About this mod
A large-scale overhaul of Pals in general. Every Pal gets updated from Lamball to Xenolord! Stats, general traits, partner skills, typings, even item drops!

==================================================================
Note: This mod does not touch work suitability or mount stats. Those are handled by separate mods I made, which can be found below:
Work Suitabilities Plus
Mounted Overhaul
The overall point of this mod is to give Pals universal enhancements that make them feel more like the scary and powerful creatures they're made out to be, even remaining tough towards the end game and providing a much more real threat throughout your playthrough, as well as better necessitating reliance on Pals to do a majority of the fighting/damage.

To install this mod after PalSchema is installed, simply extract the mod

"mods" folder.
Thanks to PalSchema functionality, this mod is compatible with most other mods, though due to the sheer size of this mod and how much it impacts, it may face more compatibility issues than most typical PalSchema mods.

Mod Features:
*Large-Scale Base Stat Changes - Every Pal from Lamball to Xenolord has gotten stat updates! Every Pal is stronger to varying degrees, making them feel more like the powerful creatures they're made out to be, and even maintaining their strength into the end game!
*Type Adjustments - Smaller but still significant, several Pals have had their types adjusted in ways that make more sense and add a bit of extra type diversity. Kitsun, for example, is now Fire/Ice like you might expect! Or Lovander that's become a more fitting Normal/Dragon combo.
*Partner Skill Updates - These are still a work in progress since many partner skill effects are defined internally with something called a T-Map, which isn't yet supported by PalSchema for editing. However, some are changed that don't rely on T-Maps, which is an ongoing process.
*Miscellaneous Adjustments - Small details like gender ratios and even wild Pal aggression have been tweaked in some areas to produce more natural feeling results. Gildane, for example, no longer aggros on sight, meaning you get a break from everything trying to murder you at Feybreak.
*Drop Updates - Every single Pal has had drops adjusted! Some have better rates or drop quantities, while others have new items that make sense for them.
*Alpha Enhancements - Alpha Pals now feel a bit nicer, having a consistent +25% HP universally, as well as greater item drop quantities and rates. Additionally, those that serve as bosses across the map have the chance to drop work suitability books now! More changes planned! I also fixed fairly universal errors made by Pocket Pair in regards to Alpha drops.

===Future Plans & Recommended Mods===
This mod is by no means complete. All Pals have had stats and drops adjusted, but there's still many tweaks to be made, Partner Skills to do, and more. In the future, adding new (and previously cut) Pals is also a plan, though I can't make any promises. I'll add more to this as things develop, and as needed. Some changes are still needed in the near future such as tweaking raid and tower bosses, as well as tweaks to Predator Pals. These will come in a later update.Recommended Mods - These enhance the gameplay experience in tandem with this mod:
*Passive Skill Overhaul - Reworks Passive Skills and adds a ton of new ones!
*Work Suitabilities Plus - Pluses Work Suitability on a variety of Pals in small ways that make sense.

*Oil Rig Overhaul - Rebalancing for the level 55 and level 60 oil rigs, including an overhaul to the chest loot that makes it worth grabbing.
