Description

On 0.3.7 and 0.4 I used to balance vocations by using "wandDamage="1.0" magDamage="1.2" magHealingDamage="1.0" defense="1.6" magDefense="1.6"" on vocations.xml, is there something like this I can use or do on 1.3? It's the easiest way to buff all spells/attacks/defense at once and make the vocations balanced.

Is it possible to add? Thanks.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the existing vocations.xml and the C++ source code that loads and parses vocations to identify where to add new attributes for wandDamage, magDamage, magHealingDamage, defense, and magDefense. Then implement the parsing and application of these multipliers to the corresponding combat calculations.
