This mod balances EK's firearms, small and big ammunition, armor, suits, darts, crafting, except for melee/grenades/explosives/depth charges. Also adds a few custom items, visual changes, fixes, and more.

As seen in the first screenshot, this mod must be enabled after EK Armory, above EK Armory on the list, and make sure to do it each time this mod is updated since updated mods drop down to the bottom of the load order.
