I've updated this for the final time I hope, but I had to upload it to Nexus as this dumb workshop system won't let me update it here..

Just added more loot to chest and an extra hint for people with no time for exploring.. :winter2019angrybulb:

ҥӵриӧѕ  [author] 20 Feb, 2017 @ 9:45am 
@m0therfucker It's Nightingale Prime HD. Mine is modified slightly though.

hey what kind of armor are you wearing in the pictures?

Just tested, seems you can forge it anywhere < that is the only rage here.

@Hekudan All I've done is explain my actions for the mod, no rage towards you. I'm willing to change aspects to try and suit all. I've changed the hints and the part about being forged anywhere. I am guilty of spawning stuff on me to test and if I like it, I will do the quest or w.e mod author wants, I enjoy puzzles, harder the better.

I am glad you like the mod, if you have any suggetions, please ask away. :tongue:

whoa 2 paragraphs
based on the last rage comment of yours, im not going to bother

I have understood the player. You can install this mod right now and go straight to the forge and create one, You trying to tell me the player is so stubborn that they'll say "I aint going to no forge" But to apease as many possible I'll make it so it can be crafted at any forge (honestly thought I had done this), since it is quite a trek.

Also if you notice I have left tips above ^^ to find the note, I tested this with a friend and they got it pretty quick. I'm not going to hand it on a plate to the player. IF they want it fast, then goto console and type help assassin. If they want to do it the way I set out they get a better reward for their hard work. The only other option is to have it spawn on them and that is a bad idea as this can crash the game, because you have no idea what mods they have.
