Hey guys can anyone give me their honest review/impressions of the ICE Mod? Seems interesting but the changelist feels overwhelming and I don't know if it's worth checking out. I only intend to play solo.
What are the exact changes from normal iceborne to ICE mod iceborne ?
and are there any changes to the weapons? if so what are the changes to all the weapons ?
This is the info that I’m reading off their GitHub link (I have not installed this mod so I can’t speak from experience sorry), Here
First of all, you won’t be playing with normal hunters apparently, it should make it so you can only hunt with other “Ice” users
Monster hit zones seem to have been reworked and changed to be closer to pre iceborne values, along with clutch claw softening being nerfed to make it less impactful and more of a secondary useful feature, clagger animations have also been removed and replaced with normal flinch, trip, and topple animations instead.
Various buffs to the hunter have been made to increase the attack, element and status caps. The clutch claw now acts as if you have the shaver jewel on innately
MR experience from MR25-100 has been doubled to make it easier to grind to MR100 for augments and other resource farming, the guiding lands has been reworked to make it alittle easier to farm level 7 in multiple zones
Certain decos are now guaranteed drops through the story
Safijiva dracolites have been added to the guiding lands so people can level up their safi weapons outside of her siege
Guiding lands mats and gathering rates have been strongly boosted
Various skills changed from iceborne back to base world status and other buffs to various skills (too many to write down lol)
Weapons have been tweaked so you can play elemental builds more efficiently
For now armour changes include nerfing velkhana gamma and fatty to reduce power creep as they are gonna be adding and changing the end game through their devolpment
Health aug delay for melee weapons and ranged weapons buffed.
Changes to safi awakened attack 5 and 6 for GS and hammer to match with other weapons, Aqua shot ammo tables shared with other safi lbg but with respect to their element
Various QoL changes
Flinch free lvl2 and up can stop hunter launches, shields changed so hunter attacks are ignored
Various bug fixes
New play styles added for various weapons and various mechanics changed
That’s all the changes in a nutshell, if you want more in-depth look at it go look at the GitHub link I posted at the start lol
Edit-fixed info
They have a pretty comprehensive list of changes in the github Readme, https://github.com/AsteriskAmpersand/Ice-Stable
