UPDATE:
5th September 2024
*New Addon Added* Bandits and Cumans
Only Bandits and Cumans will equip and fight with the daggers.
This is a seperate file that can be used to overwrite the weapon2weapon_preset file already in the main download of Playable Daggers.
This mod introduces aesthetic dual wielding combat to Kingdom Come Deliverance with the ability to use a choice of two daggers in your off-hand and a choice of two playable daggers in your main-hand.
All new playable daggers use agility as their skill requisite, and are levelled in line with similar weapons of the same tier, with the off-hand variants able to be repaired at a blacksmith or using a blacksmith repair kit, and the main-hand daggers being repaired at a sharpening wheel and swordsmith.
The off-hand daggers are defensive weapons and therefore play much like a shield. They are mostly used for parrying, however they also have actions in the vanilla combos that previously would have used a shield. Master strikes are still possible.
The main-hand daggers play similar to shortswords. Their reduced range can be challenging. They lean heavily on being able to do stab damage.
They can be dropped to be viewed.
The vanilla daggers have not been touched and are still required for stealth kills.
Two playable main-hand daggers. Both use the model from the excellent Baselard Dagger mod
Two playable off-hand daggers. Both use vanilla models
All daggers have unique ID's
All daggers have been added to a select few Bandits and Cumans who will equip and fight with them (See extra addon file)
The two off-hand daggers can be bought from Blacksmiths. The two main-hand from Swordsmiths. Please allow merchants to restock
A new Off-Hand Dagger skill tree has been added with 5 new unique perks and the unlocking of the hidden shield perks (that work with the daggers)
Five new unique perks based around agility weapons have been added to the Sword skill tree
Various and numerous tweaks to the in-game descriptions have been added to accomodate these new daggers
Full details of all changes for troubleshooting and editing included in the download file in the ReadMe and Troubleshooting text files.
Please read these first before posting issues.
Unzip TyburnPlayableDaggers and put the main TyburnPlayableDaggers folder (the one with Data in) in your Mods folder.
If you have V1.0 of this mod (TyburnPlayableOffHandDaggers) please delete it from your Mods folder and replace with this latest version.
If you are installing the BanditAndCuman addon please follow the instructions in the included ReadMe.
Safe to un-install mid save but if you spend perk points on a perk that you then remove you may need to use "Lethean Water" to redistribute perk points properly.
Works with Perkaholic
Works with PolearmsUnleashed
All files are uniquely named however there could always be conflict with other mods. If there is an issue consider having Playable Daggers loaded near the bottom of your order. Troubleshooting is included in the main file should it be needed. Only the edited lines are included in the files, for easy reference. Any issues not covered by the ReadMe please use the comments board.
(Optional)
A file that removes the off-hand dagger from a character's back (shield slot) when equipped. Full instructions in the ReadMe in the the ExtraModification folder. This is just a visual tweak that doesn't affect gameplay. Very easy to add.
An enormous thank you to Aergistal for their permission to use their fantasic Baselard Dagger model for the main-hand daggers. The vision I always had for this mod just couldn't have happened without this usage and I'm hugely grateful to them.
Their mod adds a new 14th century baselard dagger based on a custom design by:
