📋 About This Mod
REFORGE LEVELED UNIQUES
INTRODUCTION
Some quests rewards are leveled uniques. That means that some unique items have different versions. The game gives you one of these versions depending on the level your character is. This can be a problem for your gameplay, since you will have to wait to be at a certain level to start certain quests if you want to obtain the best version of the reward, and that could block the natural flow of your gameplay. Also, when you obtain a version of a leveled unique, you are stuck with it forever, even if there are better versions of that item.
This mod offers a solution to that problem, even more, a lore-friendly solution. It allows you to obtain better versions of the leveled unique items when you advance to the levels on which you would had obtained a better version of the item. If you wish to learn more about what this mod does and how it works, please continue reading, for you will find a more detailed description of this mod of mine.

ABOUT THE CONCEPT OF "REFORGING"
The concept of "reforging" is a concept I use for an "out of the lore" context. It helps me explain what the mod does and helps you understand how the mod works. It is useful for avoiding misunderstandings.
When in an "inside of the lore" context, I use the concept of "deep tempering" or "advanced tempering". It is exactly the same, with the benefit of keeping it lore-friendly.

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2018 — may be incompatible with current game versions.

Skip if you want broader crafting overhauls or don't care about min-maxing unique gear.
