LEGION OF CHAMPIONS RELOADED
*********************************************************************
(A mod by Bumbleguppy, Nargil66, and HekTo)


Legion of Champions Reloaded is a continuation of the original Legion of Champions mod by Bumbleguppy, an exceptional modder and a great friend who dedicated more than a decade to its development. It is a true honor to continue working on this amazing project. The original mod was one of the reasons I started modding Titan Quest and a major source of inspiration for me.

LoC Reloaded builds upon and improves my older LoC 2024 version, introducing numerous new features, additions, and bug fixes. Many of these improvements would not have been possible without HekTo's incredible coding work. His contributions have brought features to Titan Quest that I previously thought were impossible, pushing the boundaries of what modding can achieve.

Without further ado, I hope you enjoy Legion of Champions Reloaded!

NSTALLATION

1. Install the custom maps mod.
Place the -loc_r folder, containing the database and resources folders, in your CustomMaps directory, usually located at:
.../Documents/My Games/Titan Quest - Immortal Throne/CustomMaps
If the CustomMaps folder does not exist, create it manually. This installation method should also allow you to play the mod through Steam.

2. Back up the original game files.
IMPORTANT: LoC Reloaded requires replacing certain base-game files to function properly. Before proceeding, make backup copies of the following files in the root installation directory of Titan Quest: Anniversary Edition:
Game.dll
Engine.dll
TQ.exe

3. Download the replacement files.
Download the replacement files from the links below. The most important of these files (the mod will NOT work without them) are:
Game.dll
guloadsim.dll

Optional files are:
Engine.dll
TQ.exe

Don't worry — these replacements will not break the vanilla game. They actually introduce several improvements and fix some long-standing issues.

4. Replace the original files.
Place the downloaded files in the root installation directory of Titan Quest, overwriting the original files.

5. Launch the mod.
Start the game, open the Play Custom Quest menu, and select -loc_r from the mod list.

6. Enjoy!

Hello Nargil,

Congraz in mod realase 

Started to playing hour ago and its been great , it brings good memories from the past

I got 2x observations so far

-i pick natures for 1st mastery , only invested in Hamadryds and couldnt do any dmg to pandarus quest monster (its bit tough and got litle much life drain per hit)

-2nd when i arrive to sparta, game starts lagging at point to be very dificult to playing, i tried to resart the game, and the issue continue, i had to skip the entire sparta area and chose the rebirth in sparta highlands to kept playing as the performance changed to normal

I believe theres somthing around sparta that keeps lagging the game (maybe is the amount of skelletons summons from satyrs necromancers (?))

edited : theres 3x healers npcs in one place in Tegea

edited 2: in Megara started laggin again, somthing in towns is making the game lag , not sure if is only on my side

edit 3 : theres almost no mobs in megara coast , like 2-3 itchian and 3 karkinos per group

Hey sauruz, glad to see you!

-i pick natures for 1st mastery , only invested in Hamadryds and couldnt do any dmg to pandarus quest monster (its bit tough and got litle much life drain per hit)

I remember Bumbleguppy saying how he always ran in circles around Pandarus untill pets deal with him But yeah, i'll decrease the life leech.

It might be caused by some of the replaced NPCs that are supposed to be walking but are now static. I'll restore the original ones for the next update, hopefully it will fix the issue. And rework satyr necros to summon satyr ghosts instead of skeletons, just in case. I agree with you that the number of their skeleton minions is far too great.

edited : theres 3x healers npcs in one place in Tegea

Were they on top of each other? I thought this issue was fixed... it's somehow related to the new proxy template and the number of players difficulty setting. Will have to think of another method of spawning healers i guess.

Its nice to see you around as well

yes , the healers were in top of each other, didnt saw that in previous towns, but i will check that when i play

speaking about megara coast, i will throw a suggestion, you see those sharkman summon by the Nereid casters ? they die right as you kill the mage, you almost dont see those big fellas in action, maybe they couldnt die when the mage dies ?

Alright, good idea. I'll also add spears to them, the armed crocman animations look better than bare-handed.

[sauruz]

Yeha, also they got a bite animation that can fit well 

Played until athens batlegrounds, as i got my first crash there, well that area is just cursed.

My feedback so far, its great , but i think some quest monsters and side bosses are bit to tough as i and my pets couldnt do any damage vs then, as for exemple :

-Ancient limos
-Arachne (boss)
-ghost pirate after the cyclops
-ghost pirate after arachne (and he was stuck inside the chest he couldnt move our chase)
-the skelletons brothers in old eleusis
-The giant skelleton after monster war camp

Maybe i needed to get better weapons and more lvls before i fight then, i will try later

I didnt understand the reward when you find the Termerus from "Master Blacksmith", after i talk with him, didnt appear no panel/window to upgrade the iten (?)


You can select the obsidian stones found around the map and attack it (but it doent nothing in fact), not sure if intended

It might be related to the new regen formula, did it seem that bosses recover faster than usual?

I didnt understand the reward when you find the Termerus from "Master Blacksmith", after i talk with him, didnt appear no panel/window to upgrade the iten (?)

Did you use a quest item - "Pure Truesilver" before talking to him?

It is an idea i had that was left unfinished, i'll disable it for the next version.

Yes, with their hp recovery couldnt do any dmg vs then. i remenber fighting with Arachne she heal fast as the pets did dmg, but i didnt notice that "problem" with Ino/Parnassus Boarman or even the gorgons for exemple.

I do think Undead bosses are bit to strong in early lvls , in terms of tanking dmg

i didnt notice.. i dont think so , i will check later

also the wraiths mage heroes have low mana , specially when they use ternion attack their mana goes down in seconds, not even the mana recovery they have do any difference
