Incendiary Demise Nerf

Description
Greatly reduces the power of the Incendiary Demise tavern drink by replacing the +40 magical damage with +75% damage
Enchanted Slammer moved from common to uncommon

This mod is intended to be used with Bauble Shop mod or with Clever Merge Mod mod, either of which give you means to earn extra magical damage to your primary attack, but one point at a time instead of all at once. Those mods are balanced around the assumption that incendiary demise either does not exist or is not used.

Why? In my opinion, Incendiary Demise is really broken. Not only is +40 a huge bonus, but it’s also given to you all at once. In my opinion, the game changes too abruptly the moment you get this drink, and that seems to break progression. I like the idea of being able to increase attack damage, but I’d rather it happen more gradually.

Why make a mod though? Can’t I just not use incendiary demise? Well, sure. And really, that’s what I actually do when I play. It just feels messy to leave that loose end. And also, for some people, if you give them a feature, they will use it. Even if it breaks their game when they do.

Obviously, this mod will conflict with other drink mods. So, if you want to install a different drink mod, then just don’t install this one, and just avoid using incendiary demise to keep the game balance the same.
