’s loader in the future to make this completely compatible, and then I will also change the probability for NPCs to use grenades and how often without it interfering with other mods.
I recommend using Axxii’s Better Grenades along with this mod
