Of Ash and Steel Easy Armor Enhancement Mod v1.0.4

                    
The Easy Armor Enhancement mod makes the armor upgrading minigame in Of Ash and Steel much more forgiving without breaking game balance. It removes the harsh penalties for pressing the wrong button, meaning you no longer lose progress or waste valuable materials due to a simple slip-up. While you still need to input commands correctly to advance, this mod ensures that mistakes are simply ignored rather than punished, making the crafting process significantly less frustrating.
Key Features

No Progress Loss: Pressing the wrong key during the minigame no longer reduces your enhancement progress bar.
Material Protection: Mistakes will not cause you to lose extra crafting materials.
Skill-Based Limits: The mod respects your character’s actual skill level; you cannot craft higher quality gear than your current skill allows.
Standard Speed: The speed of progress and material costs for correct presses remain exactly the same as the base game.
