Author notes
I'm not sure why you would ever want to do anything with this file, but if you do, I don't care. Go wild. Also, I can't figure out why it says you aren't allowed to profit from my work. If you are clever enough to make money off of anything you get here, you deserve it. I won't stop you

This is my first (and probably my last) mod ever. It's just something I made in TES5Edit in a little under an hour after i discovered blades armor was a thing in the game, and I liked how it looked, but I only ever play as a light only character. Not to mention it looks ninja-ey. Lightly armored means light on your feet.
Day 1 update: Fixes some bad math (12/4=8, apparently), some not-bad-enough math (Armor weights are always whole numbers in vanilla), and some material properties of the shield. Stats based on various vanilla light armors compared against their heavy alternates. Feedback accepted. Stats: Armor - Wt: 11, Arm: 39 Gauntlets - Wt: 2, Arm: 9 Boots - Wt: 3, Arm: 9 Helm - Wt: 3, Arm: 13 Shield - Wt: 3, Arm: 20
There is now also an addon for tail armors compatibility. Tail armor: Wt:1, Arm: 5
Installation: Unzip the .zip, drop the .esp in your Skyrim/Data folder and enable with whatever mod manager you use. Couldn't be easier.
