📋 About This Mod

===>>> Heavy Skaal Armor <<<=== ----> presented by DVAted <---- Created by the extremely talented modeller TUMBAJAMBA GUYS IF YOU LIKE THIS MOD AND OUR WORK PLZ ENDORSE AND HELP US TO GET ON HOT FILES. THX. Detailed Description: Dragonborn DLC Required! dEhM2qwtHFQ Tvdgs1nuBvc Inspired by the light-weight Skaal armor set (which has now also been made craftable and temperable at any forge) this mod pack uses vanilla assets to create an outfit suitable for those of you who like to wear Heavy armor and want to feel like a walking tank through the cold mountains of Tamriel. Also, to lighten your load, we\'ve added a new lore-friendly backpack model with a +60 carry weight enchantment. DVAted\'s suggestion of building the Elder Scrolls\' equivalent armor of a Juggernaut\'s (heavy weapons specialist) attire sparked enough interest to inspire tumbajamba to act upon it. Together we\'ve discussed each shape of the uniquely badass Heavy Boots, Gauntlets, Cuirass and 2 (yes: TWO) Helmet variations for the very peculiar tastes of each of you. In our opinion we have achieved the goal of adapting a heavy winter coat to a heavier iron-plated armor that feels both epic and lore-friendly. Also, for the sheer fun of it, we\'ve added a boss-type character, Juggernaut, in the Highpoint Tower tunnel on Solstheim, in the Ashlands. If he\'s not in the tunnel, you will probably find him wandering North - North-West or West of Highpoint Tower, stepping over some Ash Spawn with his large boots. !!!Be careful: he is high level, has a great deal of health and is very aggressive!!! But he\'s not overpowered, he actually doesn\'t do much damage with his iron mace :) This was designed for a nice long duel that you will remember, not for a quick and easy execution of either the NPC or, most frustratingly, of you. He has a short background story in a letter in his inventory, to make the whole setup (and origin of the armor) as lore-friendly and believable as possible. For these reasons he will not respawn. Once you kill him he\'s dead and will only respawn if you uninstall the mod and install it again on a clean save. _________________ _________________ Development: The main armor cuirass of this mod is a modified Skaal coat plated with iron armor reinforcements. The boots and gloves are made of bear-fur and iron armor plates, while the helmet itself is a modified iron helmet with extra plating details and horker tusks. The crafting ingredients are according to the source material, although we\'ve included snow fox and wolf pelts in for diversity\'s sake. As of v. 2. 0 there is now a custom armor model for female characters, based on the female Skaal coat! However, we refuse to take requests for any \"revealing\", \"bouncing boobs\" or \"skimpy\" versions. Thank you for understanding. All armors (the original light Skaal outfit and the new Heavy Skaal armor set) can be crafte
