📋 About This Mod
Schwertleite Armor & Weapons for the CBBE SSE Body with BodySlide Support
First:
This is a port to Skyrim Special Edition based on the work of XiNAVRO/XenoGenesis. The original mod has open permissions.
Original Mod: Schwertleite Set
For the reworked version I used assets from different mods (see credits) with open permissions.
my ported mods go to the original mod authors to 100 percent. When you feel you should donate, please give some money to the animal shelter next to you.

Description:
A female armor for the CBBE body made with pieces from various armor mods, Schwertleite comes with a one-handed longsword and a shield of a similar design scheme. The name, Schwertleite, was taken from Wagner's opera Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Nibelung), one of the Walkure (Valkyrie) to be specific.
During working with the mod I felt that there were many asstes with very low-res textures which are not up to date in my eyes. Since I am not a texture-artist and not be able to make super hi-res new textures, I decided to rework the set. The original set can still be choosen during the installation.
For the reworked version I substituted many assets. I converted the armor meshes to CBBE SSE. There are prebuild meshes for CBBE Curvy in a static and a physics version. Beyond that there are BodySlide files available. In addition I added a couple of matching weapons.
All items can be crafted and tempered. Compared to the original mods I chanched the receipts a bit. In addition I reduced the stats of the items because they were way to overpowered. The stats of the items are comparable to ebony-gear now.
For crafting you will need the crafting perk: EBONY
A patch for the mod Auto Unequip Shields to Back is available. Frostfall compatibility is integrated.
This mod is completely standalone. No other items of the original game will be overwritten. The meshes are optimized with Nif-Optimizer.
I created different versions of the mod:
This mod adds a female-only armor set called Schwertleite, complete with a matching shield and various weapons. It's a port of an original mod by XiNAVRO, brought to Skyrim Special Edition by Hilli. With over 1,200 endorsements and nearly 30,000 downloads, it's a well-received cosmetic addition for players seeking new gear.
