Eiconic Equipment - Gear and Recipe Overhaul

Final Fantasy XVI currently lacks RPG elements related to equipment and accessories. This mod was created to provide returning players with a different experience, encourage them to change weapons more frequently, and use each sword's new unique effect.

The effects themselves were designed to be much stronger than the corresponding accessories, allowing Clive to perform new SSStylish technologies by reducing the delay time or giving players an incentive to use all of their Eiconic arsenal, including Torgal and underutilized abilities such as Flare Breath.

In addition to the unique special effects, each weapon of this rank has the same total power (ATK and Stagger), but the damage can be distributed differently between the two stats.

Some weapons are too powerful for the time you get them in the game. This is a known problem due to the lack of upgrade stages and the desire to make each weapon equal in the endgame. In the future, mod may add more stages of modernization. In the meantime, consider it your choice whether to use these weapons earlier than scheduled or not!

In the future, some changes may affect and belts, tambras, and even accessories!

In addition to weapon changes, the progression of the gear has been redesigned, and players will now have to make better use of their resources.

THIS FASHION ONLY WORKS IF YOUR GAME LANGUAGE IS INSTALLED IN ENGLISH!

YOU MAY ALSO HAVE TO CHANGE THE REGIONAL FORMAT OF YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM TO ENGLISH!

This is the mod for Reloaded-II. FFXVI Mod Loader is also required.

Below is (hopefully!) a complete list of all the changes made by the mod:
