Smithing Perks Overhaul SE

This mod started out with the intention to simply change the smithing perks to apply more consistently to all armor and weapon types. However, with the addition of the new perk trees and perk arrangements, I feel that this mod succeeds in providing a much more balanced smithing experience with better perk choices and more logical perk progression.

• []Provides a more balanced smithing experience

  []Attempts to remain true to the style and intent of the vanilla game

  []Two different perk tree options

REQUIREMENTS

• []Weapons Armor Clothing & Clutter Fixes - Required for the Modified Vanilla Perk Tree.

• Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch - Required for the New Perk Tree (but strongly recommended with both versions).

  INSTALLATION

  Select and download the file version you want.

  Load Smithing Perks Overhaul AFTER Weapons Armor Clothing & Clutter Fixes.

  It is recommended that you install this mod on a new game, especially if you choose the New Perk Tree option.

  If you choose to install the New Perk Tree version on an existing game, then upon first loading your game, any current smithing perks (except Basic Smithing and Arcane Blacksmith) will be removed and you will be given the equivalent number of perk points to redistribute as you see fit. You must have SKSE installed for this to work. If you don't have SKSE installed, then you will have to use the console to add/remove perks from an existing game.
