📋 About This Mod
I have two different patches one for if you're playing with more mods or tougher than vanilla troops trees such as warlords battlefields. I play this one so I'll know more about the armor values and I haven't played with Vanilla Bannerlord troops for 2 years, still the top body armor is only 10 more body armor points than the top armor in vanilla armors in rbm.
The 2nd one I based off the vanilla RBM armors so at most the top armors in the mod will be equal to the top vanilla armor.
Keep in mind both versions go by era so the top armor in the 12th or the 16th will still be tier 6 armor. Noble armor will always be higher quality than non noble armors. if anything is too weak or strong feel free to lmk, there's lots of armors so keeping up can be difficult.
Also make sure to keep a backup of your items.xml file in case you ever stop using RBM.
Imporant and Installation:
Make sure you have the armor mod below RBM for now. I'm planning to put out a version like open source armoury that you can put below mod in the load order, but think I'll wait for the next update.
To install the mod you can rather drag it into you modules and it should overwrite the items file otherwise you can put the items.xml into expanded armourys module data file.
