📋 About This Mod

"Description"

I like vanilla Combat Arts, but they are not as spectacular and they do not always feel the impact, so I decided to change them. In general, I changed their VFX, animations, some changed the sound and shaking of the camera to make them look more beautiful and they felt the impact.

This is my first mod that replaces animations, I like the result I got and I will play with this mod myself, I hope you like it as well as me

This mod changes:

- VFX of Combat Arts, Prosthetic Tools, finishing and movement:

1. When running, jumping, using a hook, dodging, the effect of Fire Feathers of a Fog Crow and, in a rare case, Shadow Blink appears

2. When finishing on the sword, a small spark appears, for aesthetics

3. Combat arts, Prosthetic Tools now change visually under different Buffs

- SFX of Combat arts, Prosthetic Tools, also fixed the sound of Roberto's Miniboss finishing

- Adds Buffs to some Prosthetic Tools and "Yashariku's Sugar":

1. Now, after an additional blow with the help of "Kusabimaru", after using a fire spear, a fire Buff will be superimposed on the weapon

2. During the second series of attacks, "Sabimaru" puts a Poisonous Buff on the sword

3. After using "Yashariku's Sugar", a Bloody Buff is applied to "Kusabimaru"

- Changes Animations to some Combat Arts

- Changes the combination of 5 normal strikes

- Now, after using the Combat Art, the combination of 5 strikes does not start over, but continues with the most appropriate strike

- Adds Hyper Armor to Combat Arts and prosthetic tools

- Changed the shaking of the camera when hitting and added the camera distance when hitting

- Slightly changed the damage of the "Ashina Cross" and the second blow is not blocked by the enemy

- Now when using "Sakura Dance" in the air, "Sakura Falls"

- Now you can download separately repainting the interface in a more beautiful in my opinion

- "Nightjar Slash" now has three strikes (Forward + Strike, Backward + Strike and just Strike), also Backward + Strike is now an evasion in which you do not receive damage

- Combat arts "Cross Ashina", "One Mind" and "Dragon Flash" now have block windows

This mod also changes the dodge and adds the effects of the fog raven feather, which I took from the mod "The Great Shinobi Dodge - Shadow Steps" from the modder "matalayu", thanks to him for the permission, he also answered my questions about his fashion and we had a nice chat, thanks to him for everything, more of such nice people
