🎯 Tips & Tricks
Check your game version matches 1.08.2 before installing, as newer patches may break compatibility.
If you're using a mod manager, load this mod after other gameplay overhauls to ensure its changes take effect.
Test the mod in a low-stakes fight first to see how the new crossbow damage feels before committing to a build.
