LE Enchanted Guantlets/Unarmed Combat

[moebius989]

Is it possible to create a mod that lets you enchant guantlets with Lightning, Fire and Frost. For unarmed combat, sought of like the enchantments of swords, axes...etc.

Unfortunately, the lack of an Unarmed skill means you can't fortify it. It might only be possible if gauntlets are removed entirely, leaving only bracers, and readded in as a form of two-handed weapon (or a complicated design on one-handed for either hand) that fits over your hands instead of in them.

There is one way that I can think of, and I already have a mod with a similar concept (though not exactly what you are looking for). However, there are limitations that I can foresee. The biggest issue would be that it would be impossible to Brawl (bar fist-fights will turn hostile). Second, it would be difficult (for me anyway) to implement the use of perks to increase damage.

That's why I said to make them an actual weapon. That will forcefully remove them during brawls, and your skill level would increase their damage.

 

Of course, if you do add a new constellation for unarmed combat, you could probably just locate the script for brawls and ensure gauntlets are also removed.

i've made a mod with a skill based approach: Unarmed Magic http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32280

 

although a mod should be possible that checks for any elemental enchantments on gloves/gauntlets and applies the corresponding elemental damage to attacks. something similar has been done with Way of the Monk http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/15725

Yes, that is what I mean. Guantlets with elemental damage. Like with the weapons that cause fire damage, ice and so on.

I think it would be an awesome Mod to make.

Anybody make any more progress on this?

''Way of the monk''

Best unarmed/unarmored mod ever.

Try it, it's awesome.

It also has a lot of standing stone-like rocks called ''pillars of the way'' One of them adds elemental dmg to your punches. (It think it's in the Hialmarch region, but I'm not sure)
