📋 About This Mod
Area Effect Arrows Integrated
Description
This mod is an alternative to the official plugin Area Effect Arrows that spreads out the new projectiles around the game world rather than just dumping them all in one shop.
There's no longer a new shop in Vivec. Instead, AEA's new projectiles are distributed between five merchants: Uulernil (Pelagiad), Thorek (Balmora), Aryne Telnim (Tel Aruhn), Llether Vari (Ald-ruhn), and Alusaron (Vivec). They're also added to a few marksman-related leveled lists.
Also included is an integrated version of BTB's AEA derivative Area Effect Projectiles, as well as a "PAR Edit" version that, like in BTB's mod, contains the changes made by Ghostnull's Particle Arrow Replacer.
Installation
Use a mod management tool such as Wrye Mash, or just copy the plugin of your choice to your Data Files directory and select it in the Morrowind Launcher. Enable only one of the included plugins.
Requirements
This mod is a replacement for the original Area Effect Arrows/Projectiles. You don't need any other version of AEA/AEP with this mod.
If you use the "PAR Edit" version of AEP Integrated, you don't need the original Particle Arrow Replacer plugin, but you do still need the meshes included in PAR.

Usage
If you use this for anything you should credit Bethesda, BTB and/or Ghostnull.
This mod reworks the official Area Effect Arrows plugin by distributing explosive arrows and bolts throughout the game world instead of concentrating them in one shop. It also integrates BTB's Area Effect Projectiles, offering a more immersive and balanced way to acquire these powerful ammunition types. Ideal for players who want the official content without the convenience of a single vendor.
