Fair enough
Imma go watch my heroes punch each other due to poor stress managment

You have correctly identified it is maximized by aggression. Min/max on this ability isn't always important though.

It's quite strong. It's a stun that does damage, more as you attack, and it has a degree of armor penetration. It rewards aggression & good party management / controlling enemies, and even when not maximized, provides a lot of bonus damage on armored targets that would otherwise be tough to kill.

It is literally two skills in one whose efficacy varies based on your playstyle. It's definitely fine, if not a bit strong.

I feel like lightning impale is pretty weak
Only having a single turn to use it at full strength forces an aggressive playstyle
It can be very useful with the stun but going for riposte and positioning skills is far more reliable since a single shuffle or stun will deny your charged attack.

I hope, in any possible way, for the addition of Smough

I love it! It's amazing. I'm adding it to the description.

Thank you so much. :D

Hey yall - I just uploaded an animation/sprite overhaul of our favourite lightning boy. Check it out here .

Hope that’s alright Caedwyn. It requires this mod, and was made with a lot of love.

Cheers

Hello author, there are significant problems with the current Chinese translations. For instance, the names and effects of the accessories are all in English. I'm not good at English and I'm very frustrated.

@mikusma Firstborn chosen is a set bonus, you need the other trinket to activate it.

Any chance to get BR port for this mod?

Still not good at using him effectively, but love him none the less. Love the work. Keep it up.

класс, ДС в ДнД - одобряемо

What the hell is "firstborn chosen" on the artefacts ?

Ok so i got the dragon slayer soul and it says at the bottom : First born chosen 10% DMG melee skills , 10 % Prot

But i see none of the effect when i equip it @Caedwyn

In the years since publishing DD mods, I've become a software developer. A very busy one at that! It's a good problem to have.

I'd love to return & overhaul everything with the practices & experience I've acquired, but the time investment on my part just isn't feasible right now, and the resources for good animations are quite specific on their own.

I'm finished with DD for the foreseeable future.

okay i know this is many years old but i was wondering if you had any plans to make a Smough mod? i really wanted to use them both but i cant find any Smough mods.

There is a Chinese language mod for this, but I don't know if it has been updated.

I really like this mod, please add Chinese translation,

thank you,a true knight

chinese plz O.o

Chinese plz
QAQ

Not for the Dark Souls classes, no. I have a huge compendium of these things, but I never got around to finishing them. They were going to come with light class tweaks or overhauls.

bro Do u add CM(Color of Madness) trinkets?

awesome! thanks!

Sure, have at it. Just credit myself for the class, AceroSteel for the art, and for Abysswalker, Slightly Startled Seal helped with the new idle/walk/combat animations.

proper credit would be given to you, of course :)

@Caedwyn, i recently received permission to create an addon for the Order of Sunlight mod, and i was wondering if i may use some of your mod assets in the addon? I plan to make a dark faction to rival the order of sunlight, and have wandering enemies depending on the faction of people you bring into a dungeon. with your permission, i would like to add your dragonslayer knight to the bands of sunlight faction enemies to be encountered when entering a dungeon with a team of abyss faction characters

I did. :D

I fixed the credit.

Not "he" but "she" lol, you're welcome i'm so glad that you liked the icons

2.5.1 Update:

New Camping Ability: Reach Advantage

Reach Advantage increases riposte damage.

Reworked Camping Ability: Lion Eye

Lion Eye has been changed from before. It now gives the Dragonslayer accuracy.

After reaching out to Bkkmims, he's been kind enough to share his art with the mod by default. This has inspired me to make some changes to the Dragonslayer.

2.5 Update:

Icon art for Sacred Oath has been updated. This is something I've wanted for do for a long time, but finally had a chance & motivation to do it.

Icon art for all trinkets. Thank you again, Bkkmims! They look so much better.

2.5.1 forecast: ASAP I'll have a new camping ability out.

Wow, that art is incredible. Liked, favorited, and subscribed! As long as it's just skins & images, we're fine. \o/

Hello Caed', i just posted a small palette and some custom trinkets sprites of your mod. Dragonslayer is one of my favorite modded classes ! Tell me if you're okay with me posting a derivative of your mod if it's not i can always remove it ^^

You are perhaps the first person I've seen to have complained about Dragonslayer being linear and not versatile. +1 for that reason alone.

a very "linear" "unversatile" class. fits very little party compositions. the theme and idea buffing a weaker stun attack with other attacks does function very well. i personally changed the ranged spear attack to work from rank 2 also. so in case there is no shuffle you would be able to attack all positions. melee + ranged attack from 2 is very normal and common for classes.
and yet still it feels weaker than grave robber for example. not sure how to further change to get on paar.

请问升级了什么

What changed?

You happen to have the old Bountiful Sunlight code still lying around? I got a version from Nexus and gonna write it into my gamefile later

Do you think you could try to make Marvelous Chester from the dark souls 1 dlc

Dragonslayer can make up one hell of a party! Using Princess' Guard on a healer, while a HWM and Antiquarian use their Duelist's Advance/Protect Me combo and casting Invigorating Vapors in between, makes up a party that are all riposting and hard as hell it hit!

WOW
谢谢！

One of my favourite modded classes, simple yet flashy and very effective at frontal offence and defense. Love the artwork and all the references - some of his barks are hilarious.

The one thing I'm not sure about are the quirks. My Dragonslayers seem to always come with 3 decent positive quirks right out of the stage coach and only 1 negative. Is that intended?

Did you have in your plans make him unique animation?

The three of you may have figured it out by now, but "Firstborn's Chosen" is a Trinket Set effect. Just equip 2 trinkets that have that text and the buff will turn green letting you know it's in effect. Same way that the Crimson Court trinkets work.

so like, does no one know what first borns chosen is? its buffs are looking mighty fine but there seems to be 0 indication what firstborns chosen is or how to get/ unlock it

I really loved the mod, but i just can't figure how to use the Firstborn's Chosen from the itens. Could you please explain to me?

What is the "Firstborns Chosen" in his items?
How can I activate it?

That's a cool idea.

Just a thought, maybe add the Crystal Chime to make the Dragonslayer's lightning spear stronger stronger (+50% and charged by other attacks like the other ability does maybe). I noticed there is nothing at the CoM shop for the class and thought that chime would fit perfectly and could be strong.

This is amazing :D

Great mod, incredible art, especially the virtuous sprite. One question tough, ¿what does the "firstborne chosen" from the dragonslayer soul do? do you need a quirk? being virtuous? having another specific trinket?
