Improved Kaer Morhen Starting Gear

Improved Starting Gear

Description:

Minor improvements and renamed starting gear to Kaer Morhen gear, to make it more consistent and more useful in the early stages of the game.

Overall changes:

All starting gear have been improved in all game modes (NG, NG +, HoS & BaW Only). Included fix for Viper Swords in White Orchard and fix "nonhumans" bonus viper silver sword. And more litle fixes in NG and NG +.

— make Kaer Morhen starting gear of green "Witcher Gear" quality instead of being common;

— slightly improves stats;

— renamed items to consistently be "Kaer Morhen" instead of the generic names they have in vanilla, so they properly look like a witcher set.

— fixed Viper Swords in White Orchard and slightly improved stats this set swords;

— Kaer Morhen starting gear it's now "Light Armor".

The mod has three versions with different swords: Vanilla swords; New swords (it's recommended to use and my favorite) and E3 swords. Please, see screenshots for detail.
