TPS Cold Dead Hands

Current Version: v1.1.0

Description

This mod completely revamps the way in which weapons and shields are acquired during the game. Instead of dropping weapons/shields from a random loot pool, enemies will now always drop the specific gun and shield that they're using. In the default configuration, enemy gear quality is also improved considerably.

In general, these enhanced enemy drops are just about the only way to acquire weapons and shields in the game. Weapons and shields will not be found in chests, and vending machines have severely restricted inventories. Some notable exceptions include quest rewards, which are unchanged, and larger "lootsplosion" type events generated by raid bosses, endgame rewards and the like.

In the default configuration, this mod is a spiritual cousin of my own Better Loot mod. You'll be up against enemies using purples, glitches, and even legendaries. Gear quality can be customized easily in FilterTool/BLCMM, so you can still play using something close to the stock Borderlands gear quality. Regardless of gear quality configuration, Badass enemies will have better gear than their ordinary counterparts.

Grenade Mods, Class Mods, and Oz Kits will still be acquired as per usual - via world drops, chests, and the like.

NOTE: This mod has a lot of user-configurable options (detailed below in the "Configuration" section). In fact, there's 30,720 theoretically-supported permutations of the options (though to be fair, there's only about 480 which are closely-related). Needless to say, I have not thoroughly tested out all combinations to ensure that everything works as it should. If you encounter strange behavior, definitely look me up on Discord, github, or email, with full details of how you've got it configured, and I can take a look.
