Permissions and credits
Changelogs
The Mod is divided across multiple esps making it fairly modular. You can use them as a whole or individually, your choice. As of 1.0 both the Destruction and Illusion scaling perks are added automatically using the quest system. You should receive a quest complete notification for both when you first install them. There should be no issues if you're upgrading from an old version and thus already has the perks by using my console instructions, you can ignore the quest notification.

Lastly I have a development thread going which can be here or by clicking the discussion tab and going down to Ocyris Skyrim Tweaks - Development. That thread will contain various updates and speculation as to where I'm taking this mod. Question, comments and suggestion are welcome.
