I at all times figured I would shoot for a pure sorcery construct within the unlikely occasion I discovered a spare 140 hours to play Elden Ring once more, given my run of any FromSoft recreation at all times devolves into paddling bosses with the largest sword I can discover. I might have to alter these (extremely theoretical) plans, nonetheless, as some three-finger-frenzied modding wizard has added a whole Witcher moveset into Miyazaki’s magnum opus.
Created by modder therealsqueam, the merely titled Witcher—Moveset Mod enables you to get your Geralt on in The Lands Between by including a full combating model impressed by Andrzej Sapkowski’s monster hunters into the sport. It additionally provides the flexibility to forged indicators, and even incorporates Geralt-style fisticuffs simply in case you are caught with out your weapon drawn.
Mainly, the mod replaces Milady and Leda’s swords with blades of metal and silver, sometimes wielded by Witchers, each of which may be bought from Service provider Kalé in Limgrave. The metal sword naturally scales with dexterity, whereas the silver sword dishes out huge holy harm, making it very best for coping with undead creatures.

Each swords use the identical moveset, which borrows closely from the acrobatic fight methods seen in The Witcher 3. Impressed by Geralt’s whirl, gentle assaults can proceed repeating till stamina drains, whereas it’s also possible to comply with up these nimble prospers with a leaping heavy assault. The moveset additionally consists of particular methods for operating assaults, roll and backstep follow-ups, and leaping strikes.
As for the indicators, the mod helps all 5 Witcher incantations, infusing them with a formidable stage of depth. The concussive Aard signal, for instance, can knock again particular person enemies with its gentle assault, or produce a harmful 360 shockwave with its heavy counterpart. Igni, in the meantime, lets your character shoot a continuing stream of fireside from their hand, buff your weapon with flame, or unleash an infernal tsunami through the heavy assault.
At a look, it looks as if a reasonably highly effective construct, although therealsqueam has made some try to stability it in opposition to Elden Ring’s problem. The Axii signal, for instance, enables you to briefly flip enemies to your aspect, however you need to get near an opponent to make use of it, and it takes a number of seconds to forged, leaving you susceptible to assault. The protect signal Quen, in the meantime, solely lasts for 10 seconds per forged, throughout which period it can rebuff gentle assaults fully, however solely cut back harm from heavy strikes.
Apparently, the mod requires Elden Ring’s growth Shadow of the Erdtree to operate, so be sure you’ve acquired that put in earlier than you obtain it. However should you’ve exhausted the choice timber of CD Projekt’s trilogy, Witchering via The Lands Between ought to assist tide you over till The Witcher 4 arrives, every time that seems to be.
