This patch simply adds more items and item buffs and psynergy and in return buffs the game like crazy to refresh the game as a whole.
I have decided to ditch caledor's mod as it breaks the game by simply adding too many items apperently. either way, it is better without than to release an unplayable game, right?
On the flip side, there will be a ton of items and such for you to enjoy! This mod also features 4 legendary elemental swords. gaia blade, sol blade, arctic blade, and tempest blade.
Each one is buffed to be the same plus its own elemental effects. There will also be no story change whatsoever.

Golden Sun Legacy

Shop, Weapon, and Item Update
some shops have powerful items, good stuff, etc., u name it

The returning warriors of vale now return with the best and finest weapons from Golden Sun. yes, exclusive items.
most of them will be purchasable in some shops while other more rare items like the gaia blade is only around once much like
jenna's base set *cough*. any item that is not part of isaac's group upon reunion can be purchased.

Enemies
all bosses receive an hp and attack buff. they also reward much much more coins and exp. of course, defeating them is no easy task
earlier bosses get slight buffs
later bosses get more significant buffs
doom dragon gets insane buff so optional bosses and collecting all djinns and summon tablets are mandatory
(dont worry, you should have aurora field by now at lv 50 *cough*)
dullahan drop dullahan's katana (strongest weapon in the game)
deadbeard and the *kraken returns and spawns at sea randomly. beware!
in case your wondering about the diffuculty, enemies are supposed to be easy to fend off. the bosses will be extremely annoying but doable
*storm lizard, tornado lizard, and tempest lizard return to yampi desert. drops aura gloves 1/8 of the time
*felix clone added to aqua rock as a reference to the legend of zelda (even link says so in the apoji islands next to the giant water droplet)

Any ideas what Magnet and Arrow are used for?  Not sure if there's anything in the game that reacts to them, but who knows - maybe there is?

Also, are stat boosters infinite buy, or finite buy?

Salanewt

Nice work! I've been too busy to test hacks lately, but I'd like to test yours one day and so far the changelog looks pretty neat.
Oh yeah baby, £ me harder.

Fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak Adepts stronger.

Yoshi's Lighthouse is a hacking website in progress. Why not check it out if you like Yoshi or the Mario & Luigi games?

ty for the positive feed back. as for the stat boosting items, you can buy them indefinitly. however, it costs 10x its original value which is 5000. furthermore, since the game features extremely buffed bosses, your honestly better off getting e new weapon if able to. in the next update, more items/psynergy and most importantly more enemies wlll be added. good luck traveling the seas. deadbeard will randomly appear and is almost just as strong as aqua hydra but with hp buff!

GamingMaster

magnet and arrow are there for fun so the user can experience what was unused. might add more psynergy items ;)

That is OP as hell.  That's a super easy grind to basically max out stats.  It's not like money is hard to come by in this game, you know?

Plus, if you make it too expensive, then the items you find in the world basically break the economy.

Salanewt

I could see it working if it's only limited to late/end-game towns or if you have to grind for the resources/money to get them, but on the whole I can see issues with that too.

bosses have buffed exp and coin grant. starting from the first boss, the player gets 1xxx coins then the 2nd boss grants 2xxx coins etc. i am playing through the whole game to test stuff. btw is there a way to switch out items in chests and set djinns to party members so they join the party with whatever djinn?

Salanewt

There are but not with the editor; how good are you with a hex editor and basic assembly?

i have barely any knowledge of it. i can prob learn it along the way. do u mind helping? i currently need to replace the teleport lapis in the chest in mars lighthouse with a fire scarf and also set all djinn to isaac's party to eliminate the need for transfer

MaxiPower

Make someone learn Agaitos Rising Dragon move lol... Best move in the game. Eager to play through gs again sometime soon.

GamingMaster

i was actually thinking of that. there were 3 enemy elemental based moves. next update will add all three. one of them is already added and rising dragon is an unleash
