Adding healing effects to holy water fills the "fairness" gap

sacred healing holy water

**"Okay, Red Hook, I'll do it myself!"**

finally! This mod adds a healing effect to **Holy Water** in Darkest Dungeon instead of just the original resistance increase. 🎉

✨ Main functions

  • **Gives holy water healing ability**: Now using holy water can not only increase resistance, but also restore health.
  • **Multi-version selection**: Provides **5-point, 10-point, and 15-point** versions with three different treatment strengths to meet all your needs for game balance.
  • **NEW ICON**: Contains an icon that looks a little "holy"!

⚙️ Technical details

The module modifies the following files:

  • Holy water description in `miscellaneous.string_table.xml`.

**If the description is not displayed**: Please run the `localization.bat` file in the `dir/localization` directory.

💡 Usage suggestions

  • Choose the version that suits your team's difficulty and healing needs.
  • This change changes Holy Water from a simple gain item to a life-saving straw at critical moments, greatly improving its strategic value.

*Author's Note: This mod may not be fully tested...but it should work! 😅 I wanted to add a similar effect to dog food, but I couldn't find the relevant class lock, so I'll use this first! *

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
