Astarion's Alternative Starter Equipment

🗡 PATCH 8 READY 🗡

Update your favorite vampire's starting wardrobe and starting gear with this new clothing edit! This mod adds these new items, compatible with body types 1, 2, 3, and 4 (humans, elves, half-elves, tiefs, drow):

 🗡 Two body armor variants 🗡 

 🗡 A custom necklace 🗡 

 🗡 Boots 🗡 

 🗡 Custom daggers 🗡

You can choose to download the tutorial chest version OR a replacer option.

The replacer option replaces Astarion's starter armor upon recruitment, or for a new Origin playthrough. Note that it only changes his starting armor for new playthroughs only. I may include a file that completely overwrites his outfit if you wanted to reload an existing save (A note of caution for the complete override: this will replace ALL of the visuals of ALL characters in the game that use his starter shoes appearance)

 Installation

Choose only ONE file to download (replacer, tutorial only, override)

Use BG3 Mod manager to add mod to your load order

To uninstall, place all items back into the tutorial chest, or use MCM Mod Uninstaller

 Item acquisition

Depending on the version you downloaded, Astarion either will or will not start with his new armor. In addition, all items are always available in the tutorial chest. They are also sold by most equipment vendors in every act.

Compatibility

Should work for every patch, including patch 6 and below

This mod could not be possible without KinntheGreen's help showing me the basics of modding, and Moxi's overall help with modding. Love you guys <3

This could also not be possible without the continued support of the community.
