Rebalances armors and weapons to reduce the quality jump between armors and increase variety
Armors Rebalanced
The armor balance in Morrowind is weird.
For example, the quality jump from the second-best and best light armor is gigantic: the Chitin armor set protects 10 while Glass protects 50.
Similarly, even forgetting the super rare Daedric armors that protects 80, there is quite a jump between Dwemer and Ebody: Dwemer protects 20, while Ebony protects 60.
The expansions — Tribunal, LeFemm armors, and Bloodmoon — improve the situation a bit. But the expansions feel too much like a separate world.
This mod integrates the Quorn armors and rebalances all armors so that Armor Rating, Enchant Level, Health, Weight, and Cost are more equally distributed between worst and best of the various kind of armors.
To reduce the effect “Armor A is better than Armor B” I tried to mix a bit. An armor type might be more protective, but to be easier to break or less enchantable.
In general, going with the theme of an Island of survivalist Dunmer druids the more “natural” materials are more enchantable; but metal is stronger.
The new armors are put in the usual Morrowind Levelled Lists and many NPC also received some selected depending on the class or attributes.
So the armors are properly integrated.
Finally, many points I found weird of the base game has been fixed: the Indoril Armor has greaves, the Gold Armor has all pieces, the Glass Bracer are included in the expected leveled list, it exists a Daedric Tower Shield in the world, if an armor (or helmet) has the word Imperial in the name it counts as uniform, Cinia Urtius is nearby Tel Fyr...
Weapon Rebalance
The weapon rebalance is smaller, and is inspired by Ignis work, but extended to include Tribunal and Bloodmoon. See the original Weapons and Armor Balance Mod.
The main changes are in range, as it was very strange that a dagger, a fist, and a claymore had exactly the same effective reach.
How to Install
