📋 About This Mod

I love playing DRK and recently found out that you can swap old, skill animations for current skills. I have overhauled animations and vfx to my liking and figured others might like it too.

The mod changes some of the skills animations and effects that I felt were quite lacking in their original form. With the revelation that I could change animations as well, I've changed some animations with the old skill animations that I felt were cooler. I have also made revisions to the sound effects for skills that I felt lacked impact. This is a list of skills that were changed:

Hard Slash - HardDeliriumSlash

Syphon Strike - SyphonScourge

SoulEater (vfx)

Delirium - DarkDelirium

Bloodspiller (vfx)

Unleash (vfx)

Quietus (sound effect)

Edge of Shadow (vfx)

Flood of Shadow - FloodofShadowbringer

Shadowbringer - ShadowPassenger

Dark Mind - DarkShadowskin

Abyssal Drain (vfx)

Salted Earth (vfx)

Carve and Spit (vfx)

Any skills with a name change has a change of animations as well.

Things to note:

Maulclaw has mentioned that the animation swaps may not work 100% on lalafells, male roegadyn, and hrothgar. I have not tested the mod on these races so this may still be the case.

If you would like a more customizable old actions for DRK consider Maulclaw's mod: Classic Dark Knight Actions Restored
