Ideas to make the dragon priest masks more unique

Post » Mon Apr 06, 2015 12:23 am

Just a little pointless thread to pass the time, as Bethesda is not updating Skyrim anymore, and I can't mod.

Saying I am dissapointed in the dragon priests masks is exaggerated. I think that the unmarked quest to get all dragon priest masks is really cool, and the dragon priests have neat backstories and dungeons, and the enchants are neat. They're not completely unique, but they often have 3 enchants, even those that can't normally be applied to headgear(even the boring +70 stamina rahgot isn't something that can be made normally). Also, they're pretty much all intended for mages. Some strong warrior/archer masks would be neat, or ones that grant lesser powers, like ahzidal's ring or visage of mzund.

Anyways, this thread is for coming up with new unique effects for our beloved dragon priest masks, preferably by making enchants related to the dragon priest's backstory/name/dungeon/combat/current mask.

I'll start:

Hevnoraak Improved:

Diseases and poisons are reflected back to the attacker

So besides simply granting immunity to disease and poison, they are now applied to the attacker. While it might be redundant for disease applying enemies to lose some max health/magicka/stamina, fighting chaurus and falmer(and frostbite spiders, but they're weak) could suddenly become a lot less easer.

Rahgot Improved:

Damage dealt increases as health decreases

Perfect for aggressive warrior characters, not as useful for archer/sneak characters that are less likely to lose health. Magic-related enchants are preferred for mages though.

Considering Rahgot means anger in the dragon language, it seems fitting for a berserk-style enchant.

All masks:

Count towards the mage armor perk

Minor buff for all masks.
