Summary
SUMMARY: Balance "Shadow and related nether monsters favor cold theming over electric, other overrides ported from Arcana"
Purpose of change
This effectively ports over some of the last remaining changes to vanilla monsters from Arcana, except for stuff specific to the mod like the death drop overrides. This is mainly to further flesh out and make certain monster interactions a bit weirder without having to keep them in a mod override.
Describe the solution
ELECTRIC
would give in exchange for cold damage being harder to mitigate).COLDPROOF
flag. Also comes with the removal of theELECTRIC
flag from monsters that had it.FLIES
applied to flesh angel.Describe alternatives you've considered
COLDPROOF
to zombie masters, zombie necromancers, and flying polyps, along with adding cold damage to hunting horrors, as was standard in Arcana before I decided it was okay to give that the axe during cleanup today (via commit: chaosvolt/cdda-arcana-mod@e695dbf).ELECTRIC
flag.Testing
Checked affected files for syntax and lint errors, and did the math on damage changes for shadow monsters.
