Cursed Challenge Items

✨ **A series of cursed items have been added to "Elden's Circle" to bring a new experience to your challenging gameplay! **

🌟Module introduction

This mod adds various cursed items that give you debuffs (and some buffs) when stored in your inventory. These curses are specially designed for challenging gameplay, allowing you to experience a more exciting game process!

🎯 How to get the curse

After installing the mod, you will automatically get a reusable tool called "Challenge Elixir" (should be near the lantern).饮用这个灵药会同时给你所有挑战诅咒,所以**强烈建议在赐福点附近使用**,这样你可以将不需要的诅咒存入宝箱(诅咒物品位于'关键物品'栏位)。

🔧 Merger instructions

Since this mod only adds new items and effects, merging should be relatively simple (especially if the only conflict is the regulation.bin file, which can be handled using DS Map Studio).

💡 **Tip**: If you are satisfied with the item icon and do not need the item name and description, there is usually no need to merge the item.msgbnd.dcx file.

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.
