About this mod
This is simply my attempt to create a better high end Mage build without it becoming God-like.

Mage Tweaks Per Level (MTPL)
=========================================================================================
After seeing a few of complaints regarding how weak Mages were at the high end of the game, I started looking into how to make one more powerful without overdoing it. Not an easy task without the CK but I thought I would give it a try and see. After doing some testing I discovered the variable that increases the power of spells, <school>PowerMod, (which potions modify, btw) also affect items in your inventory. IMHO, Enchantments should not get any stronger from the time they were created, so that wouldn't do. I decided instead to change other variables.<br><br>=========================================================================================<br>******************************************************* NOTICE **********************************************************<br>=========================================================================================<br><br>************************** THIS IS A MANUAL TWEAKING OF THE GAME VARIABLES *******************************<br><br>If you DO NOT feel comfortable making changes to game variables with the in-game console, this mod is not for you.<br><br>However, they ARE PERFECTLY REVERSIBLE.<br><br>Disclaimer: I take absolutely no responsibility for "Game Breaking" of ANY KIND that might occur by using my tweaks.
