Enhance Your Avowed Experience: Top Mods for Smoother Gameplay
Obsidian's Avowed is generating significant excitement, but even the best games benefit from a few tweaks. Here are some of the best mods to elevate your Avowed experience.

1. Better Companions:
Avowed's companion system is a key feature, but companions often underperform in combat. The "Better Companions" mod addresses this by significantly increasing their combat effectiveness. While you'll still lead the charge, your allies will contribute more meaningfully to battles.
2. Optimized Tweaks AVD – Reduced Stutter, Lower Latency, Better Frametimes, Improved Performance:
This highly popular Nexus Mods entry tackles performance issues plaguing Avowed. It targets stuttering, latency, and overall performance, optimizing CPU and GPU usage, improving loading times, and enhancing memory management—all without compromising visual fidelity.
3. More Ability Points:
For players focused on character building, this mod provides two extra Ability Points per level. This accelerates character progression, allowing for faster experimentation with different builds and less agonizing over limited point allocation.
4. More Lockpicks:
Lockpicks are crucial for accessing chests containing valuable loot. The "More Lockpicks" mod increases the availability of lockpicks from merchants, ensuring a consistent supply and reducing the frustration of running out at critical moments.
5. Shorter Death Screen:
Avowed's lengthy death screen can be frustrating, especially for new players. This mod drastically reduces the death screen's duration, minimizing downtime and allowing for quicker return to the action after unavoidable demise.
All mods mentioned are available on Nexus Mods.
Avowed is currently available on PC and Xbox.
