Vanilla Armor Overhaul

Almost 400 Items were changed. Some items that were in Early Access but removed were added back in. Some items that were in the code but weren't in the game were given spawns. Over 250 custom passive tweaks and dozens of spell tweaks.

To start and give players a heads up on the biggest changes.

This mod also implements:

A fix for the broken Shield Bash passive.

Repelling Blast now shows the knockback indicator as of version 1. 12. If your repelling blast is not showing the indicator try toggles the passive off then on again to regain the indicator.

Vow of Enmity can no longer target the caster, as it was an exploit that allowed the user to get advantage on all attack rolls without downsides.

Exotic Material: No longer uncaps the AC Dexterity Cap. Now sets the Cap for that armor at 3 but can be increased to 5 if the wielder has the Medium Armor Master Feat. Reason being that the Exotic Material Passive was very one dimensional and only allowed 2 armors with it to be useful as they had the highest AC with it. Now other Exotic Armors should be overall more useful since they also got slight buffs in other areas to make them more useful in more utility roles.

The Goal of this mod is to bring most of the weaker and lesser used armored and accessories closer to their stronger counter parts.

My criteria for buffs, changes, or nerfs.

I have played through the game on Tactician 4 times. And as such if:

1. I used the armor/item in EVERY playthrough: it got looked at to see if it could be changed or nerfed in a unique way to keep the same feel to the item.

2. I used the item once or twice: It might get a slight change or unique tweak to make the item more versatile.

or 3. I NEVER used the item: It got looked at significantly to see if there was a passive or ability that it could be given to make it worthwhile. A perfect example was the Cerebral Armor in Act 3, by the time you find this armor you had to have passed 4-6 other options that were flat out better. And considering there are only 10 Unique Heavy Armors it was a real shame to never have a use for this armor, as such it got a ton of tweaks and changes.

Now has full compatibility with VitruvianGuar's Shield, Armor, and Mobility mods.

Load this mod AFTER equipment library, but BEFORE Shield,Armor, or Mobility mods.

Recommend a fresh playthrough as some items won't correctly update if downloading.

If you ARE using an existing save note some items may not correctly update and would need to be respawned using an Item spawner.
