About this mod

This mod is bringing a new Kaer Morhen Witcher School Armor Set in The Witcher 3, because I always felt this iconic armor deserved more than a starting armor set with some of the lowest stats in the game, so I decided to make it a new Witcher School Set with interesting stats.

This mod is bringing a new Kaer Morhen Witcher School Armor Set, with 5 tiers, a little treasure hunt to find the rewards of schematics. Obtainable during the Wolf School Witcher Armor set treasure hunt or with debug console commands. To be honest, it's obviously going to rock the Wolf Set bonuses, since it's still the wolf school, but with more impressive stats.

Work great with mods that changes Kaer Morhen set appearance, I personally use Killing Monsters Arm Pads for Kaer Morhen Armor , the mod that really motivated me to do this, because it's looking so badass and it ressemble more to what it should've been from the beginning!  I could not let this iconic armor stay among the lowest tiers sets for the player, especially with this look! Now it's truly worthy of The Witcher covers and trailers and it makes me feel more like Geralt, I hope you will like it aswell :)

Banjomir Kaer Morhen Armor Mods appearances can be a nice alternative to Killing Monster

Screenshots will be replaced eventually, a lot of values have changed, I have to mention the armor points are with Armor Scaling Mods on a Level 100 Geralt.

Recommended : Balanced Item Level Scaling

This mod allows Geralt to craft these 5 tiers of the Kaer Morhen armor set, with their respectives schematics that you receive in some steps of the treasures hunt to find Wolf School Armor Set. Each with interesting stats and bonuses, making Kaer Morhen Set still relevant after you found all these Witcher School Equipments.


This mod adds the following 6 armor sets, including the schematics to craft them :

  • Kaer Morhen Warrior Armor Set
  • Enhanced Kaer Morhen Armor Set
  • Superior Kaer Morhen Armor Set
  • Mastercrafted Kaer Morhen Armor Set
  • Grandmaster Kaer Morhen Armor Set
  • Geralt of Rivia's Kaer Morhen Armor Set

Version 1.6 include new diagrams! When you wake up from your dream in Kaer Morhen, you obtain new schematics to craft the full original Kaer Morhen Set!
New Kaer Morhen Warrior Armor set and the schematics to craft it, you will obtain them when you'll find Hendrik's note! 

And all their New Game Plus Alternative Names Counter parts! (Exemple : Grandmaster Kaer Morhen Legendary Armor)
I also made sure to respect the vanilla naming convention so it doesn't look like it was added by a mod

Please, take in consideration I'm using an item scaling mod, so maybe your Kaer Morhen armor isn't going to be as high leveled as mine, it would've been a long process to remove my item scaling mod to take some screenshots, but I can simply recommend you to use one, my favorite is Balanced Item Level Scaling.

It's not designed for an easy playthrough. I recommend to play on Death March with Enemies Scaling On. Also, you have to get the Grand Master Wolven Armor and EP1 Viper armor for the 4th tier, it's an end-game armor, you're not supposed to obtain it at the beginning of the game. I'm not responsible if you're tearing drowners in slices in White Orchard because you wanted to get the 5th tier while starting your adventure. There's 5 tiers, my best advice is to stick to the Enhanced (1) - Superior (2) if you're playing at lower difficulty than Death March, or to not use it. The armor points are WITH my scaling mod, they will be lower on an installation that do NOT contain any equipment scaling mod. If you're unhappy with the stats, the best I can do is to send you the files that contain the stats, to let you adjust them as you wish (which doesn't take any modding skills other than some common sense) and I'll release your customized version as an alternative. So if you want it so bad, you will contribute on it. If you're not willing to do so, then stick to lower tiers, raise difficulty or don't use it. Thanks

The main point of the mod is to add more value to the Kaer Morhen Armor and add more sets, so you can upgrade it in your playthrough, with multiple tiers, just like other Witcher School Armor Sets.

How to install :

1. Place folder "modKaerMorhenWitcherSchoolGear" into your /mods folder
2. Run script merger, MERGE your xmls or make sure this one isn't overwritten by another conflicting file
3. Have fun!
4. Feedbacks and endorse if you liked it:)
5. Play in Death March!

It's made for Next Gen. The Old Gen Early Version is out, I made it really fast because I was going to sleep after a long day but I made it just before so people who still play on Old gen could try it tonight.

This is the first release of this mod so I'm always interested in getting feedbacks in case something would not work as intended, please keep in mind I'm still a beginner in modding, but I'm doing my best to improve people's experience including mine, one step at a time. I tested it multiple times, but there's so much stuff to miss, we never know. A gentle remind will be greatly appreciated if there's anything. This mod is like my testing dummy for what's coming soon and the results are going to determine when the next one (95% ready) is coming! Most ideas I implemented in this one, were originally in the next mod, something that will probably please those who like armor mods. See you soon:)
