[WOTC] Iridar's Vanilla Classes Redux

This mod contains bugfixes and balancing improvements for the four base game classes, three WOTC faction hero classes and SPARKs.

• Bugfixes and improvements to soldier abilities, some of them are taken from or inspired by existing mods.
  
• Most classes had their ability trees rearranged for better flow.
  
• Plugged holes in faction heroes' ability trees with cut content abilities or their most important XCOM row abilities.
  
• The pool of available cross-class perks has been expanded, especially for faction heroes.
  
• Many abilities had their (English) descriptions improved for clarity.

This mod is intended as the go-to for fixing everything wrong with vanilla classes, without the need to collect dozens of mods that individually fix small issues. In general, the purpose of this mod is to make vanilla classes more fun, very few things have been nerfed.

>>> COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER MODS <<<

The mod is obviously incompatible with LWOTC and other mods that completely replace vanilla classes with new ones. Mods that tweak the same abilities as this mod may also be incompatible, though at worst some soldier abilities won't work right, you shouldn't experience crashes or other gamebreaking issues.

The Proficiency Class Pack and any other pack that disables vanilla classes and then adds new ones are incompatible out of the box, but most of these can be easily configured to not disable vanilla classes, so they can be made compatible. Though there could still be conflicts if the mod tries to make changes to same abilities the Vanilla Classes Redux does.

However, mods that replace the ability trees of the vanilla classes, such as Proficiency Faction Hero plugins, are incompatible, period.


If necessary, changes to each class can be tweaked or disabled in the config. To completely remove any changes to a particular class, delete the respective class' folder from this mod's Config folder. If you do so, don't forget to remove the respective class' section from Localization\XComGame.int as well.


Thanks to Shiremct for allowing me to copy a few ability icons from his Proficiency mods.
Some changes are inspired by other mods listed above, but unless I forgot something, no code was directly copied without permission.
