About this mod
Intelligently slows down skill XP gain by up to 50%, increases training costs, and fixes governing attributes for a smoother, new-content friendly leveling experience.

Relaxed Level-Up and Progression Rebalance
With the insane economy of Vvardenfell, it can be pretty easy to level up too quickly. Even more so if you add on top Tamriel Rebuilt, Province Cyrodiil, Skyrim Home of the Nords, and other new lands, quest, and item mods. By the time your character is ready to start tackling the new content in earnest, they can be 20+ levels higher than most enemies - rendering all of those amazing modded addons a little too boring. Specifically, this mod does 3 things:
- Decreases skill level-up speed by up to 50% on a skill-by-skill basis.
- Increases training costs by 50% across the board.
- Swaps the governing attributes of a few skills for a vanilla-friendly experience that causes less of a headache.
The optional file slightly reduces skill level-ups necessary to reach higher Attribute multipliers. See all the changes below:
Changes
Governing Attributes
Spoiler:
MYSTICISM: Willpower > Intelligence
This allows for easier leveling of Intelligence without spamming Conjuration spells.
SECURITY: Intelligence > Agility
This fits better for thief builds and balances out with the Mysticism attribute change.
SPEAR: Endurance > Strength
This no longer forces anyone to prioritize leveling Spear (a random offensive skill) just to increase their Health.
ARMORER: Strength > Endurance
This adds a non-combat skill to Endurance to supplement the leveling (Strength already has a non-combat skill - Acrobatics), and Strength already had too many skills in general.
Below is the complete list of skills and attributes, incorporating the changes from this mod:
Strength: Acrobatics, Axe, Blunt, Long Blade, SPEAR
Intelligence: Alchemy, Conjuration, Enchant, MYSTICISM
Willpower: Alteration, Destruction, Restoration
Agility: Block, Light Armor, Marksman, SECURITY, Sneak
Speed: Athletics, Hand-to-Hand, Short Blade, Unarmored
Endurance: ARMORER, Heavy Armor, Medium Armor
Personality: Illusion, Mercantile, Speechcraft

Relaxed Level Attribute Multipliers
(optional file)Vanilla Attribute multipliers can become tedious. This optional file simply relaxes the requirements by 2 skill levels. Now you can get a +4 Attribute multiplier at 6 skill level-ups, which is still a fair amount of work but ultimately makes leveling much less painful. See below:
VANILLA MOD
Levels: Multiplier: Levels: Multiplier:
1-4 x2 1-2 x2
5-7 x3 3-5 x3
8-9 x4 6-7 x4
10 x5 8-10 x5
