📋 About This Mod
compatible with v3. 0+ courtesy of PaLoALo
Huge update at v2. 6 which included a full Unity rework by Little Red Sonja. Big thanks to her for the effort. You are going to love the new gear!
The mod now adds in a craftable and balanced Katana, Nodachi, Wakazashi, and Tanto kinfe. There is also a full quest line to achieve each item.
All xml updated to reflect the new items, the quests will now respect the kill requirements, and progression was rewritten.
If you use Quartz and my mod Attribute-Skill-Perk Window Resize that changes the progression so plz choose one method or the other. No harm will happen if you already have craftingBlades maxed out, but if not, then do not switch out the above two mods if you have them. This is an extreme edge case, but i wanted to achieve something else with those mods, and i dont want to break anyone's game save. As always make backups.
Everything can be crafted, looted, and very rarely found at the trader. Includes a multi-part quest line called 'Path of the Samurai'.
Weapons are influenced by "deep cuts" and "flurry of agility", and unlocked by craftingBlades.
The v3. 0 version is the currently maintained mod. There is also a version for alpha 21. 2, and the v1. 0 version might work on older installs as well (i think).
Contains resource files which require (EAC off ?), as well as server / client installation.
