Description:

A serious upgrade to power and capabilities of your squad’s weapons, armor, and gear.


In our history we have had to reinvent the wheel twice now. Getting our guns up to the level of lasers and plasma back when XCOM lived in a whole in the ground and then all over again when we took to they skies. The latter spanning "decades". So here we are five years later and someone misplaced that well earned tech and fire power once again. WTF. We can do better. Your Squad deserves better. They deserve.. A Better Arsenal.


A Better Arsenal overrides the game’s default values that pertain to weapons, armor, and equipment. Core stats of damage, crit, added HP, added armor, etc. have been increased. Grenades can be thrown further and have a greater raidus of impact, not to mention blow up villainy reel’good.

For the detail folks below are the conventions used in increasing each characteristic of weapons and items.

buffed attribute: Full | LITE Damage +2-+3 | +0-+1 Spread +0 | +0 PlusOne +0 | +0 Crit +1 | +0 Pierce +1-+2 | +0 Shred +1-+3 | +0 ———————————————– AIM +10-+30 | +0-+10 CRITCHANCE +10%-+20% | +0-+10% ICLIPSIZE +5 | +2 ISOUNDRANGE +0 | +0 IENVIRONMENTDAMAGE +3 | +0 Items Armor bonus +2 | +1 Items HP bonus +2 | +1 Items Crit bonus +2 | +0 Items Crit Chance +20 | +10 Items clipsize +2 | +1 Items Healing HP +3 | +2

These were not strictly followed where they did not make sense to adjust to that amount.


All of my "A Better *" Mods are nothing more than config file overrides. There is no actual compiled code in these mods. If you like the mod but wished there was one thing changed about it please leave me feedback. However, if you want to make your own tweaks then follow the file paths below and open them up. I have placed comments to describe the changes I have made. A lot of the variables are pretty straight forward and verbose.

* Most of theses buffed items can be applied mid game to an existing save.
