Exchangeable Blade/Blunt

[bascillies]

I have always had trouble choosing between training blade or blunt - I'm using deadly reflex and I want to experience the game with both, but let's face it - vanilla, as well as most mods focus around adding swords to the game.

 

I want to train blunt but not have that huge end-game disadvantage of "the best sword in the game is 5x worth the best axe in the game".

 

Was curious if there was any mod that makes the blade/blunt exchangeable to the point where they are essentially the same skill? I don't like choosing which to use :(

I know this doesn't answer your question, but why not download a better axe?

Or even better yet, make a better axe. Stat tweaking an axe is probably the easiest thing to do in the TES CS

I like switching between weapons, though.

 

Example: If I train blade I can switch between a massive flaming cleaver and a sword that looks like the apocalypse.

 

Example: If I train blunt I can switch between a daedric axe and... well... a daedric axe. Not many cool end-game blunts that I like to use :/

Only way I could think to do that is to change every blade to a blunt, or vic-versa. The weapon types are hard-coded into the game.

That's a great idea actually, thank you!

Well, I'll get on it, but it's a lot of grunt work. Which do you want, blade or blunt?

[robertkor]

there are mods that do this if i recal correctly

[razorpony]

If you only have one type of weapon, ie Blunt, do you also have to modify the leveling system to ignore blade and only base strength off of blunt?

No, don't think so. You see, you level by increasing your main skills. Blunt and blade are some of them, but most classed that have a weapons focus include both, so you'll still be using one of your leveling wossnames.
