📋 About This Mod
This mod does 3 things:
-
[]Slows skill level-up speed by up to 50%, on a skill-by-skill basis.
[
]Raises training costs by 50%. - Swaps the governing attributes of a few skills for less of a headache.
The optional file reduces skill level-ups necessary to reach higher Attribute multipliers. See all the changes below:
Changes
Governing Attributes
MYSTICISM: Willpower > Intelligence
This allows for easier leveling of Intelligence without spamming Conjuration spells.
SECURITY: Intelligence > Agility
This fits better for thief builds and balances out with the Mysticism attribute change.
SPEAR: Endurance > Strength
This no longer forces anyone to prioritize leveling Spear (a random offensive skill) just to increase their Health.
ARMORER: Strength > Endurance
This adds a non-combat skill to Endurance to supplement the leveling (Strength already has a non-combat skill - Acrobatics), and Strength already had too many skills in general.
Below is the complete list of skills and attribute changes:
Strength: Acrobatics, Axe, Blunt, Long Blade, SPEAR
Intelligence: Alchemy, Conjuration, Enchant, MYSTICISM
Willpower: Alteration, Destruction, Restoration
Agility: Block, Light Armor, Marksman, SECURITY, Sneak
Speed: Athletics, Hand-to-Hand, Short Blade, Unarmored
Endurance: ARMORER, Heavy Armor, Medium Armor
Personality: Illusion, Mercantile, Speechcraft

iTrainingMod= 10 -> 15
Training costs have been increased by a flat 50%.

Gent's Slower Level-up Overhaul reduces skill XP gain by up to 50%, making leveling more gradual and content-friendly. It's a lightweight tweak for players who want a longer, more deliberate progression curve without overhauling the entire skill system.
