📋 About This Mod
This mod was originally uploaded to Morrowind Modding History in 2013.
As the title implies, this mod changes the attributes governing certain skills. The way they were assigned in vanilla Morrowind made very little sense to me, they were often governed by attributes that had nothing to do with the gameplay style the skill catered to. Governing attributes play a large role in character development/leveling, so this was a rather annoying problem. These edits change them to be similar to how oblivion handles them.
You can see what I'm talking about by comparing the two.

Acrobatics- Speed (previously Strength)
Armorer- Endurance (previously Strength)
Block- Endurance (previously Agility)
Hand to Hand- Strength (previously Speed)
Light Armor- Speed (previously Agility)
Mysticism- Intelligence (previously Willpower)
Security- Agility- (previously Intelligence)
Short Blade- Agility (previously Speed)
Spear- Strength (previously Endurance)
This should be compatible with almost everything. I personally use it with Morrowind Rebirth.
