📋 About This Mod

Once upon a time... (again)

There was a rat named Neil who had one dream: to bang out the tunes for all to hear. Neil, a small rat with a big dream, has been an icon of barding since 2006, and this SECOND collection is in honor of our ... not-so-fuzzy friend.

Gear for your Bard of any race and body type, all fully dyeable.

This is a completely NEW and SEPARATE mod from the first bard gear set!

All pieces scale with level as explained in each piece's description.

All skills will show from level 1, but they won’t work until the appropriate level. Make sure to un-equip and re-equip to activate the stat bonuses!

Ch-ch-changes

  • []Restored the Selunite "short skirt" look for body type 1 and femme gith

    []Added 3 new outfits (with camp versions)

    []Added a "no-clip" version of the skimpy tunic designed to be worn with underwear

    []Added 2 pairs of gloves

    []Added 3 hats, including The Hat (with camp version)

    []Fixed some issues with camp clothes

    []Tweaked the "crop top" look

    []Updated for Patch 8

    A few important things to keep in mind

    • []Look 2, the robe: Some of the gloves allow the sleeves to clip through. Sometimes it looks kinda cool, but be aware.

      []Look 4, strappy Myrkul top: Sometimes nips show a little. This style wasn't available at all for Gnomes or Dragonborn

      []Look 5, skirt: Body type 1 Elves (all), humans, Tieflings, and Gith have the "Selune" style top. Every other femme-coded body type has the top shown on the Tiefling and the Halfling in the pics.

      []Look 6, the skimpy top: A look restored from Vol 1! I fixed the clipping issues, but still beware of side boob nip slips.

      []You’ll need to remove Tav’s bra for bra-style tops, unless you want it to clip through. It worked for Regina George, so you do you.

      []Un-equip and re-equip at the appropriate levels to ensure stat bonuses are working correctly.

      Set includes

      • []9 armors!

        []9 gloves!

        []5 boots!

        []5 cloaks!

        []7 hats!

        []Camp clothes!

        All for the ultimate barding experience. Fully dyeable, and made to fit all body types (with the exceptions explained above).

        Available in the tutorial chest, or you can buy it from Dammon in act 1, the bugbear at Moonrise in act 2, or Popper in act 3. If you’ve already visited one (or more) of these merchants before you install the mod, it won’t show up in their inventory until after a long rest or two. Or three.
