About this mod

Performance-Enhancing drugs for your Archery!

Requirements
Permissions and credits
I'm gonna make this as simple as I can, but go easy on me if I miss anything.   This mod is mostly just me messing around with files to see what does and doesn't work.  It was partly inspired by certain other Bow-enhancing mods that are now redundant since the game updated... and so in turn this mod may also become redundant in future (almost certainly)... 

What does it do?
#1. Reduces the Spread on various shots, especially the Power Shots. They can basically all hit monsters from medium range now. 
#2. Increases several parameters of Arc-shots, including their max range, slight boost to the AoE and increases the drop-speed.  Not 100% sure if it drops more arrows or just drops them in less time though. 
#3. Increases the number of tracer / arc arrows Focus Shot can target by 1.  Tried more but it caused game crashes.  It still might.  We'll have to see... 
#4. Increases the strength of Coatings to various degrees.  Power Coatings now do 1.5x damage.  Close Range coatings do 1.6x but the critical range has been reduced a little.  Pierce Coatings proc up to twice as many times at closer intervals, in theory to bring them in line with the alternatives. All Status Coatings are boosted somewhat (Para & Sleep x1.5, Poison, Blast & Exhaust x2).   
#5. Slightly speeds up the charge times for manually charging shots, which may or may not interfere with the Focus skill (not sure). 
#6. Increases the i-Frames for the perfect dodge. Basically double the boost for each level of the Evasion skill. 

What it does NOT do...
It doesn't change Dragon Piercer in any manner not directly related to Coatings.
It doesn't change the motion values of any attacks
It doesn't change the number of Coatings you can use since that would interfere with Bandolier / Tetrad Shot.  There are other lua-based mods if you want to tamper with that. 

Requirements
Get REFramework and FluffyModManager like everything else on this site. 

Installation
Assuming you've got REFramework installed and Loose File Loading turned on, just drag the zip file into FluffyModManager and switch it on there. 

Compatibility Issues
Won't be compatible with any other mod that changes the General Parameters for Bows.  Lua script stuff should be fine though, if anyone makes any of those in future. 

Extra Disclaimers
If you use this online there is a fair chance that someone will notice your increased damage output (especially with the coating boosts), report you, and get you banned.   If you use it in Arena Challenges, you're very naughty and should be ashamed of yourself.   You're better off sticking to offline... but if you do get banned for using it online, my mod wasn't responsible and I never knew you.  

Also thanks to Synthlight for making the MHWS Editor tool I used to fiddle the files and put this together.
