Armor Overhaul(ish)

Game version 1.2.3/4/5


ATTENTION: People who experience weird affixes stats after the v1.2.5 update, this was caused by the 
                              update and fixed with the latest hotfix, 10.17.2025. Thanks to th3birdisth3word for bringing it
                         to my attention. The mod works fine.



Increased number of Armor/Weapon Affixes.
Increased Armor value for each armor piece.
Added affixes to Armor pieces.
Increased number of repairs for each weapon.
Optional: Double affixes value.
Optional: Everything has Everything. All Armor pieces/ Weapons have all affixes.



General changes to all versions of this mod:

  * Armor pieces have 5 affixes.
    Since armor affixes are Fixed in Dying Light the Beast, by default I added 'Melee stamina reduced' and 'Recognition Time' to all armor pieces.
    This is except for the 'Heavy' armor and the 'Survivor' armor.
    - 'Heavy Armor' acts like the 'Tank' armor in Dying Light 2: Damage resistance infected, Damage resistance human, Two handed weapon damage
      increase, Damage increase on charge attack, Stamina reduced melee weapons.
    - 'Survivor Armor' acts like the 'Brawler' armor in Dying Light 2: Weapons melee damage increase, Melee weapon stamina reduced, Damage
      resistance humans, Damage resistance infected, Recognition time.

  * Epic (Violet) weapons in the game have 4 affixes.
    Legendary (Orange) weapons in the game have 5 affixes.

  * Weapon repairs increased: Uncommon/Common - 3 repairs.
                                                Rare                             - 9 repairs.
                                                Epic                            - 12 repairs.
                                                Legendary                  - 15 repairs.

  * 'INCREASED' - Every piece of gear in the game has its Armor value increased by 30%.

  * 'HEAVY INCREASED' - Every Armor Set in the game shares the properties of the 'Heavy' armor (Highest in-game armor values). On top
                                           of that, each piece of gear armor value is increased by 30%.

  * 'EVERYTHING HAS EVERTHING [INCREASED]' - All armor pieces in the game have all available affixes (17).
                                                                                     All Weapons in the game have all available affixes (Epic and Legendary only). Weapon affixes
                                                                                     run between 18 - 20, due to 'Crafted Weapons' having unique affixes.

New to this mod:

New: (10.16.2025, requested) - 'Armor Overhaul - only Armor'
                                                      Removed added affixes on weapons, removed added repairs on weapons.
                                                      Basically the 'INCREASED' version without the changes to weapons.
                                                      Affixes on the 'Explorer Armor' were taken from the 'XP for Mummies' mod, and they are:
                                                      XP increase (vanilla), stamina reduced melee weapons, damage resistance infected, melee
                                                      weapon damage increase, recognition time.

New: (10.12.2025, requested) -  'Armor Overhaul - Base'.
                                                   No 30% armor value increase, No heavy armor attributes extended to all armor sets.
                                                   Just the added affixes on armor and weapons, and added repairs on weapons. Basically the 'Increased' version
                                                      (Download 1) without the 30% increase in armor value.

New: (10.10.2025) - Added patch for the Broom is back (and paraglider) mod by Bub200. Check Changelogs for more information.
