📋 About This Mod

Say the name five times really fast.

Description

This is a light but comprehensive enhancement of the vanilla rewards for most of the miscellaneous quests across Skyrim (DLC areas excluded). If you have ever found yourself in the same position as I, carrying ten heavy bear pelts for 40 hours thinking at some point you'll return them to Temba in Ivarstead only to be given a piece of junk enchanted axe, then you have likely experienced the same urge to Fus-Ro-Dah her off the nearby waterfalls. This mod aims to fix that by making most miscellaneous quests more enticing to finish.

To that end, most miscellaneous quests will now have increased gold rewards alongside other little goodies to add some flavor to the NPC giving you the rewards. So innkeepers might give you some food, mercenaries might give you a weapon or some potions, alchemists might reward some ingredients, blacksmiths will grant ingots, so on and so forth. On top of that, most miscellaneous quests that grant the player a skill increase will now reward two skill increases. This applies to those that grant skill boosts in two different trees as well. Some of the quests that send you across the whole map only to reward a small potion have also received an added gold reward where it made sense. You won't be getting any gold from beggars since they don't have any, but you might get some from a miner who needs to deliver a letter.

As for the exact amount of gold rewards which have been changed/updated, allow me to shine some light on it. Most leveled list rewards in Skyrim max out at around level 40-42. The miscellaneous quests use two of these leveled list, a medium and a large one, the medium one scaling only lightly up to 750 gold at level 40+ and the large one scaling up to 1500 gold at level 42. I have revamped most of the quests using the former to instead reward a consistent 550 - 650 gold reward at all levels, thus making it more impactful at all levels except the last one, where chances are you don't really need that extra bit of money anymore. The quests using the large list have not been touched in that regard, but are also subject to the extra bits of added rewards to add some flavor where it made sense to.

And for a small disclaimer...look, this is not supposed to re-design the game's entire economy. You will not be getting Daedric weapons and Grand Souls Gems for killing three goats. This mod is intended to simply fix Bethesda's original oversights when it comes to quests wasting the player's time. That being said however, if you believe the rewards need further balancing or changing please let me know in the comments 🔥

Compatibility

Due to the number of scripts being changed (even minimally) by a mod such as this, it is almost impossible to keep track of every single mod out there that would require a patch made. However, as a rule of thumb: if you ha
