📋 About This Mod
This mod reduces the Magicka cost of spells, letting you cast far more before running dry. It's perfect for mages who’d rather keep flinging fireballs than rationing them. Definitely on the cheaty side, but hey, magic is supposed to feel powerful, right? You can safely uninstall it at any time.
It comes in six versions, from slightly cheaper spells to nearly free-casting with sixteen times reduced Magicka cost.
