📋 About This Mod

SkyPE (Skyrim Perk Extravaganza)

NOTE: I test this with a perk setting of three every two levels. Two per level may work for you, but it feels a bit overpowered to me.

ALSO NOTE: Version 1. 7 is still up for those who might prefer "Classic" SkyPE.

2. 17 CHANGES June 20, 2014 -Various text edits -Bugged perk, Sense of Smell, replaced with Stalk you Prey. -Bugged perk, Sixth Sense, removed -Fixed conditions on a couple perks, abilities and effects -Fixed perks related to shout cooldown -Includes new Smithing tree

Next is up a version without the new Smithing tree and a reworking of the new tree.

2. 1 CHANGES -Smithing tree has been redone to simulate the most realistic smithing experience possible. Yes, it makes it harder. It takes longer to become a smith because one must study the craft and spend time with it. The rewards for this time are great! In this new method of crafting, you learn the nuances of each metal, for each one has its own ability to protect and to harm. The Armorsmith learns how to first craft simple pieces of armor from a metal by fashioning boots, shields and gauntlets. Once these are practiced with a bit, then he can move on to more complicated and important pieces like the cuirass and helmet. The Weaponsmith starts out learning simple weapons that do not require much finesse or talent to craft. These are the maces, warhammers, war axes, and bows. These things are as much woodworking than metal-smithing. The dagger is another beginner item, for it's blade is short and easier to make. The more experienced weaponsmith can make longer blades and hone them to deadly precision. These are also balanced for the perfect swing. Now such weapons as swords, battle-axes and greatswords are available for crafting. Each metal has four perks attributed to it: simple armor, simple weapons, advanced armor, and advanced weapon. These perks allow for different items to be crafted. The simple armor and weapons can be learned at a skill level below the Vanilla skill level, while the advanced items keep the normal skill level found in the Vanilla perk. Furthermore, every perk taken allows for a 30% greater effectiveness in improving your items. Once all four perks are taken, this grants almost double the effectiveness of Vanilla Skyrim.

BUG FIXES -Destruction dual casting has been fixed. -Bound bow keyword added. -Cleaned with TES5Edit. -The Breton Race perks have been restored.

2. 0 beta (Download the file in the Update category)

With this version, SkyPE moves into a new level of realism and immersion. Much of the mod is being rebuilt from the ground up with these two factors in mind. During this process, new perk trees grew and exciting new perks began to blossom. In this beta version, SkyPE 2. 0 is roughly 75% fini
