📋 About This Mod
Replaces the breastplate armour models (including Luminous Armour) for body type 1.
Only for Elf/Drow/Half-Elf/Tiefling/Human body type 1. Appearance is unchanged for all other body types.
This mod does not add any new armours.
Included in this mod is a fix for the mesh that replaces Breastplate +2, as by default there is a visible neck hole.
If you want to see more of this armour, Shadowheart's New Fit replaces her starting armour with the Breastplate model used here.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Decent community support (75 endorsements) for a niche cosmetic mod.
- 2,754 downloads show it's been tried by a fair number of players.
- Recently updated (May 2025), so likely compatible with current game version.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a model replacer, make sure you back up the original files if you manually replace them, so you can revert if you don't like the look.
- Check if the mod is compatible with your game version — last update was May 2025, so if you're on a newer patch, test it early.
- If you use a mod manager, try installing through it to avoid manual file conflicts.
