Compatability:

I haven't seen any other mods that change this particular value: fSkillUseMinorMult. Therefore, it should be compatible with most anything, including mods that mess with general leveling rates of Skills or the Player Character.

Mod Description:

In the original TESIV: Oblivion, Major Skills leveled up 66% faster than Minor Skills. For whatever reason, Virtuos decided that this was too great a difference, and pushed the game in a more Skyrim direction where the distinction between Major/Minor doesn't exist. From what I can tell, Minor Skills in the Remaster advance a mere 16. 67% slower than Major Skills, and contribute just as much to leveling up your character. This mod presents options to undo that change to your preferred degree, which should result in the following gameplay effects:

- Your Class choice is far more relevant, as you are less able to pivot to Minor Skills or simply become good at everything simultaneously.

- You will level up more slowly, to some degree, since your Minor Skills with level more rarely.

- Therefore, your Major Skills will be higher relative to your character level, making you feel more specialized, and likely a bit more powerful.

- Major Skills that are not within your Specialization (Combat/Magic/Stealth) will once again gain ranks quicker than Minor Skills that are within your Specialization. That is, unless you pick the 1. 33x option, in which case the Major and Specialized traits both confer the same 33% bonus. (These bonuses do stack.)

Skill Multipliers per Version

Note- this mod ONLY nerfs leveling rates. Higher numbers here result from the greater difference between Major/Minor multipliers due to
