About this mod

Increases the health and strength of vanilla Skyrim, Dragonborn DLC and Dawngaurd DLC dragons.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
Increases damage done by dragon breaths by 50% to 150% and boosts the health of dragons by 3x-10x.  The goal is so that those with modded games or stronger characters have dragons that are still apex predators instead of toys for random giants to play with.  This is a first-pass, so game balance may be slightly out of whack at player levels below 30 or above 50.

I suggest a mid-20s character, with 30-50% fire resist, and a bow capable of 50-60 damage along with 75-100 arrows for the first dragon battle outside of Whiterun.  I'm not sure how suitable this would be for a level 10-15 character with little to no resists against the breath attacks.  Plan on packing health and resist potions, and possibly marksman or other damage output increasing potions.  By my mid-30s, I usually have a bow that does 80-100 damage, ebony arrows (20 dam), plus potions that increase bow damage by 80%, plus resists of around 70-80%.  

Required DLC:

You must have both Dawnguard and Dragonborn DLC installed and active in your load order.

Dragon Health/Level Changes:

Note: The game use a base health offset, then adds a bit of health as the level changes.  So a dragon that has 3000 at level 10 might have 3300-3600 at level 40 (assuming that it is still in the spawn lists at that level).
