Are you tired of Abyss gear that feels more like inventory clutter than legendary artifacts? This mod provides a comprehensive overhaul to the core Abyss artifacts, transforming them into specialized, powerful tools for your journey. Designed for Crimson Desert Patch 1.04.02, this rework ensures that each artifact provides impactful bonuses that actually matter for your specific playstyle.
Compatibility Note: This mod currently requires Definitive Mod Manager (DMM) as it utilizes advanced v3 field archives. It will be compatible with JSON Mod Manager (JMM) as soon as it updates to support the v3 format.
Requirements:
– Definitive Mod Manager (DMM)
