📋 About This Mod

I made these little sets for my Hawkes in anticipation for Legacy. I've been enjoying them a lot on my current playthrough, maybe someone out there will get a kick out of using them as well. ;)

=========================

=========================

This mod adds two new sets of equipment to the game, the Ancestral Robes and Armor.

The two sets are available separately for convenience.

A mage, rogue and warrior version are available for each set, all with custom, evolving stats. (Both the armor and the robes share identical stats.)

=========================

1. 0 - Initial Release. 1. 0 - As per request, a finery swap is now available for the ancestral robes. 1. 1 - Finery Swap update: A gloved version is now available to FemHawke. 1. 0a - Armor Update: Minor mesh edits, the shoulderplate was on the wrong side, this is now fixed + Fixed a seam on the female version.

  • Simple premise: two new armor sets to mix into your playthrough.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2011, so it's old and may not be compatible with newer mods or patches.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's an older mod, check if you're using any mod managers that might need a manual install instead.
  • If you're using other armor mods, be aware that they might conflict if they edit the same item lists.
  • Look up the mod on forums or YouTube to see what the armor actually looks like before installing.
