📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust (29,580 endorsements) — this is the go-to for stat clarity.
  • Nearly a million downloads (967,758) prove it's been battle-tested by the community.
  • Kills the guesswork — no more wondering if 'Exceptional Damage' is worth it.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2016 — may not cover mods from later DLCs or updates.
  • Only affects descriptions, not actual stats — you still need to compare numbers yourself.
  • No explicit compatibility notes for other UI mods, so conflicts are possible.
🎯 Is This For You?
