Dark Souls III - Cinders v.2.15 - Game mod - Download

Cinders is a mod for Dark Souls III, created by Xylozi.

Description (in author’s own words):

A gameplay mod for Dark Souls 3. Aims to re-balance the game to allow the player more choice in how they play. This is done with changes to weapons, spells, loot, enemies, etc.

The mod aims to equalize the viability of gameplay styles whilst also increasing the base difficulty of Dark Souls 3.

WARNING!!!

Only use this mod whilst offline. Editing the Data0.bdt will flag your save data as invalid, leading to a soft ban.
