I've heard that the newest DD build can cause quite a few issues with mods, but glad to hear that Legacy is handling it properly!

I'm really glad you're enjoying the mod, and I hope you find the new additions, story, and lore to your liking!

The Shambler's 'Degenerative Destiny' attack consistently causes crashes to desktop on the latest build of DD, the only way to prevent it is to switch to the legacy build under the Betas tab. I understand that development on the mod is finished, perhaps somebody will find this comment of use someday.
It's an interesting and high-quality mod, to say the least. The enemy tuning is brutal on higher difficulties, but I can't say that it doesn't get the vision across. I'd recommend giving it a shot, at least until your first champion hero death.

A mod that adjusts quest rewards would definitely conflict with PBD, and likely cause larger issues with quests down the line. DD modding is, unfortunately, not very modular when it comes to some things, and there's no merging tool. Safest thing to do if you still want to run with other mods is to drag them all below PBD, so that PBD's files overwrite those mods if needed.

i took a look and experimented a bit with different mod setups and oddly it seems to have been increased quest rewards, or my luck was exceptionally bizarre. weird that it only happened with the cove.
thats all, i'll stop hogging your comments now!
Maester Silvio  [author] 8 Mar @ 11:46pm 
That definitely shouldn't be the case. Room number should vary between ~10-25 depending on length. Taking a look at the files, everything seems in order. Are any other mods being run, by chance?
cassius 8 Mar @ 12:20pm 
heyo, i've got a quick question - i have noticed dungeon generation length seems completely unaffected by the "length" of a dungeon. like, short, medium, and long length dungeons all are about the same length, at least in the cove. is this intentional or did i break something
Maester Silvio  [author] 5 Mar @ 11:48pm 
Some classes may break the game, if they are extensive enough, but others will just end up being underwhelming after T1 dungeons - always happy to help people with a quick mod fix!
cassius 5 Mar @ 7:28pm 
if i may ask a question myself if you throw on any custom classes with this mod does it just catastrophically fuck the balance or is it acceptable
cassius 5 Mar @ 7:19pm 
posting a custom config for a random person in the steam comments is something only a saint would do
im not even the person it was for and i would die for you now
Maester Silvio  [author] 5 Mar @ 8:32am 
<3 Thank you as well; anything else you need, let me know!
