Stronger Claymores
DESCRIPTION
Stronger Claymores
Are you an avid oversized sword enjoyer?
Do you think this game making you deal half the dps of single handed sword is absurd?
Yeah, so I made claymores stronger!
What exactly does this mod do:
Increases all claymore's damage by 1. 25x
(vanilla is usually around 1. 25x equivalent longswords, now its about 1. 5x)

INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS
AFAIK Vortex should work correctly now, if you still have issues install manually as outlined below
Manual Installation:
Extract the zipped folder into the MAIN GAME FOLDER
Then make sure that your 'Plugins.txt' has the 'StrongerClaymores.esp' added at the end of the list
Your main game folder will be:
e.g. Steam:
YourDriveLetter:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\
for GamePass its more like:
YourDriveLetter:\XboxGames\The Elder Scrolls IV- Oblivion Remastered\Content\
Your Plugins.txt file in the:
Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data
Should look similar to this (StrongerClaymores and any other ESP mods must be added at the end):
Oblivion.esm
DLCBattlehornCastle.esp
DLCFrostcrag.esp
DLCHorseArmor.esp
DLCMehrunesRazor.esp
DLCOrrery.esp
DLCShiveringIsles.esp
DLCSpellTomes.esp

Q: Is this relatively balanced?
A: I'd say so; the longswords still have slightly higher dps, but single hit is quite strong with claymores now while keeping the 30% increased reach.
Q: Does this also include the shadowrend?
