README
Spartan
A frontline survivor mod by Insanity, built around spears, shield attacks, and Barrier.
This is an early testing release. Single-player gameplay and visuals have been tested; multiplayer validation is in progress.
Abilities
- Aegis: Gain 25% more Barrier from all sources. Your Barrier decays 25% slower.
- Spear Throw: Throw a spear for 350% damage. Holds three charges, with recharge improved by attack speed.
- Shield Bash: Sweep your shield for 300% damage, knock enemies back, and reduce armor by 60 for eight seconds. Gain Barrier per enemy hit; missed attacks recharge faster.
- Shield Charge / Shield Slam: Shares two charges with a seven-second recharge. Brace and charge through enemies, with movement speed improving the dash. Aim downward to hop and Slam, stunning enemies and sending a shockwave forward.
- For Sparta!: Leap, choose your landing location, and dive for 1200% impact damage plus a 400% shockwave. Grant nearby allies Barrier and create a protective shield arena for eight seconds.
Includes a custom Spartan model, shield-forward survivor portrait and display stance, skill icons, animations, and gold attack effects. Full ability details are available in the Loadout tab.
Installation
Install SpartanMod with Thunderstore Mod Manager or r2modman, allow its dependencies to install, then launch using Start modded.
If upgrading from a manually installed testing build, remove or disable that previous Henry/Spartan package first. Do not load duplicate copies of HenryMod.dll or SpartanMod.dll.
For manual installation, install the dependencies listed in manifest.json and copy the included BepInEx folder into your Risk of Rain 2 installation, preserving the folder structure.
Multiplayer testing
Every player must install the same SpartanMod version. Matching mod profiles are recommended.
Test with each player hosting in turn. Please check remote-player animations and carried spears, attack effects and damage, ally Barrier from For Sparta!, and shield-arena collision and attack blocking. Multiplayer behavior has not yet been fully verified.
When reporting an issue, include the mod version, whether the Spartan player was the host or a joining player, what each player saw, and the relevant BepInEx log.
