NORTHERN STEEL
 
 
Vilkas: "You know the legends of the Tomb of Ysgramor."
Aela: "There the souls of the Harbingers will heed the call of northern steel."
 
 
Ancient Nord weapons and armor deserve better than a smattering of Frost Damage enchantments. This is where Northern Steel comes in.
 
 
FEATURES:

  • Enchanted bows.
  • Enchanted Ancient Nord Armor.
  • Ancient Nord/Honed/Supple weapons and armor are available with any base enchantment found in the game.
  • New Nord Hero armor set, including shield (iron model) and Helm Of Yngol variant.
  • Streamlined naming conventions (Honed Ancient Nord - > Ancient Nord Honed, Supple Ancient Nord -> Ancient Nord Supple).
  • Weapon rebalance: Ancient Nord = Steel, Honed/Supple = Elven, Hero = Ebony.
  • Armor rebalance: Ancient Nord = In between Iron & Steel, Hero = Orcish.
  • Honed/Supple weapons can be crafted. Honed/Supple/Hero items require Advanced Smithing.
  • All enchanted weapons added to relevant leveled lists. Armor pieces added as drops in boss chests.
  • Draugr Deathlords carry Nord Hero or enchanted Nord items instead of Ebony.
  • Carries forth USLEEP fixes.
 
 
Requires Dragonborn. This should be placed towards the end of your load order to resolve compatibility issues, and works with retextures. Thank you to Kryptopyr for the essential Weapons And Armor Fixes Remade, which was a big inspiration.

CCOR / WAFR compatible version: Adds new enchantments, Nord Hero Shield & Circlet, and edits leveled lists. Does not alter any stats or crafting recipes.

Vanilla stats / leveled list version: Adds new enchantments, and edits leveled lists. No stat changes or new base items. Should be used alongside USLEEP.

Please note: This was made for personal use, therefore I'm hesitant to make changes to the balance of the mod. If there's enough interest I'll consider an alternate version, but I don't have a lot of free time, so I can't promise anything.
