📋 About This Mod

Update 2: all textures reworked, metal parts made more shiny, leather made darker, more colored cloth parts added. Update 1: now with specular maps fixed - that means no annoying purple glow on metal parts. Mage\'s champion armor looks great but I never liked the dirty gray color of the fur. So I\'ve made these simple retextures. I\'ve also uploaded a version with blue cloth and white fur. To install: unpack the archive and place its content into your BioWare\\Dragon Age 2\\packages\\core\\override folder.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 428 endorsements and nearly 9,500 downloads.
  • Gives you three color choices to match your mage's style.
  • Fixes the specular map, making the armor look better in-game.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2011 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or DLCs.
  • Only affects the Champion Mage Armor, so it's a niche mod for a single armor set.
  • No screenshots or detailed instructions provided, so you're flying blind on the exact look.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love the Champion Mage Armor and want to personalize it with different fur colors. If you're a mage character and want a quick visual tweak without overhauling the whole game, this is for you. Skip if you're playing a non-mage or want more extensive armor customization.
