📋 About This Mod
This nerfs the skeleton key. It will no longer function as an unbreakable lock pick, and in addition it will only fortify your security skill by 5 points. This will work with both existing and new games.
Name: Skeleton Key Nerf Author: Mojodajojo Thanks: To whatever entities want them. 1: Requirements 2: Description 3: Installation / Uninstallation 4: Version History / Bug Fixes 5: Incompatibilities 6: Legal ------------------------------------------------------ 1: Requirements Oblivion ------------------------------------------------------ 2: Description This should work fine with both existing and new games. This mod removes the vanilla skeleton key from your inventory as soon as you enter the game and replaces it with my new much less powerful skeleton key. The new skeleton key will no longer function as a lock pick. You will have to buy lock picks just like you did before the key. In addition it will only fortify your security 5 points as opposed to 40 points in the vanilla game. ------------------------------------------------------ 3: Installation / Uninstallation Installation: Put the .esp in this mod into the data folder in your Oblivion directory or use OBMM. Uninstallation: If you decide you want the vanilla skeleton key back, you will have to take the Skeleton Key Nerf.esp out of your data folder and download the ChangeOfHeart file and use that .esp It will put a copy of the vanilla key back in your inventory. ------------------------------------------------------ 4: Version History / Bug Fixes I don\'t know. ------------------------------------------------------ 5: Incompatibilities Should be compatible with anything unless it has to do with the skeleton key. ------------------------------------------------------ 6: Legal I don\'t care what you do with this. Do whatever you want with this so long as Bethesda doesn\'t care.
