📋 About This Mod

Virtuos decided to to make Two handed weapons attack at 1/3 of the speed of the original Oblivion but didn't adjust the damage for some reason so they're terrible now. This mod changes that

All two handed weapons have been given more damage to keep up with the other weapons in the game, it's not currently possible to change the attack speed back to the original rates sadly so this will have to do.

multiple versions of the mod with different damage multipliers. One for deluxe edition, and one for regular edition. Then there's a patch for Balanced unleveled Rewards.

If you use More Damage x2 then the 4x damage will be appropriate for you.

1. 6x damage is the recommended version, it seems two handed weapons are meant to be played very methodically and slowly now with reliance on your large range rather than damage, so this is likely the best for balance over all.

Also, check out this mod if you want another option that does similar things. Two-handed Weapons Reach and Damage Increased

Or this mod for an all in one rebalance for weapons. Best option in my opinion.  Mother of All Weapon Balance Patches

--NO MOD MANAGER--

1. Extract either the no deluxe esp or the regular esp to the Data folder (OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data)

2. If you use Balanced Unleveled Rewards extract the BUR patch there too

3. Open plugins.txt in the same folder and add in the lines for each of the files you added, with the BUR patch going last if you use BUR

4. 1 Look further down if you want an example of what your plugins.txt may want to look like.

--WITH MOD MANAGER--

This mod is set up differently than others may be.

1. Install as per your mod manager's instructions

2. Delete or disable the files you don't need afterwards. Remove the BUR Patch if you don't use BUR.

2. 5. Delete or disable either the NoDeluxe esp or the Regular esp, depending on whether you have the deluxe edition or not. If you use the regular version and you have no deluxe edition you will likely crash because the game can't find it.

I can't provide support for mod managers as I don't use them for Oblivion Remastered yet and I've never touched Vortex and likely never will. There's a comment that tells you how to do this part from Seatron:

"For vortex users: right click, hit "Open in File Manager," and delete the ones you don't need (BUR if applicable, and either the no deluxe or regular base mod)."

Also, here's a video too if you are still having trouble. Provided by Noah Thacker Gaming
