Helmless Warrior

The Helmless Warrior plugin modifies Heavy Armor and Light Armor perks so they affect characters who are not wearing all 4 pieces of armor. The new, modified perks will work on any character wearing at least 3 pieces of armor, as opposed to the original ones that had only worked while wearing a full set.

In essence, you can enjoy the benefits of the various armor perks without wearing a helmet. (Or gauntlets, if you prefer that.)

An example perk:
Custom Fit (original): 25% Armor bonus if wearing all Light Armor: head, chest, hands, feet.
Custom Fit (patched): 25% Armor bonus if wearing at least 3 pieces of Light Armor (excluding shields).

A list of all the perks patched in Helmless Warrior:
Cushioned, Custom Fit, Deft Movement, Matching Set (Heavy Armor), Matching Set (Light Armor), Reflect Blows, Well Fitted, Wind Walker

The Helmless Warrior plugin was created by Adul.

INSTALL NOTE: For mod compatibility reasons it is recommended you make sure Helmless Warrior is as close to the end of your Skyrim load order as possible. The later this mod is loaded the less likely its effects will be overridden by another. To change your load order, select the Data Files option from the Skyrim launcher.
