📋 About This Mod

This mod adds craftng recipes for various faction armor (without enchantments)

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Craftable Faction Armor Sets lets you craft faction armor sets (currently Thieves Guild variants) at a forge, with quest prerequisites and lore-friendly conditions. It solves the tedium of console-command enchanting and duplicate sets. For Skyrim players who want faction gear without the hassle.

✨ Key Features

Adds craftable recipes for the Normal Thieves Guild Armor and the Variant Thieves Guild Armor (grey-white, similar to Linwe's armor).
Requires completing the quest 'Taking Care of Business' to unlock crafting.
Recipes are found under the MISC category at a forge.
Crafting components include Leather and Leather Strips; tempering uses Leather.
Aims to be immersive and lore-friendly with conditions for each set.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solves a real pain point—no more console commands to strip enchantments or duplicate sets.
  • Lore-friendly approach with quest prerequisites feels natural.
  • Community-approved with 473 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only two armor sets implemented so far—if you wanted other factions, you're out of luck.
  • Last updated in 2016, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods.
  • Crafting recipes are under MISC, which might clutter your forge menu if you have many mods.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love faction armor but hate the vanilla grind of console commands and enchantment juggling. If you're a Thieves Guild fan, this is a must-have. Skip if you want craftable armor for all factions—this only covers the Thieves Guild for now.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you've completed 'Taking Care of Business' before trying to craft—otherwise the recipes won't show up.
  • Check your forge's MISC category, not the armor section, for the recipes.
  • If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
