This mod ups the drop rate of cursed items in chests where they where originally found. No new BBI cursed items were added to any chest and no items originally found in those chest were removed. I only lowered the chance those items would drop in favor of BBI cursed items. I only adjusted level 2 and 3. I didn't bother with Novelty

This file modifies the drop rate of BBI cursed items found in chests. Nothing is added or removed from the chest loot pool just drop rate increase/decrease. I was inspired by Better Post-Dragon Everfall Drops(Merge File) and used the ist File Format Guide and ARCtool to unpack and edit the game files. Also used a Hex editor. Thanks to those who created ARCTool and the IST File Format Guide. That guide saved me a LOT of work.
Updated to add Armor level 2 and 3 to the increased drop chance from chests in BBI
This is just a personal project I was doing so nothing serious. BBI Armor ,Gear ,and Weapons lvl.2 to lvl3 item drop rate's are increased. Some of the other drops in these specific chests where BBI items are found have lower chances so that I could upgrade the cursed items drop rate.
I'm currently playing in post Daimon game and it appears to be working for me. I would assume this would work for pre Daimon too but I haven't tested that yet. When I start NG+++++++++ I will check. Hope this helps remove some of the Godsbaning grind.
I uploaded it now because I'm feeling quite sick atm and don't know when I will finish this. Maybe someone can do the rest. EDIT: I think this is the final version unless people really want Novelty item drop rates increased....
To install :
goto "...\Steam\steamapps\common\DDDA\nativePC\rom\" directory and make a backup of the file "bbs_rpg.arc" so that you can revert to the original if you want to.
Overwrite "...\Steam\steamapps\common\DDDA\nativePC\rom\bbs_rpg.arc" with the one in this download.
Start the game. Profitz
For merging only one file is modified in the bbs_rpg.arc archive: bbs_rpg\etc\item\itemSetTbl.ist
