📋 About This Mod

Warrior Armour for the Warden Contact
For frosty or daimod. All the possible warden contacts are warriors and yet wear rogue warden armour, this mod amends that so that they wear the warrior warden armour instead.

The frosty version is a mesh replacement NOT a bundle edit, so should be compatible with bundle edit mods.

The daimod version is a bundle edit but I think the only bundle edit mods for DAIMM were all made by me so there shouldn't be too many conflicts. It should work fine with my modded hair in DLCs mod and my hair for Abelas mod as those don't edit the same areas. The only DAIMM bundle mod it used to conflict with was my helmetless Rylen with hair mod if you used anything other than the bundle free hair swaps for him. However, in version 2 of the daimod for this armour mod, I have now also included the same bundle that Rylen's hair uses, so now DAIMM versions can be used with my Rylen mod as long as you follow these steps:

1) Open up dai mod manager

2) Left click on the rogue to warrior grey warden mod in the DAIMM mods list (which is this mod)

3) Click the down arrow at the bottom corner of the list until this mod is underneath the Rylen hair mod, that way it will override it with all the necessary bundles and they now should work together.

I believe you have to do that every time you merge, unless you're using the bundle free versions of my hair for Rylen mod which don't edit any bundles anyway so that's unnecessary.

The rogue armour that the warden contacts originally wore I don't believe is worn by any notable characters and is relatively unique to them I think, I saw a few references to the armour by some unnamed NPCs in the mod maker, but, seeing as they were unnamed and had random generic heads I believe these people weren't of importance, so possibly a random rogue extra here and there might now be wearing warrior armour, but I don't believe it should affect many other wardens besides the warden contact as I think most rogue grey wardens use a different armour to the one I replaced. There just might be a few exceptions.

There is no helmet included.

  • This mod only changes warrior warden contacts, so don't expect it to affect other NPCs or armor types.
