📋 About This Mod
Rebalances the KBAR-32 Battle Rifle to better fit vanilla Starfield weapon balance (or Balanced Ballistics)
KBAR-32 by jkninethree - Rebalance
Description
This mod rebalances the KBAR-32 by jkninethree to better fit into the vanilla Starfield weapon ecosystem.
This Battle Rifle has been adjusted to align with a more grounded and consistent balance philosophy, inspired by mods such as Balanced Ballistics, but tries to keep the original vision preserved.
This makes the KBAR-32 Battle Rifle feel more natural alongside other weapons throughout the game, without breaking overall combat balance, while maintaining it's identity as a high damage and hard to control weapon.
No Changes were required for Leveled List Integration and only Stats were adjusted.

Recommended Mods
-
[]Balanced Ballistics (recommended for a more consistent overall weapon balance across Starfield)[/]
[]Starshake Visual Recoil (really elevates the feeling of a hefty, chonky weapon)[/]
[]Realistic Recoil (makes Recoil feel way more impactful by not recentering crosshairs anymore!)[/]
This mod takes inspiration from Balanced Ballistics in terms of general balancing philosophy, so using it alongside will result in a more cohesive and grounded combat experience while still staying close to vanilla gameplay.
