The Essential Weapon Rework Mod - NEXT GEN Compatible

UPDATED FOR NEXT GEN

MOD Description:

For 5 years, I've been waiting for a mod that reworked vanilla Relic weapons because of how depressingly weak they were. I've waited, and waited, and waited....and I finally decided enough is enough.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's finally here. This mod completely reworks and rebalances the stats on ALL vanilla Relic and Witcher weapons. That's 100+ NG and NG+ weapons completely redone from the ground up to fit whatever build you desire. This also includes all Grandmaster Witcher weapons from the Blood and Wine DLC. This mod Primarily modifies stats. But some new Weapon Icons have been created; in addition, a couple of weapons have had their meshes fixed, and SEVERAL weapon-related bugs have been fixed.

The goal of this mod was to redo all vanilla Relic weapons to match the level of power and strength of Relic weapons in the BaW Expansion. Eventually, it evolved into updating ALL Relic weapons in the game to fight on the same balanced playing field. I thought it was an absolute shame that vanilla Relic weapons were treated as nothing more than crowns for exchange since most of them had utter garbage stats. Also, what was up with their random stat distribution? Now, when you find a Relic out in the world, you'll actually feel that level of excitement you're meant to feel discovering a high-tier piece of gear in an RPG. Each Relic feels unique and different from any other you'll discover. Some of them have powerful stats that work well together. Others meet specific build requirements. Others are just all-out crazy and fun combinations. I hope that you'll all enjoy this mod and feel a new sense of wonderment discovering weapons again. (Note: All screenshots above are taken of NG weapons, not NG+.)
