Sorry for the lack of presence here. Right now I'm away from home (I work in a Oil company) and I'll be home as soon as I can. Dont worry guys I haven't given up this project or forgotten about you.
Are you going to do something with the black books powers (Dragonborn Force, Fire and Frost) or meditate from High Hrothar? Or what about marked of death with decrease magic resistance? Dragonrend with additional damage to dragons?
The meditate powers are something that really need a boost ! I'm definitely improve them . I have never thought about black books before but why not ! ? Never thought of this for Marked for Death, great suggestion !
Cool idea for DragonRend but there is no spell-type for specific damage to dragons. I'm very interested on dragon damage because I have a project of a mod that would benefit that. Currently I'm thinking of getting that enchantment from dragonsbane to work out as a spell but I did not have the time yet (my job is outside my hometown so free time is scarce ). I believe it's possible but I'm still learning to mod.
No, thank you for this rebalancer) What will you do with Dragon Aspect? I think increased shout damage/duration is good effect for this shout. Sorry for my literacy, English is not my native language p.s. "Dragonslayer's enchanting pack" - is a good idea, for the true Dovahkiins)

Actually all you need is to add a damage magic effect to the shout (any base damage effect or your own custom one), set it to the magnitude you want, then add a condition on it that sates the target must be of dragon race. Hope that helps Just ask if you need help! I know what I've said is sort of ambiguous, but I don't feel like typing up a whole tutorial on your comments. PM me if you need more instructions
I saw somewhere that Dragon Aspect already increases the duration and effect of many shouts ! It's not in the description but apparently it's true. One thing I noticed is that AncientDragonborn disappears too fast. I think he should stay longer in-field. Don't worry, your english is fine (and it also is not my first language). =)
Wow ! Haha, I had o idea of this. I intended to add this effect to make some gameplay tools and battles more viable. But I have to set up all the ideas first. I'll explain it later because it is for another mod. I'm definitely contacting you later. Thanks for the comment DDude !!!!
Oh yes, thanks. I find this information in UESP wiki. What about low bonus for spell magnitude? 15-20%, no more. Because this shout more useful for warriors, not mages, and increase fire and frost resistance (from 25 to 35 for example). Maybe Cyclon need damage boost, and fly enemeis more higher) Battle fury need nerf In civivl war this shout is extremly game-breaking) For slow time is good choice to decrease slow effect, but increase duration.
This just my opinion, you may be disagree with me.
Sorry for the late response. I cannot access some pages at my work. I always thought of D. Aspect as more generic shout, the only warrior-oriented effect is 25% less stamina for power attacks. I believe a higher damage bonus/lower magicka cost for destruction spells is worth the try to keep it fair with mages. But we have to be careful about not boosting DA too much. It's already a pretty good shout.
Yes ,some people always noticed how battle fury is kind of broken. I should've added Dragonborn shouts since thebegining but I had thought doing vanilla+dawnguard and then Dragonborn were a better idea... I should have more free time without college in the next weeks, I believe some changes are going to be added.
What do you think of fire/frost breath damage ?Is it too much or not enough ?
I think not, you made damage from breath shous is very balanced (dps is good), but meditate powers and powers from black books need boost. For example: Yol - +25% damage and additional 20-30% fire resist good choice, but its optional Fus - take less stagger 50%, deal more stagger 50% (also maybe not changed) Fime - 200-250% bonus for regeneration health (optional small boost for magicka and stamina regen)
Dragonborn force - increased damage to 100 with 3-d word, disarm and when health low disintegree Dragonborn fire - fire wyrm from corpses + doubles ignite effect Dragonborn frost - frezee for 10-15-20 sec each word, and decrase frost resist from target (50% good choice)
Its only ideas, maybe you have something better. For some shouts need more balance with cooldown/magnitude (for example high lvl for Dismay and Disarm and lower they cd). Knockback enemies with 3-rd word of whirlwind sprint, 10/20/50 damage for every word of Unrelenting Force. Call of dragon and Summon Durnehviir reduce cd for 5 seconds, but they used once per day. And more more more..)
As a matter of fact this was the one mod I mentioned in my description. If you read the comments in the forum you'll notice there has been no updates since May 2013 and the modder hasn't appeared to answer questions or given solutions. Many users reported bugs, specially towards Draugrs. There a couple of mods that also balance and improve shouts but: I did not like the first one(so hyper-powered) and the other adds about 20 shouts if I recall correctly.
I decided to make one with players' feedbacks instead of ideas from just one person. And of course being the most lore friendly as possible
The only issue I have with the mod is that I think Aura Whisper doesn't last long enough, I have not had problems with Draugr or with anything else. If you're talking about the fact that Draugr's Unrelenting Force is a lot stronger too, that's to be expected since they use the same power as the player. You'd have to mod the Draugr to make them use another version of Unrelenting Force if you want to buff the player's but not the Draugr's.
Multiple members reported draurgs not using shout anymore, it has nothing to do with the damage. There a few more but I really don't remember all of them. If you seacrh , you'll find it in the forum.
Two days ago I began my full reinstallation of all my Skyrim mods. I'm switching a few here and there and testing between alternatives. I will certainly be trying this mod out while I do that! I got hundreds of mods to sieve through and try out, so it may take me a little bit, but I'll get around to it as soon as I can! I always found shouting a little underpowered in the game, so I'm quite excited about this!!Awesome work with the detailed description, I love seeing that on a mod!

Feb 05/2014: added missing shouts in the description: Animal Allegiance, Call of Valor, Aura Whisper and Become Ethereal.
Dont worry guys I haven't given up this project or forgotten about you.
Either way mod looks good so far, keep up the good work.
Or what about marked of death with decrease magic resistance? Dragonrend with additional damage to dragons?
I have never thought about black books before but why not ! ?
