Vanilla Redemption Gear

A little side project I did. Replaces vanilla weapons with Redemption gear, nerfed to be closer to vanilla weapon balance.

Since vanilla has an imbalance of damage output and damage per refill biased toward special weapons, while Redemption does not, some liberties had to be taken. The weapons should be between vanilla primary and special weapons in effectiveness and efficiency, erring on the side of primaries' lower stats since all Redemption weapons have 2 innate pierce and higher crit multipliers.

An extra Player datablock with Vanilla Plus stamina, health regen, and fall damage rebalancing is packaged with the mod and can be manually installed if desired.
