Added the Sword of Courage as a new weapon, including Dark Souls 3's move set and Lion Stance War Ash

Valorheart

✨ **Now updated to support DLC** - Last tested on regulatory version 1.16

🗡️Weapon introduction

The **Sword of Courage** in "Dark Souls 3" has been completely transplanted into "Elden's Circle"! This unique sword-and-shield combination weapon retains all the features of the original:

  • 🛡️ Automatically block incoming attacks when specific attacks occur
  • ⚔️ Complete DS3 action set
  • 🦁 Exclusive war gray: lion posture

🛒 How to get it

Go to the **Twin Old Women** in the Round Table Hall, select the "Special Weapon Shop" option, and spend **4000 runes** to purchase it (golden iron shield icon).

🦁 War Gray: Lion Stance

  • **Press and hold the battle gray key** to enter combat stance
  • **R1** thrust forward
  • **R2** Shield slam, greatly destroying the stability of the enemy's defense
⚠️ Despite our best efforts, we were unable to successfully port the lion head special effects from DS3

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.
