Tweaked Armored Rags

Description
A personal attempt to make armored rags and armored rags (colored) more viable for actual use, since I was pretty tired of the armor meta being reserved exclusively for samurai armor, un/holy chestplate, mercenary plate and plated jacket. Changes are simply an increase in the coverage values and other misc stats, as follows:

Chest: From 90% to 100%
Stomach: From 20% to 60%
Both arms: Remain at 80%
Weight: From 15Kg to 18Kg
Removed the -5 defense penalty

There's at least another mod out there that modifies the rags, but it also modifies a bunch other items you may not want altered, like it was my case. This mod will only up the mentioned values for the armored rags exclusively. They'll still be a gamble to use, but a more forgiving one.

For other item tweaks, consider checking my modification on Ninja Blades: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1694217038

60% stomach protection? But there's nothing there xD Just 3 tires of leather xd
Nice work, btw.

Bless you for making this 2 years ago, still works. This is exactly what I wanted!

Armored Rags Seems like good armor for the early game and look great. However in the late game, with high stat Characters, even with this buff, Your Way better off with heavy armor.

I only used the rages before they put the negatives on them, its nice to see them actually usable again.

Glad more people can use this little mod. I settled for 60% for the stomach since the armored rags actually have a GREAT degree of damage reduction (up there with a similar quality unholy chestplate), so lower coverage makes up for a chestpiece with less stat debuffs. I'm open to suggestions about further tweaking to the percentages, but mind that going too high will increase the weight of the rags

I'm glad you did this. I always liked the rags but they just weren't viable bc of the negatives and the little to no coverage on the stomach. Thanks for this!
