Downloading more and more new weapon and armor mods for Skyrim, each player is looking for something specific for themselves. We present your choice of three different modifications with which you can equip Dovahkiin in a new way.
Etherium Equipment
The heaviest armor in the game is the Dwemer power armor set. To make one, Dovahkiin will need to complete the quest “From the Depths” and learn the secrets of dwarf technology. In addition, you will need to work hard in the forge and get your hands on making Dwemer armor, as well as gain the Blacksmith-Wizard ability.
In terms of protective characteristics, ethereal armor is almost equal to Daedric armor.
Version 2.0 adds an extensive arsenal of etherium weapons, and silver, unenchanted variations for weapons and armor elements also appear. Particular attention should be paid to the Etherium Bolt Launcher: when combined with Dwemer bolts, it becomes the deadliest crossbow in the game.
Crafting
To create ethereal equipment, you need to download the first of the weapon and armor mods offered here to Skyrim and, of course, get hold of etherium. Rare ore is found inside Dwemer ruins, and you will have to work with it in a special ethereal forge.
Requires DLC Dawnguard.
Obsidian Equipment
In addition to new armor, this mod adds a small quest. After visiting Markarth, head to the Understone Fortress and look at the display cases next to Colcelmo: on one of them there is a sheet from a magazine...
After completing the quest, Dovahkiin will learn how to make light obsidian armor and a new type of weapon. In appearance, this equipment is similar to Dwemer, but differs in the presence of obsidian inserts. The protection characteristics are comparable to those of dragon armor.
When installing a mod for obsidian armor and weapons on Skyrim, pay attention to the “Optional” folder - there is a replacer there that allows you to improve the quality of textures for all Dwemer equipment in the game.
Death Dealer Equipment
The modification adds a mini-quest, during which Dovahkiin will have to defeat a new boss - the Death Dealer - and take possession of his armor and weapons. Miguel will tell you how and where to find this dangerous enemy at the Wanderer's Pass.
To take possession of the equipment, you need to either get to the site of the Death Dealer's battle with a gang of mercenaries, or visit his altar. In the latter case, you will need to climb to the top of Mount Antor.
Please note: Merchant armor is only suitable for male characters.
All these mods for Skyrim for weapons and armor are installed according to the standard scheme.
Weapons and Armor is a category of addons for Skyrim that includes custom armor and weapons added or modified by addons. Armor and weapons are important components of the game, as they are essentially the most important thing that the player is looking for and wants to find in chests and valuable loot. In addition, weapons are constantly looming before Dovahkiin’s eyes, and equipment and armor play an important role in the appearance of your companion. Of course, you shouldn’t forget about the characteristics of armor and weapons, since they play the largest role in the player’s combat performance.
The most famous mods in the Weapons and Armor category:
- Warmonger Armory– reworking and adding new lore types of armor and weapons, adding them to the level list and progressing them along with the player
- Immersive Weapons– lore-friendly weapon sets that can be found everywhere in the world, and can also be bought from merchants
- Immersive Armors– lore armor sets, handmade from components of other armor sets, as well as created from custom models and textures. Everything is included in the master list and everything will find use in Dovahkiin’s arsenal.
- Dragonbone Weapons– adds sets of crafted dragon bone weapons to all forges to strike terror into the hearts of unfortunate Dragons.
If you prefer Skyrim armor mods with a good selection of armor, this modification is what you need. Dozens of new sets for equipping Dovahkiin and his henchmen are being added to the game, but there will be no rebalance of power. All content is perfectly integrated into the atmosphere of Skyrim, each player will be able to choose a set according to their chosen tactics and character experience.
After version 7.1, the mod is equipped with an MCM menu, making setup much easier and more convenient. If you prefer to do without SkyUI, you will need to study a special book of spells, with the help of which you can control this Skyrim armor mod.
Peculiarities:
A huge amount of new armor and clothing;
Setting the armor type: light, heavy, degree of protection, presence or absence of fur.
Compatibility:
The mod works great with CBBE Skyrim armor, as well as UNP body mods. To use these plugins together, you will need some tricks, more on that below.
Repainting bandanas and shields:
You can choose a color to suit your taste at the Heavenly Forge. A stand for shields will appear there: you need to place the required item (bandana or shield) on it and paint it.
Notes:
1. When using UNP bodies, you will need to copy Meshes from the corresponding folder in the archive and place them in Data, confirming the replacement of files.
2. When using CBBE armor for Skyrim, proceed in the same way, but you will first need to download the “CBBE Patch” from the link.
3. When using Bodyslide to run the mod, you can download “Bodyslide Presets for CBBE” from this link.
