ebony ethnic weapons

New Gladius, Katana and Scimitar

OG Skyrim version

XB1 version by Mvp42699

As I've said before, one of the appealing things about Skyrim is that weapons start to look silly at higher levels, while weapons at lower and mid-levels look cool. I've taken three steel weapons, each based on actual existing weapons (because they're better than pure fantasy weapons, and we all know that), and made new ebony weapons using their textures.

Gladius, Katana, and Scimitar - They all have the same properties as the Dragonbone sword and can be crafted using the "Dragon Armor" perk.

Before getting into the FAQ, I want to make an announcement to the three people who follow my mod; first, thank you for your loyalty and support. Second, there were reports that my description was too profane to me. No, this definitely doesn't mean I'm going to stop writing obnoxious descriptions, it just means that all my mods (save this one; I'll try not to swear) will be marked "Adults Only" from now on, and I'll probably put a disclaimer at the bottom of the page as well. Of course, people who actually like my description may have "show only adult mods" enabled.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: It's very sad that you posted this announcement in the mod description instead of in the forum.

A: I know, right?

Question: Why do ebony weapons have the properties of dragon bone weapons?

Answer: Because the katana and scimitar in the base game are made of steel, but their properties are higher than those of steel swords. While the Imperial Sword doesn't, it should because using it makes you feel like Russell Crowe in Gladiator.

Q: Is the sole purpose of this mod to announce the news?

Answer: No. But that's not all.

Q: Will you be doing more reinventions like this?

Answer: Very likely.

Q: There are five questions in this FAQ, only two of which are actually related to mods. What do you want to say for yourself?

A: Sorry.

Other mods that I should totally get because without them your Bethesda experience just won't be as great.

OG Skyrim Version

XB1 Version, courtesy of Mvp42699

As I've said twice before, one thing that kind of sucks about Skyrim is the weapons start to look stupid at higher levels, while lower and mid-level weapons look pretty cool. I've taken three steel weapons, each based on a weapon that actually exists (because those are better than purely fantasy weapons and we all know it), and made new ebony weapons with their textures.

A Gladius, a Katana, and a Scimitar - They all have the same stats as a Dragonbone sword, and can be crafted with the "Dragon Armor" perk.

Before we get into the FAQ, I want to make an announcement to the three people who follow my mods; for one, thank you for your loyalty and support. Second, I was reported for making my descriptions too profane. No, this absolutely doesn't mean I'm going to stop writing obnoxious descriptions, it just means that all my mods (save this one; I'm going to try and not swear in this) will be marked as "Adult Only" from now on, and I'll probably put a disclaimer at the bottom of the page too. Granted, the people who actually like my descriptions probably already have "show adult only mods" enabled.

FAQ:

Q: It's pretty pathetic that you made that announcement in a mod description instead of a forum post.

A: I know, right?

Q: Why do ebony weapons have the stats of Dragonbone weapons?

A: Because Katanas and Scimitars in the base game are made of steel, but have higher stats than steel swords. While the Imperial Sword doesn't, it should because using it makes you feel like Russell Crowe in Gladiator.

Q: Was the only purpose of this mod making that announcement?

A: No. Well, kind of. But not the whole purpose.

Q: Will you be making more retextures like this?

A: It's highly likely.

Q: There are five questions in this FAQ, and only two actually related to the mod. What do you have to say for yourself?

A: I'm sorry.
