📋 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)
