Wish you could make more use of your precognitive powers? Now you can!

When the Precognition power is equipped, blocking with a melee weapon drains 5 Star Power per second but ricochets projectiles back to their source! Well, as long as they aren't grenades, and the attacker is standing in front of you - and the effect stops once your Star Power runs out.

Compatibility

This modifies the Precognition Magic Effect. It is very unlikely to conflict with any mod that doesn't dramatically change how Precognition works.

Resource Guide

As this is a Master File, you can easily add this effect to your own mods. Select it in the editor when picking files to load, and then:

  • Adding to a character: Add the TST_Ability_PrecognitiveParry ability to an actor.
  • Adding to a weapon: Add the TST_OMOD_PrecognitiveParry mod to a weapon.
  • Adding as a weapon mod: Edit the TST_OMOD_PrecognitiveParry mod, change the name, and create a new copy, then edit to  suit your weapon.

Versions that cost Oxygen instead of Star Power exist, named RapidDeflection instead of PrecognitiveParry.
You can easily change the costs and ricochet chance:

  • Select TST_Ench_PrecognitiveParry/TST_Ability_PrecognitiveParry, change the name, and create a new copy.
  • Edit the Block Ricochet Chance magnitude to set the % chance.
  • Edit the Block Star Power/Oxygen Cost magnitude to set the cost (or add both costs!).
  • If you edited TST_Ench_PrecognitiveParry you'll need to create a new copy of  TST_OMOD_PrecognitiveParry that applies your new enchantment.

If you want to change the sounds and visuals:

  • Select TST_MGEF_PrecognitiveParry, change the name, and create a new copy.
  • Edit the sounds and visuals however you want.
  • Select TST_Ench_PrecognitiveParry/TST_Ability_PrecognitiveParry, change the name, and create a new copy.
  • Change the `Precognitive Parry` effect item to use your new Magic Effect.
  • Edit the chance and cost however you want.

FAQ

Can NPCs use this effect?
Yes, but none do by default - Starborn don't spawn with **Precognition**.

Can you make blocking cost per projectile instead?
Not in a way that works on an arbitrary number of NPCs.

I get editor warnings that the enchantments have invalid entries?
Constant-effect weapon enchantments that aren't 'Script' seem to do this, but they work fine.

What format is this?
A Light Master.
