There are three different versions: Arcane Warrior (light armor crafting tab), Original (medium armor crafting tab) and Reaver (heavy armor crafting tab).

]SetStore: Adds the sets schematics and accessories to the Crossroads store in the Hinterlands in case you want to use the mod before playing Trespasser. Can be safely uninstalled after you've made all the desired purchases.[]TheBindThatGuides: Contains the changes for the set's belt.
