📋 About This Mod
This is a simple mod to modify and add better values to all legendary and unique gear in the game. In particular Legendary rewards like The Helm of Oreyn Bearclaw (which was a previous Daedric prince reward) and direct rewards from Daedric quests, end game and faction rewards.
If you ever were bored and threw your rewards immediately after getting them, since you already had better self enchanted items, then this is the mod for you.
Most items are made to scale while at the end I started to only enchance the highest rank of the leveled item. This is why I recommend a leveling mod for your gear. This mod is intended mostly for late game, since the items or weapons are sometimes ON A TARGET you will have more difficulty in defeating them so install this at your own risk if you are a newbie or your character isn't strong enough yet.
I will be adding more as time goes by and I start playing the game again but for now I will focus mostly on Daedric/guild rewards and I will add every modification in the description below.

Helm of Clavicus Vile
Added +20 Speechcraft bonus to the helmet. 1250 Health rather than the 750 it had (1000 normal daedric) and changed the price to 7000 (from 1400).
Valdemar's Shield
Modified the shield values to be the same at every level you get it (1/10/15/20) to 1250 health, 2500 value and the same Enchantment value of 15% Reflect damage. (from 500/750/1000/1250 very cheap price and a scaling 6/8/10/9% reflect for some reason it was said the last enchantment is actually weaker; I actually replaced the enchantment with a personal NEW enchantment spell as to not modify other items using it).
Aegis of the Apocalypse
Changed the AR from 13. 75 to 16 as there are better armors of the same type with 15 AR and this is UNIQUE. Health from 1000 to 1500.
Changed the Enchantments from Fortify Blade/Blunt/HeavyArmor +5 to +10. Changed price to 9000 from 5000.
Apron of Adroitness
Modified Health, Value, Weight and AR from 150/200/290/450/750/1100, 15/35/90/225/600/1800, 5/7. 5/9/11/13/15, 5/6. 25/8/8. 75/10/12. 5 To one single value of 1200, 2500, 15, 13.
Also changed the enchant from 5/6/7/8/9/10 Intelligence and Agility to a constant 15.
Tower of the Nine
Changed Health from 1000 to 1250, Value from 3300 to 5000.
Modified Enchant from +5 Block to +15, +5 HeavyArmor to +10, +5 Shield to +10, -10 LightArmor to -15.
