Why should I care about this mod?

Overhauls Nightreign to be enjoyable for both Solo and Duo players
Introduces new additions like Character Reworks and Weapon Affinities

FIA v25 is available now! Updated for Nightreign's v1.02.1 Regulation

What is ModEngine3? Why does FIA require this now?

Mod Engine 3 is a modding framework for FromSoft games that allows you to launch mods as ".me3" profiles (ex. FIA_SeamlessCoop.me3)
After installing ModEngine3, These ".me3" profiles can be launched like a ".exe" to magically find Nightreign and launch the modded game
Think of ModEngine3 'layering' FIA ontop of Nightreign like a blanket- thus requiring no need to install anything into the game directory itself!
This also means you are free to move the "Fun is Allowed_ERNightreign_vXX" folder anywhere on your PC and it will still work
FIA uses ME3 because it allows me to modify UI files, animation files, text files and more

Install Guide:

Download and install ModEngine3 (get it from HERE and go to "Releases". Grab the "me3_installer.exe" --- "Installer for Windows")
Download Seamless Coop (you should see a "SeamlessCoop" folder sitting right next to "nrsc_launcher.exe")
Inside the "Seamless Coop" folder, copy everything inside and paste it into the "\FIA\native" folder
Launch "FIA_SeamlessCoop.me3"

Common Question: Can I move my save file back to Vanilla Nightreign?
Answer: No. This mod assumes you will be banned. Do NOT do this.

New Major Release: The Revenant Character Rework

The Revenant Character Rework is finally here!
Revenant is no longer a Spellcaster w/ Summons ... Summoner is now her core playstyle!
Each summon acts as a specific tool in her kit, providing powerful synergies
Intro Skills, Spirit Skulls, Spirit Binding, galore! This isn't normal Revenant anymore

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Revenant Character Rework_v25 Changelog + Thoughts:

v25:
- Tweaked FoV values across the game to expand the camera for certain fights (mostly against bigger bosses)
- Tweaked FoV to (hopefully) reduce motion sickness regarding Surge Sprint values
- Revenant HP Scaling made to be oppressive once again:
  - Revenant's overall HP pool hasn't actually been nerfed- only how its distributed as she levels up
  - Revenant now stays squishy early from Levels [1] --> [6]
  - The difference this time, is that Rev's largest HP gains are now at Levels [7] and [8]
  - Re-emphasizes that Rev is weak early, but she is still capable of doing [Day 2] content
  - Starlight Shards and +HP Relics should be enough to help players overcome this challenge
- Adjusted Rev's HP buffs from [Spirit Binding] (mostly a nerf to [Frederick's Spirit] from [2x] --> [1.7x] HP multiplier)
- Nerfed Starlight Shard HP multiplier from [5%] --> [2.5%] per proc for all characters
- Fixed Sebas' [[Magic Spirit Skull]] not actually giving Rev the protective buff ... whoops. (she gets a visible blue effect now!)
- Improved and/or added [Hyper Poise] to:
  - All of Recluses' Mana Shields
  - Executor's Cursed stance
  - Executor's [[Sun Beast]] proc
  - Revenant's Frederick summon
  - Revenant's protection by Sebas' [[Magic Spirit Skull]
- Added [Weapon Tags] to the game:
  - [Tags] are information added before/after the weapon's name, to denote key information to the player
  - First tag update is adding [DEX] at the end of all Weapons that scale primarily with the Dexterity stat in Nightreign
  - This is to help Rev players figure out quickly which weapons work best with [Helen's Spirit], but is also useful for other characters
  - Unlike normal Elden Ring- most weapons scale with Strength in Nightreign
  - You can rely on the fact that if the weapon doesn't say [DEX]- it probably scales with Strength
  - Did the same thing to the few weapons in NR that scale with Faith
  - Will be taking advantage of this naming scheme to do cool things in future updates!
- Cleaned up several params

v23:
- Storm Ruler is now (hopefully) finally fixed
- Revenant's Claws can now be dropped again, in consideration of Everdark Augur's new mechanic
- Increased Rev's HP Scaling. On average, she starts significantly lower than Recluse, until they converge at [537] HP at [Lv.8]. Aftterwards, Rev is slightly lower again. This should hopefully make it so Rev is overall more fragile than vanilla NR, but not frustratingly so.
- Rev's HP now fully restores during a [Spirit Binding], so they're not chugging Estus to benefit from the Max HP buffs
- Frederick's added DMG Negation buffed from [40%] --> [70%]
- Frederick now has [Hyper Poise]; meaning he is very unlikely to stagger anymore during a fight
- The heal from Rev's Lyre to Fred has been doubled to [2%] of Fred's Current HP + [30] Flat HP per Second
- All "Heal" Incantations in the game now disproportionally heals Revenant's Summons- especially for Frederick
- Sebas' [[Lesser Rancor]] projectiles now have their additional Blight Buildup removed and shoots [2] per proc, with increased DMG
- Starlight Shards buffed overall. They now give all characters [5%] Increased Max HP per proc, however they give additional [Vigor] to Recluse and Revenant
- Recluse gets [1] Vigor per Starlight Shard (20HP) and this is doubled for Revenant (40HP)
- Nerfed Spirit Binding stat buffs to reflect Revenant's new HP Scaling
- Hopefully these changes make Revenant more fun + fair to play as!

v22:
- (painfully) Re-did custom work on c000.anibnd.dcx to ensure full 1.02 Nightreign compatibility. Its possible some things broke ...
- Dasaav figured out why users were crashing. This should be fixed. Thank you!
- Added 'Difficulty Modifiers' to the game via Gestures. They make the game HARDER and only proc [60] seconds after respawning!
- Made [[Magic Spirit Skull]] smaller, more transparent with a lighter hue of blue (to help make Revenant more readable

v21 - Revenant Rework:
- Rebuilt + Fixed for Nightreign v1.02
- Unlike a Character Overhaul- Revenant has been completely Reworked and no longer plays as the same as vanilla
- Revenant is now weak, her stats are trash and dies easily
- In exchange? Her synergy with summons has never been stronger
- The changes are extensive- its recommended to read the FIA Overview, but playing her gives you the full picture.

Revenant changes:
- Stats has been severely nerfed (EXCEPT her Faith stat!)
- Pulling out Lyre (Skill Button) now gives you 13 iFrames
- Pulling out Lyre or summoning her family will inflict Death Blight Buildup on Rev

- Rev summoning any family member always procs a Summon-specific [Intro Skill]
- Rev proc'ing Ultimate near any family member will [Spirit Bind] them to her, giving her HP + Stats in return!
- All Summons have their HP & DMG Negation universally increased

Helen (Sword Page) changes:
- She is now a powerful DPS Summon, built to kill Bosses she normally couldn't face
- Helen's attacks now restores FP back to Rev
- Helen does 25% increased DMG, her melee attacks procs Ghostflames and inflicts [Frostbite]
- Helen's [Intro Skill] procs [[Icy Spirit Skull]], an immobile entity that shoots Frost Shards at Helen- but deals DMG only to enemies
- Rev can de-summon Helen to steal [[Icy Spirit Skull]] for herself. Having it harmlessly shoot at Rev, but restores her FP
- Pulling out Lyre (Skill Button) nearby now gives Helen direct iFrames, allowing her to solo like never before!
- Rev proc'ing her Ult near Helen binds her Spirit, giving Rev [[Helen's Spirit]]
- [[Helen's Spirit]] grants Rev [1.6x] HP, doubled [2x] Max Stam and [40] DEX for [180] seconds!

Frederick (Burly Tank) changes:
- He is now a proper Tank Summon, built to survive Night Lords when needed
- Whenever Fred takes DMG near Rev, he restores FP back to her
- Fred's Ultimate DMG has been buffed and now spawns with 3200 HP (!)
- Fred now has [Hyper Poise] (aka, he doesn't stagger easily anymore)
- HOWEVER, Fred's [Intro Skill] procs [[Burning Spirit Skull]] that slowly kills Fred
- Pulling out Lyre (Skill Button) and moving near Fred restores his HP, keeping him in the fight!
- Rev can de-summon Fred to steal [[Burning Spirit Skull]] for herself, spewing magma in front of her and into enemies
- Rev proc'ing Ult near Fred binds his Spirit, giving Rev [[Frederick's Spirit]]
- [[Frederick's Spirit]] grants Rev [1.7x] HP and [40] STR, but at the cost of [-40 DEX] for [180] seconds!

Sebastian (Big Skeleton) changes:
- He is now a proper Mana Summon, built to be the best option to restore Rev's FP
- Pulling out Lyre (Skill Button) and moving near Sebas restores [2%] Current FP + [3] Flat FP per second
- Pulling out Lyre also sends out two [[Lesser Rancor]] projectiles at enemies, each dealing [77] Magic DMG
- Sebas' [Intro Skill] sends out a [[Magic Spirit Skull]] to protect Rev for 12 seconds
- Rev proc'ing Ult near Fred binds his Spirit, giving Rev [[Sebastian's Spirit]]
- [[Sebastian's Spirit]] grants Rev [1.5x] HP and [20] INT, in addition to a whopping [2x] Max FP Multiplier (!)

Other changes:
- [Starlight Shards] now grants [2.5%] Increased Max HP. This buff also adds [Vigor] for Revenant and Recluse
- Nerfed [[Shadow Beast]] DMG Multiplier from 50% --> 35%
- Nerfed 1.02 Rune Gain for Duos from 30% --> 15% (okay listen, before 1.02- there was Duos scaling if someone left in a 3-team. It used to be 10%. 30% is too much for FIA)
- Other changes/stuff I don't remember because I've worked on this for 2 weeks straight

Mr. Gaiety's thoughts:

With Nightreign 1.02's Duos Mode- Fun Is Allowed transitioned from being a Rebalance mod, into a Overhaul.

The #1 design philosophy with the Revenant update was "Make Revenant <-> Summons more interactive".

Initially this was meant to be just a character overhaul. However as I kept making changes, I realized this wasn't normal Revenant anymore. I was clearly pushing her in a direction that went against what Fromsoft (probably?) envisioned, as the strength of Rev's summons made sense in a productive 3-man team.

But as someone who loved playing Necromancer in Diablo II, this wasn't enough for me. For once, I had the knowledge/experience to change the game into what I wanted.

This is controversial for anyone who did enjoy Revenant's original playstyle. Which is why I'm making it clear this is a Character Rework, but not a Character Overhaul. I hope Rev mains will still find this version of the character fun to play.

What else did this mod change?

Hopefully this gives everyone more transparency on what exactly FIA changes.
