 They each focus on one of the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats. So 7 stat variations of the +5 bonus* For your Power Armor.

The game disables statted gear when you get in Power Armor this means wearing armor can be worse.
The solution, based on the S.P.E.C.I.A.L.Costumes base, the way to personalize your Armor.

7 craftable Rings that you can use as an EXTRA piece on all
Power Armor Frames to customize the armor to your build.
Every ring covers a different stat in S.P.E.C.I.A.L.


Each ring gives a boost to your stat of choice*

Why Power Armor rings***?

* All S.P.E.C.I.A.L. gear is ment to enhance, not break Vanilla. The items stay our balance and have hardcoded EITM Enchants
** Juggernaut is classified as a Bonus series item. So not for purists, note: below level 51/55 the regular rings scale in this category too.
*** The character in this vid has 16 Agility in full gear at level 55, In PA 11 without PA ring. The 13Agl armor in the gif is just to make it easy to see.

FAQ:



What is S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Costumes bonus items?

We release items flaged as Bonus so purists know it contains an item that scales (slightly) or uses legendary classed ench.
Since we want to give people the freedom to play the way they want we label those items seperately. So they know it is above vanilla.
The items released under Bonus are non-gamebreaking and tested to fall within S.P.E.C.I.A.L.Costumes guidelines.
This means by our Lore go-to guy approved, and no more then x percent above vanilla vallues to ensure Fallout4 feels like it should.  


What is S.P.E.C.I.A.L. and why havent I heared from you?


We are Coffee Cats, a 2 man code team and SirenMel who does the artwork and creative input, and S.P.E.C.I.A.L.Costumes is our first official mod. 
Everything was playtested and we made balance guidelines ourself based around our years of Fallout experience.
We both have well over 200 hours on the clock in Fallout 4 alone and that is without mod structure tests.
I have played Fallout since FO1, Pyro played it since FO2 and we want to make sure that 
the S.P.E.C.I.A.L.Costumes named releases feel right in the Fallout universe.
The mod has been on my mind for a while so i made v1.00 for my use.
We enjoyed it so much we decided to release it on Nexus.
SirenMel is the creative mind who motivated me 
to start this mod and make it work.


You are witnessing the early stages of a new
mod team waiting for CK, eager to
enhance your playthrough.

So feel free to provide Feedback :)


Do I need the main Costumes download for rings? / Do I need S.P.A.R. for the mainpack?

No,
All our packs can be used as standalone. 
(increases synergy most when combined with our Costumes)


I love the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Juggernaut any word on your Character Costumes getting this too?

In the future yes, Published under S.P.E.C.I.A.L.Costumes Bonus as standalone packs 
(bonus lore pack preview can be found in the main NMM download).

For now we want to keep our S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Costumes around vanilla.
The way we have our mod allows full range of customisation for the user.
The craftsystem is rock solid and items created have unique REFID's. 
All 3rd party mods overwrites are enabled for all but the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats.


My Costume / items wish is not in the list, why not / Can you add....?

We are working to add all the costumes and special items in the game. This is a project and early stage. 
Feel free to drop a request so we can put it on the priority list
