This mod rebalances the underwhelming Starborn gear and ship. I split it up into a few files so you have more control over what you want to be buffed 🙂
BuffedStarbornSpacesuits.esp
This file adds a flat +64 resistance bonus to PHYS/ENGY/EM to all of the Starborn spacesuits, which makes them actually viable – the Venator suit will now be the best possible armor in the game at 310 resistance.
BuffedStarbornShipWeapons.esp
This file gives the Starborn Guardian ship a weapon buff so it isn’t immediately outperformed by any ship you build – my endgame class C ship still kills enemies a bit faster but the Guardian is way speedier so i think it balances out.
I didn’t check if this also makes enemy Starborn ships stronger but it probably does, so keep this in mind.
BuffedStarbornShipStats.esp
This file increases the Starborn Guardian ship’s otherwise atrocious cargo space and made it shielded as the authorities should have major problems scanning such exotic vessels.
The ESP files are manually put together but i checked it in the experimental xEdit build for errors (it had none, other than most ESP files I found on here) and it should work without any issues. I’m almost certain a file generated with a future stable xEdit build will look exactly the same. Still, I’d advice to create a save game before installing the mod.
Installation guide (manual):
Install FSFE (or ASI Loader if you are not on Steam)
Install Plugins.txt Enabler
Go to your game’s root folder (the one with Starfield.exe inside)
Extract the .esp files of your choice into the Data directory
Go to this folder: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Starfield (WIN+R and paste this text)
If you don’t have a Plugins.txt file in there yet, create one (keep in mind your windows installation might hide the .txt file extension)
Paste the following lines into this file (or just the lines you want, depending on which buffs you want)
*BuffedStarbornSpacesuits.esp
*BuffedStarbornShipWeapons.esp
*BuffedStarbornShipStats.esp
If that doesn’t work, try putting the .esp files into the Documents\My Games\Starfield folder, but it worked in the other directory for me
Future ideas:
Make the spacesuits modifiable at workbenches
Add the Supernova weapon (NOV) to the Guardian ship, this might be difficult tho
