📋 About This Mod
Thanks to Seb263 for the excellent Sanguine Symphony mod, it's good, but I didn't like the heavy armor impact sounds, so I replaced them with realistic plate armor sounds. You can hear these sounds in videos of historical knightly duels on YouTube.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 141 endorsements and over 15k downloads.
- Brings authentic historical armor sounds to combat, a big immersion win.
- Simple audio swap—no new mechanics to learn, just better feedback.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects heavy armor sounds; light armor and other impacts remain unchanged.
- Requires Sanguine Symphony as a base, so it's useless if you don't run that mod.
- Compatibility risk with other sound overhauls that touch armor impacts—load order matters.
For players who already use Sanguine Symphony and want more realistic combat audio. If you're a history buff or immersion junkie, this is a must-have. Skip if you don't use Sanguine Symphony or prefer stylized sound effects.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Sanguine Symphony is installed first, then drop this mod's files into your mod manager.
- If you use other sound mods, put this one lower in your load order so its sounds take priority.
- Test in a combat scenario to hear the difference—hit a heavy armor enemy or wear heavy armor yourself.
