Unscaled Common Weapons/Armor

[371theilkhan]

Oblivion and SI both use a system to determine the quality of common weapons and armor based around the level of the player when the player first encounters them (i.e., loots armor from a dead npc, or enters a cell with a weapon). The problem i'm facing is that i have the direct download version from Steam (deluxe, with SI and all other DLC), and since SI checks for the player level after installation (not the above method), i will be forced to accept the fact that the armor and weapons from SI will never be much better than say iron gear. So hear is my question, anyone seen a mod or script edit that that can work around this little inconvieniance. (at least they got it right with nights of nine, luv the armor stand magically "leveling" the armor and weapons you get)

Is this really true? I know that you might get a permanently gimped quest reward or some such if you get it at an early level (and I think there are a couple of mods that fix this issue, like Quest Reward Leveller), but I don't think this happens with regular equipment.

not all of the gear in oblivion are leveled...some (mainly unique, but not all) have static stats that wont change no matter what level you are when you get it. 99.9% of the generic gear however are and have anywhere between 5-7 differing quality versions. i just hate seeing meruhn's razor doing 3 damage and have crappy stats or having to intentionally wait until im at higher levels to do the quest and get a better version of it, or alot of the gear from si not even worth the effort to get them.

you should get the quest reward thing. I use it. Made me mad when I got the Blackwater blade with it doing 2 dam.
