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

Description/Details:

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

Gives the items from the Grey Wardens of Ferelden mod stats much closer to those of vanilla DAO gear.

All items can only be equipped by Grey Warden characters. (See the 'Optional files' downloads area for a version without the Grey Wardens-only restriction.) Most items have had the 'No attribute requirements' state removed; the mage armor is the exception to that rule.

--Massive (Grey Warden Commander)--

Stats are the same as vanilla Effort set

+2 Constitution

+15% to healing effects recieved

+1 strength

Set bonus (4 pieces) -10% fatigue

--Heavy (Grey Warden Heavy)--

Stats are similar to vanilla Diligence set

+. 5% combat health regen

+5 willpower

Set bonus (4 pieces) +5 defense

--Medium (Grey Warden Scout)--

+3 dexterity

+25 stamina

Set bonus (3 pieces) -25% fatigue

The hood has +2 cunning, but is not required for set bonus

Note: Changed the metal 'jingle' sound effect associated with the chest to the light armor 'leather' sound asset.

--Light (Grey Warden Arcane)--

. 25% combat health regen

+2 spellpower

+5% lightning damage

Set bonus -10% fatigue + +5 defense

The hood has +1 willpower, but is not required for set bonus.

Notes: Changed the metal 'jingle' sound effect associated with the chest to the light armor 'leather' sound asset.

Set has 'No attribute requirements' as the pieces being light armor puts glass cannon mage characters at a disadvantage, as the strength (or dexterity, if using a light-armor-uses-DEX mod) required to equip the gear at higher tiers is impractical.

The 'Arcane' armor set can only be equipped by mage characters.

--Grey Warden Shield--

Same stats as vanilla Eamon's Shield.

+25 stamina

--Grey Warden Longsword--

Stats similar to vanilla Imperial Edge.

+3% melee critical chance

+2 damage vs. darkspawn

--Grey Warden Longsword (both regular and Dwarf-only swords)--

Stats similar to vanilla Asala

+1 willpower

+1. 5 armor penetration

+2 damage vs. darkspawn

--Grey Warden Longbow--

Stats same as vanilla Marjolaine's Recurve

Rapid aim (0. 3s)
