Changelogs
Version 1.0.0
Initial Release
NOTE: This still works as of Patch 6, Hotfix 22 but I highly recommend using the superior Animate Dead Plus Plus which includes similar changes.
Patch 1 (August 25, 2023) included a nerf to the extremely overpowered Danse Macabre spell. The made the following changes to the spell:
Target limit was decreased from 6 to 4
Ghoul HP set to a flat 20 (previously scaled with caster)
Replaced Ghoul's special melee attack with regular unarmed attacks
Player can no longer control ghouls
This mod simply reverts these changes to the spell so it now behaves exactly as it did prior to Patch 1.
Alternatively, for those who think the nerf was a good idea but lament the loss of control, I've included an alternate "Re-Nerfed" version that includes all of the nerfs but still allows for the player to control the ghouls.
INSTALLATION
Place the .pak file in your mods directory (AppData/Larian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3/Mods) INSTALL ONLY ONE VERSION
Enable the mod using BG3 mod manager
Enjoy!
NOTE ON THE ALTERNATE VERSION: The tooltip for the attack still shows the original attack but it shouldn't proc paralyzed.
