armor stats / change

[jasmerd]

I have downloaded an armor that I really like it's amazing - problem is that the stats on it are retarded OP and I would like to lower the stats to a more realisitc value - is this possible?

Definitely doable. All you need to do is open up the armor in the Creation Kit, selecting the mod as the active file, find the armor, and change the value. To find the armor, simply navigate through the menu on the left of the Object Window, into the section titled Items. Within that section is a section titled Armor. Click on that, and it will bring up a list of the armors. It will probably be listed in order of Editor ID by default. Changing this to sort by Name would probably make the armor easier to find. Do this by clicking on Name at the top of the Object Window. Then simply scroll until you find the armor. Double click on it and it will open up a window for the armor. From there, you can change the value, weight, armor rating, and a variety of other things. So if you wanted to lower the armor rating of the armor to make it less OP, that would be where to do it.

Thanks for the tip on using Creation Kit. That was my first experience using it and it took me a short while to figure it out but I was able to modify the stats and make the gear a bit more realisitic. I modified the weight and the armor ratings close to the gear I am using now. One Mistake I did make tho was looking at the armor rating on my high lvl character... Caveat - I have skills that increased my armor rating so i went back to a save game and player.additems the gear I was cloning stats to to a noob character and got the REAL stat values and intigrated them into the new armor skin I am using..
