📋 About This Mod
BETTER ROLLING
This mod aims to improve rollin in DSR to make it slighlty more in line with later entries into the series. Its incredibly difficult to maintain a fast-roll in DS1 without the use of Havel's Ring ad the FAP Ring which I find limits build variety and creativity. This mod is for people who want to wear armor (either for defense or more importantly for fashion) but don't want to completely gimp their ability to dodge. This mod will make the game easier since you can wear more and still fast roll.
The use of the bloodborne dash in place of a fast roll still gives those who want to pursue a lighter build some advantage to doing so. The ninja flip ring is untouched for those who enjoy using it but it has little to no advantage over the dash at this time (other than looking fly).

Better Rolling reworks Dark Souls 3's rolling tiers by replacing the fast roll with a quick dash from Bloodborne, shifting mid-roll to fast roll, fat roll to mid-roll, and overencumbered to fat roll. This makes rolling less punishing overall. For players who want faster, more responsive dodging without changing other gameplay.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,181 endorsements and 29,120 downloads
- Makes rolling feel snappier and more aggressive, like Bloodborne
- Simple concept that directly addresses a common complaint about rolling weight
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020, so it may not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC
- Changes core movement mechanics, which could affect balance in PvP or speedruns
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter animations or dodge mechanics
For Dark Souls 3 players who find the standard rolling too sluggish and want a faster, more aggressive dodge. Also for Bloodborne fans who miss that quick dash. Skip if you prefer the original rolling feel or want a more comprehensive gameplay overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up your original game files before installing, as this mod replaces animation files.
- If you use other mods that alter character animations, load this one last to avoid conflicts.
- Test the new rolling in a low-risk area first to get used to the timing.
