Reduce Ability Cooldowns and Tune Trim Balance as an Admin
Every special sword skill has a cooldown. Players can shorten their cooldowns with an item, and admins can rebalance every ability for the whole world.
For Players: Carry a
Cooldown Dial
1. Get a Cooldown Dial.
2. Keep it anywhere in your inventory. You don't need to hold it or equip it.
3. As long as the dial stays in your inventory, your ability cooldowns are reduced.
4. Don't store it in a chest or drop it, because the reduction only applies while you carry it.
On a PvP server, keep in mind that dying could cost you the dial along with the rest of your inventory.
For Admins: Adjust Ability Values
1. Open chat and type /trimsadmin config.
2. The admin config menu opens. It has slider controls for the ability settings.
3. Adjust the values to suit your server:
- Damage multipliers: make trim attacks hit harder or softer.
- Ability duration: control how long effects last.
- Other ability values: fine-tune individual trims.
4. Close the menu and test a sword in-game to check how the changes feel.
Balancing Tips
- Make small changes, then test them with a few players before changing more.
- If one trim is dominating fights, lower its damage or raise its cooldown rather than removing it.
- After you rebalance, tell players to check
/trims infoso they know how their abilities work now.
