About this mod
Vanilla-style immersive names for the 10 tempering tiers of Adamant Smithing Addon. Can either replace the "+X" classic RPG-style tiers or use both "+X" AND immersive names together.

This is a tiny "mod" (actually just a .json file) that changes the names of the tempering/improvement tiers used in the Smithing Addon for Adamant - A Perk Overhaul. Pairs well with my Adamant smithing overhaul, SPARC, but doesn't require it.
Why make this? (feel free to skip if you don't care)
When I decided to use the Adamant Smithing Addon in my current playthrough, I was sure I would miss the Skyrim tempering tier names and resent the purely mechanical "+X" on all my weapons and armor. So I came up with an expanded list of 10 tiers, adding 4 new tier names to the 6 from vanilla. As it turns out, I actually enjoy the old school RPG feel of the +1 through +10 tier names, and find them really convenient -- I can tell at a glance that +3 is better than +1, but it may take my brain a second to remember if Flawless if better than Exquisite. So I created two versions of my custom list, and figured I'd share them for anyone else who might want to use them.
What's it do?
There are two options:
- Replace the +1 through +10 tempering tier names with more vanilla-like "Immersive" names
- Add the "immersive" names to the +1 through +10 tempering tier names, for a mix of immersion and practicality
Improvement names are appended to the end of the weapon/armor name, inside parentheses, just like in vanilla/Adamant.
Immersive Tempering Improvement Tiers, aka Replacer version:
Fine
Exceptional
Superior
Masterful
Exquisite
Flawless
Wondrous
Epic
Legendary
Mythic
Practical and Immersive Tempering Improvement Tiers, aka Hybrid version:
+1 - Fine
+2 - Exceptional
+3 - Superior
+4 - Masterful
+5 - Exquisite
+6 - Flawless
+7 - Wondrous
+8 - Epic
+9 - Legendary
+10 - Mythic
If your load order allows you to improve weapons/armor beyond +10 (i.e. you are not running Apothecary and Thaumaturgy), you'll just get the default +11 from there on. I didn't feel like murdering a thesaurus to come up with another 10 additional distinctive names, especially when I will never see them in my own game.
Requirements
- Adamant - a Perk Overhaul
- Adamant - Smithing Addon (under Optional Files on the Adamant mod page)
- Improvement Names Customized AE OR Improvement Names Customized SSE
Place this mod AFTER the requirements
Compatibility
Should be compatible with anything that's compatible with Adamant and Improved Names Customized. Obviously anything that modifies the tempering tier names will conflict.
