FlatItemBuff

Overview

The purpose of this mod is to add some level of scaling to (what I believe are) under performing items that don't really scale with the player. At least that's what it used to be, now I sorta just change things that I think are underwhelming or never hear anything positive about it.

Configs are provided for those that wish to tweak or disable most changes made by this mod.
