Overview:

Katana Crafting SE - SPID NG (KatCraftSEPIG) disperses the Katanas, Wazikashis, Tantos, Dai-Katanas and Jian from lautasantenni's Katana Crafting - SE to NPCs across Skyrim based on their character levels and one-handed and two-handed skill levels.

Based on powerofthree's Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) and written with the help of fig26uk's SPID Random Distribution Helper, KatCraftSEPIG is extremely lightweight and consists only of a _DISTRI.ini text file--no ESP or ESL!

Distribution Details:

  • NPCs who have a minimum one-handed or two-handed skill level of 30, 35 or 40, a character level in the range of 1-15, 16-30, 31-45 or 45-999 and fit an appropriate character archetype (e.g., Bandits) will randomly receive one appropriately-tiered weapon.
    Example 1: An NPC named "Bandit Highwayman" who is character level 14, one-handed skill level 42, and two-handed skill level 26 has a 5% chance to receive one of the following: a Steel Katana, Steel Wazikashi, Steel Tanto, Orcish Katana, Orcish Wazikashi or an Orcish Tanto. They have a 1% chance to instead receive one of the following: a Dwarven Katana, Dwarven Wazikashi or a Dwarven Tanto.
    Example 2:
    An NPC named "Vigilant of Stendarr" who is character level 25, one-handed skill level 34 and two-handed skill level 40 has a 5% chance to receive one Silver Dai-Katana.
  • Additionally, I have given certain named NPCs specific weapons for flavor purposes.
    Example 3: Jenassa, the Dunmer mercenary recruited in Whiterun, will always have two Orcish Wazikashis.
  • The following weapons will not be randomly distributed to NPCs: Stahlrim*: Katana, Wazikashi, Tanto, Dai-Katana; Dragonbone: Katana, Wazikashi, Tanto, Dai-Katana; Amber: Katana, Wazikashi, Tanto, Dai-Katana; Madness: Katana, Wazikashi, Tanto, Dai-Katana.
    * Jordis the Sword-Maiden can be recruited with a Stahlrim Katana, and Baldor Iron-Shaper should have at least 2 copies of each of these weapons for sale. 
  • I have tried to distribute the weapons to the appropriate character archetypes based on my subjective interpretation of lore and gameplay balance.
    Example 4: Forsworn will not use any of the weapons from lautasantenni's mod. Dawnguard NPCs only have a chance to obtain the Dawnguard series of weapons from lautasantenni's mod. Cultists only have a chance to obtain tantos, the special daggers added by lautasantenni's mod.
Complementary Mods:

The following mods are not required for this distribution list to work, but I highly recommend them if you're already using MCO and custom weapon animations, as they'll help better integrate lautasantenni's amazing weapons into your gameplay experience and differentiate them from regular swords and greatswords. Some of the following mods need powerofthree's Keyword Item Distributor and V3kta's Keyword Compatibility Framework to work with no additional tweaking / edits:
