In my personal build, I use other seemingly useless skills in a similar way: "Ashes' Blessing," "Exploding Corpses," etc.
Could you upload it as a separate mod if it's not too difficult?

I know the feeling; I've done the same. Some of the new center perks are tied to this.
I'm new to the forum and I'm surprised by the large number of new maps and mods!
Waterfall_13, I understand that you have your own global modification that includes new perks. It probably weighs a lot. Is there a way to upload only the part of the modification that concerns the new perks on this forum, so that the file size is small?
