📋 About This Mod

Four collections of armor pieces using Kaidan Alenko's and T'Soni's  Armor.

Helmet and torso pieces only. Requires a mod such as my Empress' Clothes (LE3) to provide invisible armor pieces for the shoulders, arms and legs. IVAP for LE3 or EGM Armors for LE3 will also provide invisible armor pieces.

I've listed my Headgear Collection (LE3) as a requirement though this mod will work without it. The headgear collection provides visors and breather masks players will most likely want to use with the armor pieces. I separated out the visors and masks from this mod to reduce duplicate headgear pieces. I'll be updating my Ash and Vega Armor Collection (LE3) to rely on my headgear mod as well as add the OP stats set.

A couple of interesting notes:

  • []Kaidan's helmets match Vega's armor in my Ash and Vega Armor Collection (LE3).

    []I was able to create FemShep versions of Kaidan's helmets by simply applying the materials and textures to the female N7 Breather helmet. This is what the game does for many of the helmets using the N7 and N7 Breather helmet models.

  • Headgear from my Buffed Armory (LE3) mod complement this mod.

    Each collection provides four sets of stats to choose from:

    Power (P)

    Helm: +10% to power damage, power recharge speed, and shields

    Torso: +10% to power damage, power recharge speed, and shields

    Weapon (W)

    Helm: +10% to weapon damage, headshot damage, and shields

    Torso: +10% to weapon damage, headshot damage, and shields

    Shields and Health (SH)

    Helm: +10% to health, shields, and shield regen speed

    Torso:  +10% to health, shields, and shield regen speed

    Overpowered (OP)

    Helm: +10% to all stats

    Torso: +10% to all stats

    The armor pieces are available as soon as you have access to the Normandy's armory and as early as the Mars mission if you are using EGM.

    All of the helmets are flagged as breathers. If you want to equip the helmets for their stats but hide them, EGM provides a helmet toggle feature.

    Installation

    The player may install individual sets or all four.

    Use ME3Tweaks Mod Manager to install. Drag and drop the zip file to the manager and install (or import, then 'Apply Mod'). Importing mods has a couple of benefits including the ability to update mods directly from the Mod Manager.

    Uninstallation

    In ME3Tweaks Mod Manager, tap the "Manage Target" button on the upper right. Make sure the edition of the game you are targeting is selected in the drop-down list positioned on top of the tabs. Select this mod and tap disable or delete as appropriate.
