KDefense XP

by Kyonides Arkanthes

Introduction

Did you ever want to know how does it feel like to get truly weaken by a foe?  
Now you can!
Just let my script help you create a state that will reduce your PDEF or MDEF by some points every turn till the state wears off!
Nope, the effects will last till you heal your hero or battle is over.  
Don't worry! You can create a skill or an item to heal them.

The 2024 edition also lets you achieve the exact opposite of every single thing I have told you so far.

The Script

Code:

# * KDefense XP * #
#   Scripter : Kyonides Arkanthes
#   2024-03-05

# This scriptlet allows you to reduce a hero's or monster's PDEF or MDEF.
# If the target was inflicted with a PDEF- or MDEF- state, it will lose some
# percent of that stat every single turn till the state wears off.
# The state's PDEF Rate or MDEF Rate will be substracted from your target'script
# PDEF or MDEF as plain points. I find it incovenient to use percents there.
# You cannot remove the effect by simply removing the state.
# Use a specific item or skill to heal your hero or wait till battle is over.
# Configure the KDefense module's Constants to let the script find your new
# states, skills and items. Set any value to 0 if you don't need it.
