📋 About This Mod
Meteoric Steel Mail by Cethegus A Plugin for TES3 Morrowind 1. Requirements 2. Information 3. Issues 4. Credits and Thanks 5. Terms of use 6. Contact Read all of this text, it contains important information! 1. Requirements This plugin requires Morrowind and Bloodmoon (because of the location and the scripting functions) installed. It is highly recommended to have Better Bodies ( http://www.psychodogstudios.net/betterbodies/ ) installed too. In fact this whole plugin is geared towards beeing played with BB. Meteroric Steel Mail is not dependant on this plugin, so you could play it without it, if you really have to do so. Should be compatible with Smoother Bodies too, I haven\'t tested it though. 2. Information This plugin adds Elin\'s House just behind (roughly North of) Fort Frostmoth. Elin will sell rare Armor and Weapons, made of Meteoric Steel. They offer good protection/attack while beeing light and comfortable to wear/wield. There are rumors that it\'s inert Magic makes Meteoric Iron such a good base to make highly protective and light armor. Yet, up to this day noone was able to put enchantments on this metal. Here\'s a small table with all data for the Meteoric Set: Weight AR Health Value Boots 12 70 700 250000 Cuirass 18 70 2500 300000 Gauntlets 3 70 450 250000 Pauldrons 6 70 700 250000 \'Shield\' 7 70 3000 200000 Sword 25 -- 3000 250000 Bow 25 -- 3000 250000 This plugin features an offhand shortsword (\'dual wield\') and sheathed swords. After you spent this insane amount of gold to purchase the armor, at least the swordbelt is for free (pick it up from the chest). If you equip this belt, a message box appears and lets you choose to either strap the swords on the back (sheating) or use them as weapons. I recommend assigning one quick-slot to it, so you can always and quickly utilize those options. *** 3. Issues worth mentioning / a pseudo-FAQ Is this plugin clean? Yes, it was cleaned with Morrowind Enchanted Editor from all GMST and other unwanted data the CS tends to include sometimes. Why is the armor so expensive? Hey, it\'s some really rare Metal we speak of here, you don\'t honestly believe it\'s getting sold for the price of a bread and a silver candlestick, eh? This plugin is meant for high-level players, who spent some time already exploring the world, testing some armor etc. Damn, I can\'t afford this stuff! I recommend using plugins like IndyBank and/or Havish. In both you will find banks, which will easily increase your money. In my current game I have around 40 Mill. Would be sufficient to equip a small army of companions with Meteoric Steel. Also, don\'t sell your stuff to talking crabs... When I put on the cuirass, it\'s invisible!? This is because the whole set of armor was designed for the female body. I won\'t waste your time with technical mumbo-
