Apotheosis - A Vanilla+ Class Overhaul

Apotheosis is a class overhaul project that looks to reinforce and reimagine class fantasies. By doing so the classes hopefully become more interesting to play and syngergize with. Apotheosis features New Abilities, New Animations, Reimagined Attacks, and a fresh balance pass that loosens up the "overtuned vanilla" feeling while still trying to stay in line with normal challenge progression. All 24 classes have been touched up and reworked. Well all except for Mimic. No images for those classes because I didn't want to spoil you.

Viable without a "Specific Build" (Classes can stand on their own and stand even better with any subclass)
Fun and Exploitable (Remove limitations and strange class quirks and add new quirks)
Match Class Fantasies (Add dashes of lore/realism to how Abilities work)
Keep the Challenge (Slightly lower Base Stats to compensate for new gameplay opportunities)
No Degenerate Abilities (Modify all instances of Abilities doing - "Same Damage Different Flavor")

At this time, I have no plans to implement any cross-mod integrations. This mod SHOULD be compatible with any mod that does not touch or interact with the vanilla classes & animations. Even the debuffs that look to replace things like Bleed are actually brand new and containerized in their own folder. If you're a mod author and need to talk so we can coordinate IDs or such, feel free to get in contact, or just open my mod in Crys Edit yourself. I tried to keep things readable just for situations like this.

I've been working with my head down on this mod for 3 months or so. I was unable to playtest every single area, class, interaction, and ability. I 100% expect there to be balance issues. I also expect there to be things I designed in my frenzy that don't play out intuitively at all. And I'm happy to tweak and tune according to community feedback. However I would ask anyone that offers suggestions to consider my design goals and try to avoid knee-jerk reactions to make things more like Vanilla. This is a Vanilla+ mod but it's NOT Vanilla. This mod was made in response to frustrated players that you can find in the Steam Guides and Steam Discussions for this game. So if you find me shooting down your suggestion, please remember that it's not personal.

And ofc it's worth noting that you're free to copy my work, tweak it to your liking and then make an alternate mod. Apotheosis: Tweaks for example. I don't mind things like that.

*Last Note - I'm blown away by the amount of support my little mod has gotten and I'm happy that Apotheosis has found it's way into your load orders! I hope I've even inspired some of you to throw your hat in the ring and give this modding thing a try! Crystal Project is a fantastic platform as all the tools are localized in one singular program. If you've told yourself before that you couldn't do it, try anyways!
Also, I consider this mod to be feature complete. Well, it was feature complete even when I first updated but thanks to super valuable feedback from early players, the mod has been polished up into something I'm rather proud of. I'm not sure what's next, but if Crystal Project ever gets a world/map editor, expect to hear from me again! <3

Steamworkshopdownloader doesn't work for this game. And I understand that there are players that aren't on Steam but still want to use mods. I've taken the time to make an entry on ModDB for Crystal Project and I've uploaded Apotheosis to there. I might forget to update it (if I update this mod), so if you find the versions mis-matching, please contact me or comment.
