Guardian Stones Overhaul
by Candrian
------------------------------------------
CHANGELOG:
v.1.3
PLEASE NOTE: If you have the Aetherial Crown from Dawnguard, storing the modded guardian stones in it will not work. But storing any of the other stones in it and having a guardian stone as active will work just fine. Fixing this would take some serious scripting, which I don't have the skills for.
-Balancing changes (brought 2h damage on the The Warrior back down, changed from +30 carry weight to +20 health. Amped up The Thief a little.)
-Made the mod from scratch with update file dependancy to avoid any nasty surprises in the future.
v.1.2
-Updated the loading screens with the new effects.
-Changed "The Mage" Stone to 30 magicka and 20% magic resist. The original bonus of +50 magicka and magicka regen was a better bonus than The Apprentice stone, without the negative effects.
-Increased the two-handed damage on "The Warrior" from 10% to 20%.
v.1.1
-Fixed some old conditions that caused Hadvar and Ralof to not respond to your choice of
standing stone when you follow either of them from Helgen to Riverwood early in the game.
------------------------------------------
DISCRIPTION:
This mod changes the Guardian Stones standing stones to be, in my opinion, actually useful.
Myself, I never used them because I felt that my characters would level up way too quickly,
so I made this simple mod so that they would no longer be redundant. I balanced them keeping
in mind that they shouldn't be too powerful early in the game and still be able to contend
with the other standing stones later on. The bonuses they give are in the spirit of their
versions from the previous Elder Scrollls games, meaning that they give a small useful
bonus with no drawbacks.
The bonuses are as follows:
"The Mage" - +30 magicka, +20% magic resist
"The Warrior" - +10% damage with melee weapons, +20 health
"The Thief" - 10% better sneak, +5% damage with ranged weapons, +30 stamina
------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION:
- Find your Skyrim Data folder, usually C:Program FilesSteamsteamappscommonskyrimData
- Open up the archive file you downloaded
- Add the .esp file into your Data folder
- Open up Skyrim and make sure the file "GuardianStonesOverhaul-Candrian" is checked
And you're good to go!
------------------------------------------
OTHER:
Keep in mind that this mod will conflict with any other mod that edits these standing stones
and/or their abilities.
