Cy’s Armor Expansion 2.0 (ACE Armours + Outfitz Remake)

Welcome to CAE! 😛 This mod brings back a bunch of cool stuff from outdated mods except…updated! Along with a modified armor preference toggle which enables Clerics and Archers to pick light/medium armor preferences. This mod was made with ACE in mind! ACE plans to possibly create an outfit/armor changer of their own one day but for now, I hope you enjoy my mod! I recommend you disable the mods listed above when using this mod, as you may end up with a LOT of duplicate items otherwise.

We looked into changing the armor preference toggle from a single button to a dropdown in the UI and came to the conclusion we would have to essentially remake the entire ACE Armours CORE mod, so for now we must stick to the current single button system, sorry!

All items listed are REQUIRED for this mod to function:
ACE (Made with ACE in mind)
ACE Armour CORE (Armor Swapper is built off of this original system so most definitely required)

Not Required but this mod was made with some features in mind for these mods:
Fisher Job + Archipelago Biome (For Upgraded Fisher outfit) [Not Required]
Swamp Biome + Firefly Clan + Beast Tamer (Varanus and Zilla armor now works for Beast Tamer!) [Not Required]
Pick ONLY one Lord Job mod:
Lord Job Standalone (Lord Armor) [Not Required]
or
Nordlings Kingdom (Lord Armor) [Not Required]

This mod has integrated content from the original mods with updated armor/perks/buffs and new content:

• New Varanus Zilla! Much weaker Health Points and AOE damage abilities than Zilla. More likely to drop Zilla Skin. This raid is included in the Insane raid pool

• Change between Cleric Light armor (for healing) and Cleric Medium armor (for Melee combat!)
• Change between Archer Light armor (more mobility/buckler shield) and Archer Medium armor (more defense/resistances but less mobility)
• Footman/Knight Color armor color preference now mostly applies to the Steel/Silver tier armor. More info in removed mod content section below
• New Worker outfit preference! Style your workers! (NOTE: Limited due to ACE seasonal system, mainly works best in the Spring)
• Now includes an option for Dynasty armor! Dynasty armor no longer takes priority for equipping unless you set them (Mostly applies to the max tiers of armor)
• REMINDER: Higher Quality armor will take priority but Legendary armor will ALWAYS take priority no matter what is selected!

• Archer Varanus Skin Armor (Medium armor/gives weak poison resist!)
• Archer Zilla Scale Armor (Medium armor/fire resist and immune to frostbite!)
  Both armors now have models for Amberstone Rabbits, Orcs and Firefly Clan Goblins!
• Bronze and Iron Cleric Mail Armor (Medium armor/higher defense but no healing bonuses/works with armor preference toggle!)
• Horned Northern Alliance Steel Helmet

• Padded Archer Vests, for cheap early defense crafted by the Weaver (Changed from the original Leather Archer Vest)
• Padded Cleric Robes, for cheap early defense crafted by the Weaver
• New Lord Silver Mail/Helmet with their own unique models! (+1 Extra Defense for your leader!)

---

• Upgraded outfits now work with new models for Rabbits, Orcs, and Firefly Clan goblins!
• Recipe Changes (now require Weaver level 2 and leather to craft outfits)
• New Upgraded Outfits (with Devoted speed buff!) for Brewer, Geomancer, and Fisher (not visible if that mod is not installed)
• Changed to "uncommon" rarity in the shop
• Resized outfit and hat Icons in the UI
• Upgraded crafter hats have been removed (see below)

---

• [ACE Armours] Archer/Cleric colored armor variants (Removed in favor of updated armor preference toggle system)
• [ACE Armours] Archer/Footman cloth and leather colored armor variants (Became obsolete once you moved onto Blacksmithing)
• [ACE Armours] Footman/Knight color variants below Steel/Silver tier (Became obsolete eventually)
• [ACE Armours] Varanus Skin Armor colored variants
• [ACE Armours] Northern Alliance color variants (Too similar to their default armor/given to Lord instead)
• [ACE Armours] Steel Cleric Mail armor (Made Legendary armor obsolete)
• [Outfitz] Upgraded Crafter Hats (Just use ACE crafter hats, an already existing system. Full explanation in update notes)
• [Armis Maximus] Black and White armor sets, Blade Combat Job (Models didn’t fit the games style and I didnt have plans to use the Blade Combat Job)

-> Just to be safe: Use a new save

-> Serene League doesn’t currently use this system so the button is not present in the UI for that kingdom which may result in you unable to prefer armor from that mod

-> Some armor pieces may have text that arent working in the menu or as items in the ground

-> The armor preference system may behave weirdly on armor tiers below the max

-> Any bugs related to the Orcs from the original ACE Armours mod will most likely still be present as all orc files were untouched when imported into this mod
