Human Noble Origin - Suddenly good equipment?

Post by GawainBS »

I played the Human Noble Origin again, but suddenly, I got really got equipment. Tier 6 armour, for example.
My question is: why did it change? It's a bit overpowered to get such equipment. I wonder where this comes from?

I'm using most of the mods from Flix's list, but none of those stated anything about it.

Thanks in advance!

What is your level and where did this tier 6 drop? (there are some items in the game, that do not stack with your level)

My first armour was Tier 6. As is the Family Sword. I also got a Twohanded Sword that was Tier 6, and a bow. My mother also came with Tier 6 Armour. Both armours are Heavy.

Also note that some pieces of equipment appear as rewards from certain DLCs as well.

I know that you can get a Tier 7 crossbow early on as well as a Grandmaster Rune, just from pickpocketing characters.

EDIT: It looks to me like this is a work of an item randomization mod. Are you using any such mods? Such thing can still be possible, even if the mod says nothing about it.

Found it: The readme straight out tells you that you get better equipment. I didn't think the changes would be so big. I feel dumb now. :(

Thanks for the reactions.

Probably Improved Atmosphere. For the sake of realism, drops are more static and are based more on the creature holding the items rather than your character level.
