Latest changes: The 2.2 light emitting versions are now uploaded with fewer versions and more unique effects.Each sword now only staggers undead with a decreased magnitude and does balanced damage again.I also retweaked the visual on-hit effects of each version to make them visually different and more unique.HERE YOU CAN SEE THE 2.2 LIGHT RADIUS AND STRENGTH USING RCRN CUSTOMIZER LIGHTING MOD:If you do not want the occasional bane undead explosion to disturb small objects or send them flying, check out Ekseth's 'Peaceful Explosion'"Peaceful Explosion" by Ekseth -My files are fully compatible with the 'Two-Handed Dawnbreaker' by gaijune (place his .esp above/before my mod in the load order)"Two-Handed Dawnbreaker" by Gaijune -If you want to be able to disenchant the one-handed Dawnbreaker, place the Master Enchanter.esp above/before my mod in the load order:"Master Enchanter" by Gid2525 -EzE's Artifact Disenchanting works tooThis video showcases how these mods work together, with an old brighter version (2.0)This mod replaces the enhancement on Meridia's Dawnbreaker sword with a lore friendly AOE effect. The most unique feature is a Starburst AOE attack of different elements that does extra sun damage to undead creatures. The weapon staggers undead enemies when they are hit by the actual blade and it is also fully upgradable with the Deadric smithing perk and has unlimited charges. You can find the sword by completing the quest 'The Break of Dawn' at Meridia's Temple, which is located southwest of Solitude. This mod requires Dawnguard and that you pick and use only one file version at a time!To make the Starburst Dawnbreaker a bit more viable for higher levels, it has been given the same base damage as the Daedric Sword (14). It is also fully upgradeable with the Arcane Blacksmith and Daedric Blacksmith perks. The drawback is that the enchanted damage values are quite low and can only be improved with perks from the destruction and restoration trees. You cannot add more enchantments to it, and you will only be able to temper the physical damage. It is designed to provide a visually stunning unique combat style that cripples most undead hordes reasonably well early on, while also being able to grow in physical power with the player and his or her perk choices along the way. The Stagger effect helps against stronger undead enemies, while the occasional fiery undead bane proc can also scare away their minions for a while. The light emitting effect makes it a great utility weapon for darker areas!If you are still contemplating if this mod is cool enough for you, watch the video below! It showcases the old Soulburst Dawnbreaker 1.0 version.The newer versions have slightly reduced AOE radius compared to this old video, and most have NO SOUL TRAP!Combat video with an old Sunburst effect:Please try them out and send me comments and messages about how balanced they are on your characters! :DRecommended load order for the compatible mods I've linked can be found here:
