Alternative balance for Reforged
🌟 **Provide more reasonable game balance adjustments for the reforged version of "Ring of Elden"**
---
🛡️ Optimization of blocking system
- **Blocking stamina consumption adjustment**: The blocking stamina consumption of all weapons is unified to 50 (the two-handed posture will also reduce the stamina consumption), and the shield is 60+
- **Physical Damage Resistance Balance**: Weapons and small/medium shields have reduced physical damage resistance when blocking
- **Deflection mechanism enhancement**: Non-perfect deflection can now absorb 30% of elemental damage (originally 10%)
💡 **Design Concept**: Taking part of the damage when the deflection fails is more reasonable than completely losing the stamina bar.
---
✨ Special equipment adjustment
**Dancer’s Lucky Charm**:
- Each deflection restores an additional 10 FP points + 0.5% of maximum FP
**Regeneration effect optimization**:
- The regeneration effects of the Blessed Dewdrop Talisman, Blessed Blue Dewdrop Talisman, Blessing and Magic Affinity effects now work outside of combat.
---
⚔️ Weapon balance adjustment
**Yue Yin**:
- Blocking no longer releases waves
- The R2 attack is changed to the same horizontal slash and horizontal magic wave as the sword.
**Lelana's Double Blades**:
- Adjustments to the first attack animation
- The animation speed of the third magic attack (R1) of Moonfire Stance has been increased
---
🎯 Game experience optimization
**Animation acceleration**:
- The animation speed of elixir drinking and self-buff casting is increased (such as Golden Tree Oath, Black Flame Blessing, Scholar Arms)
- The Golden Tree Oath now only increases attack power, but does not increase defense power.
**Status effect adjustment**:
- Toret no longer accumulates status abnormality effects
- Swamp direct damage still works
**Convenience improvements**:
- Removed animation for picking up materials

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
