Remove Scadutree Mechanics
🎯 Function description
This is a simple mod designed for "Elden's Circle", specifically removing the Holy Tree blessing mechanism in the "Shadow of the Golden Tree" DLC. Specifically:
✨ **Core Changes**:
- Completely remove the player buffs obtained by using Holy Tree Fragments and Noble Ashes
- Even if these buffs have been applied before, they will become invalid as soon as the mod is activated
- Rebalance the status of all enemies in the DLC to ensure that the game experience is still reasonable
⚖️ Balance adjustment
Enemy status has been carefully adjusted so that its strength is equivalent to the combat experience at the "proper" Holy Tree Blessing level. This means you can play through the entire DLC without collecting these items at all, while maintaining game balance.
If you're familiar with my other mod "Boss Arena", the balance adjustments here are exactly the same as that mod's sandbox mode.

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.
