In addition, the skills "Dwarven", "Orcish", "Ebony", "Daedric", and "Dragon" can be acquired to create weapons and armor in the smithing forge.
You can also upgrade your equipment with better performance.
You will need the equipment and some materials to replace it.
Known Issues
Skirt mesh shape may be broken when moving to an area where screen switching occurs.
This is due to the HDT-SMP configuration file I adjusted.
Re-equipping Armor solves this problem.
I tried many times to avoid the problem, but could not improve it much.
If anyone has ideas to fix this problem, I would appreciate it if you could send me a message.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 586 endorsements and 56k downloads—clearly a lot of people are using it.
- Adds both armor and weapons, so you get a full visual upgrade for your heavy armor build.
- Last updated in 2022, so it's relatively recent and likely still works for most setups.
⚠️ Cons
- No details on crafting recipes or where to find the gear—you'll have to dig into the mod files or comments to figure that out.
- HDT-SMP means you'll need that physics framework installed, which can be a hassle to set up.
- Potential compatibility issues with other armor mods that alter the same body slots or use different physics setups.
For Skyrim players who want a new heavy armor set with matching axes, especially if you're into HDT-SMP physics. If you're not using HDT-SMP or prefer lightweight mods, this might not be for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have HDT-SMP installed and properly configured, or the armor physics won't work.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and manage the mod files.
- Check the mod's comments section for player reports on where to find the armor and axes, since the description doesn't specify.
