📋 About This Mod
Firstly, first mod:)
What does this do?
______________________________
It’s a patch to make the 2 overhauls play nice with each other. While they are both in effect overhauls that change a lot of the same aspects, I have designed this patch to have CACO serve more as a supplement to Requiem. It should hopefully not make Requiem easier (early game in fact might be a little tougher), but it should level Alchemy out to make it more comparable to the other perk trees while at the same time, adding a greater variety of options to help the player overcome obstacles. (e.g. Pure archers should not have to feel obligated anymore to take Smithing in order to handle Draugr dungeons. Changes to healing poultices provide for a more flexible experience curbing the need for all players from having to invest in either Alchemy or Restoration). It should also bring over CACO's highly in depth cooking and food system into the Requiem universe.
