MHGU Rebalance mod

This mod intends to balance the game in order to reduce the power gap between weapons and styles, and to make element a better option for most weapons.

Palicoes/Prowlers were changed to give each bias a more defined role, with Gather, Fighter, and Beast being damage cats, Bomb and Guard being safer alternatives since they have adept dodge/guard but losing a bit of damage due to that, Charisma being a generalist, and Heal and Assist being support.

To install extract it to your mods folder if you are using ryujinx (should look like this: mods\contents\0100770008dd8000\GU rebalanced), or to the mhgu folder in atmosphere\contents if you are using a modded switch (should look like this: atmosphere\contents\0100770008dd8000\GU rebalanced).

If you downloaded the HD mod compatible version you just have to replace the resident.arc file (located in: GU rebalanced\romfs\nativeNX\loc\arc) with the appropriate one depending on your preferred button layout (you still need the appropriate layout from the HD mod as this only has the shared file, not all of them). As for language the file you replace has very few words in english which don't affect your ability to play the game so I didn't make one for every language (will probably make one for every language after the final update of this mod though)

For the XX version, if you are using citra just extract the mod and place the romfs folder into the XX mods folder (should look like this: Citra\load\mods\0004000000197100\romfs). If you are using a modded 3DS place the romfs folder into the XX title folder (should look like this: luma\titles\0004000000197100\romfs)

To make sure the mod works check if any of the weapon changes have applied

If you have any suggestions leave them in the issues page, or DM me at potobc on discord.

All Weapons

All blademaster MV changes are also HA generation changes.
Shots have their HA generation changes specified with their respective moves due to them not being 1:1 with MVs like with blademaster attacks.
Ailment modifier refers to both element and status as it affects both of them.
Adjusted SP mode cost increase

Deviant weapons:

Did a few changes to some deviant weapons that I thought I should point out For the weapons that don't have access to Snowbaron weapons the Elderfrost ones were changed to be more elementally inclined (340 raw instead of 370 and access to purple, still more raw oriented but they have more element this way) Gave Grimclaw weapons dragon element since its SA had a dragon phial and all weapons can use it except IG DB lacks a fire deviant weapon so I changed Deadeye’s stats to match Dreadking, and I replaced their model with the Twin Star Blades IG lacks both a fire and dragon deviant weapon. For fire I changed Stonefist to match Dreadking stats (since Soulseer already exists as a water option), and for dragon I changed Bloodbath to match Grimclaw stats. I know they don’t use the element I gave them but IG does not have a lot of deviant weapons for me to choose from (literally has the least amount of deviant weapons in the game)

Valor Rebalance:

Valor generation has been changed to allow for players to have 100% uptime with valor state provided they are aggressive enough
Getting to valor mode has been made a bit harder to give more incentive to staying in valor mode
Valor sheath damage reduction reduced for blademaster 70% > 50%, and gunner 85% > 65%
Moves only accessible in valor mode and Hunter Arts have been given increased valor generation which allows for 100% uptime, these are specified in the Valor section of the weapon. Regular Attacks also got small valor generation increases.

Alchemy Rework:

Alchemy gain is now MV based (used to be arbitrary from the looks of it), with 1 MV giving 6 Alchemy charge for blademaster, and each Alchemy gauge being 3000 so 500MVs equal 1 gauge.
Formula for shots is (Mod MV) x (Base Alchemy Gen)/(Base MV) x 1,5/2/3 (1,5 for regular shots, 2 for Internal shots, and 3 for all elemental/status shots since they had lower base alchemy gen than other shots)
Hunter Arts and some attacks get a larger increase in Alchemy generation specified in the Alchemy section of the weapon as the number of gauges they give you, for example if it says 0,5 it means you get half a gauge. Gauge gain of multi-hit attacks is based on what % of the total MVs they do.
There are some exceptions to the above since there isn't any overflow so all single hit HA are only able to give 1 gauge, and HA where the damage is focused on a single or few attacks (marked with *) will have a more even spread while still giving higher MV moves more gauge gen.
Due to the increase in alchemy gauge generation the numbers of bars you have to spend in order to increase SP Arts level has increased 2/5/12 > 3/8/18
Alchemy Fireball fixed damage increased 60 > 150, stagger mod increased 1,3 > 1,6
Alchemy Sonic Bomb and Remedy cook time removed.
Alchemy Item changes

Move Speed:

Move speed was measured in how long it took weapons to cross the arena starting area Not gonna put the actual speed values because they aren't 1:1 between weapons (base SA Axe mode has 360 in speed and LBG has 350 but SA is still slower) GS/Lance/GL/SA Sword/CB Axe 11,8s > 10,8s SA Axe 8,2s > 6,2s CB Sword 7,2s > 6,6s LBG 6,8s > 5,9s LS/Hammer 6,5s > 6,2s SnS 5,9s > 5,65s DB 5,65s > 5,0s

All Move Speeds: Running: 3,80s Bow (Haster Rain): 4,40s SA (Tempest Axe): 4,70s DB/HH (SI)/IG (White): 5,00s SnS: 5,65s LBG: 5,90s Walking/LS/Hammer/SA Axe: 6,20s IG/Bow: 6,40s CB Sword: 6,60s HH (No SI): 8,40s GS/Lance/GL/SA Sword/CB Axe: 10,80s HBG: 11,40s

Weapons:

I really wanted to change all weapons but I’m already taking too long on the update, so I decided to just change the elemental deviant weapons, though as a consolation I also changed status deviants. I also gave them each a server and blunt version (X/XX version respectively)

Support Moves Cost:

Barrel Bombay 0 > 1
Cheer Horn gauge cost 3 > 2
Furrious gauge cost 4 > 3
Pilfer gauge cost 4 > 3
Plunderrang gauge cost 4 > 2
Poison Purr-ison gauge cost 5 > 4
True Health Horn gauge cost 3 > 2

Skill Size:

Changed palico skill slots progression so you now get 10 slots at max level. You get the 8th slot at level 70 (was 75), the 9th at level 85, and the 10th at level 99. The game doesn't show your skill slots once you have 9+ but they still work, you just won't see them.

Optional Palico Changes:

Moves:

Assist: emergency retreat > piercing Boomerang
Fighting: piercing Boomerang > emergency retreat
Switched those two since I wanted to keep the 2 bias per move rule and fighting is melee focus so emergency retreat gives it a good and inherent healing move. (same reasoning for giving Assist piercing since it's ranged focused)
Bomb: Mega Barrel Bombay > Giga Barrel Bombay (Mega replaces Giga in A tier skills, doesn't make sense for Bomb to not have innate access to the best Bomb move)

Skills:

Charisma: Slacker slap > weakness exploit (slacker slap wasn't useful so this way you can get wex without the save editor or XX exclusive cats)
Fighting: Attack up S > Extend Fury (Attack Up is now a C tier skil replacing tremos res., with the it taking extend fury place in B tier)
Beast: Recovery Speed Up > Extend Beast (Recovery Speed Up replace biology in C tier)
Replaced Goldenfish Catcher, Negate Confusion and wind, Stamina Drain, and Non-stick fur, with an elemental boost skill (ice, water, and dragon boost, megaflare, and nagatobimaru), and made them 1 cost.

Optional since the game does have a sanity check and will unequip moves/skills if you have any illegal ones, so you will have to use a save editor or grind if you want to use these changes.
To install it, download the optional changes and replace the resident.arc file inside GU rebalanced\romfs\nativeNX\loc\arc, or luma\titles\0004000000179800\romfs\arc with the one from the optional changes folder.
