📋 About This Mod
This mod will allow all non-Grand Master weapons and armors to be able to apply set bonuses, but only the first level. To enable the full set bonuses, you still need to equip the sufficient quantity of the Grand Master gears.
This mod lets non-Grand Master weapons and armor apply set bonuses in The Witcher 3, but only the first level. Full bonuses still require equipping enough Grand Master gear. It's a quality-of-life tweak for players who want set perks without full Grand Master sets.
