📋 About This Mod
Roleplay & Realism: Items
, by Hazelnut and Ralzar(was called "Loot Realism" up to version 0. 2, but is now re-branded to make the link to Roleplay & Realism clearer)
Description
This mod pack contains optional modules to enhance roleplay and realism for Daggerfall Unity gameplay, specifically focussing on items and loot. Enable / disable the modules in the mod settings. It's intended to be used in conjunction with the main Roleplay & Realism mod pack, and is separate only because the item stat changes (weight & price) cannot be made as an optional module. Hence this separate package allows players to decide if they want the item stat changes or not by enabling or disabling this entire mod. Any modules that rely on these item changes are in this pack and are configurable in settings.
This aim of this mod is to refine items and loot in DFU to be a little more realistic, both in what you find on bodies and in loot piles, as well as the stats & cost of some existing items. It is not a complete reworking or redesign of the item and loot systems of Daggerfall or anything like that, however it does make some light touch rebalancing of weapons to give more valid options.
Current modules:
-
[]Item rebalance (can only be disabled by disabling the entire pack)
[
]Loot Rebalance[]Bandaging
[]Condition Based Prices
[]Realistic Enemy Equipment
[]Skill Based Starting Equipment
[]Skill Based Starting Spells
[]Refined Weapon Balance
[]New Weapons (Archers Axe & Light Flail)
[]New Light and Medium Armor sets (Leather & Mail armor sets)
[]Alchemist stores stock potions
Item Rebalance
Note that this module cannot be disabled without disabling the entire mod. Several items have had stats and prices adjusted.
-
[]Price of a Horse or a Wagon has been substantially increased. Combined with the gold drop chances you will have to work a bit for that horse or cart now.
[]Many small items, like parchments and arrows, had weirdly high weight numbers. This has been adjusted down to something more reasonable.
[]Weapon max conditions have been refined. Main effect is bows are a little less fragile.
[]Dai-Katana weight increased to 5. 5.
[]Katana weight increased to 3. 5
[]Mace weight increased to 6
[]Warhammer weight increased to 8. 5
[]Japanese weapons are more fragile, and rarer. (especially Dai-Katanas)
[]Orcs have an 80% chance of any high tier material equipment being Orcish
Loot Rebalance
[*]Dungeon Loot Piles made more appropriate. Caves, Mines and Nests: Armor, some Weapons. Castles: High
