📋 About This Mod

DS2 SotFS vanilla only! (I dont know if it work for DSII version)

Do you think that Dark Souls II is the worst souls for the gameplay or in any case that would require many improvements?

This mod deals with this

What mod changes:

-Roll iframes and distance: More iframes with lower Adaptability and Attunement.

If you have Adaptability and Attunement at level 9, you can have 13 Iframes.

Roll distance vanilla has value 5. 0 and i put 6. 0 (20% more) to do more distance.

Thanks to "Better Rolling - SOTFS mod" that inspired me.

-Stagger animation: speeded up by 4 times. So fights is more fluid and avoiding being killed by the masses is easier

-Weapons durability: Increased twice, also for the rings

-"Fix Firgit Outskirt mod" included (not mine): no more infinite Frozen Reindeers

-Stamina consumption for movements and attacks: Reduced stamina usage for movements and halved for attacks. (Inspired by "DS2 elden stamina mod")

-Item use speed: Estus and items speed usage is increased by x4

-Anim cancel: A very important thing for melee combat, anim cancel speed of weapons is increased by x4.

In this way you can dodge and move long before, after making an attack

-Merchant Hag Melentia and Chloanne sell some infinite and intersting things like upgrade materials, human effigy, bonfire ascetic, flame butterlfy, old radiant lifegem and other

-Estus: Now minimum is 4 and maximun is 15

-Enemy damage: You can choose between "original damage" and "50% damage reduction"

-Alternative version: 16 Iframes at level 9 of ADP and ATN and 160 stamina points at level 40 of stamina (Only for real journalists!)

-Other alternative options in Downlaod section!

Installation:

-Copy all content of "1-Core" (EZMODE, dinput8.dll, modengine.ini) in "Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin\Game\"

-Choose between "original damage" and "50% damage reduction" and copy "EnemyParam.param" inside "Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin\Game\EZMODE\Param\"

-Choose from optional files if you want

Optional files:

-Modern Roll Alternative version: 16 iframes at level 9 of ADP and ATN and 160 stamina at level 40 of stamina

-Speed Item Alternative: Choose Item speed between x2 or x4 (deafult for mod)

-Spell Speed Alternative: Choose between original (deafult) or x2 cast speed

-Default Roll: This is to have default roll with 5. 0 speed (and not 6. 0 like in mod)

-And Others...

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid community backing with 227 endorsements and over 13k downloads
  • Directly addresses movement feel, a core part of combat that many mods ignore
  • Lightweight and focused—no bloat, just roll and stamina tweaks

⚠️ Cons

  • Vague description leaves you guessing exactly what changed until you test it
  • Last updated in April 2024, so it might not be compatible with the latest game patches
  • Potential conflicts with other gameplay overhauls that touch stamina or movement
🎯 Is This For You?
For players who find the base roll and stamina system clunky and want a snappier, more action-oriented feel. If you're into combat overhauls or just want movement to feel less dated, this is worth a shot. Skip if you're happy with vanilla movement or prefer minimal gameplay changes.
