Replaced the Great Curved Sword action set and two-hand idle/move animations with Kaiden Warrior animations

Kaiden Sellsword Moveset

🎮 **Brings a new combat experience to "Elden Ring"! **

✨ Module Features

For the first time, the animation has been repurposed for Elden's Ring, bringing the unique fighting style of the Kaiden warriors!

🔄 Replace content

Nearly all attacks maintain the same timing, speed, and attack behavior as the original scimitar moves, and the forward animation also has the same canter speed as the original.

**Replaced animations include:**

  • Hands idle/moving actions
  • Two-hand blocking/defense animation
  • Two-handed light attack with the curved sword
  • Heavy attack with two hands of the curved sword
  • Two-handed dash attack with the curved sword
  • Two-handed retreat attack with the curved sword
  • Savage Roar/War Cry animation
  • Savage Roar Savage Combo Heavy Attack

🆕 New changes

**New combat mechanism:**

  • The 4th light attack becomes 2 combo attacks
  • The first charged heavy attack will quickly raise the sword to block the incoming attack, and then counterattack with a heavy slash.
  • The first non-charged heavy attack is a quick back fist strike (it does not cause damage but can quickly interrupt the enemy, and can be followed by light attack combos)
  • The retreat attack is a quick shoulder collision (does no damage but can interrupt the enemy, followed by an upward slash)

🎯 Technical details

**Animation files used:**

  • a12
  • a35
  • a40
  • a740
  • a741

💫 **Experience the fierce fighting style of Kaiden Warrior and inject new vitality into your curved sword battles! **

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.
