Created using Maple Maniac's Perk Deck Maker.
This is the first mod that I've uploaded on this site, and I wanted to update this silly mod because I'm feeling for a Payday 2 mood nowadays. I've moved, removed, and re-described some Perk Deck pieces and descriptions to better reflect what actually is being granted by the True Iron Man Perk Deck. I'm still a novice at modding in general anyway. Please enjoy.
Note: this may or may not refund all of your Perk Points from all other Perk Decks if you disable this mod with Perk Points allocated into it. This mod shouldn't be the reason your game keeps you in Friends-only mode, but I might be wrong.
Update 6/21/2024
Download trueIronGiantMan.rar for the latest release of this Perk Deck.
Updated Perk Deck descriptions to better reflect what is actually being granted by each individual Card. Removed some attributes that were anti-synergistic. See below for what should be the full list of what you should expect from this Perk Deck.
||True Iron Man
Your Armor is your life.
This Perk Deck is overpowered by design, and combines a mish-mash of bonuses beneficial to making your Armor as maniacal as possible. Please enjoy the experience to the fullest extent.

Original Release 7/13/2022
||Behold, the True Iron Man Perk Deck. This Perk Deck combines many Armor-beneficial bonuses from almost all Perk Decks (excluding the Perk Decks that introduce an item in the Throwable slot). I originally wanted to create a Perk Deck that simply combines the effects of Anarchist and Maniac... but I then told myself, "Why stop there?" Hence, the product right here.
Since this is my first public mod, I have zero idea how to actually balance things. I've therefore chosen to have all Deck-exclusive cards require triple the Perk Points.
This Perk Deck obviously only functions in Solo Play or with Friends. It is also obviously OP in the majority of content.
