✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a common pain point—enchanting in Morrowind can be a slog, and this mod cuts through that grind.
- Simple, focused tweak that doesn't overhaul other systems, so it's easy to understand what you're getting.
- Decent niche following (90 endorsements) for a small quality-of-life mod.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020—may not be compatible with the latest OpenMW versions.
- No detailed documentation or patch notes provided, so you're flying blind on exact values.
- Only tweaks enchant capacity and ease—if you wanted a deeper enchanting overhaul, this won't satisfy.
For OpenMW players who find enchanting too restrictive and want a more forgiving system without a full overhaul. Skip if you're looking for complex new mechanics or if you're on a recent OpenMW build and wary of outdated mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you're running OpenMW, not the original Morrowind engine—this mod is built for OpenMW.
- Since it's a simple tweak, you can easily remove it if you don't like the changes—just delete the files.
- Check the mod's page for any compatibility notes with other enchanting mods before installing.
