About this mod

Adds the rest of the Gilded Elven Armor set, makes all Gilded Elven pieces require Advanced Smithing to craft or improve, and makes Gilded Elven a set that benefits from Matched Set (Light Armor: 70).

Permissions and credits
I created this mod because I felt like the Gilded Elven Cuirass was out of place and I was frustrated that it didn't cause a matched set bonus. (In the end, Gilded Elven is its own set, and isn't compatible with regular Elven as a bonus for the Light Armor 70 perk: Matched Set)

All the Gilded Elven pieces have 20% more Armor Rating than the normal Elven pieces, rounded to the nearest whole number in keeping with Elven Gilded Cuirass being about 20% stronger than the regular Elven Armor.

I did not add any Gilded pieces to leveled lists or random enchanted item lists (I might consider it with enough interest/endorsements/comments). Currently, the only way to acquire these items is to build them at the forge, and it will require the Advanced Smithing perk. The recipes mostly require a single piece Quicksilver instead of a single piece of Leather (the Shield being the exception, it replaced an Iron Ingot with a Quicksilver Ingot).

Compatibility/Prerequisites:
DLC: This shouldn't require any of the DLC packs, I have them, though, so if someone without runs into issues, please say so.
Mods: This shouldn't require Lost Art of the Blacksmith, Smithing Perks Overhaul, and/or Weapons and Armor Fixes. If someone without runs into issues, please say so. (One of those mods tried to influence Elven Gilded Cuirass by giving it a second armor keyword, and I took it out to prevent 4x armor improving.)

Dirty Edits:
There might be some. This is my first mod editing objects, and I did it in the Creation Kit. I'd take constructive tips on how to cleanse them if they exist.
