1. DESCRIPTION
===============

After doing some work on Galerion's Natural leveling, I had received a request to update one of his other mods- Galerion's Unarmored Acrobatics (http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=5067), which uses the players acrobatic skill as an unarmored skill. It's a very good mod in which while unarmored and being hit upon from an npc your acrobatic skill will rise just like your heavy or light armored skill would. And, just like those skills, as your acrobatic (unarmored) skill rises so does your defense while being unarmored. It's a brilliant mod but is capped at lvl 100. So, upon request I have made it (as I call it) Uncapper compatible- meant to be used with something like Elys's Uncapper.

The mod is meant to be useful for the Conan/ monk/ mage/ martial artist/ naked lunatic styled players. With that in mind, as well as uncapping the mod, I've added a few worthwhile buffs that would make sense for those whose body has toughened through unarmored combat. Note that you are considered to be unarmored if your chest is naked or you're wearing something that has no armor in the chest slot (so your monk can still be modest if desired). There is, however, a small debuff to the added shield effect if other armor pieces are worn- details are in the read me.

The Unarmored acrobatic effects are as follows:

@Acrobatics lvl/ Rank / effect that phases in / max buff once phasing is complete

25 / Unarmored Novice / Shield Effect / 90
50 / Unarmored Apprentice / Resist Normal Weapon Damage/ 15
75/ Unarmored Journeyman / Resist Poison/ 15
101 / Unarmored Expert / Resist Fire / 15
125 / Unarmored Master/ Resist Frost / 15
150/ Unarmored:Unbreakable/ Resist Shock/ 15
175 / Unarmored:Untouchable/ Resist Magic/ 15
200 / Unarmored:Ultimate / Resist Paralyze/ 15
225 / Unarmored:Invincible / Reflect Damage / 10 (not phased in- just set at 10)


I feel that these are fair and not game breaking buffs, and ,yes I do know that the defense cap is 85 but some people have that modified to be higher; thus the 90. Some may feel that 85/90 shield buff is too much but from my experience some of those lvl 30+ warlord goblins are tough and can still kill ya regardless of the 85 defense. That or I just suck. Take your pick. :)

For more detailed information about the shield effect see the read me.

2. REQUIREMENTS
================

Oblivion

your favorite uncapper mod(s)- not required but highly recommended otherwise it would defeat the purpose of this mod.

(I didn't have SI checked when making this but since I have the game of the year edition, I'm not sure if SI will be needed due to my copy of the game being used to edit this)

==============
3. INSTALLING
==============

Copy Galerion Unarmored Acrobatics- Uncapped.esp to your "<oblivion installation folder>\DATA\"<br>( by default "C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\" )<br><br>Open your favorite Mod Manager and put a checkmark next to Galerion Unarmored Acrobatics- Uncapped.esp<br><br>When you load a game for the first time, you will be asked whether you want the unarmored ability to be penalized when you carry more than half of your maximal encumbrance. I tend to answer "no" here to be able to carry around lots of loot, but if you like realism you can answer "yes".<br><br>================<br>4. UNINSTALLING<br>================<br><br>you should make sure that the shield effect is gone. Simply equip a cuirass and save the game. After that it is safe to remove the plugin.<br><br>Note: if you have accidently removed it anyway without putting on a cuirass<br> first, you can fix the left-over shield value by typing in the console: &gt; player.modAV defendbonus - <your-left-over-defense-value><br><br>Remove Galerion Unarmored Acrobatic- Uncapped.esp to your "<oblivion installation folder>\DATA\"<br>( by default "C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\" )<br><br>===============<br>5. BACKUP<br>===============<br><br>As a surviving gold rule, always backup all your save games before trying a new mod. Better safe than sorry. It applies to this mod as well.<br><br>===========<br>6. CREDITS<br>===========<br><br>Let the Credit belong to Galerion! <br><br>If you wish to endorse this file please go to the original (http://tes.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=5067) and endorse that since I only did a lot tweaking to the script and ability buff list, which he could have done himself; however, since he's MIA I had the gall to upload this in his stead.<br><br>Special thanks goes to Genespears for the idea, collaborating, and testing.<br><br>===========================<br>7.
