📋 About This Mod
Made adjustments to the armor ratings to make this armor truly end of game. - competitive to (my favorite mod) Raider Overhaul's "Raider Armor Buff" Patch.
*Added new alternative version with Radiation Resist for those of you that don't use Power Armor but still want some of the benefits.
- []Doubles the Vanilla values - Which makes from the neck down 1 or 2 points higher the BUFFED Dreadnaught []Modifies Existing armor (you still have to find it - for now) []Requires Far Harbor (for now - Learning Nifscope and Blender, will eventually release my own take on this armor)
- Does not add anything to the game (for now - Looking into making my own take - but as power armor) - unless you bros beat me too it, then more power to you!
