What are the best Wuchang Fallen Feathers mods? If you're looking to enhance your Madness-stricken experience, you've come to the right place. Setting aside the glaring performance issues, there are some gameplay mods that Wuchang Fallen Feathers could heavily benefit from. That's where the thriving modding community comes into play, giving players exactly what they're after.
As with most soulslike games, Wuchang Fallen Feathers can be incredibly punishing if you make the slightest mistake. Fortunately, there are plenty of Wuchang mods out there that give you complete control over the game's mechanics. This makes it easier to defeat all the Wuchang Fallen Feathers bosses without toning down the difficulty to the point where it isn't a challenge. We've also picked out some handy quality of life tweaks to reduce some of the monotony in the game.
Here are the best Wuchang Fallen Feathers mods:
- Fast Vertical Traversal
- Death Return
- Increased Consumables Stack
- No Fall Damage
- Photo Mode
- Fast Item Pick Up
- Parry Anything
- 100% Save File
Fast Vertical Traversal
Wuchang is capable of slicing through enemies in the blink of an eye; however, when it comes to climbing ladders, she's one of the slowest to ever do it. Okay, maybe Wuchang doesn't have the upper body strength needed to lift herself up and down ladders, but there's no excuse for the elevators to also be so slow.
Andrew Creekmore has addressed this glaring flaw with their Fast Vertical Traversal mod, increasing the speed of elevators and ladder climbing by 100% and 20%, respectively. Now when you're on your 50th attempt at fighting Fang Ling, you won't have to wait anywhere near as long.
Death Return
We know there are soulslike purists out there who will make the argument that the monotony of walking back and forth to the place you recently died is part of the journey. If you want to save yourself plenty of time, NGNL1's Death Return mod allows you to assign hotkeys to teleport to set locations, including your last death location.
There are some drawbacks to this mod, for example, you can't set a spawn point inside a boss arena, but you can set a spawn point outside a boss gate. This can also be very handy if you're farming an area for Red Mercury or if you're struggling to get past a particular batch of enemies.
Increased Consumables Stack
Every item in Wuchang Fallen Feathers has a limit on how many items you can carry and store in your inventory at any given time. While this is done for balancing reasons as it stops you from hoarding powerful items, the inventory limit does seem arbitrary. You can remove this limit entirely using Null_993's Increased Consumables Stack mod, giving you the power to collect and consume as many steamed buns as you'd like.
No Fall Damage
Considering everything Wuchang is capable of doing, it seems silly that she's so susceptible to dying when falling from heights. There are moments where your back will be up against a wall, forcing you to dodge into an area where you'll take fall damage which will inevitably lead to your death.
Andrew Creekmore is back yet again with the No Fall Damage mod, stopping this awkward situation from ever happening. This doesn't prevent you from falling into the void or any areas that you can't return from, so keep that in mind before you go jumping off a cliff.
Photo Mode
Wuchang Fallen Feathers is a stunning game, featuring detailed environments, unique enemy designs, and impressive set-piece moments, begging the question: why doesn't the game have a photo mode? MJ has addressed this glaring omission with their Photo Mode mod, adding hotkeys in to freeze the game at any point to capture the perfect moment.
Fast Item Pick Up
As you might've been able to tell from our list, we aren't happy with how long it takes Wuchang to perform certain actions, and it appears Andrew Creekmore feels the same way. Their Fast Item Pick Up mod increases the problematic animation by 50%, accelerating this process without making the animation look disjointed or broken.
Parry Anything
You may be disappointed to find that Wuchang doesn't have the luxury of parrying everything in sight as she's vulnerable to many types of attacks while using her Deflect ability. Channel your inner Sekiro and unleash your parry potential using Sarfflow's Parry Anything mod, upgrading your Deflect skill to stun any enemy in the game.
100% Save File
It takes over 30 hours to get through the entirety of Wuchang Fallen Feathers, and you can double that if you want to collect every item in the game. By taking advantage of EonaCat's 100% Save File, you can play as a super-charged version of Wuchang, complete with every item and skill point in the game. With all this power, you should have no problem ripping through New Game Plus.
