[Skyrim SE/AE, Mod Idea/Request] More Diverse Bandit equipment

[vilkengert]

The basic idea is that, like, 50% of bandits would spawn with their vanilla gear, and the other 50% could spawn wearing and wielding anything at all. Everything from normal clothes to stahlrim to white elf armor. Obviously rarer equipment would/should be less likely to spawn.

I tried to make this mod a while ago and after about of month I had to come to terms with the fact that I'm just not a computer person. Looking it up, from what I understand leveled list mods aren't supposed to be super hard to make, I just couldn't do it lol. 

If you make this, I'd be grateful. If you told me how to make it in steps that not even a vegetable could screw up, I'd also be grateful.

I love this idea! It would definitely make bandit encounters more exciting and varied. Don’t worry, creating a leveled list mod isn’t too hard, and I can walk you through it.

Steps:

1. Create a Leveled List:

   • In the Creation Kit, go to Items > Leveled Item and create a new leveled list (e.g., Bandit_Gear).
   • Add vanilla bandit gear (Steel, Iron, etc.) and high-tier armor (Stahlrim, White Elf) with lower chances for the rarer items.

2. Assign the Leveled List to Bandits:

   • Go to Actor > Bandit and add your leveled list to their inventory in the Actor window.

3. Test:

   • Save your mod, test it by spawning bandits, and adjust the chances if necessary.

That’s the basic outline. Let me know if you need more help with any of these steps!
