So you're now running around in your new, improved and better looking Heleus Icon armor set! But there is still a problem eh? Your guns/ weapons are still broken and unbalanced. Some guns are too strong, others to weak resulting in a very few arrays of useable guns.
No worry I got your back with mine weapons [guns] overhaul mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/823?tab=posts&BH=1
If you feel like you are up for a greater challenge? Wearing your new, improved and shining Armor. I advise you to try out mine Stronger_Enemies mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/828
Most notable changes to [Heleus Icon armor X] are: > Re-done all existing stats from scratch. > Increased the original stats of the armor set [slightly higher numbers]. > Added additional stats to the helm and chest. > Armor swap to: Scavenger armor [DLC set] > Armor swap to: Deep Space Explorer armor [DLC set] > Armor swap to: Heleus Defender armor [base-game set] > Optional: Heleus Icon X Armor with less powerful stats adjustments [no armor-swap]
All the changes to the Heleus Icon armor set are within reason. There are made to give more meaning to the term ULTRA-RARE. You be more power/stronger wearing this modded set, but not like god mode powerful. You will be ULTRA-RARE powerful.
Also, I strongly advice to play on ether Hardcore or Insanity mode. For most enjoyable gameplay.

One of the bigger issue is how there is no leg or arm slot so you can't use the special augments for them like the bonus to jump melee and some of the nice stuff for the legs like the damage bonus while hovering. it's not game breaking but it is unfortunate and they didn't think about that when they made it how it needed to count as 4 slots of armor. at least the damage resist augments were chest only so you weren't completely gimped, and your adjustments put it a bit over the bonuses you could have got from having extra stats on the other parts with a healthy hybrid stat mix.
Hoi. First off I gotta admit, I really like the way you boosted that armor. However I noticed, that the Appearance Swap I did on the game (Heleus_03 to Heleus_02) doesn't work with your mod, naturally. And of course I also gotta admit, that I simply can't work out how those stat edits work. I was wondering if you have or know of any documentation on how it works. Been looking that up for days now and can't find anything on how it works exactly. My Goal was to give all Armors the same stats so that there are only visual changes for Armor. Everything I tried so far leads to either crashes or armor with broken stats. Heh. Very frustrating. Really wish there was a simple "Choose Armor Appereance" Button in the games crafting menu. That would have saved so much work for everyone.
It's been a year since anyone posted here don't know if you will see this. Do you have any documentation on how you edited the armor in game? I was hoping to just add melee damage to your armor and drop the tech damage. I've been search online and can't find much of anything.
This is the only surviving mod of yours, so I can only post here. Some questions: - What happened to all your other mods? - There was one that might be interesting, called (as far as I remember) "Bugs be gone"; what kind of bugs did it correct? Do you intend to put a new version online with a detailed description of what it does? Others criticized you for not giving enough details, so, please, be more accurate in your descriptions.
And please, DON'T DELETE POSTS; people won't appreciate that, and you've been criticized for this behaviour too. I'm too old to care, but many others might be offended.
Yes, I had several mods on ME:A like QoL, bug fixes and overhauls. Took them down, beaten ME:A several times now, no longer working on ME:A. Gonna work on other mods now, perhaps Dragon age or Witcher 3. Maybe make some modded gear for Borderlands 3.
I try to be accurate in descriptions, but some mods of mine, d0 so much, kinda hard to name it all, As for stats changes, people can easily google it in a new TAB and see it side by side, problem solved.
So be it! You didn't quite answer to my questions, but whatever. At least, if you no longer are interested in modding MEA, please publish fbproject files relative to your mods, so that other modders could take over from the point you stopped at. As I said, some of these mods looked very promising.

2. Please detail the changes in the changelog on your overview page, the screenshots only show part of what the mod does. I can see the modded vallues are realistic, and this makes me wish to use the mod more, but I would like and many others who would want to potentially use your mod will want accurate, complete, and concise decriptions on exactly what your mod does and how it improves their game experience.

I have found a bug in your mod, here is the bug reports Bug Name: Crash to Desktop upon attempting to research armor with modified stats. Description: Upon trying to research Helius armor rank 10, i get a crash to desktop. Steps to Reproduce:
Start with a character who has not researched Helius armor rank 10 (lvl 80+ character required)
Install frosty mod manager 1.0.5.9
Download and Add mod to frosty mod manager
Load mod into saved game that has not yet researched rank 10 Helius Defender armor/helment
Go to Research Center and activate
Choose research
Choose Helus technology section
Choose Armor
Scroll down to get to Helus Armor
Game Crash to Desktop
Observed: When you have already researched rank 9 and as a character are looking to research rank 10 armors (moving from 70's to 80's in level) attempting to research rank 10 Helius armor will cause a Crash to Desktop Expected: Able to see stats, understand what I am researching, and research the armor with the mod installed. Notes: I tested the Armor Overhaul - Heleus Icon Armor X (Heleus Defender) mod version 1.0 updated 15th Feb 2020
Hi. Thank you for your reply.
1) I delete any post I wish, since it is my mod page [you asked the same question as someone else, so I updated the page. Therefor there is no point in having the same question twice, since I addressed it]
2) My STICKY tells exactly what mine mod does. The screenshot clearly displays the stat adjustment changes, you can google search Heleus Icon armor X for the classic stats.
But again in short, mine mod does: > Gives you the option of an sexy DLC armor-swap. > Slightly higher base/ classic stats [See screenshots] > Added new stats within reason [See screenshots] > Optional mod: Languorous stat increases to Heleus Icon Armor [See screenshots]
3) For the time being, a simple fix: > Research RANK 10 first. > Save the game. > Then apply mine armor mod like normal, via Frosty. > Now you should be able to craft mine version of the Heleus Armor without any squalor.
I will update the mod page with this info. Thanks for the report. Since I play NG+ with rank 10 already in the pocket, everything was working perfect at my end!
Enjoy! -AeroShok999
Hi,
Thank you, i disoverd that work around on its own which allowed me to play with your mod.
My ask though for more details was more to find out exactly what the mod did.
Example: Before vs after
before it did
x% damage
X% power restoration and defense
X other benefits
After mod
y% weapon damage
y% power damage
y% other effects listed in order
ect...
This is because I wanted to see what effect it woutl have before installing.
As far as your right to delete posts. I respecttfully disagree. I often go back to my own posts to see if things have changed or what additional information has been added. By deleting 'duplicates' as you call them. you have removed the history chain.
Currently I am no longer using the mod, while I very much like the changes and additions to the values, as it makes the armor feel ilke an ultra rare armor now, I dont really like the changes in textures.... I just much prefer the original texture.
That being said, I have a request. Would you be so kind to upload a version that does not modify the textures at all, just changes the stats on the armor? Thank you.
0) OG stats: https://masseffectandromeda.gamepedia.com/Heleus_Armor - Screenshots: modded stats [Now you can see side by side if you open in a new tab, just a simple click away]
1) Like I said, it is mine mod page. If I feel like deleting a post because the same question is already asked and handled I am, free to delete a post on my OWN mod page, if I wish.
2) Ok, no problem. I could upload an OG texture of Rank 10 with the adjusted stats. Reason I did the armor swap mainly was because of the DLC armor, I really like the Scavenger armor set and added the Deep space and defender as a bonus for people who like it. Most people dislike the OG skin of Icon armor.
Wish granted mortal! You can now run around with the improved and boosted stats of the Icon without any re-texture. If you are jubilant now? Don't forget to vote, like and consider endorsing. Thank you!
