📋 About This Mod

Standalone MBSP with additional features

Recommended to be used with Uncapper and Improved Vanilla Leveling

Features:

  • []Effective Spell Cost Reduction

    Allows refunding magicka before the spell is cast, effectively turning the refunding into a magicka cost reduction (Note: it may be called experimental but should be safe to turn on)

    []Increased Spell Costs

    This mechanic can be used to make spells more expensive (Making spells fail immediately due to insufficient magicka)

    []

    XP Gains based on spell cost

    No more spamming 1 cost spells. The Base XP are halved and the rest depends on how much magicka you spend

    []

    Very customizable formulas

    The formulas are very flexible and should be able to cover all preferences

    []

    Always uses the correct spell costs

    Manually calculates the spell costs because the api can sometimes hold a wrong value

    []

    No Exploits or Glitches

    Changing the spell mid-cast won't change what is used for the calculation

    []

    Magic Window Integration

    When using the experimental refund mode, shows the adjusted costs and chances on the Magic Window Extender

    []

    API for Modders

    [/]

    []Lets you check what the next refund for the currently equipped spell will be, as seen with Roguelite's "Arcane Brute Force" and Pure Lua Multi Mark
