Boss and Monster Skills

Working Boss & Critter Skills

By amanuet

If it isn’t listed it, it either does absolutely nothing, has only audio/visual affects, or crashes the game.

To make these work, you must do the following:

1. Create a small charm with the skill of choice. Please keep in mind, it must be non-class skill.
2. Click the “Extras” tab, then click “Character Hex”.
3. Scroll down till you see “64 Skills ID’s”. Click it.
4. In the hex string, type the numbers that coincide with the skill (they are all provided here). Make sure they are typed in the exact order you see here.
5. Then, click either “Skill ID Left Mouse” or “Skill ID Right Mouse”. It’s up to you as to which mouse button you want the skill to be on.
6. Repeat step 4.
7. Click “Close”
8. Save character as usual.

Note: Once you are in the game, you cannot select a different skill and go back to the monster skill.

OK, here they are:
