Soul Grinding and Material Farming No More
What this mod does:
S&M Farming No More is a mod designed to make your playthrough of Dark Souls less tedious by virtually removing (or at least greatly reducing) the grinding/farming aspect of it. Specifically:
- All enemies give x10 times the Souls they gave in NG (including bosses).
- All enemies give x50 times the Souls they gave in NG+ (including bosses). In 'vanilla' mode, this was x2, x4 or x5, depending on the area.
- Item / Loot drop rate and amount has increased substantially for upgrade materials (titanite), humanities, mosses, dragon scales and transient curses. For example, rats had 2% drop rate for humanities. Now they have 70%, and they may drop 3, 5, or even 8 humanities.
- Loot on chests, containers, corpses, crystal lizards and sub-bosses has also increased. Basically, almost all enemies which had a 100% chance of dropping loot will now drop that loot in larger quantities.
- Amount of souls gained by absorbing soul items (i.e. Soul of a Proud Knight) increased x10.
What this mod DOESN'T do:
- It does not buff your character or their items in any way.
- It does not nerf enemy dmg or tampers with their scripts.
- It does not decrease the amount of Souls you need to level up or buy items.
- It does not change the type of loot a container has or an enemy drops.
This mod was designed with one purpose in mind: To greatly reduce the times you may need to go back to an area and kill its inhabitants over and over and over and over again until you got the ten humanities you wanted, or the titanite necessary to upgrade your weapon or armor. Basically tedious mechanics which only serve the purpose to make you waste time on the game, or 'force' you go to an area without being as prepared or well-equipped as you would like to be, because you can't stand farming an area thirty times.
INSTALLATION:
Simply drag the param folder of my mod inside your Dark Souls folder on Steam. Before doing so, however, make a backup of your existing param folder (inside your Dark Souls Remastered folder) in case you want to uninstall. Note: if your PC doesn't warn you about files about to be overwritten, you're doing something wrong.
TO UNINSTALL THE MOD:
Delete the param folder and replace it with the param folder I told you to make a backup of.
CAUTION: I have not tested this mod online, and it's almost assured that the game will either force you to play offline, or lock your Dark Souls account if you attempt to play online with this mod installed. However, if you uninstall it, you will 99.99% be ok with playing online again since everything in your playthrough and your character's stats and items will be 100% compatible with the vanilla version's.
