📋 About This Mod
Geralt's Armor Now Available Here!
Update 03/11/2012: Further work on this mod has been put on hold as I don't have the time at the moment to keep it maintained and updated. It's still not perfect but I think it is feature complete enough for some people to get enjoyment out of it. Thanks to you all for your support.
I freely admit I was giddy as a schoolgirl after finding L0rd0fWar's Iorveth Armor, but I was a little disappointed that it was classified as cloth and so had all the defensive properties of wet paper. I then set about figuring out how to turn it into a light armor set. Several hours, lots of confused fumbling and numerous different versions later, I give you Iorveth Light Armor:
Features
- Standalone mod that doesn't replace any existing NPC armor.
- Works with both male/female characters.
- Benefits from all Light Armor perks: Agile Defender, Custom Fit etc.
- Craftable from a forge.
- Fully improvable on a workbench.
- Two different sets of Scoia'tael Armor: a basic un-enchanted version and an upgraded version complete with enchants.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Installation:
1. Just drop the .esp file, textures and meshes folders into your skyrim/data folder. Merge folders if prompted.
2. Make sure the plugin is enabled by using NMM or the Data Files option in the Skyrim Launcher.

How to get the armor:
Now available at the forge, under the MISC tab (requires the Steel Smithing perk):
Un-enchanted:
Scoia'tael Commando Boots Scoia'tael Commando Gloves Scoia'tael Commando Bandana Scoia'tael Commando Armor
Scoia'tael Captain's Boots (Muffled Movement) Scoia'tael Captain's Gloves (x2 Sneak attack with 1H weapons) Scoia'tael Captain's Bandana (+20% bow damage) Scoia'tael Captain's Armor (+12% Barter / +12% 1H weapon damage)
or, if you can't be bothered to gather all the materials, you can add the items via the console:
1. Open the console with the `(tilde) key. 2. Type "help scoia 4" (without quotes).
This mod adds a light armor variant of Iorveth's iconic armor from The Witcher 2, letting players wear the stylish outfit without the heavy armor penalties. With nearly 2,000 endorsements and over 46,000 downloads, it's a popular choice for fans of the character. Last updated in 2012, it remains a simple, cosmetic addition for those seeking a lighter look.

✅ Pros

For Witcher 2 players who love Iorveth's style but prefer light armor gameplay. If you're a fan of the character and want to cosplay as him without the heavy armor downsides, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for new armor models or gameplay changes—this is purely a weight class swap.
