Beast Races

Post by DARK SAGE »

Am I the only one who thinks it was a major drag for beast races not to be able to wear shoes, boots, full helms and other stuff? This is the only thing dicouraging me from being argonian or khajiit. They could have at least replaced the armour that cant be used with equally gud stuff.

It makes sense for them not to be able to wear standard equipment. Although it may have been better if seperate equipment was available, so you could miss out on items whether you played an Imperial or a Khajitt.
Some system like Arcanum with different armour sizes only to be worn by those people might work.
There's one for 'Oblivion' :p .

Most of your protection comes from your cuirass and greaves anyway, so I don't think it's a problem personally.

Why not create an argonian or khajiit specializing in unarmormed for a bit of a challenge? Or, maybe combine unarmored with light armor.

Regardless of the race I play, I tend to wear: cuirass, greaves, (sometimes boots), and bracers. I never wear a helmet or pauldrons. Just personal playing style though ;)

When you think about it, beast races (more like 'best races') are not at too much of a disadvantage. I mean, do you think my Argonian character was saying "wow, I wish I were wearing boots" to himself yesterday while he completed a Morag Tong contract using a shovel? I bet he was thinking something more like "wow, i'm going to hell for this"

I don't normally bother with helmets anyway, so that doesn't bother me much. And I have the boots for beasts mod, so I just do that when I want to wear boots.
I wanted to change my sig, but I can't think of anything to change it to :(

But you know some of those items have constant effects that a kahjiit might want. Such as the Masque of Clavicus Vile etc.

Go to the sticky at the top of this MW forum entitled The Morrowind Yellowpages, (http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/showt ... 601&page=1) then go to Game FAQs. Once there, click on the link entitled Legendary/Famous Artifacts FAQ. You will find everything you want to know, in addition to plenty of spoilers on all kinds of other nice items. :)

Note: While a number of links posted at the Yellowpages no longer work, quite a few do, and several are very helpful. Also handy is Hannah's Whereizit.
