About this mod Machine translation
Adds a mod for level 85 starting classes, unlocks SotE content from the start, and removes the original world
SotE Classes
🎮 **Start your journey to the Ring of Elden directly from the DLC! **
✨ Core Features
This mod completely changes the gaming experience, giving you direct access to the **Shadow of the Erdtree** DLC content from the start! Say goodbye to the long process of the original game and immediately plunge into the adventure of Shadowland.
🗺️ World Transformation
In **Stranded Cemetery**, the original door to the outside world is now replaced by **Mikayla's Cocoon**, transporting you directly to the Shadowlands!
Next to the cocoon, you'll find a few must-have key items:
- 🌱 All seeds and teardrops
- 🛠️ Making bag
- 📯 Soul Summoning Whistle
At the same time, you can also go to the Round Table Hall, where all the upgrade materials Bell Beads have been unlocked, and there is an unlimited supply of arrows!
🎯 New starting profession
In order to prevent you from dying immediately in the DLC, all professions start at the appropriate level (level 85), while leaving enough upgrade space to optimize equipment attribute distribution:
**Occupation List:**
- 🩸 **Bloody Hound** (Sensor/Premium)
- ⚔️ **Militia** (Agility)
- 💪 **Wasteland Warrior** (Strength)
- 🗡️ **Bandit** (Premium)
- 🔮 **Spell Swordsman** (Intelligence)
- 🔥 **Fire Monk** (Faith)
- 💀 **Lich** (Intelligence/Faith)
- ✝️ **Paladin** (Faith/Premium)
- 🛡️ **Commander** (Tank)
- 🐒 **Poor Man** (starts with Dane's Footwork)
🎁 Additional changes
In addition to the career system, this mod also changes the starting souvenir selection.
🎯 Design Concept
This mod is designed to provide a **semi-challenging experience** that won't give you all the vanilla gear from the start, forcing you to utilize unique weapons and talismans. This way you won't overlook the treasures of Shadowlands just because you already have better vanilla gear!
At the same time, it's still an enjoyable experience for the average player who doesn't want to start at level 1 in an area that scales like endgame content and has to go around collecting consumable runes.
⚠️ Notes
- This mod **does not** redistribute attribute points
- **NOT INCLUDED** Obtain the crafting book from the original version
🔧 Technical details
Technically speaking, this mod only modifies the language files, parameters, and only changes one area of the game - the Stranded Graveyard. Therefore, it should be able to be easily combined with other mods that modify or edit SotE maps.

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.
