📋 About This Mod
Causes Restoration to level as fast as Mysticism and Illusion. For some reason Restoration levels at a 5th the rate of other magic schools. I think having a high restoration skill can make way for a fun character to play, and this mod allows you to reach that high skill before it\'s too late. Created/Posted on request. Was set 0. 6, and is now set at 3. 0
Faster Restoration is a simple gameplay tweak for Oblivion that makes the Restoration skill level up as quickly as Mysticism and Illusion. It's for players who find Restoration grinding too slow and want a more balanced progression without overhauling the magic system.
