Description:
A simple mod that edits Sinderion's vendor chest and rare Alchemy Vendors to include Master Quality Alchemy Apparatus from the start.
In vanilla versions of Oblivion, better Alchemy Apparatus is random leveled loot obtainable from alchemy vendors and conjurer/necromancer dungeons. Unfortunately, alchemy merchants never sell Master Alchemy Apparatus and you are just as likely to obtain lower tier alchemy apparatus as leveled loot from dungeons even at Level 17+.
People usually resort to quick-saving/loading outside of boss chests to obtain a full set of Master Quality Apparatus as a result. Sinderion is a master alchemist and Alchemy Trainer yet does not use nor provide better alchemy apparatus, this mod simply makes it so that Master Alchemy Apparatus is obtainable at any time without any hassle as long as you have the gold.
Another lore-friendlier version, Sinderion's Master Alchemy Apparatus (Vendor Chest) is now available, where only Sinderion will sell Master Alchemy Apparatus.
Sinderion's Better Nirnroot Quest Reward edits the quest "Seeking Your Roots" to provide progressively better Alchemy Apparatus (10 Nirnroot for a full set of Journeyman Alchemy Apparatus etc.) along with the regular Elixirs of Exploration. Hopefully this makes the reward align with the tediousness of the quest.
Edit: It appears that this edit causes Master Alchemy Apparatus to spawn in other rare alchemy vendors, this is caused by the Unofficial Oblivion Patch editing Sinderion's vendor chest to [ChestVendorAlchemyIngredRareI01] which is used by other rare alchemy vendors.

The lore-friendly vendor chest version may conflict with mods that edits Sinderion's Basement interior cell, while the quest reward version may conflict with mods that affect Sinderion's Nirnroot Quest [MS39].
