Harran Unleashed
Quality of Life changes
• Spare ammo counts have been altered.
Pistol: 90 -> 160
Rifle: 180 -> 240
Shotgun: 72 -> 60
SMG: 240 -> 360
• Arrows fly faster, especially from the standard bow.
• The Grappling Hook now can be used in combat to pull weaker enemies towards you, slamming them into the environment!
Now has a 8 second cooldown on use, and has a comfortably extended reach.
Additionally the Grapple Hook now goes on cooldown after a single-use. Ultimate Survivor skill now enables a second use before going on cooldown.
• Sneaking is slightly faster. Swimming and strafing is significantly faster.
• Silenced pistols use regular ammo instead of subsonic so you can actually use them.
• All elemental weapon effects have a higher chance of triggering.
• Running grants a small amount of XP
• Generally increased XP gains from performing more unique climbing and attacking actions
• Shields can take much more damage before breaking.
• Weapons degrade 25% slower and have a 25% chance to not use up a repair point by default, both values can be boosted to 50% via skills.
• Broken weapons deal 40% damage instead of 10% damage.
• Bullets and other projectiles can penetrate enemies more easily.
• Ragdolls will behave more naturally and most importantly will not weirdly automatically aim their heads towards the ground while falling.
• Audio occlusion has been improved greatly, which means you can for example hear explosions around a corner or virals climbing a building near you.
• Dust particles in the air are reduced by 80% allowing the game's graphics to shine!
• Base FOV values have been extended, allowing for a wider overall FOV.
A biproduct of this change is FOV values may be different then you initially had them set. Don't forget to tweak FOV settings until you find something you're comfortable with.
Rebalances
• Fall heights have been adjusted to be far more punishing.
Roughly Below 5~ meters = safe
Between 5~ to 7~ meters = painful
Between 7~ to 10~ meters = dangerous
Roughly Above 10~ meters = deadly unless rolled out
• Tightened window for rolling out of large falls. Making it more tense when falling great distances!
• Hard and Nightmare increase not just damage taken but also damage dealt.
Hard/Nightmare are no longer slogfests of sponge-whacking and instead have more intense give and take encounters from all parties.
• Nightmare no longer bans any items from use.
• Running & Combat stamina is much higher but take longer to regenerate.
• Food items heal you over time, however for considerably more then before.
• You can now only hold 12 Medkits, and 5 Military Medkits total at a time.
This was done to prevent medkit spam on Normal Difficulty, and to Incentivize health-related Skills like Man-Up!. This also encourages players to use Medkits more often, rather then hoarding them.
• ON HARD DIFFICULTY: To offset the medkit cap, Military Medkits now heal instantly rather then over time.
Military Medkits still heal overtime on Nightmar. However it is faster then standard medkits.
• Biters are generally more aggressive.
• Can no longer use Survivor Sense while sprinting, making chases much more tense.
• The Grappling Hook no longer gives you zero gravity while initially throwing it, making it slightly more difficult to land.
• Your flashlight runs out of power over time, but recharges rapidly when turned off. Even in Story Mode and Normal difficulties.
• ON NORMAL DIFFICULTY: Toxic zombies no longer spawn under normal conditions, enabling the player to use fire weapons without punishing them for it.
Additionally Bombers no longer spawn naturally and have been completely replaced with Virals. (You may still see Bombers in handplaced locations).
This change does not apply on Hard. Zombies diversity has not been adjusted on harder difficulties.
Loot & Merchant Changes
• Wandering merchants now sell blueprints.
• Economy & Prices have been altered slightly, as higher level gear starts to get pretty expensive.
• Flags & Statues grant more XP when picked up.
• Loot tables are more diverse, you can find more items in general.
• Ammunition for firearms is found slightly more often, in reasonable locations.
• A new 'Booze' food item has been added, to help wash down all the burgers and baklava.
Skills
• Altered Passive Skill: Dropkick Bomb
Now also speeds up dropkick and enables a quicker getting up animation.
• Altered Passive Skill : Brutal Grapple
Grapple now works from the front (NageWazaFront). Allowing you to shove enemies forwards directly away, rather then only left, right, or behind.
• Altered Passive Skill: Ultimate Combatant
Now speeds up stealth (from behind) takedowns.
• Altered Active Skill : Forward Roll
Now also reduces fall damage from bad landings.
• Legend Skills are rebalanced across the board.
And other minor changes . . .

Installation
Simple Installation :
1. Simply download the mod through the Vortex Mod Manager!
2. Play the game!
(The Vortex manager actually tries to mend the .pak files with other mods, assuming they don't alter the same game files. Which allows for a lot more compatibility)
Manual Installation :
1. Go to "\Steam\steamapps\common\Dying Light\DW"
2. Create a backup of the pre-existing Data3.pak
3. Place the mod's Data3.pak in that DW folder and overwrite
4. Play the game!
(Keep in mind, this method completely replaces your Data3.pak so this will not be compatible with other mods that alter that file without further steps.)
?. If you want to revert to vanilla, simply use the backup you created earlier!

Most of the real hard work for this mod was done by EthicalLune and lyravega. I simply loved their work so much I refused to play without them both! Don't forget to go check out and endorse their respective works!

Changes from original Harran Unleashed
• Survivor Sense being disabled while sprinting is entirely a change I made myself. I liked how it mended with the tension of being chased on harder difficulties.
•
Overwritten by Advanced Moves skill changes
•
I didn't like how this felt. I still liked having to work towards earning the rollout skill.
•
•
•
Tic Tac is just WAY too useful to be completely replaced.
•
I simply adjusted sneaking to be a bit slower. I didn't like how fast Harran Unleashed made crouch walking. It felt like there was little reason to ever stand up during night travel unless parkouring.
• Crafting Expertise once again crafts 2 Medkits at a time
I didn't agree with this change, I felt the 2 medkits was a very key ingredient in the difficulty balance of Hard and Nightmare difficulties
Changes from original Advanced Moves
• Nerfed the Brawler by roughly half its multiplier damage, as damage values were lowkey ridiculous.
• Quaterback no longer affects multi-throw lock-on values. I felt locking the improved targeting behind the same perk that forces auto-aim throwing was counter-intuitive. The 'BLAST' skill now does this.
• Additionally made some minor tweaks to the Blast Skill, and Quarterback skill regarding damage values. Specifically made multi-throwing weaker, until you get Quarterback, where then its incentivized.
• Harran Unleashed's dropkick tweaks were mended with Advanced Moves. I like the quicker recovery Harran Unleashed did to Dropkick Bomb. It made the skill feel more worth the skill point.
