CPR - Cray's Personal Rebalances

CPR - Cray's Personal Rebalances

A Reward Balance Overhaul CPR is exactly what the name suggests: A general adjustment of reward balance to suit the author’s standards. Originally starting as a simple editing of Mehrunes’ Razor and the three versions of its enchantment, its scope soon spiraled out to encompass most unique items, leveled equipment and artifacts, with an additional stop by the Orrery DLC’s major powers. What you see here is the product of the ensuing design document and TES4Edit/Construction Set binge. Cray’s Personal Rebalances is intentionally formatted as a grab bag of plugins to maximize modularity. Users are encouraged to pick and choose individual files according to their preferences, or simply use the merged plugins if they like everything listed.

The full changelog and readme listing all edits is available both in the download and in online format.

Feature Summary Core Oblivion Plugins

Leveled Items: CPR strives to ensure that all tiers of leveled items are viable equipment regardless of what level one receives them at. Enchantment uses are generally increased, and notably underpowered enchantments are buffed.

Daedric Artifacts: The rewards for Daedric quests have their existing enchantment effects buffed, in line with their legendary status. Exceptions are the Cuirass of the Saviour's Hide, which now additionally grants a lesser power while worn, and Volendrung, which has had its enchantment replaced entirely in accordance with the Skyrim version — You will still knock enemies down with Absorb Fatigue, but you will need to land several strikes.

Unique Items: Although given a lesser standard of power than Daedric ones, other unique artifacts were similarly given a sweep of their own. Particular attention was paid to the merchant items unlocked at Journeyman level in Mercantile: Several of them are hardly viable, one is a gag item at best, and the concept of strong items with drawbacks was not executed remarkably well. Disadvantages were reduced and at times removed, several items have been reworked, all with viability and being worth the coin in mind.

Imperial Dragon Armor: Not much of a questline end reward, now is it? Stats have been increased to match Glass/Daedric, with custom enchantments.

Brusef Amelion's Gear: The light ceremonial armor isn't valuable enough to possibly cover Biene's debt.. Until you install the corresponding CPR plugin, that is, giving it the stats of Elven armor and giving the sword a new enchantment.

Mages' Guild Finale Robes: The unique robes featured at the finale of the MG questline are unenchanted, and Mannimarco doesn't carry his own hood. CPR MG Finale Robes.esp addresses this by givi
