!ATTENTION!: it is recommended to start a new playthrough while using this mod
Features:
- There's a new roll for every type, similar to modern Souls games. Fast roll is now as fast as the ninja flip and the ninja flip is also faster (by 2 frames). Fat Roll is as fast as the old mid roll while retaining the same animation and the new mid roll is the regular fast roll.
-Upgrade Paths have been standardized, they now all use normal titanite. Colored titanite has been effectively removed from the game. (Icons and descriptions have been changed to normal titanite to prevent from showing in the loading screen)
-Upgraded bows and crossbows speed (both by 5 frames)
- All Magic, Enchanted, Occult and Divine weapons have been buffed to deal as much damage as their normal counterparts
-Crystal Weapons can be repaired.
- All weapons can be buffed, regardless of their upgrade path
- DLC Bosses have generally worse lightning, fire and magic resistances than the original. The values have been changed to be in line with the base game's bosses and according to the lore. Artorias, Sanctuary Guardian and Manus are especially weak to fire, Kalameet to lightning (but also resistant to physical and fire)
- Various bosses have had some their resistance values decreased (For example Ornstein who had an absurdly high lightning resistance)
-The following weapons have been buffed:
Damage-Mail Breaker
Weight-Smough's Hammer
Damage-Greatsword of Artorias (Cursed)
Damage-Greatsword of Artorias
Damage-Stone Greataxe
Damage-Giant's Halberd

- The Following Items/Spells can now be used without being part of any specific covenant: Sunlight Spear, Bountiful Sunlight, Soothing Sunlight, Red Eye orb, Darkmoon Blade
-Added a semi-functioning omni-directional roll: it works by unlocking every time you roll while locked.
-Reworked vendor prices, the changes are too many to list but some notable ones are the addition of the élite cleric set to Patches' shop, Titanite Chunks to Gough's, and multiplayer covenant items to Domnhall of Zena's. I also decided to lower the price of titanite shards across all shops from 800 souls to 500 souls, that way you won't have to farm in the early game to obtain a +5 weapon before the Bell Gargoyles
-Repositioned enemies
Removed all Bounding Demons in Izalith and replaced some of them with Capra Demons
Removed most skeletons from the room where you get the divine ember in the catacombs
Removed three skeleton beasts from the tomb of giants

Repositioned one of the ghosts in the New Londo
Removed and repositioned some of the taurus demons in Izalith, under Ceaseless Discharge

-Fire weapons now scale on Intelligence and Faith
-Pyromancies (except chaos pyromancies) have a an Intelligence and Faith requirement mirroring their DS3 counterparts
-Increased the drop chance of unique items or otherwise unobtainable (except from vendor) items based on how many enemies of that type there are in the game and in farming spots (3%, 4%, 5%, 10%) (e.g. balder side sword, stone greatsword, Hollow Thief Set, Ghost Blade)
-Darkwraith Knights now drop their Darksword (5%)
-100% drop rate of Blooming purple moss clump from blowdart snipers
-Greatly increased stamina and poise damage of all greatshields
-You can now cancel gestures
-All Spells now have a stamina cost based on how powerful the spell is and whether it's typically used in combat or not (e.g. Soul arrow costs 35 stamina, Power Within costs 50 stamina, Chaos Storm costs 50 stamina) Stamina costs are generally, roughly based on DS3
-Upgrade Toxic and Poison damage from ALL player sources (e.g. weapons, arrows, spells) by 6 points per second
-Changed Toxic, Poison and Bleed Resistances for bosses that were previously immune to them in a way that logically made sense (for example Nito is still immune to bleed and the Iron Golem is immune to all status effects, Seath isn't immune to anything anymore)
-Further drop rate adjustments for unique items previously not included in v2.0 (Berenike Knight Steel Armor, Dark Hand)
-Orange Charred Ring isn't dropped by centipede demon anymore and it is instead located on a corpse where you first see it in demons ruins (replaces a soul item) It can now be freely used during the bossfight.

Magic Shield's and Strong Magic Shield's durations have been increased from 15 seconds to 90 seconds
-Increased the damage of the fire breath attack from the Dragon Head Stone. Now it does 325/375/425/500 per hit, based on rank

Hawk Ring gives Increased defence. Changed its description (english only) to reflect these changes
Darkmoon Blade Covenant ring now greatly increases magic damage at the cost of all types of defence. Changed its description (english only) to reflect these changes

Object to the right of one of the giant coffins that you slide over in the Tomb of Giants
