Introduction
If you know me well enough by this point, I am a massive fan of Dragon Priests. I love their criminally sparse lore, and boy, do I love their aesthetic, to their imposing armor and their awesome masks. But in the vanilla game, it was just the masks. Well, Miraak got a full set of equipment, at least, but that was it. If you're like me, you were absolutely bothered by the fact that the masks didn't go well with most armor sets in the game. So I decided to be the change I wanted to see in the world.
Armory of the Dragon Cult expands upon Skyrim’s Dragon Priest Masks with full sets of armor for each named priest. Please note that the main version of the mod requires Artificer, which covers the masks, as well as King-Priest, which overhauls Dragon Priests themselves. This is so I can build upon previously existing work, as vanilla masks are pretty hard to build a good set around (in my opinion, anyway), and the vanilla enemies are very lackluster once you pass level 20. For those of you using other artifact/enchanting overhauls, a lite version without these requirements is available.
How to Obtain the Armors
You obtain the armors simply by killing the Dragon Priest that wore them in life. Robes are clothing, but can be upgraded to armor at a forge using their respective material.
Armor Sets
When wearing a full set of Dragon Priest Armor, you benefit from the set bonus "Empowered Voice" which makes your Shouts 25% stronger and last 50% longer.
Unenchanted light/heavy armor sets that are obtained from generic Dragon Priests. With King-Priest, generic Dragon Priests have a chance to spawn in place of a Draugr boss starting at level 25, as well as one being the end boss for Bleak Falls Barrow.

Versions
Main Version
This version requires King-Priest and Artificer, and is how the mod was originally intended to be experienced. All enchantments and values are designed around these mods. Contains the Bronze/Corundum Scale sets, which are meant to be used with the respective masks added by King-Priest, as well as the Vahlok set, which is also designed to be used with King-Priest's Vahlok mask.
Lite Version
This version does not require King-Priest or Artificer, and does not have the Bronze/Corundum Scale sets. While the Vahlok set is obtainable, there will be no matching mask. This version is the most compatible with modlists not using King-Priest and/or Artificer.
