I was wondering if there was any way to tweak the damage settings cause when fighting OPTRE covenant I'm getting like two shotted just fighting one elite in ODST armour

Didn't think these existed, thanks for linking it in your other mod

Covenant weapons.

What energy weapons are in Optre? I know Max Terminator has some.

Yes

can this work with KAM?

Nothing special required with regards to treatment, just bandage like any other wound.

The new wounds look great; what's the treatment procedure other than bandaging the HIEHs?

This mod adds new ACE wound types that are more realistic for directed energy weapons. I have not touched the stats of the plasma weapons themselves at all. If you're seeing any AOE damage it's not coming from this mod.

As for dying in one shot, while possible, it shouldn't happen every time, or even be common. Going unconscious from one hit wouldn't be that unusual though, but that can happen with any weapon. But all of that is going to be dependent on your ACE Medical settings, and is beyond the scope of this mod. The only thing this mod does is add new types of wounds. So instead of getting bruises for example, you get thermal burns. Instead of avulsions, you get Explosive Hemorrhages.

This seems to give all the plasma weapons AOE damage and OHK dudes. ODSTs were being killed by one shot from plasma pistols.

Thanks, dunno if there would be a demand but as long as they both can be ran at the same time then all is good.

You'd need both.

I could make a third version that includes both if there's demand for it though.

Would one need both this mod and the Scion conflict compat running at the same time if we have OPTRE and SC loaded? Or would one or the other work fine?

Ablations are similar to avulsions, except they don't bleed since the heat cauterizes them.

Heat Induced Explosive Hemorrhages are caused by the heat vaporizing them bodily fluids which then essentially explode from the body, and can even shatter bone (as seen in the bodies of some who died when Mount Vesuvius erupted). These wounds result in a lot of blood loss, and should be bandaged ASAP.

How does the new wound type differ from standard ACE wounds? Would be nice to know about before hitting the lovely green button.
