I have a little problem: Manticores in my game appear to have some ridiculous power rating, so every time I check tooltip descriptiion it says "high treat" or "lethal".
No, I have no maps that could do anything with the creatures.

Just a question.....

If you got my map (The Giant's) in map folder that will appear for sure..
It may appear even if you got it in your /Editor/H5Mmods folder....
not sure....

I want to add (@ Skills.xdb) <ID>HERO_SKILL_DARK_RITUAL</ID> for Demonlord (Beastmaster in my Mod) without removing it from Warlock.

Can it be done with following methods?

method A:
<HeroClass>HERO_CLASS_WARLOCK, HERO_CLASS_DEMON_LORD</HeroClass> (which should be correct case in XML)

method B:
<HeroClass>HERO_CLASS_WARLOCK</HeroClass>
<HeroClass>HERO_CLASS_DEMON_LORD</HeroClass>

+

Adding

<Item>
<Class>HERO_CLASS_DEMON_LORD</Class>
<dependenciesIDs>
<Item>HERO_SKILL_XXX</Item>
</dependenciesIDs>
</Item>

So it would be redirected from skill "XXX".

I'm not a good in heroes, skills and such (I'm specialising on creatures ), but your method 100% won't work. In first case you will have DB error because of invalid class and in second it would take a fisrt class, warlock. But I'm sure this problem can be solved somehow. Maybe modifying hero classes xdb files, if such files exists. So ask anybody else, I can't help with that.

EDIT: for the additional method, don't know, I have never modifyed hero xdb.

Hmmm... I now used just

<SkillPrerequisites>
<Item>
<Class>HERO_CLASS_DEMON_LORD</Class>
<dependenciesIDs>
<Item>HERO_SKILL_CRITICAL_STRIKE</Item>
</dependenciesIDs>
</Item>


without changing anything to <HeroClass>

but for some reason I can't aquire that CRITICAL_STRIKE (aka. Excruciating Strike) in game anymore. Oh, error in code

I'll try to make DarkRitual2.xdb and proceed from there.

Well, as I said I'm not good in modifying heroes cuz I've never do that. So ask somebody else. But I'm 100% sure this problem can be solved.

I'm pretty sure there's a mistake you're making but I can't check it out for you now, as I'm not at home.  But it's definitely possible to do what you want - I've rearranged the skills table more than once.

Ok.
Is there a way to add new <ID>s like <ID>HERO_SKILL_DARK_RITUAL2</ID>? Where exactly this <ID> is pointing to? Hard-coded data perhaps?

No, I'm afraid you can only work with the given IDs.  It is indeed hard-coded and I don't think anyone could manage to work out how to duplicate a skill's effects anyway.

Maybe in 2018 someone will have figured it out

Indeed... but I guess Nival / Ubi has given us change to mod within these limits (they could have hard-code those .xdb infos if they wanted). Well... It doesnt matter.

But if you know a solution to this, please tell (when you have time)

No problem, I'll probably be available to investigate around 7:00 GMT.

In the meantime you could try setting it to HERO_CLASS_NONE and see what happens?

It should work but it would make it free for all other factions as well... and that would make our poor Warlocks go like
And it's binded to Warlock special skill, Elemental Chains. So in order to open it for Oblivion, I'd have to link it with some common spell... unless... *came up with a theory and went to see how it works*

Nah wont work. Anyways I've highlighted those values that I think causes it (I have succeeded to add for example Twilight and Nature’s Wrath for hero so I somewhat know what I'm doing).


...<SkillType>SKILLTYPE_CLASS_PERK</SkillType>
<HeroClass>HERO_CLASS_WARLOCK</HeroClass>
<spellBuffs/>
<BasicSkillID>HERO_SKILL_INVOCATION</BasicSkillID>
<SkillPrerequisites>
<Item>
 <Class>HERO_CLASS_DEMON_LORD</Class>
 <dependenciesIDs>
<Item>HERO_SKILL_GATING</Item>
 </dependenciesIDs>
</Item>
  </SkillPrerequisites>...


Hey, just crossed my mind, can we do this:

<HeroClass>
 <Item>
     <Class>HERO_CLASS_WARLOCK</Class>
     <Class>HERO_CLASS_DEMON_LORD</Class>
 </Item>
?

That's definitely worth a try.  You should test it.  I can't see any obvious reason why it shouldn't work, unless the game just outright rejects two classes per ID.

Yup, it didn't. But I think it's because the value SKILLTYPE_CLASS_PERK instead of normal SKILLTYPE_SPECIAL_PERK that can be added for others. Changing it should do the trick.
