About this mod
Adds a reasonable DT buff to the beefier-looking "Merc Outfits" to put them on a similar level to the ubiquitous Leather Armor.

Description:
The Merc Outfits always seemed a little beefier to me than the typical set of clothing and felt it would be interesting to give early-game characters a set of armor outside of the typical Leather/Metal Armor sets.
In addition, did you know each outfit (except for the Merc Veteran Outfit) has a unique variant? These variants have slightly better DT in vanilla, are worn by only specific NPCs (or not distributed at all), and carry the same name as their generic versions. This mod incorporates the unique versions of the outfits into the game by including them in the Merc Outfit leveled lists and adding a "Reinforced" suffix to their name. These outfits will still remain exceedingly rare, but just slightly better than leather armor.
Summary of Changes:
- Increased DT for all Merc Outfits (except for visual outliers) to roughly match Leather Armour
- Merc Grunt Outfit (undershirt and cargo pants) stats remain unchanged as it resembles clothing
- Merc Troublemaker (heavy jacket w/ bandolier), upgraded to medium armour with an even greater DT bonus
- Renamed the rare, unique variants of the outfits to include a "Reinforced" suffix, added them to leveled lists
