About this mod

A just for fun mod that tweaks some of the weapons in Skyrim. Redone to be a bit more serious

Requirements
Permissions and credits
UPDATE 3.0
As of update 3.0, the whole mod has been reworked. Instead of bringing your weapons to the forge and doing them one at a time, you now gain a lesser power called "Grace of Talos", which when used will update all out of date weapons in your inventory. Due to the rework, the higher tier Chillrend variants have been temporarily left out, and the following items are not currently supported:
Lunar Iron Mace
Lunar Iron Sword
Lunar Iron War Axe
Lunar Steel Mace
Lunar Steel Sword
Lunar Steel War Axe
Mage's Circlet

A few things about the weapons in Skyrim were bothering me, and being the mod inclined type of person, I set out to fix them. There are only a few tweaks as of now, but I will be adding more later.

-Chillrend-
Chillrend's temper material has been changed to Stalhrim, because, well, it's obviously made of Stalhrim. I also made it's effect cost no charge, so it's like the Ebony Blade now. It is advised to install the mod before you get Chillrend.

-Aetherial Staff-
I felt that the staff was rather poor compared to the other two Aetherium artifacts, so just like with Chillrend, I made the staff have infinite charge. You might call it a bit overpowered, but hey, it's made of Aetherium.

-Weapon Upgrades-
I was rather disappointed to see that the only equivalent for the old AULIAS mod from Oblivion was a Script Dragon plugin that has long since lost support and stopped working, so I plan to make a simple workaround for getting the better versions of the weapons. Basically, if you meet the level requirements, and have the leveled item in your inventory, you can progressively upgrade it through the stages. I have only done Chillrend thus far, but I plan to do all of the leveled items as the mod progresses. If anyone wants to list the leveled items in the game, that would be helpful.

Version 2.0 supports the following leveled items for upgrade:

Weapons:
Chillrend
Dragonbane
Gauldur Blackblade
Gauldur Blackbow
Lunar Iron Mace
Lunar Iron Sword
Lunar Iron War Axe
Lunar Steel Mace
Lunar Steel Sword
Lunar Steel War Axe
Nightingale Blade
Nightingale Bow
The Pale Blade
Tsun's Battle Axe
Miraak's Sword
Miraak's Staff

Armor/Clothes:
Shield of Solitude
Nightingale Armor
Nightingale Boots
Nightingale Gloves
Nightingale Hood
Miraak Mask
Miraak Robes
Mage's Circlet

By request, I've added a standalone version of the Weapon Upgrades portion to the download page.

As will likely always be the case, this is a working project, and is subject to updates and changes, and any suggestions for improvements or tweaks on weapons are welcome.
