📋 About This Mod

This mod swaps Bear (Ursine) and Griffin armour and weapon stats. Works with Grandmaster gear and NG+.

I took the idea for this mod from GAUSS made by Zerschmetterlink

I would also like to thank them for the nice description on how to mod the xml files. Instead of ModKitchen I used WolvenKit

Like the mod I mentioned, this mod swaps stats for Ursine and Griffin armours.

However, it also swaps stats for silver and steel swords and works with NG+ and Grandmaster level gear as well.

Works with game ver. 1. 32

So the way it works - you make heavy Ursine armour, it looks like Ursine armour while you are wearing it, but the game thinks that it is medium Griffin armour with all the bonuses that come with it.

It also works the other way - if you for some reason prefer the look of Griffin armour but want your armour to be heavy, this is the mod for you. I do not judge you, no, sir.

It is compatible with mods that tuck your hair unlike texture swaps.

Also works with mods that alter the appearance of either Ursine or Griffin armour.

I recommend Fix Bear Armors, the version that removes scarf and fur really helps with creating that medium armour look.

This is my first mod. Originally I made this mod for myself, but decided to share it here in case anybody else needs it.

That is why I do not know how to fix it if there are any incompatibilities or bugs.

But if other mods you installed didn't change any stats for Bear of Griffin armour, you should be in the clear.

ScriptMerger found some conflicts with mods that edit stats for other armours and weapons, but I ignored them and it all worked fine.

How to install

Simply unpack it into the SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3\mods folder.

Create one if you don't have it already.

How to uninstall

Simply delete the folder named 'modBearGriffs'
