About this mod
There are many skill tweaks/changes mods out there but none of them modify the Fighter to be exactly what I wanted, so I decided to make my own Idealized Fighter.
This mod is a straight up buff to most of the Fighter's offensive and defensive tools because I personally feel that a PvE Singleplayer game should not have nerfs.

NOTICE: Idealized Fighter is now discontinued. Please go to Idealized Vocations for new updates and bug fixes!
Installation:
Please use Fluffy Mod Manager to install. I have already packed it in such a way that all you have to do is to extract the .rar contents to your Games>DragonsDogma2>Mods.
Disclaimer about skill tweaks and online:
After testing out several skill tweaking mods as well as asking around, skill tweaking mods will not "soft ban" you. I can safely say that this mod will not cause your pawn to be hidden online as it does not tweak any stats at all.
Mod Info:
As mentioned in the overview, there are currently many skill tweaking/changing mods for the Fighter vocation, but none of them truly got Fighter to be exactly what I wanted. I think the damage values are fine since the game is already really easy, even with bloated enemy HP values, so I chose not to touch any damage multipliers but instead, amplify the offensive and defensive tools of the Fighter instead.
Any skills or values that were not mentioned in this description means that they were not touched and left at vanilla values.
Alternate versions of the changes below are available under the optional files section.
Changes:
Tusk Toss
- Charge time reduced from 1 sec to 0.35 sec
This change is to make it so that you could smoothly combo into a tusk toss without having to awkwardly pause in between your normal attack animations.
Deflect
- Reduced frames from 15f to 10f
This change is to ensure that you always trigger true deflect.
True Deflect
- Increased frames from 6f to 20f
This change will make it so that true deflect will always trigger.
Steeled Foundation
- Increased fall damage reduction from 10% to 95%
This core skill reminded me of that time Captain America jumped off a building and landed on his shield all fine and dandy, so there you have it. Do note you will still die if you fall from an extremely great height.
Blink Strike/Burst Strike
- Increased rushing duration from 0.75 to 1.0 (Lv1) and 0.95 to 1.5 (Lv2)
Fighter go zoom lol.
Gouging Skewer/Gutting Skewer
- Increased stabbing strikes from 15 to 20 (Lv2)
- Slightly increased stabbing speed from 1.25 to 1.3
Just an extra 5 stabs as well as a slight increase to stabbing speed. Feels just right.
Hindsight Slash/Hindsight Sweep
- Reduced normal dodge frames from 30f to 10f
- Increased perfect dodge frames 8f to 20f
Just like with Deflect & True Deflect, this is to ensure that the perfect dodge version is always triggered.
Compatibility:
This mod is naturally incompatible with any mods that modify the Fighter skills.
Feedback:
I do welcome constructive criticism so if you have any, please do feel free to comment! I do intend on making "Idealized" versions for all vocations eventually, I just decided to start off with Fighter since its archetype is my favorite in a fantasy world. Warrior should be next!
Uninstallation:
Just delete my mod from your Games>DragonsDogma2>Mods directory, and you're good to go.
