📋 About This Mod

Elemental Destruction Magic Redux by phenderix is a wonderful implementation of the Elemental Destruction Magic mod (originally by reaperix) which adds new elemental Destruction spells allowing you to use Wind, Water, and Earth-themed magic to cast tornadoes, tidal waves, earthquakes, and a number of other fun new spells at your foes.  Although phenderix's version of the mod maximized compatibility in many ways, such as removing the original mod's changes to leveled lists, races, perks, etc., the new spells DO NOT work with the VAST MAJORITY of Ordinator's Destruction perks, and are only affected by the perks that affect damage scaling by adding in keywords to flag the Earth spells as Fire damage, Wind spells as Shock damage, and Water spells as Frost damage.  This means that MOST of the other Destruction perks in Ordinator (such as Static Field, Scorched Earth, Glacial Prison, Stormblast, etc.) do not work with these spells, leaving them to ultimately be MUCH weaker and less useful than the vanilla Fire, Frost, and Shock spells when using Ordinator, and effectively removing the ability to build a character around the new Wind, Water, or Earth spells.

This patch aims to fix that by properly integrating the new spells with Ordinator's Destruction perk trees: Now, instead of ONLY being affected by the perks that affect damage scaling, Earth spells will be affected by ALL Fire Perks, Wind spells will be affected by ALL Shock perks, and Water spells will be affected by ALL Frost perks, allowing you to focus entirely on these spells as a viable alternative to the vanilla elements, and creating the opportunity to synergize the new elements with their corresponding vanilla counterparts (ie. for perks that respond to hitting an enemy with a fire spell, for example, you could use any combination of Earth OR Fire spells to proc the effects)

The only perk I haven't implemented is Absolute Power (which I may add to this patch in a future update), from my testing all other Ordinator perks should now work with the corresponding Elemental Destruction Magic Redux spells.  Feel free to let me know if there are any that don't, and I can look into it.  I also haven't done anything with the summoned Earth, Wind, or Water Atronachs from EDM, as the main focus here was getting the Destruction spells to work with Ordinator's Destruction perks.  I have also updated the Wind Atronachs to be affected by the Atromancy perk in the Conjuration tree.  If there are any other perks from Ordinator's Conjuration tree that these Atronachs don't work with, let me know and I can add them in a future update as well.
