Amulet of Articulation (orig. "Amulet of Articulation")- amulet in the game TES V: Skyrim.

Brief information

Properties

Its enchantment provides a bonus to the Speech skill and increases the likelihood of successfully using persuasion when talking to someone. The amulet is also unusual in that it is one of the very few amulets in the game that provide a bonus to the armor worn by the hero.

Related Quests

• Change of leadership (original Under New Management)- Become the Guild Master of the Thieves Guild.

Note

• Wearing the Amulet of Articulation allows the hero to automatically succeed when using persuasion during all dialogues in the game, regardless of skill.
• The amulet also increases the "Eloquence" perk, which increases the value of "articulation", and therefore, by wearing the amulet, you can test its effect when buying and selling items with an improved price.
• The description may be misleading because... uses completely wrong values.
• While it provides a bonus to armor and benefits to the Light Armor skill, it does not affect the Magic Armor perk of the Alteration skill.

Level Statistics

Bugs

• There are seven different versions of the Amulet of Articulation that a hero can obtain (and an eighth version, for specific characters), varying in strength by enchantment. Apparently, initially the amulet was supposed to correspond to the level of the character who received it, but instead, the amulet is obtained randomly. You can get the strongest one by repeatedly loading saves and talking to Brynjolf, although this may take a while.

Preface.

Requirements: Skyrim, Update, Dawnguard, Dragonborn

The rings and amulets present in the mod are taken from the nexus (some of the textures are mine), most likely you have already seen them in different mods, but to be honest, installing a bunch of mods with unnecessary junk does not warm me up, besides, mod rings and amulets can be worn individually on standard places, so I made a collection for wearing 2 amulets, 6 rings and a mask at the same time.

All rings are visible on the hands, but in order for the rings to be visible in first-person mode, the races had to be edited, and this entails possible conflicts for those who play with the changed race. In short, in the archive there is a folder "1stPerson", there is an esp file with edited races, so that the rings are visible in first-person mode, use either it or the main file.

The mod is designed for the most difficult level of the game with additional mods for tough gameplay.

Don’t even hint about unlimited wearing of rings and amulets, because it’s pure cheating.

The screenshots were taken from the CreationKit editor, because many people have different lighting settings and game textures, so it will all look different in the game.

When creating the mod, I was guided by this: Clothes slots in the Creation Kit - http://site/publ/skyrim/sloty_odezhdy_v_creation_kit/6-1-0-215

Slots involved:
slot 46 - for the middle finger of the right hand
slot 48 - for the ring finger of the right hand
slot 45 - for the index finger of the left hand
slot 49 - for the middle finger of the left hand
slot 58 - for the ring finger of the left hand
slot 55 - for amulets

Since the mod affects some slots, there may be problems with displaying things from other mods that use these same slots, for example, if in some mod you have pants on slot 58, then when you put on a ring using this slot you will be without pants, but but in the ring.

So, let's begin.

Gold rings, all on the middle finger of the left hand (slot 49) - Gold ring with diamond (l), Gold ring with emerald (l), Gold ring with ruby ​​(l), Gold ring with sapphire (l). New models use in-game ring textures.
Requires a gold bar and a flawless gem to craft.

Rings of the dragon priests, all on the ring finger of the left hand (slot 58). New models use in-game mask textures.
A mask is required to make. The rings can be exchanged back for a mask (for example, to get the Konarik mask) in the location “Sanctuary of Bromjunar” (where we get by wearing a wooden mask), there will be a stone with a sign hanging on the wall, we activate it and ALL the priest rings in the inventory will be exchanged for the corresponding masks.

Water breathing ring - on the middle finger of the left hand (slot 49), using a new Golden Ring with a sapphire. You can find it in the Robber's Cave location, where bandits on the road demand payment for passage. The enchantment can be removed.

Ring of walking on water - on the middle finger of the left hand (slot 49), a new Golden Ring with a sapphire is used. You can find it on the river near Whiterun, where the saber tooth is next to the chest, there are bones lying around, there is a ring hanging on your hand, the enchantment can be removed.

Enchanter's Ring - on the middle finger of the left hand (slot 49), a new Golden Ring with a ruby ​​is used. + 15 to enchantment. The enchantment cannot be removed and is not for sale. You can find it in the college of magicians at the enchanter's bed.

Night vision ring - on the middle finger of the right hand (slot 46), a new model with its own texture. The enchantment cannot be removed, the ring cannot be sold. You can find it on a nightstand in Riverside Outpost near Whiterun.

Ring of light - on the middle finger of the right hand (slot 46), a new model with its own texture. The enchantment cannot be removed, the ring cannot be sold. You can find it in the "Pelagius Wing" of the Blue Palace on the skeleton's finger. And yes, no flying interfering lights, the light is orange.

Ring of Jurgen the Windcaller - on the index finger of the left hand (slot 45), a new model with its own texture. When wearing the ring, the “Word of Fus” ability is added to you - you lose your balance 30% less often, and opponents lose their balance 30% more often, damage resistance +15, and when worn, you are healed of sores. The ring can be enchanted. Not for sale. You can find it in the Ustengrev tomb according to the main quest, it is located in a secret room that opens with a lever (ring with a chain), the play room is located in the first location, and not in the depths.

Rjorn's ring - on the middle finger of the left hand (slot 46), a new model with its own texture. The ring belonged to the legendary bard, who inspired many warriors by beating his drum. But as it turns out, the whole point is not in the drum (for which you will be sent to the bard guild), but in its ring. When you put on the ring, you will have the ability "Bard's Knowledge" (granted by the black book from Dragonborn), the ring itself can be enchanted. Look in the same place as Rjorn's drum, in Holdir's cairn, a skeleton hand will stick out from under the stone, on which there will be a ring.

Weather protection ring - on the middle finger of the right hand (slot 46), a new model with a gaming texture. The ring is leveled, self-renewing (just take it off and put it on again) - protection from heat, cold and lightning from 12% to 35%. The enchantment cannot be removed, the ring cannot be sold. The ring is in the possession of the dark elf Drelas, who lives in his home in the vastness of Skyrim.

The Khajiit Ring is a ring that is not used by the game, a game model. When you put on the ring, you become invisible and move at increased speed for 30 seconds. The enchantment cannot be removed, the ring cannot be sold. The ring is in the possession of the Khajiit assassin J'datarr, whom Malborn will ask you to get rid of (if he is alive, of course).

Gaming:

Non-lot tracking ring - on the middle finger of the left hand (slot 49), a new Gold ring with a ruby ​​is used.
Bone Hawk Ring (from Dawnguard) - in the CreationKit editor, dressing slots have been added and the priority has been increased, I’ll explain why - since the model consists of 3 rings on 3 fingers and it’s all hung on one ring slot, then when putting on, for example, an additional ring of the sanctity of marriage and Azidal's rings of necromancy, they will be displayed mixed up, so that they would be displayed normally without overlapping models with each other, they had to be edited, now when wearing the above rings, only the bone hawk ring will be displayed, because The display priority is higher, but other rings will still be worn. The ring model is not affected or modified.

Well, at the same time, the “Mage’s Hoop” (the one that the archmage gives you) has become self-updating in level (remove and put on) - increasing magic from 50 to 100. The hoop should not have already been received, because this is a new hoop.

The amulet of articulation (level) has not undergone alteration, because you can convince with the amulet of a bard.

That's all. And have a good game.
Use the mod as you wish.

First Lessons - MG01

Everything was going just fine until the old fool decided to treat me like a laboratory skeever. Standing with the amulet raised and waiting for him to deign to remember the spell... Simply humiliating!

From the diary of Olauron of Alinor

Arriving in Winterhold, head along the only street to the stone bridge. You will be greeted by an Altmer woman named Faralda who will tell you that the gate on the other side of the bridge will not open. Tell her you want to join the college. The elf will warn that the path to magical powers is not open to everyone, and then she will assign a test. You can try to persuade her (requires an eloquence skill of 100 or an Amulet of Articulation equipped) or, if you need to get into the college for the task “Ancient Knowledge” (Elder Knowledge), introduce yourself as a Dovahkiin and demonstrate the ability to shout. Otherwise, you will need to cast one of the following spells (selected randomly):

• Firebolt
• Conjure Flame Atronach
• Fear
• Magic light (Magelight)
• Healing Hands

The absence of a spell is not an obstacle to passing the test: in this case, the elf will sell it for 30 gold, which sometimes allows you to save on buying a tome.

The target of all spells, except the last one, is the symbol of the College of Winterhold next to Faralda: the eye of Magnus surrounded by five rays, symbolizing magical schools. The target of the last spell is the sorceress herself.

Follow the elf lighting magic wells along the way. In the courtyard of the college, approach Ancano and Mirabelle Ervine talking, and then turn to the Breton woman. The master wizard will give the guild student the Novice Hood, Novice Robes of Destruction, Boots due to the guild student and offer to show the board.

Mirabella will take you to the Hall of Attainment and show you the first room on the right for the new student, in the cabinets and chests of which you can safely store loot. Returning to the courtyard, the Breton woman will point to the Hall of the Elements and direct Tolfdir to a lecture.

Go inside and approach the old man with the other students. Regardless of the answer, prepare to cast a Lesser Ward spell, which Tolfdir will teach if necessary. At the signal, activate and hold the amulet until the teacher strikes.
