What This Mod Does

Replaces common spell motions: right‑hand / left‑hand cast, staff idle & locomotion, equip/unequip, staff block, and more.
Polishes cast wind‑up, release, recovery, and loop poses so magic feels weighty and readable.

Great for players who…

Use “just guard” mods and need clearer enemy wind‑ups to time perfect blocks.

Included Files

The Welkynd.zip Inside the zip you will find:
