LE Armor/weapons getting damaged (probably not what you think)

[blaa.nOx]

Hello,

 

I´m not asking for weapon degradation like in Morrowind or anything visual.

 

I had an idea for a mod that I think might actually be doable:

 

Once an enemy dies, for each piece of armor in his posession there´s a chance that it is replaced with "damaged armor".

"Damaged armor" is just a misc item with xy weight and no worth.

Same for weapons.

 

I just think the game showers you in armor and weapons and I don´t like it... the only counter for this is that the selling prices are so ridiculously low.

However, when you bash at somehow with a warhammer, killing him, could you really just take the armor off his mangled body and put it on yourself? Every damn time?

It would also make the game harder and more rewarding if killing someone in armor wouldn´t equal to you getting a full set of armor.

 

Of course you could complicate the mod a whole lot by adding fancy stuff(damaged armor for certain materials which can be smelted, damaged armor still functional with lowered armor ratings, etc. etc.) but even the most basic version imaginable would be a great addition to the game if you ask me.

 

Any thoughts?

I really like this idea. It makes sense, too. Hope someone may be able to make it happen :)
