You have several companions which you want to upgrade their gear, instead of spending time manually comparing the armor's obvious stats with the newly acquired gear, this mod allows you to automatically upgrade all slots on all follower's equipment from inventory with a single button press. You can also have more specific controls setup ahead of time, such as locking slots of gear, or individually setting ranged or melee or damage type preferences.

HOW TO USE FILTERS


  • Default state - parameters of the current filter correspond to the default filter parameters.
  • Changed state - at least one parameter does NOT match the default filter.
  • Locked state - all filter parameters are zero and this slot does not participate in the best items search.
1.Click the filter icon that is located on the slot in the menu.

2. In this window, you can adjust the ratio of indicators that are preferred for the search. If you set the value to the minimum (0%), this parameter is not taken into account at all. The checkbox indicates whether the current value is the same as the default value. If not, then you can click the checkbox to make the current value the default value. Thus, if there are characters that have previously used the default values, they will use the new value. New characters in the squad will behave the same way. Since. all new characters use the default values. 

Features
  • Fast equip best armor, weapon, and mount 
  • You can lock the slots so that they are not searched for items
  • You can change the item filtering parameters
  • The state of the locks is stored for each character in the squad
  • Buttons are displayed only when there are better items
  • All items for all characters equip by one click
  • Equip directly from the store, loot, inventory (you can lock \ unlock panels)
  • Vortex support
  • You can hide layers using the button if they overlap the tooltip
Weapon explanation:
For the mod to start looking for the best weapon, put the necessary type of weapon in any of the slots. The mod will search for weapons
corresponding to the first weapon component. This is due to cases where the one-handed spear was changed to a two-handed  halberd. For example: if you put a one-handed ax in the weapon slot, the mod will look for the best one-handed ax, not the best one-handed  weapon
