OTHER:

  • Individual research for each weapon.
  • Weapons can be bought at the Scraphouse (Black Desert City).

TO DO:

  • Miaodao (as suggested by a player);
  • NPCs/Meitou weapons;
  • Armor (probably a standalone mod);
  • Add some images to the mod page.

I haven’t had a lot of time to mod and that’s the main reason this big update took so long to release. I intend to make small additions at least once a week and I’ll keep an eye on suggestions everyday. Fixes and balancing will be made as soon as you guys warn me of them.

These mods take some time to create, and with copper mining, research and my own Kenshi adventures, I don’t get a lot of time to work on these kinds of projects. I hope you all understand any eventual lack of updates. If you enjoyed my mod and want to support my work, consider buying me a bottle of bloodrum.

The textures on the models are from the Weapon Retexture mod, by NANOU, which I HIGHLY recommend.

Balancing suggestions are always welcome.
