📋 About This Mod

The idea came from the insatiable thirst for satisfaction of getting a cool armor mod dropped from a boss, RPG style.

Most cool armor mods are obtainable by crafting/chests/AIM. Why not make a boss-level NPC that drops said armor? lets go!

This mod basically adds a boss in the world that wears mod armor. Beat the boss, and you get the armor(and  a spell). Simple as that.

REQUIREMENT

BDOR Oblivion(SE Version)

(it requires HDT-SMP/FSMP, has 3BA bodyslide, and different models between heavy and light armor)

RECOMMENDED(Optional)

TrueHUD - for Boss BAR

Any Combat enhancement mod of your choice that makes combat better

INSTALLATION

Load order? let LOOT decide it. Should be load early

LOCATION

South of Serpent Stone, See image

The Bosses are called T'Are-Ze, a heavy armored bound sword user and Heart-Breaker, a light armored mage with a shock spell in her hands.

The couple is wearing a full set of Oblivion armor, which they will drop upon death. They also drops some bound spells and a new Bound Shield spell.

Abilities and Spells:

T'Are-Ze has spellblade-focused perks, while Heart-Breaker is focused on destruction and restoration.

T'Are-Ze also has something in his sleeve if you hurt him enough.

T'Are-Ze will use vanilla animation unless you have animation replacer for NPC-sword user

I don't provide animation in the file, but I already prepared the necessary folder and condition file for it. Only if you use MCO/SCAR/DAR(OAR)

Recommended: Elden Rim Moveset (the one I use in the showcase video)

Copy all the .hkx from Elden Rim dw sword folder to this mod folder, there should be folder 7700027, drop all the .hkx there.

DON'T copy _condition.txt! only .hkx files!

If you want other animation pack, make sure it's already SCAR patched, otherwise the boss won't use combo

2 Difficulties, both of them are intended for high level players

  • []Normal: Level 30 minimum, max 100(scaling with Player)

    []Dovahkiin and Friends Must Die: level 50 minimum, max 100(also scaling), higher HP offset

coc DoomstoneNorthernCoast01 and go south to quicktest them.
