📋 About This Mod
NPR's Original Skyrim page: Shanoa Armor
CBBE only: But people are saying it works fine with UNP.
Changes: Materials to make armor was just lots of Vampire Dust, I changed all that where it would make more sense as well as added it to a specific category, so it is under "Steel"
Also added Tempering so you can improve the armor. Couldn't find those options in Creation Kit for original armor.
Other R18 Ports I've done: Ritter Armor Red and Gold Heilige Mutter Armor Red and Black
This is a CBBE-only port of NPR's Shanoa Armor for Skyrim Special Edition, with optimized NIF files and altered crafting ingredients plus added tempering support. It's a straightforward armor mod for players who want this specific outfit, with a solid community following (2,037 endorsements).
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 2,037 endorsements and over 51k downloads.
- Optimized NIF files for SSE means better performance and stability.
- Tempering added, so you can upgrade the armor at a grindstone.
⚠️ Cons
- CBBE only – if you use UNP or other body replacers, this won't fit.
- Last updated in 2016, so it's been a while – might have compatibility issues with newer mods.
- No custom textures or meshes beyond the port, so it's basically the original armor with tweaks.
For Skyrim SE players who use CBBE and want a stylish, lore-friendly-ish armor with crafting and tempering. Skip if you're on UNP or want a more extensive armor overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have CBBE installed, otherwise the armor will be invisible or cause crashes.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install – it's a simple drop-in, but managing load order is easier with a manager.
- If you're on Skyrim SE, double-check that you're not using the old Skyrim version of the mod – this is specifically for SSE.
