About this Mod
Dual Stance
This mod introduces the pair up system, inspired by Fire Emblem Awakening+Fates, along with 'crests' from FE: Three Houses.
With a Heart Seal, players can pair up with each other, providing bonuses to support each other as long as they stay close together. Crests are attached to unpaired Heart Seals akin to a Bundle to provide extra bonuses.
Simply right click on each other while holding crested Heart Seals to pair up! When linked together, your attacks won't harm your partner. The pair will stay active as long as the players are within 10 blocks of each other.
Crests
Crests apply their bonus to both players when linked up. Plus, some pairs will gain further effects depending on the combination of Crests used!
- Crest of Peace: +1 Armor, +1 Armor Toughness
- Crest of Bones: +10% Attack Speed
- Crest of Stone: +1 Attack Damage
- Crest of Emblems: +1 Luck, Instant Health every 20 seconds
- Crest of Specters: +10% Movement Speed
- Crest of Shells: -50% Burning Time, +0.25 Oxygen Bonus, Saturation every 10 seconds
- Crest of Pacifism: Players with this Crest will be unable to deal or take direct attack damage. A pair can only have one Pacifist at a time
- Crest of the Enchanter: Players with this Crest will take additional damage, but only deal half as much. In exchange, the Enchanter greatly buffs their partner. A pair can only have one Enchanter at a time
- Crest of Hatred: Players with this Crest will take much more damage, but will deal twice as much
