About this mod Machine translation

Allows spell casting with the following weapons and hopefully makes them practical:

-Kalia Knight Sword (Magic)

  • Michelan Knight Sword (Prayer)
  • Razri Pyroxene Sword (R1 key to cast magic)
  • Wand of Omniscient (Magic and Prayer)
  • Golden Seal of the Law (Magic and Prayer)

✨ **Let the weapon become a spell-casting medium, breaking traditional limitations! **

The Magic Sword of Kallia is great, but falls short in the damage department, and it's a shame it's the only weapon like this, although some weapon descriptions might lead you to believe there are more. This mod changes that.

⚙️ Installation instructions

Installation is easiest using Mod Engine 2. After the setup is complete, copy the *WeaponCatalysts* folder to the */mod/* directory and modify the *config_eldenring.toml* file to include the following lines within curly braces. If loading other mods, make sure each line is followed by a comma, and note that for mods that modify the same file, only the topmost mod will work as expected.

```toml

mods = [

{ enabled = true, name = "WeaponCatalysts", path = "mod\\WeaponCatalysts" },

]

```

🔧 Technical details

**Modification content:**

  • EquipParamWeapon
  • SpEffectParam
  • (SwordArtsParam)
  • Player Havok script
  • Weapon model (virtual polygons added)
  • Item description

This mod identifies weapon catalysts by checking for unique combinations of special move classes and/or war ashes. Works well for Eclipsed weapons, but War Ash has some limitations as the game only updates selected spells under certain circumstances.

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.
