About this mod
This is a modification/patch that places the crossbows from Legendary Skyrim Crossbows into two different categories: Heavy and Light.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
What I changed:
I wanted to keep the crossbows in line with the changes to the different bows. I followed the stats that were provided by Long and Short Bow's description to place the crossbows into different tiers according to their material type. I also changed the bolts' projectile values to be more varied and in line with ACE Archery. I did this to provide a bigger difference between bows and crossbows of the same types. The bolts have a higher speed (+1000 from what ACE Archery provides on the arrows), I also gave the bolts a higher impact force (+half, rounded up).
Example:
Daedric Arrows
- 7400 speed
- 35 fade distance
- 1.6 impact force
Daedric Bolts
- 8400 speed
- 25 fade distance (they are moving faster you can lose sight easier...)
- 2.4 impact force
All the material types of crossbows have the same stat changes as the bows that are modified by Long and Short Bows/ACE Archery. The heavy crossbows will be Very Loud and the light crossbows I kept at Normal sound. The only crossbows that are set to silent are: Dark Brotherhood, Assassin's, Nightingale and the Bound crossbows. I felt that this gave a bit more variation between Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild since they both use an Ebony type Heavy Crossbow. At least until you gain favor with Nocturnal. The Dark Brotherhood would have worked harder to silence their weapons as silence is the key to their profession.
Anyway, I am still going through and tweaking things here and there. I would love feedback to help keep the variations different and interesting, as well as any bugs that may come up.
