About this mod
A variety of choices of how many skill points Ryder will get per level up.
- Permissions and credits
A few changes to how many skill points Ryder will get per level up that I made since I don't really want to run back to the respec station after every mission and don't really feel like diving into a New Game+ since it's still kind of buggy. I calculated the total skill point number with Level 65 as the max level.
I haven't tested the mod extensively yet, only enough to see if it works properly and which values I have to edit. If there is anything wrong, please let me know. To be on the safe side, manually save before your next level up so that you have an unmodded save to fall back on should the mod mess anything up. Only install one version at a time.
Skill points apply retroactively based on which level you are. So don't worry if you suddenly have a lot of them, it's just the game correcting itself.
It takes 252 skill points to max a skill tree (Combat, Biotic or Tech).
It takes 756 skill points to max everything.
