Leliana Item Set

Armor and weapons created to complement Leliana. These items can be purchased from Bodahn at the party camp.

ZOMG THANK YOU! Just earlier I was going through my inventory trying to find something besides the boring old Chantry robe for her to wear.

I scoured other mods looking for something I liked and just couldn't find anything I really wanted. This I love from the screenshots. Can't wait to try it out!

Great thanks!

I was hoping someone would finally make Leliana's and Sten's armor from the trailer.

Edit: I tested the armor. I like it. There are just two suggestions:

1. Can you make a 2nd, cheaper version for early/mid-game? The equipment looks good and its a shame you can only afford it so late in the game.

2. It looks a little to realistic for DA:O. If you could give the chain mail a more comic-style it would fit better into the game.

Except for that its a really good work.


I just hope you would make a Sten-armor too


Thanks for this mod!

Finally... Finally an item set for Leliana!!! I downloaded and installed the winter forge only because Leliana didn't have decent equipment. Thank you for share it!!

@kyllion: Regarding Sten, I'm sorry to say that I doubt I will be doing an armor for him. I'm pretty happy with the existing heavy/massive armors in game and available via mods, so I don't have much motivation there. I'm not particularly fanatical about matching the Sacred Ashes art, and this Leliana set was really just driven by the complete lack of decent-looking light armor options

As for the stats -- just to give an idea on how the stats were derived -- the armor stats were balanced around The Felon's Coat, Katriel's Grasp/Red Jenny Seekers, and the Bard's Dancing Shoes. The new armor does have much improved dexterity (+8 more) than those combined, but this is partially in place to offset not wanting to wear an ugly helmet, like The Long Sight, and losing out on good stats there. The daggers are actually not as powerful as The Rose's Thorn, and the bow is just slightly better than Marjolaine's recurve. That said, I may slightly tone down the set bonus stats depending on what kind of feedback people have. A +3 dex/+3 cun might be more reasonable.

Great job, hated how leather looked on female characters with only the stupid dog collar.

Leliana looks much improved

Looks great, but she looks a little fat in it, could you make her some skinnier?

[nezroy]

@trindhuill: The short answer would have to be no. The long answer is, maybe someday, but this is a straight re-texture of the existing light armor mesh, and fixing any body shape issues would require figuring out the import/export/blender process in order for me to edit the mesh. When the tools for doing that become simpler I might put some time into it, but for right now it's not something I'm planning to dive into.

That said, I personally love the torso/stomach on this particular mesh. But I guess people have been using (Un)Natural Bodies for too long As the saying goes, "A woman without a belly is like a night without stars."

@nezroy: Thanks for the answer. What about a 2nd version already available at early-mid game? Just a copy of the set, with weaker stats and cheaper, so that we can enjoy the armor through the whole game?

[nezroy]

@kyllion: That should be fairly easy to add, I'll take a shot at it for the next release (and hopefully I can fix the quiver bug too).
