About this mod

Provides a new way to acquire full Daedric armor, without traveling to Mournhold and Solstheim and without killing or otherwise accosting Divayth Fyr. You will still have to work for it, however.

What this mod does:

Adds unenchanted Daedric pauldrons and a cuirass to dungeons in Vvardenfell.

In the base game of Morrowind, it is nearly impossible to acquire a full set of Daedric armor. The only way to get the pauldrons and cuirass was by killing Divayth Fyr, an extremely important character in the main plot, or by using the 'Disintegrate, Calm, Pickpocket' method, which... is not very roleplay-friendly, IMO. This mod adds the missing pieces to Vvardenfell. Somewhere. Rest assured, they lie within some of the most dangerous places in Morrowind, and acquiring them will present a similar challenge as the pieces present in the vanilla game.

There are two versions. For those who believe Daedric armor should be like Sith Lords, the 'Expansions Balance' version removes the pauldrons and cuirass from Solstheim and Mournhold. There can only be two!

Why?

While I appreciate that Daedric armor is supposed to be extremely rare and valuable, and that having only two full sets in the entire game is completely reasonable, I have always felt that the lack of unenchanted pauldrons and cuirass on Vvardenfell was more of an oversight on the part of Bethesda than it was a conscious choice. The expansions did add them in, but I feel the manner in which this was done, hiding them in obtuse crevices, is overcompensating somewhat. After all, it isn't nearly so difficult to locate the pieces found on Vvardenfell (you can even find three unenchanted sets of greaves, perhaps calling into question the intended level of rarity). And besides, by the time you've visited both Mournhold and Solstheim, your playtime is likely close to over, and you have no time to enjoy your newly completed set of demonic plate-armor.


Installation and Requirements:

Just extract into Data Files and activate the plugin. The base versions requires only Morrowind. The Expansion Balance version requires both Tribunal and Bloodmoon (obviously). Both have been cleaned with TESAME. Use only one.

The download also includes a text file with spoilers for where the pieces are found. However, anyone aware of the locations for the rest of the pieces and can extrapolate patterns will likely figure it out without help.
