Making the player rely more on Concentration is something I want to avoid, as having it overheat mid-battle and waiting for it to cool down while dodging a boss is the original problem I had when the Power Beam used mana.
It needs to cool down fast enough so that you aren't left effectively weaponless mid-battle (assuming you're only using weapons from this mod)...
I'm just gonna tweak the damage of the Phazon Beam (and possibly other beams) first, then I'll tweak overheat...
(Edit: Oh wait, where you also wearing the Shadowed Phazon Suit? Because its set bonus increases the Phazon Beam's damage. But if you weren't wearing it, then I guess it needs more of a nerf than I thought...)
The hell?
I coded this mod, so I'd most likely know what use to have effects and what didn't. And I swear, the Nova
Laser never had the ability to inflict the Ichor debuff on enemies. However, the Nova
Beam used to have that ability... but I removed it because it made the Nova Beam overpowered (and it wasn't fitting since it's more of a "cursed" weapon).
If it isn't one thing it's another...
I'm half tempted to remove the X-Ray Visor, because people are saying it's underpowered... And I agree, the only reason I added it in the first place was because I thought it was cool. I hardly considered how much of a use it served.
Well, the Dark World is definitely going to be a thing...
