📋 About This Mod

Description

New Dwarven armor set with new visuals and new daggers, swords and shields. Custom visuals work with dwarf male. Other races will have a guardian set. Shields will obviously work for everyone. Helmet will also work for female body 1 and male body 2.

There's two rarity tiers (rare and legendary). It's a full set; with torso, helmet, gloves, boots and cloak (gear). Also camp clothes (Camp clothes are just the armor without helmet and stats).

The whole set, weapons and the shields can be dye (except a couple of glowing bits).

Location

Both sets are found as loot in the world. All parts can be found together:

-Rare set: Looted from a Gilded Chest at the end of the trapped bridge in Grymforge. Same one with the Protecty Sparkswall. (Also same one with the Kingsguard Battleaxe if you use my Dwarven Battleaxes mod).

-Legendary: Looted from High Security Vault 8 in The Counting House.

The whole sets will be inside a chest inside their containers. As always you can use Elven Weaponry - Tutorial Chest if you want the items ASAP.

The weapons have two rarity tiers, rare and very rare. Rare weapons aren't unique neither they have a fixed place to find them. You can find the randomly as loot or for sale on merchants. They won't start apparing until level 7.

The very rare weapons are unique and can be found in the world:

-Alley Knife (Very Rare Dagger): Alchemy chest in The Waning Moon.

-Spiteful Broadsword (Very Rare Broadsword): Found inside a chest at the back end of the House of Healing. Same one with the Poisoner's Gloves.

-Kingsguard Greatsword (Very Rare Greatsword): Looted from High Security Vault 8 in The Counting House. In the same chest with this mod armor set.

Installation

BG3 Mod Manager is recommended.

Use either the Vortex Mod Manager or the BG3 Mod Manager and install this mod.

Make sure you deploy your mods if using Vortex or export the mod list if using BG3 Mod Manager.

For Update just overwrite old version pak with the new one. If you want to be 100% sure everything goes smoothly do the following:

-Remove equiped items from this mod from your characters (you can leave them in the inventory, no need to store them), save your game and exit.

-Install the new version (just overwrite old one).

-Load, you can reequip your items as you wish.

As I said, nothing of this should be needed, I update like hundreds of times while testing just overwritten the old file. But the ab
