About this mod
Makes it so that you no longer have to be wearing no armor to receive the benefits from the Mage Armor perk.
- Permissions and credits
Notes:
Considering that even with a max rank Mage Armor perk, the best Armor spell only gives 300 points of armor, I felt that it was unfair to also require the player to be wearing no armor at all. The vanilla perk also heavily limits play styles, considering some of the best mage equipment in the game is Dragon Priest Masks, which all have a non-zero armor rating. With this plugin, those woes are no more, as Mage Armor will now just straight up increase the armor you get from spells like Stoneflesh. Perhaps now a heavy-armored warrior might consider putting some points into alteration so they can reach the armor cap without needing smithing. Or maybe a mage might consider putting on metal gauntlets as a backup for when things get too close. The possibilities are endless!
Features:
-All ranks of the perk Mage Armor will now boost the spells Oakflesh, Stoneflesh, Ironflesh, and Ebonyflesh regardless of whether or not you have armor equipped
Installation:
Drag and drop into your Data folder or mod manager of choice, it should probably go near the bottom of your load order.
This mod does not need cleaning.
Requirements:
Classic Skyrim updated to the latest version. No DLCs required.
Compatibility:
This mod modifies the spells, Oakflesh, Stoneflesh, Ironflesh, and Ebonyflesh as well as all 3 ranks of the Mage Armor perk. Obviously, it is incompatible with anything that also modifies those. Otherwise, it should work with everything.
In the vanilla game, the Conditions that check for whether you're wearing armor or not are actually located in the Spells themselves, so any similar spells added by mods will not be affected by this change.
Permissions:
This mod took me 10 minutes in the Creation Kit. You can do whatever the hell you want with it. Feel free to open it up and learn from it.
If anyone wants to port it to SSE, please do so. I can't be bothered.
