📋 About This Mod
Unleveled Loot
This mod is still a work in progress. The odds of material types will probably need a lot of tweaking as I get feedback.
Basic Premise:
Material drop chances are static across all player levels. The chances are affected by the Luck attribute and location.
Higher tier armors are made rarer. Daedric and Orcish to the point of generally needing a lot of luck.
Shop stock is based on shop quality. Shops generally have Steel with the occasional silver, elven and dwarven.. Low-quality shops have Iron. Higher quality shops might have Mithril, Adamantium and Ebony.
Daedras will have a small luck-based chance of dropping one daedric item.
Orsinium and Orc dungeons will have a slightly increased chance of orcish.
Gold piles are de-scaled, which means enemies will not drop increasingly larger gold piles as you level up.
Optional Material Switching:
This mod now also allows you to change what material types drop.
The way this works is that you can set what material actually drops whenever a material is produced by the mod.
So, for example, you can set that each time Elvish weapons/armor should drop, Steel weapons/armor drops instead.
Unleveled Loot removes level scaling from weapon and armor generation in Skyrim, and also removes material types from the drop table. This means loot is no longer tied to your character level, offering a more unpredictable and challenging experience. With 474 endorsements and 30,584 downloads, it's a popular choice for players seeking a different loot dynamic.
