Self-PRing so I can work on this a bit more. A small bundle of some stuff I'd been meaning to implement, specific to the DDA version.

  • At long last, DDA can have a working restored ritual blade again. It works via the recent-ish expansions to ter-transform being able to affect fields and traps, letting it destroy fatigue as intended. For portals, since I'm not sure if it can correctly be made to trigger recharge dependent on how many portals it converts, it instead converts the portal into a stabilized form that can be freely disarmed for 1 crystallized essence.
  • Added an effect allowing for the restored ritual blade to protect its wielder from portal storms, so long as you're either a Paragon of The Veil or a member of the Keepers. The way it works basically forces the portal storm to trigger early, but also forces it to end far sooner than normal and then negates any occurrence of portal storms having gotten worse. I'd make it block it outright but it has to act like this to correctly negate the way that early portal storms queue up regular ones for later.
  • Added death drop overrides to relevant new nether and portal storm monsters.
  • Todo: add mod_tileset entry for crystallized portal.
  • Todo: Any readme or NPC dialogue changes that still refer to the feature being fucklized in the DDA version.
  • Todo: Remove free spawns of crystallized essence in the anomalies the hermit sends you towards.
  • Todo: Maybe also see if any arcanist professions can/should be added to DDA-specific scenarios.
  • Todo: Further testing and tweaking just to make sure nothing breaks or acts weird.

I've been meaning to do this for a while but only recently got time and
energy to work on this, ever since DDA finally added the stuff utilized
in #253 I can also add
the intended reward for completing Nicholas' mission chain.

Combining all the research from the missions both Sofia and Nicholas
send you after will allow Nicholas to make a device that draws on the
energy from portals, much like the restored ritual blade. Its effect
when activated is a powerful AoE healing spell affecting the user and
any allies in the radius, as well as fixing terrain like Consecrate and
having a similiar regrowth effect to the Sacrificial Regrowth spell I
helped Foulman write for
CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA#37254.
