✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 549 endorsements and over 12,000 downloads.
- Adds visual polish to common weapons without altering stats.
- Easy to install and remove.
⚠️ Cons
- Only eight weapons covered, so many in-game weapons remain vanilla.

For Oblivion players who want a quick visual upgrade for their most-used weapons without overhauling the entire game. Skip if you're looking for new weapon types or gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
