📋 About This Mod
I know this mod already exists but I saw it was missing coils for DLC content and also people were not able to get the 3 modifiers for outfits (https://www.nexusmods.com/horizonzerodawn/mods/110). I got the motivation to make this mod based off of that mod so shout out to incarn.
All coils gathered will have 3 modifiers, this includes weapon coils, outfit coils, as well as DLC coils for both weapons and outfits.
Note ** - The handling stat will always have a higher value compared to the rest. This is because the game calculates handling separately it's a combination of multiple stats, it is usually given about 33% more compared to rest of the rolls. It works this way in the vanilla game as well. It's just how they coded the handling stat.
Installation
Once downloaded, unzip the folder and copy the contents into this directory,
