Spike and Cage Armor Redone – SCAR


Made with FO4Edit

Did you, like me, love the look of the Spike and Cage armor in Fallout 4 but did you find it a bit lacking in the defense department?

Bethesda thought it would be a good idea to make the coolest armor worthless. You can’t put on ANY other clothing or armor pieces if you don’t use any mods and in return you get a very lousy protection value from wearing it.

I was tired of waiting for somebody else modding this for me (sometimes I’m lazy, hehe) so I did it myself. I hope you like it as much as I do. 🙂

WHAT DOES THIS MOD DO?
This mod changes the defensive values of both the Spike Armor and the Cage Armor (and their Helmeted version). Besides the defense boost I also gave them a SPECIAL boost, don’t worry it’s nothing major or game breaking. It gives them more Ballistic, Energy and Radiation Protection (Helmeted version).

Look below for the changes I made!

–Let me know if you think the MOD needs more balancing
