✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge time-saver for completionists (48k downloads, 2.1k endorsements).
- Frees your squad composition — no more forcing Tali or Garrus along just to open boxes.
- One less thing to worry about when exploring; just grab everything.
⚠️ Cons
- Removes a gameplay mechanic, which might feel like cheating to purists.
- No options to toggle — it's all or nothing.
- Last updated in 2022, so it may not be compatible with future patches.
For Mass Effect players who hate backtracking or swapping squadmates just to open loot. If you're a completionist who wants every credit and upgrade without squad restrictions, this is for you. Skip if you enjoy the tactical choice of bringing a tech expert.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Legendary Edition (LE1) version, not the original Mass Effect.
- Install by placing the file in your game's DLC or Mods folder, depending on your mod manager.
- If you use other mods, check load order to avoid conflicts with loot-related tweaks.
