Posted by Kromey at 7:15pm Jan 26 '12Not sure how many folks here are going to be interested in it. Basically, to be interested, you have to meet the following qualifications:
1) You play Skyrim
2) You play at least 1 character who wears light armor
3) You like the looks of glass armor over that of dragonscale
4) You really want the protective qualities of dragonscale
Basically, my mod adds "advanced glass" armor -- cuirass, boots, gauntlets, helmet, and shield -- to the game, which can be crafted once you have the perks for both glass and dragon armor. Advanced glass armors offer all of the same protective qualities as dragonscale (i.e. identical armor rating as dragonscale), but have the spiffy looks (and weight!) of glass!
The quasi-lore-friendly explanation is that you've learned the secrets of dragonscale construction, and applied those to working with glass. Mostly, though, I just like the way glass looks better (at least with the mesh/texture replacer I use), but didn't want to have to give up the armor rating of dragonscale.
