Icefrayed Blade

✨ Module introduction

Ice-Cracking Blade - A reinterpretation of the soul-breaking sword Taito from "Dark Souls 3" 💫

This mod can be equipped on **all** tachi through the battle gray menu.

⚔️ Combat Features

**Light attack:** Release a series of rapid slashes, the sword is as bright as lightning ⚡

**Heavy Attack:** Tears the air to create a devastating cross slash 💥

**Release charge:** Dodge backwards, leaving ice mist in place ❄️

🎮 Instructions for use

**IMPORTANT NOTE** 📝

  • The parts folder is required for the correct behavior of the scabbard during light attacks
  • I have made Iai Slash available on all tachi via the battle gray menu
  • However, Corpse Mountain Blood Sea and Dragon Scale Sword do not have functional scabbards, and the scabbards will not be used during light attacks.

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.
