This patch allows the Offering to strike between 1 and 4 hits. Because of the code structure, when paired to the Genji Glove, you will always make 2, 4, 6 or 8 strikes.
You can change the odds of each number of strikes for more balance if you want. Right now you got 75% of making 2 strike, 50% of making 3 and 25% of making 4.
Because of customization and bank $C2 being filled with bugfixes, the archive consist of two ASM files, one being the current bank ($C2) implementation and the other one the "external" bank implementation (by default $EE). Choose the implementation that you prefer.
The ASM file should be applied to the ROM with
http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/269/. Refer to the readme for more details.

Description
-----------
This patch allows the Offering to strike between 1 and 4 hits. Because of the code
structure, when paired to the Genji Glove, you will always make 2, 4, 6 or 8 strikes.
You can change the percentages (CMP values in the code) for more balance if you want.
Right now you got 75% of making 2 strike, 50% of making 3 and 25% of making 4.
Example of custom odds (12.5%, 50%, 12.5% and 25%). Line 21 to 25 in ASM file:
CMP #$20 ;12.5% will have branched at that point (32/256 = 12.5%)
BCC exit
CMP #$A0 ;62.5% will have branched at that point (0xA0 - 0x20 = 0x80 = 128/256 = 50%)
BCC twoExtra
CMP #$C0 ;75% will have branched at that point (0xC0 - 0xA0 = 0x20 = 32/256 = 12.5%)
I also included an optional tweak that would disable half-damage from offering. This is an
an attempt to make full damage compensate for the randomness of number of hits. I also included the code
to re-enable half damage. See the end of the ASM file for details.
