✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 2,039 endorsements and nearly 60k downloads.
- Simple, effective fix for a common annoyance—no more running out of charges mid-dungeon.
- Configurable so you can tweak the balance to your liking.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020—may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or mods that alter enchantment systems.
- Requires manual file editing to change the default halved cost, which might confuse less technical users.
- Only affects charge costs—doesn't improve enchantment strength or add new effects.
For Skyrim players who hate the limited charges on enchanted weapons and want a straightforward fix without overhauling the magic system. Skip if you're using a comprehensive enchantment overhaul that already addresses charge economy.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, install this as a regular mod—no special load order needed.
- To adjust the cost multiplier, open the mod's INI file with a text editor and change the value to your preference.
- Make sure to check if your other enchantment mods are compatible, as they might override this change.
