I have tried desperatly to find a mod that give me more things to craft, like guard armors and shields and other stuff that you normaly can't craft, that is also tied into the smithing perks, so that you can't craft everything without the right perks.
I tried more craftables and complete crafting overhaul, which seems to be the most popular ones. Problems is, that they also add stuff that you alread CAN craft, meaning that alot of stuff is there two or 3 times, but with different ingridience requirements. And that totally ruins the immersion for me to see that mess.
I also tried lost art of the blacksmith. Looks promising, as it doesn't just give me everything from the get go, but ties the armors into the perk tree. But I don't think this mod has craftable guard armors and shields like riften guard armor or whiterun guard armor.. And this is something I need.. I only have one perk in crafting so far, and that didn't unlock guard armors, and I doubt that it lies in glass smithing or dragon smithing.
So which crafting mod to you guys recommend? Maybe a combination of a few mods, to get a better crafting experience, that also includes guard armors, and that doesn't dublicate armors..
Any help would be appriciated, thanks!
