Usual caveats here: I'm still kinda new to scripts and quests. I did a lot of testing to get this thing working, but plausible there's something which needs to be tweaked.
From what I understand of the implementation it should work on existing saves, but the USSEP one in particular was a bit finnicky (had to put a second catch in there, likely because USSEP has some cleanup preventing one script from firing every time - which is a GOOD thing, but made the hook harder to catch). As such, I'm not going to promise it'll work on an existing save. At the very least, give a shot clearing one (non-Sorine) radiant quest and see if that triggers it.
That being said, it SHOULD work without issue if it's installed before you've recruited Gunmar and Sorine.
This mod does appear to work eventually if installed on an existing save. I installed it in the middle of a Dawnguard playthrough, after rescuing Florentius (at which point I learned how insanely weirdly the Dawnguard quests work, having done all the "ancient technology" ones but ignored every other radiant quest). Florentius sent me to Isran to do one of his radiant quests, but after that he sent me to go get the warhammer, and now immediately after that he sent me to go get the shield. Thanks for making this!
The shield's effects probably function like the Bloodskal blade and Ebony Blade in the sense that their enchantments are actually perks that only the player can have.
Oh, sorry, figured that's what you meant. Is there really much reason to put things on Bethesda for PC? Airways seemed more straightforward to use a mod manager to me, but it'd be no real trouble to put it there too.
New version of dawnguard tweaks just came out, reading the description makes me think this will need a corresponding update. I'll try to get to it within the next couple days.
Hasn't happened yet. I posted on reddit but I'm kinda-sorta retired. I'm trying to crank through all these random opens I have this week and next week.
Does this at all edit starting the quest Bolstering the Ranks and/or are you thinking of making the dialogue from Sorine that prompts the beginning of Bolstering the Ranks to get Florientus a "targetable" dialogue option?
If memory serves, I didn't edit that quest, just passed it in to other stuff. I don't have any plans to revisit this unless someone finds a bug, sorry :)

This is the non-ussep link, I think, but there's a USSEP one too
Filing a bug on myself
Doesn't look like an update was needed :)
