Best Mods for Avowed

Better Companions

One of the highlights of *Avowed* is the ability to recruit companions to assist in navigating the treacherous Living Lands. However, these allies often fall short in combat, leaving you to handle most of the heavy lifting. The Better Companions mod addresses this issue by enhancing your party members' effectiveness in battle. While you'll still lead the charge, your companions will now be more capable of managing threats in your absence, making your adventures smoother and more enjoyable.

Optimized Tweaks AVD – Reduced Stutter, Lower Latency, Better Frametimes, Improved Performance

The most popular mod for *Avowed* on Nexus Mods focuses on improving the game's performance. Even the smoothest games can suffer from latency issues, and *Avowed* is no exception. Players have reported stuttering, but the community has stepped up with a mod that tackles these problems head-on. The Optimized Tweaks mod enhances CPU and GPU efficiency, reduces latency, speeds up loading and boot times, and improves streaming and memory management, all while maintaining the game's visual quality. This mod is a must-have for a seamless gaming experience.

More Ability Points

For players focused on crafting their ideal build, earning Ability Points can be a slow process. The More Ability Points mod accelerates this journey by granting two additional Ability Points per level. This allows for significant upgrades early on, freeing you from the constraints of limited points and enabling you to experiment with different builds more freely.

More Lockpicks

Lockpicks are essential in *Avowed* for accessing the locked chests scattered throughout the Living Lands, which often contain valuable gear. However, acquiring Lockpicks can be challenging. The More Lockpicks mod solves this by increasing the availability of Lockpicks from traders. This ensures you're never short on Lockpicks when you encounter a rare chest, though you'll still need to purchase them when the opportunity arises.

Shorter Death Screen

New players to RPGs like *Avowed* may face a steep learning curve and frequent deaths. The game's lengthy death screen can add frustration to these setbacks. The Shorter Death Screen mod reduces the time spent on the death screen, allowing you to jump back into the action more quickly and play with less interruption.

These are the top mods for *Avowed* that can significantly enhance your gameplay. All of these mods are available on Nexus Mods, ready to download and improve your *Avowed* experience.

*Avowed is available now on PC and Xbox.*
