LE How to make unique weapons uncraftable?

[IcefireenFriends]

Thought of making a mod with a sort of... enhanced blade of woe. It would be a unique item with its own special enchantment, can't be purchased from merchants, can't be disenchanted, and uncraftable but not intemperable--like most unique weapons in game, but... how do I go about doing that?

 

I want to create a unique enchantment. I want it to be unique. And I don't want to find it in every vendor's chest ever. I want the player to have to work to get it. B-but... how do I do such a thing??

Make your weapon.

On the weapon record give it the keyword VendorNoSale <-- should not be purchasable by vendors

On the weapon record give it the keyword MagicDisallowEnchanting <-- prevents it from being usable at the enchanting table

Do not make a Constructible Object Record (COBJ) for the forge <-- will not be craftable

Do make a Constructible Object Record (COBJ) for the grinding wheel <-- will be temperable

Create one or more new magic effects for the enchantment you want to apply <-- will have a unique enchantment

Do not put the weapon into any leveled lists but rather place it directly where you want the player to find it. <-- weapon will be uniquely located

"can't be purchased from merchants" wouldn't just be not adding it to any vendor or leveled list? I mean stuff doesn't appear in vendors unless you make it appear. VendorNoSale would also prevent selling it which is odd.

Yes that's what Ishara was saying, read his post again.

Nope, not all, less quoting and more reading.

 

Ishara said "give it the keyword VendorNoSale"

 

I'm saying the opposte, to NOT give it the keyword and just not put it in leveled lists. As afaik VendorNoSale prevents selling it (I might, ofc, be wrong) and the OP apparently just want to not find this items at stores which is achieved by just not adding them to list, not an unsellable item.

I'm saying Ishara already knew that. He said (in reference to the VendorNoSale flag) that it means the weapon, "should not be purchasable by vendors," meaning vendors won't purchase the item, which is 100% accurate. He didn't say it would stop the object from being purchasable from vendors. Yes, this may not be what the OP asked for, but that's why he explained what each option does in case the OP wanted to add or remove one of them.

 

I'm saying that you are correct, and so is Ishara. Neither of you have said anything that isn't true.
