📋 About This Mod
Restoration potions are no longer instant, ingredients nerf, etc. HIGHLY CUSTOMIZABLE.
PROBLEM: opening the inventory right before dying and using potions to get back to full health is unimersive. You should never stop the game in a middle of a combat to browse inventory. Use of potions should be strategic - if you expect to receive damage - use potions in advance.
There are couple alchemy mods that change potions/food/ingredients duration to extend the effect, but they are still too quick (5sec) for my taste. So i made my own mod with values that i like.
FILES AND WHAT THEY DO
ALCHEMY APPARATUS:
Mortar and pestle, Calcinator, Alembic, Retort are less impactfull. Early game crafted potions are stronger and late game - weaker. Better quality apparatus are lighter. (Opposite of vanilla logic)
Apparatus effect on crafted potions:
WAS: Apprentice 10- Master 100
NOW: Apprentice 30 - Master 50
File 2)
FORTIFY and RESIST potions:
2 MINUTES (FORTIFY and RESIST potions usually last from 20 (example: weak fire shield) to 60 seconds (Example: Fortify health) this file changes durations to 2 minutes)
Optional files)
RESTORATION POTIONS (Non craftable):
OPTION 1: Restoration potions ONLY (9 potions: Weak/Strong/average for fatigue/health/magicka) are no longer instant, they last 20sec, but are 20 times weaker. (Restore the same amount)
OPTION 2: Restoration potions ONLY (9 potions: Weak/Strong/average for fatigue/health/magicka) are no longer instant, they last 20sec, but are 10 times weaker (Restore twice more but over 20sec).
Installation:
Drop downloaded esp file into OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data
Add downloaded esp name (with .esp in the end) to Plugins.txt in the same folder. (Example: "Fortify and resist potions last longer 2min version.esp", Just copy the file name to be sure and add .esp manually to avoid any misspellings)
Compatibility:
Load esp after any mod that changes Potions, food or ingredients depending on what files you are using. (put esp below those mods in Plugins.txt file)
