Oblivion (2006) Version Available Here: Better Bound Items at Oblivion Nexus - mods and community
I used Bound Items a lot in Morrowind, and a good bit in Skyrim as well, I was disappointed by how they were handled in Oblivion, this mod makes them feel a lot more viable and consistent without breaking the game
-
Bound Weapons
-Damage is now equivalent to Ebony (This is a small nerf for the Bound Sword)
-Standardized Magicka Cost (Significantly lower outside of Daggers)
Bound Armor
-Bound Helmet [Fortify Light & Heavy Armor by 15pts]
-Bound Cuirass [Fortify Strength by 15pts]
-Bound Gauntlets [Fortify Blade/Blunt/Marksman by 15pts]

-Bound Boots [Fortify Speed by 15pts]
-Bound Shield [Fortify Block by 15pts]
