Part damage

As the name suggests, it does more damage in places like the head (the neck also works)

There are other places, such as hands, feet, etc., which can be adjusted in the .ini file provided by the author.

But I can’t understand it, so I can only leave it to you.

The following is the introduction of the original author

***Introduction***

Getting tired of enemy taking dozens of arrows to the head and still standing? With this mod, now you can teach them the pain of getting hit in the head.

Arrows that hit the player and NPCs can now do different damage and effect depending on the hit location.

Any enchantments on the weapon also become stronger with location damage multiplier.

There are two INI presets to choose from

INI - Simple (simple mode)

Head: 2.0x damage, 25% chance of knockdown and 50% chance of stagger. (1.5x against heavy helmet or when under the effect of dragon hide spell)

Neck: 1.5x damage, bleeding.

Arms: 1.0x damage, Reduced physical damage and magical skills. 15% chance of silence. 15% chance of disarm. (The player is not affected by disarm because it's no fun trying to find your weapon dropped in a dark cave, re-favorite, re-set hotkey and re-equip it.)

Legs: 1.0x damage, Reduced movement speed. 25% chance of stagger.

Other: 1.0x damage, no special effect.

INI - Complex: For version 1.3 or newer. Penetration chance scale with incoming damage vs max HP.

New feature in v2.0

The target is treated as wearing full light armor when under the effect of non-master armor spell or full heavy armor when under the effect of master armor spell.(Dragon Hide)

Head - Heavy Helmet (50%): Deflect arrow, 1.5x damage, 15% chance of knockdown and 35% chance of stagger.

Head - Default: 2.0x damage, 25% chance of knockdown and 50% chance of stagger. (Also used when the helmet protection failed to proc)

Neck - Light Cuirass (35%): 1.35x damage and 75% chance of bleeding.

Arms - Default: 1.0x damage, Reduced physical damage and magical skills. 15% chance of silence. 15% chance of disarm.

The player is not affected by disarm because it's no fun trying to find your weapon dropped in a dark cave, re-favorite, re-set hotkey and re-equip it.

Legs - Heavy Boots (50%): 0.75x damage, 50% chance of reduced movement speed. 15% chance of stagger.

Legs - Light Boots (35%): 0.85x damage, 75% chance of reduced movement speed. 20% chance of stagger.

Legs - Default: 1.0x damage, Reduced movement speed. 25% chance of stagger.

Shield (50%): Completely block damage and deflect arrow passively even when not actively blocking with it.

Other: 1.0x damage, no special effect.

Note that the special effect chance scale with the damage done by default. You need to do at least 25% of the target's max HP in damage to have the maximum chance described above. This can be changed in the INI.
