Warden's Keep it Extreme Edition released June 1st, 2020 -- Minimal equipment drops to stop inventory bloat. Game code allows for a very small chance of a drop, per item equipped, plus one additional random item. -- Removed treasure containers of low level or junk items. -- Most creatures will be level 25 for more XP. However, in combat rank matters more than level. -- Squeezed a few more points of damage out of Levi. -- Added two entrance doors to the repaired keep and one exit door to Avernus' tower. -- Restored Ogre Onslaught to repaired peak. -- Added a way to leave the repair peak to explore the surrounding area. -- Added some new toys to play with at the restored peak. -- Merchant Levi will sell unlimited crafting components. -- Merchant Mikael will sell unique Black Edition starmetal equipment. ---===+++===--- Final Edition released April 28th, 2013. Have you ever wished you could loot all that warden equipment at Soldier's Peak? Even better, don't you wish you could loot all the most expensive stuff? Don't you wish the Dryden family would properly show their gratitude by buying/selling at fair market value? Your wishes have come true! Don't just play it. Keep it! You also, at your option, get the following bonuses when returning to the Peak: -- Shale gets followed by cats instead of crows. -- There is a desire demon named Lamppost. -- The Dryden merchants now buy/sell at the actual flat rate value. Many items to choose from. -- By default Levi will be a crossbowman. Remove his folder if you want the vanilla commoner Levi. -- Rank on some creatures have been changed. All critters and weak-normals are now normals. Boss demons are now elites. Sophia and Avernus are now bosses. -- NPC rank within cutscenes have been maxed to show highest level material. -- Volume level for ambient sound effects have been turned up on all maps. -- Added more ambient birdsong to final 'Soldiers Peek repaired' map. Added flora and fauna and other cool things. Halla replace deer outside the keep. -- All demons and undead will spawn. This will give you larger battles and maximum XP. Use as much or as little of this mod as you want. SAVE FREQUENTLY! Maps are only generated the very first time you visit it. For best results install this mod BEFORE the first time you travel to Soldier's Peak. I recommend making a full save right before your first trip to Soldier's Peak. When finished go directly to camp and make another full save. This way you can play the quest and visit the merchants interchangeably with or without this mod installed. Obviously you must have the Warden's Keep DLC installed. SAVE FREQUENTLY! Before installing this mod I strongly recommend installing Dragon Age Redesigned and The Winter Forge mods. These mods will make your experience with Warden's Keep It, and the rest of the game, so much better. If you're not using these mods you might as well turn off your computer and read a book instead. SAVE FREQUENTLY! Added an optional inventory bug fix. For example heavy gloves will no longer be mixed with light gloves. Dwyn's sword will show with the other long swords instead of being at the bottom. Etc. This fixes vanilla items and Warden's Keep items. Just drop the file anywhere in your override folder and the fix will take place immediately. If I find other bugged items I'll update this file. SAVE FREQUENTLY! ===== Thanks to my beta testers Parcheetahzan, kani_hime, Risibisi, makara5656, and Thandal. They have a halla named after their warden. Special thanks to my senior testers, who have been at this a long time, ahlewis32 and ladyluck278. They have their morphs up in the picnic terrace with Duncan. ===== Installation path: <...>\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override Installation instructions: Just drop the folder(s) into your override folder. ===== Uninstall instructions: Remove the folders(s) you no longer want. ===== Known issues: Combatting undead too close to Sophia or Avernus will trigger their cutscene. At that point the cutscene proceeds normally and combat will continue immediately afterwards. To avoid this I recommend you tank the undead away from them before crossing the trigger boundary. ===== Known conflicts: Improved Atmosphere will conflict with the Warden Commander's boots & gloves. Deleteing gwb_im_arm_bot_mas_wcm.uti, gwb_im_arm_cht_mas_wcm.uti and gwb_im_arm_glv_mas_wcm.uti from <...>\Improved Atmosphere\1. Global\1.4. Items\UTI\Armors, Weapons\For Warden's Keep folder should solve this problem. === Recommend mods: I have a ton of them installed myself but as I've said before these really stand out...
