There are a variety of Elden Ring mods. Actually, in style PC recreation modding vacation spot Nexus Mods at the moment hosts 527 or so. However amid all of the out there ReShades, fairly face settings, and weapon reskins, one of the crucial in style mods for FromSoftware’s newest hit is a simple mode, created by modder odashikonbu, that offers your Tarnished the muscle to beat anybody.
Odashikonbu’s “Straightforward Mode For Elden Ring” mod has been downloaded virtually 50,000 occasions since its March 12 debut, making it the Nexus’ fifth hottest Elden Ring mod on the time of writing. There are three variations: a “Harm Edit Solely,” a “Harm Tweak + 10x Rune,” and odashikonbu’s “Private Edit.” All three do a variety of the identical issues, like decreasing the harm you obtain by 50%, growing your assault harm by 25%, and doubling each your hit field radius and the quantity of well being you get better from flasks. These are engaging changes that can make even the hardest of enemies appear to be chumps.
Issues get fascinating once you dive into odashikonbu’s “Private Edit” model, which makes Elden Ring a complete cakewalk. Not solely does it defang foes and jack up your Tarnished, it additionally disables mechanics like FP prices for spells and weight limits for tools, whereas lowering the variety of supplies wanted to strengthen weapons to 1. There are another cool issues to level out right here and there, such because the mod’s buffs to weapon scaling, however suffice to say that not even the newly rebuffed Starscourge Radahn may cease you if you happen to used this.
For folk in search of a extra stress-free keep within the Lands Between, the one actual bummer—or boon, relying on the way you have a look at it—is that the mod will solely work once you’re taking part in offline. That’s as a result of you may solely disable the sport’s anti-cheat whereas taking part in offline, and also you’re at the moment required to take action to make use of mods. Odashikonbu wrote within the description that their mod was designed in order that “everybody [could] get pleasure from Elden Ring, [not] for dishonest in on-line mode.”
Kotaku has reached out to odashikonbu for remark.
What I discover entertaining about this mod isn’t simply that it overpowers your Tarnished in relation to all the things else, although certain, that’s a part of it. However I like how odashikonbu’s mod is the full reverse of Silentverge02’s “Put together To Die” mod, which makes Elden Ring approach tougher. The Elden Ring group actually exhibits that it takes every type.
