New Merchants
Various merchants have been added and a few have been updated.
Ranni Puppet
The pseudo-mascot for Dark Moon, this puppet of Lunar Princess Ranni can be found throughout The Lands Between, but mainly it sits in Roundtable Hold across from the Twin Maiden Husks. It will sell you some general items, like new ones given to new classes, but also has a few specialty shops and other menu options.
Boss Resurrection
Thanks to a fantastic mod by Vawser, you can now resurrect bosses by talking to the Ranni Puppet. It uses a Larval Tear to perform this resurrection so be sure to purchase one nearby if you run out! Oh, that's also a change in Dark Moon, Larval Tears are infinitely purchasable from the Twin Maiden Husks.
Colosseum Shop
Participating in The Arena at the Colosseums rewards you with Gold Coins. You can turn these in to the Ranni Puppet in exchange for various armor and weapons ported from other games. You can access this shop anywhere the Ranni Puppet is.
Omnipotent Shop
The Omnipotent Shop, usually available at the Omnipotent Statue at the beginning of the game, will be reopened by the Ranni Puppet upon defeating the Elden Beast or skipping to Journey 2. This shop allows you to purchase any item in the base game including cut content.
Smithing Master Hewg
Hewg, the misbegotten smith found in Roundtable Hold, has learned a new skill in Dark Moon. He now knows how to forge Smithing Stone Shards into your weapons directly to upgrade them, meaning you only need one type of Smithing Stone instead of the various + variants.
- Standard weapons cost 650 Smithing Stone Shards to upgrade fully to +25.
- Unique weapons cost 110 Smithing Stone Shards to upgrade fully to +10.
