Various changes to the swords in the game.

-- Description --

Swords are my preferred 1h melee weapon in the game. I will use swords even when they are lower damage or just generally weaker than other found or crafted weapons. This doesn't typically bother me, as I play on casual, but I did want to provide some help for others in my predicament. Unfortunately, 1h swords in DAI are typically lower damage than most 1h axes, so it really gives the feeling as if you are gimping yourself if you don't use a higher weapon.

This is a single mod page for the various sword edits I will be releasing.


01 Longsword of the Dragon, from the Flames of the Inquisition DLC pack. (This DLC is required to craft the weapons.)
This is my favorite model of sword in the entire game. The T1 version from the chest is just fine as a starting weapon. The T2 crafted version is also fine in base stats, but has some errors with its listing in the crafting menu. The T3 crafted version is weaker compared to other crafted swords, in addition to having the same errors in the crafting menu.

There are some options here.
* A very minor edit of the T2 sword to correct the errors in the crafting menu. This isn't necessary, except for those folks who are bothered by such things.
* A similar minor edit of the T3 sword to correct the errors in the crafting menu. Again, also not necessary, unless it is bothersome.

There are two additional options for the T3 sword.
* This has the crafting menu fixes, PLUS a damage increase to bring it in line with the Masterwork Tevinter Longsword, the highest non-DLC crafted sword in the game.
* This is an additional personal edit I made for myself. Normally, the T2 and T3 versions have different materials, so they wind up having different bonus stats. I prefer to use the same thing throughout the game, only upgraded as time goes on, so I changed the materials of the T3 version to be more in line with the T2. The damage increase is also present.

The damage increase is NOT meant to be overpowered, simply to bring it in line with similar powerful swords so that it stays useful for the entire game.

Use only ONE of the T3 version.


-- Notes --
One important note about using any of the mods with damage increases or materials changes. One you craft the weapon, that weapon is baked into your game. If you need to, for whatever reason, you can remove the mod and the weapon will remain as it was crafted.
