"Fix" missing rewards for "Legendary Hero"
« on: 08 May 2023, 21:59:28 »
[Introduction]
When creating a "Legendary Hero" (beginner from the Eternal Embers add-on), the character does not receive all the rewards for Normal and Epic difficulty quests, namely:
  • For Normal and Epic: do not give +5% total damage (i.e. +10% in total) for the quest "Hades' Generals";
  • For Epic: do not give +100% HP to pets for the quest "Giant Yeti";
  • For the Legend: they don't give anything at all.
Also, there are "strange things" in the Attribute and Skill Points received by such a character.

[Theory]
Now more about the Attribute and Skill points. Count by formulas:
  • (n-1)×3 for Skill points;
  • (n-1)×2 for Attribute points,
   where n is the character's level (i.e. 70).

[Theory. Skill points]
Calculate for Skill Points: (70-1)×3=207 (Skill Points for 69 level).
The "Legendary Hero" starts with 221 Skill Points.
221-207=14 (Skill Points received as a "quest rewards").
Check:
   (Quest)Spartans at War          +1 Skill Point
   (Quest)A Telkine in Egypt        +2 Skill Points
   (Quest)The Beast of Legend    +2 Skill Points
   (Quest)The Dust of a Titan      +2 Skill Points
                                      Total: 7 Skill Points
I.e. 7 Skill Points for Normal. Counting for Normal + Epic: 7×2=14

Everything seems to be fine (14=14), provided that the addititonal Skill Points from the Ragnarök add-on are not counted and we don’t give anything out for the Legend at all (why?).
According to the "legend", the developers did not specifically add extra Points for the "Legendary Hero" that can be obtained in the add-on Ragnarök, since not everyone who has the Eternal Embers add-on may have bought/installed the Ragnarök add-on. It seems to be logical, but was it really difficult to check for the presence of an add-on and issue Skill Points based on the presence/absence of the Ragnarök DLC (since with the release of this add-on, many things are done in the code ("hardcoded"), including the issuance of rewards for previous quests difficulties for the "Legendary Hero" - in this case, the implementation (writing of code) of checking for the presence of an add-on when issuing awards to the "Legendary Hero" is a matter of 10 seconds (the function for checking for add-ons is already present in the code, just call it))?
Because of this, ALL (and those with Ragnarök enabled) players do not receive additional Skill Points:
   (Quest)The Trapped Nixie          +1 Skill Point
   (Quest)Dvergar History             +2 Skill Points
                                        Total: 3 Skill Points
I.e. 3 Skill Points for Normal. Counting for Normal + Epic: 3×2=6

Conclusion: "Legendary Hero" does not get an additional 6 Skill Points (assuming the player has the Ragnarök add-on).

[Theory. Attribute points]
Calculate for Attribute Points: (70-1)×2=138 (Attribute Points for 69 level).
The "Legendary Hero" starts with 156 Attribute Points.
156-138=18 (Skill Points received as a "quest rewards").
Check:
   (Quest)The Good Centaur                  +2 Attribute Points
   (Quest)The Invocation                       +2 Attribute Points
   (Quest)The Emperor's Clay Soldiers    +2 Attribute Points
                                                Total: 6 Attribute Points
I.e. 6 Attribute Points for Normal. Counting for Normal + Epic: 6×2=12

Where does the +6 Attribute Points come from (1812)?

Conclusion: The "Legendary Hero" gains an additional 6 Attribute Points that he shouldn't have received.

[Author's comments]
Why does the "Legendary Hero" get an extra 6 Attribute Points that he shouldn't have? If for Legendary difficulty, then why didn't they add Legend rewards for Skill Points?

Why do we get nothing at all for Legendary difficulty? Because the Eternal Embers add-on has a portal to the beginning of the game? When creating a "Legendary Hero" specifically for the Eternal Embers add-on, do we first need to complete the main game in order to get all the bonuses? So by this logic, then don't give bonuses to a "Accomplished Hero" (for starters with the Ragnarök add-on). After all, they also added a portal to the beginning of the game.

Or do the developers make it possible to "legally" create a character that starts the main game from Legendary difficulty, and not just a character for completing the Eternal Embers add-on? Then where is +10% total damage from Normal and Epic, as well as +2 HP && +100% HP of pets from Epic?

[Fix]
Spoiler for Video:
Download

Installation: In the game folder, go to the Database folder, create a Quests folder and drop the downloaded file into it.

[Fix. Description]
In the folder on Google Drive (from the download link above) there are 4 folders:
Spoiler for Normal+Epic:
Normal+Epic - adds all the missing rewards for the Normal and Epic difficulties, excluding the Ragnarök add-on:
-6 (minus!) Attribute Points (phantom Points from developers);
+2 HP & +100% HP for pets;
+10% total damage.
Spoiler for Normal+Epic(RR incl.):
Normal+Epic(RR incl.) - adds all the missing rewards for Normal and Epic difficulties, taking into account the Ragnarök add-on:
-6 (minus!) Attribute Points (phantom Points from developers);
+6 Skill Points;
+2 HP && +100% HP for pets;
+10% total damage.
Spoiler for Normal+Epic+Legendary:
Normal+Epic+Legendary - adds all the missing rewards for the Normal, Epic and Legendary difficulties, excluding the Ragnarök add-on:
+7 Skill Points;
+5 HP && +200% HP for pets;
+5% elemental resistance;
+15% total damage;
+400 HP;
+18 Strength;
+8 Intelligence;
+8 Dexterity.
Spoiler for Normal+Epic+Legendary(RR incl.):
Normal+Epic+Legendary(RR incl.) - adds all the missing rewards for the Normal, Epic and Legendary difficulties, taking into account the Ragnarök add-on:
+16 Skill Points;
+5 HP && +200% HP for pets;
+5% elemental resistance;
+15% total damage;
+400 HP;
+18 Strength;
+8 Intelligence;
+8 Dexterity.
[Fix. Notes]
  • The character will receive rewards as soon as he leaves the starting (spawn) zone of the Eternal Embers add-on and receives the quest message: "Main Quest Updated..." (see video).
  • There is a check for the "Legendary Hero" (a hero with only Legend difficulty available). I.e. ordinary characters who have gone from Normal to Legendary in the Eternal Embers add-on will not receive these rewards for the second time.
  • If you downloaded the "fix" version without rewards for Legendary difficulty: Normal+Epic or Normal+Epic(RR incl.) - allocate attribute points after receiving rewards (see paragraph 1), since 6 Skill Points are taken away there and they may go negative.
    In the "fix" versions with rewards for the Legendary difficulty, Attribute Points are not deducted, because for this difficulty, you are supposed to receive 6 Attribute Points as rewards for quests, and by subtracting 6 "phantom" Points from the developers, we end up with 0.
