📋 About This Mod

This is a simple mod to buff the AC of the Luminous Armor piece found in the Underdark, Selunite Outpost. The divine properties of this piece felt appropriate for my paladin in my own playthrough, but AC felt like too much of a drawback to standard +2 heavy pieces I had already looted.

This is a replacer mod, so you shouldn't have to worry about hunting it down from a specific container/merchant or using a spawn script :)

I have made the following changes to the item:

- changed from medium to heavy armour class

- +2 dex bonus removed

- disadvantage on stealth checks added

- AC changed from 15 to 18

- Icon and appearance changed from BP+1 to splint armour to better fit the stat changes

I use this mod in my own playthrough and have experienced no bugs or issues however this is my first BG3 mod - if you encounter any issues, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix them!
