AEGIS - Anniversary Edition General Integration System

This mod sets out to fully integrate generic content from across Anniversary Edition into the game with no quest locking, either by removing short note only quests, or by adjusting the quest to only reward unique equipment.

This page is quite long as it details a lot of changes, I apologise for that but the wall of text is unavoidable in detailing what is going on.

The effects for each file are listed below.

AEGIS Primary Modules

(These modules are all standalone)

Alternative Armors Module

- All quests for these have been removed. (Note from the author: I don't dislike them, they are just small and add to the total of note driven quests. I don't think note quests are inherently bad, so long as there aren't too many of them. If you are looking for an alternative with quests, I would recommend On a Crimson Trail, a patch is available)

- Most sets are now integrated into levelled lists, complete with enchanted variants. This involved shuffling some of the levels around and clarifying some names, but no armors have been made unavailable. The lists can be seen in the mod's spreadsheet. Note that this intentionally does not replace ALL Skyrim armor on Solstheim, for example Reavers will sometimes wear either Skyrim or Solstheim gear.

- Some sets have been renamed or repurposed into Light armors to ensure consistency.

- Dwarven, Orcish and Daedric Alt Armors are used to fill gaps in Skyrim's gear progression.

- Most other Alt Armors are used to bring variation to Solstheim's gear progression to represent the time when it was governed by the East Empire Company.

- Certain sets are not levelled list integrated but can still be encountered, namely Elven Hunter (which now has a helmet), Orcish Plate and Stalhrim Fur.

- Daedric Light armor can be made at the Atronach Forge like the heavy set and recipes for this can be found where other recipes would.

- Guards may comment on these armors as with their vanilla counterparts.

- The Dragonbone Mail has been placed in the world and has been given a unique texture set. For those who wish to know where it can be found here.

- OPTIONAL: The Ring of Masser (from Daedric Mail) is restored, given a unique appearance and added to the Fishing artifact list.

Vigil Enforcer Module

- Silver Armor set created from Vigil Enforcer Helmet, Silver Hand Armor, Silver Hand Gauntlets and Silver Hand Boots, rebalanced down to Orcish level. This set is integrated into mainland Skyrim levelled lists starting at level 24.

- Silver Hand bosses will wear a set of Silver armor and the Silver Hand Helmet. Other Silver Hand may wear pieces of armor.

- Some NPCs will now wear Silver armor.

- Above items retextured to match Silver weapons in colour.

- Remaining Vigil armors sorted and distributed to Vigil members, including a new pauldron-less armor variant and hood to make sure there is some variance in the ranks.

- OPTIONAL: No Quest addon. No special edits, just disables the quest

Crossbows Module

(Elite Crossbows, Expanded Crossbow Pack and Rare Curios)

This is the successor to Rare
