Black Wolf’s Better Full Armor Set Bonuses

7 days to die black wolfs better full armor set bonuses

After playing for a while i noticed that, despite the developers and the game encouraging it, most full armor sets are simply not worth picking over wearing the best pieces of armor available from every type.

This mod aims to improve ALL of the full armor sets bonuses. Values for tier 1-5 armors have been increased, i won’t specify them, just know that they are better and will overall improve your gaming experience.
Vanilla values for tier 6 full sets of armors have been massively buffed.
Tier 6 full sets of armors now gain unique abilities!

The Descriptions have been added! Supported language: English
If you’d like to translate the descriptions for your own language, please contact me here!

Works just fine for me, i can’t really help you without context. The only thing i can think of is the installation process, make sure to extract the folder into your mods folder, if you just shove the zip file in it, it will simply not work.

This mod really helps me out alot. I only like to play hardcore 1 life/perma-death and set everything to nightmare, in a zombie apoc it should be dangerous/deadly. I have other mods that spawn ferals/bosses on day 1. These armour bonuses are a great help to my play settings, Thank you. To the people who say that these armour sets are too OP, TRY and play the game with only 1 life/Perma Death and set all ferals/zombies/bosses to nightmare, trust me you will not cry about being to powerful and OP.

So, if I understand correctly from the description, with this mod the only armor sets I will ever use are:

1) Commando, for early game and all horde nights
2) Nomad late gamee for wastland raids.
3) Resource Gathering sets.

Nice. I mean, in vanilla I never wear a full set ’cause vanilla bonuses are a joke.

Question: does your Commando set work also with 45 ACP and 5.56 from Izy (since you are a tester of Izy mod I’m assuming yes)?

I think the Nomad ‘no encumberance in wasteland’ should be changed to something else. It is kinda useless when there is a book that does the same thing. Maybe add a Damage mitigation bonus instead? Thanks on the nerd bonus of crafting time! My gods why didn’t TFPs do this themselves?!

Do the bonuses work with Mods like Izy’s (Izayo) weapons and Bdub’s vehicles?

you must be the same guy that commented on the other side?
I already told you that “the book” you’re talking about isn’t a book. It’s the bonus you get after you have read all the 7 firefighter books, which can be either found in firetrucks, or by leveling up “well insulated” which nobody does and firetrucks are incredibly rare to find. And i’m sure you know how tedious looting perk books is. Also, my bonus for nomad works with mods that increase backpack size while the vanilla bonus doesn’t.

Nomad armor is mostly designed for Wasteland only playthroughs, then again it’s fair if you plan on crafting different armors for different biomes, if you leave Wasteland, nomad provides nothing as a bonus.

I personally dislike swapping armors. doing a no crafting run and just got to wasteland. I just find it a bit annoying that the nomad armour gives all weapon buffs and renders all other armours close to useless so I got to respec from medium to heavy.

Nomad armor only gives bonuses to weapon damage, but other armors specialize in specific weapons, granting reload speed or movement speed. Commando armor is a lot more superior than Nomad in this aspect. Then again Wasteland is the hardest biome to survive in.

50% stamina regeneration when in the Wasteland biome
20% faster movement speed when in the Wasteland biome
60% more damage and 60% attack speed with any melee weapon when in the Wasteland biome
60% more damage and reload speed with any firearm or bow when in the Wasteland biome
+50 loot stage and +80 trader stage when in the Wasteland biome

All these lines is better than most gears on they own.
It gives you the highest runspeed, highest dmg and attack speed, highest reload speed for late game weapons except 2 classes that are very specific.

I think it would be a better mod if you could keep the same armour through all zones as you don’t have to change the style you want to have going through the game.

A lot of these armors become almost useless when you move on to another zone too.

Remember that it’s heavy armor. If you don’t start putting points into strength, those bonuses will be heavily mitigated by the armor itself.

I personally don’t feel like going to different biomes makes other armors useless.

Also remember those values in the description are for tier 6 armor, you’re not going to have them right away. It’s high on purpose because armor became much harder to craft.

There are some armors in the vanilla game that no one will ever pick (like farmer, farming is too slow and tedious). I did my best to improve all of them, and some players were complaining about Nomad armor not being good enough for the hardest biome in the game, so i significantly improved it. The thing with this armor is that if you leave the biome, it gives you nothing. If you decide to live in the Wasteland, you can feel safer with this armor, but this doesn’t mean that other armors are useless, they just fit different play stiles. There is only 1 armor type getting a bonus from each biome.

Certain weapons are unusable without significant improvements to their spread, and if you use a weapon with nomad armor you will deal a lot of damage but your accuracy will suffer.

Yo. I just wanted to post that I’ve been playing 7DTD with pretty much all of your tweaks at once and it’s been a blast. Even been doing Insane Nightmare for a grand ol’ time. Thanks for the hard work man, everytime I figure an issue out there’s already a fix waiting.

This +Izayo’s weapon stuff is a great experience, that said quick question with Izy’s .45ACP weapons, would they possibly come under 9MM for Commando? Or is the boosting from Commando affecting the ammo type rather than the weapon tree?

Hello again!

Quite funny I was testing the sets and was about to write the athletic set needs a bit of love and the nerd one needs a nerf a little but you changed em already. Also was wondering about nomad but you changed it also so will give it another go

Also for the lumber one I was wondering… The chainsaw is nice but the sound gets annoying so fast so was wondering if you could buff the use of steel axe or w/e more over the chainsaw…also guess the auger would be annoying over time as well.

Hello!

Inc little wall of text! 🙂

first of all me and 3 other friends are loving these sets, feels nice to go for a full armor set piece than just the typical broken set.
I’ve wanted to learn to do some modding to change the set pieces myself or at least make em 2/4 3/4 and 4/4 giving way better set bonuses than the ones currently made from the fun pimps but you kinda made em nice and unique.
I like theory crafting new ideas of how to make a build with your sets and also the better perks haha.
Currently trying a full brawler type but the only armor im aimed toward is the raider armor since its the only one affecting the knuckles (attack speed) other than the biker which is just 50% dmg and 30% attack speed, the other ones being shotgun which isnt really in the same line of brawling/melee type thing.

I was also wondering about a build using a harvesting tool, maybe that 2h steel axe, could be nice to see someone with a 2h axe just slashing through haha but then again I would have to use the raider set again making that axe swing 100% faster unless its not considered a melee weapon… then lumber jack but 100% block dmg isnt counted toward physical dmg? Im too new still but would test it and see if its fun

I was also wondering if you were meddling with the idea of making the armor be upgradable, like assassin needing lets say 2 piece of assassin chest with x number of mats (not something too easy, like make em 5 or 10 legendary parts) to make the chest nightstalker or w/e the new name and further increasing or gaining new stats/bonuses.
To me that would give ppl even more meaning to go farm for “better loot” and new build ideas

anyway thats what I have for now, keep em coming loving it ! 😀

Remember that each armor piece also gives you bonuses. Raider gloves give you damage bonus to all melee weapons.
Yes axes get 100% damage bonus to entities as well and is considered as melee weapon.

Same goes for pickaxes.

As far as your upgrades idea that’s not something i plan in adding as it would just not be vanilla anymore at that point.

I’m happy to hear you and your friends enjoy my mods, have fun! ♥️

The Nerd set is not allowing to use three turrets now. Only two are active with everything maxed out

@smite05 unfortunately, due to how the addition of active turrets is code, i cannot add extra turrets via buffs or via requirements. This simply means that this specific bonus does not work and will not work unless developers change it. I will think of a new improvement to replace it with.

HI; All of these look great!

My only concern is the assassin armor potentiality to corrupt the server. It has a lot of good stuff already; would it be possible to make a version available to removed the Triple Shot?

You can remove it yourself from the xml file
just remove these two lines from the buffs.xml file under the assassin armor bonuses:

do the new values show up on the armor itself? or is there a way to tell it’s working? maybe i’m missing something – threw the “better full armorset 1-6” in mods folder, launched the game, but my armor doesn’t look any different.. not sure if you have to recraft maybe?

There was no way for me to show all the values on the armor, though, you can find more information on the description under your full armor bonus

I was just a dumby and wasn’t wearing a full set – I did have a question though, for the 1-6, how does the armor take the value? like.. if i have level 1 head piece, level 3 chest, 2 hands and feet of a full set.. will it give me the bonus as if i were level 1? or level 3? or some combination of that?

Why are there no increases in farm efficacy type set bonuses for the farmer set like with the miner set?

Because farmer armor already get those from the singular armor pieces, though farmer armor still needs some improvements so I’ll maybe add more farming related bonuses.

I encountered an issue on a dedicated 1.0 server, where I had 2 arrows remaining, and the assassin set reloaded 3. This put my arrow count at “-1 / 0” and since that point I haven’t been able to load back into the server.

(1.0 Server running only two mods – your armour set mod and perk mod).

oh damn that is a big issue, i didn’t know that could happen. Do you have a backup of the save?
I don’t think i can do anything to fix it but at this point i’m debating if i should remove the bonus since it can cause problems like this

Try to edit the XML file and remove the part that allows the bow to reload 3 arrows, see if that also lets you join the world, please. The line is under the assassin armor in buffs.xml

One gives unique skills to tier 6 only armor, other gives unique skills to all tiers (1-6).
2nd one seems to be preferred by the majority of players.

Perfect, another question, I downloaded the file 1-6 but I think the mod didn’t work, because the status of the sets didn’t change, or do they only change when all the parts are used?

It’s called “full armor set bonuses”
To get the bonus, you need to have all 4 pieces of the SAME armor, or else it will not work!

For example, if you want the Assassin bonus, you need to have 4 assassin armor equipped.
