Witcher 3 | CROW - Combat Defense mod

The Combat Defense module of CROW puts the counters (perfect parries) at the center of the combat system and transforms dodges into a positioning tool to create a truly melee & fast paced combat experience.

[@enzodebil989]

can you try making a mod where you can do perfect block/parry enemies when you do a perfect timed cast of the normal quen(especially when there's exploding shield on it)?

[@LegsON]

Finally it's here.
Great job, mate!
Does it go well with Redux? What do you recommend to pair it with?

[@thibaultaelto4673]

Thanks! You can pair it with whatever you want, the reason it is kept small is to allow you to combine it with any kind of mod you'd like as long as they merge fine. If by Redux you mean W3EE Redux then no they don't merge well unfortunately, W3EE changed too much stuff for these kind of small mods to work without patches.
However i implemented the mod in a way that allows it to scale off any stamina modifying mod, so let's say you wanted to use ESGO and add stamina costs to your actions and to increase stamina regen then CROW would adjust the regeneration provided by its buffs

[@someguy9970]

Did you hide/remove the icon for the buff this mod gives? I recently installed it and I legit can't tell if I'm getting the stamina buff or not during combat. Everything else is working though.

[@thibaultaelto4673]

Yes i did, instead the XP bar is used (only during combat) how much of your stamina is regained per second. For example an xp bat at 75% means you get 75% of your total stamina every second.

[@zowbaid89]

Is this an improvement over your Combat Skills mod, or is this is an entirely new mod?

[@thibaultaelto4673]

It's an entirely new series of mod! But it should work with combat skills seamlessly!

[@NPCSlayer666]

Is this still compatible with 4.04? I've attempted to install it several times but keep encountering script errors. Surprisingly, the error message refers to your other mod, Smart Camera. Do you have any advice? Thanks.

[@thibaultaelto4673]

Both are compatible for 4.04, make sure both mods are on their latest versions.

[@odium1954]

what mod are you using for the animations ?

[@thibaultaelto4673]

hi! For the movements/dodges it's SCAAR. For the attack animations it's E3 Improved Combat Animations, it's a bit hard to find an up to date version of this one so you'll have to search a bit.

[@RicherDePersis]

Very nice usefull and a nice mod !! why it isnt published on nexus ?

[@thibaultaelto4673]

Because not every mod has to be on nexusmods. It's been a long time since i stopped publishing anything to this website, it completely goes against the principle of sharing stuff on the internet imo

[@RicherDePersis]

@@thibaultaelto4673 ok ok i didnt know but thank you very nice and usefull mod

[@snakeqq8080]

bro i am sorry to ask but, how do you uninstall the mod? I tried to type the 'crowfix' in console command, but I still got the script error when I go for a game start without the mod, but fine with it.

[@thibaultaelto4673]

A script error? The command is to avoid a potential crash if you have other mods that use the same underlying storage.
Run the command, save, remove the crow mod which can come in 3 folders, and remove the sharedutils storage folder as well. That should do it !
Of course update your merges if you use other mods

@@thibaultaelto4673 thank you so much for the reply! I’ll try it appreciated

[@snakeqq8080]

@@thibaultaelto4673 bro btw does the mod change the speed of dodging and rolling?

[@thibaultaelto4673]

@@snakeqq8080 it does yes, a 30% increase or so. It turns the dodge into a positioning tool since you can rely more on the parries for the defense
