LE Blades Armor Improvement

[Tanooki1432]

Hi everybody!

 

Here's what I'd like to do:

 

1. Create an identical in appearance, stand alone, Light Armor version of the Blades Armor.

2. Make both the Heavy and Light versions forgable (preferably AFTER you have found Sky Haven Temple).

3. Make both the Heavy and Light versions upgradable.

 

Any tips, suggestions, help?

Or has someone already done this and I just haven't looked hard enough?

If you would like to do it yourself in the CK, it would be pretty simple.

 

1) Duplicate all items of the blades armor. Edit each duplicate, giving it a new name like "Light Blades Helmet" or whatever and a new ID. Change the weight (it should be lighter since it's no longer heavy armor) and change the armor type to 'light'. Bonus: drop it on a shelf or something in the Sky Haven Temple cell if you want it to exist in the world.

 

2) Under "Items" is a subcategory called "Constructible Objects", which is where all recipes are stored. If the Blades armor doesn't already have a crafting recipe then duplicate some other heavy armor recipe and change what it creates. The window is pretty self-explanatory once you get into it. Do the same for the light armor versions. To make them only craftable after finding Sky Haven Temple, in the conditions on the bottom of the window find the "quest completed" choice and fill it in with the MQwhaterver... whichever one it is that leads you to the Temple.

 

3) Tempering recipes are also stored under Constructible Objects, so once again duplicate, rename, and edit. :)

For the quest completed, I'm not sure which MQ refers to that quest, also, what do I want to set it equal to?
