IS ther a mod or patch or any way to get the original v1.0 Blood Dragon Armor?

[hikodanna]

As thread title really, I really think it was extremely unethical what BioWare did when nerfing the Blood Dragon Armor on PC after advertising and selling it based on the old stats, so is there any way I can get my armor back to the original V.10 version? Thanks!

Did you try downloading and installing the version 1.0 BDA from the Bioware CDN server?

If you already have the armour in-game, you'll have to delete it and add new copies with the dev console to see the new/old stats... the additem script (this or this) should include the armour, and there's also a script specifically for just the BDA: Add Blood Dragon Armor Console Script.

Awesome skymoves, thanks! Already got Additem installed so good to go. I already had that dazip but I wasn't sure where it came from so I was worried about installing it over my current dragonplate install. Do you know if there's a dazip for the v1.1 just in case something goes wrong, or could I reinstall the dragonplate using steams file verification system (after removing the 1.0 mod first of course).

 

EDIT: V.10 Armor has been installed and added without a hitch!

Glad it worked! :thumbsup:

 

If you want to switch back, you can download the v1.1 DAzip from the same source: http://lvlt.bioware.cdn.ea.com/bioware/u/p/eagames/bioware/dragonage/content/DAO_PRC_PROMO_ME/DAO_PRC_PROMO_ME_1.0.dazip

 

There's also a link to that file from the Origins DLC page on the Dragon Age wiki. (Or verifying/repairing your game would probably update the installed version as well.)
