Cuirass of the Savior's Hide Full Set

Post by vorrheis »

Hey,
I was just snooping through the Imperial Library, and I noticed that the Savior's Hide Armor is supposed to be a full set. If you go into the artifact database it mentions the history of the Hide Cuirass and states specifically that the rest of the armor has whereabouts unknown. Meaning that it existed in Battlespire.
We should make the rest and put it in Skyrim. Each piece should be in the possession of a Werecreature and it could be a cool quest to track them down in both the wilderness and villiages (in human form).
Also, in Battlespire, the full set of armor was required to use the Spear of Bitter Mercy. We could apply a script that if the PC has all of the Hide armor equipped, the Spear of Bitter Mercy has a MUCH better enchantment. It's supposed to kill anything in one hit, but we could just kick up it's current enchantment, so it's not too ridiculous.
I guess this would require one monster script and a pretty big quest, but I posted it here because it's mostly about the armor.

It would indeed be a kickarse (see I avoided it) quest, and I'd rather like to see this armour, there're quite a few odd bits of armour in the game that should IMO have been expanded into full sets, especially the non-uber stuff like the Redoran Master helm, the Dragonscale armour and even Newtscale armour.

There's already one released a rather long time ago. Dunno where, but try searching.

Actually I did one, it's semi-decent for just being a simple reaplication of the cuirass textures on default models. Obviously you would be able to do much better. And it is something I would like to see.

On a different note, why are we avoiding saying kick ass?

I think it's the fanboyishness it conveys to our posts if we use it too much. Nazz, got any pics of your version?

Actually, filling out sets of armor has been worked on, and more planned.

@Nazz, I downloaded your plug-in, and I would say it looks really good (the armor). It's really in "Savior's Hide" style. Maybe the others could take a look at it too. The only problem I had was that the helm mesh was missing, so I couldn't test that. And you could change the texture from the boots so the "fur" of the hide is only at the back, instead at the whole boots.

i dont think that that would be a good idea because the curiass of the saviors hide was ment to be one peice of armor that had survived over the years

and greaves and boots and helms etc.... were probably never made

I hate to bump this, but someone needs to take this up. It's in Lore, after all.

I suppose the other peices wouldn't be as powerful as the Curiass.

They should be scattered in Morrowind as well as Skyrim, but they should be extremely hard to find, and any references to them should be vague in game. They are the skin of Hircine...

i've seen a full set before. in fact i can't think of one set that hasn't been created in full by some one. maybe a search on the ES forums would be an idea. ..or google

The only ones out there are retextures: something we are avoiding. I would love it if the armour was an origional TR model.

A member of TR made a full set for public. Can't remember who it was. But it was a retexture of existing armor. A good retexture, but I would like to see a completely new set. After all, it are artifacts.
