Improved and alternative merchants v7

What's new in this version 7?
-You can enjoy an even more diversified custom made content notably with summon weapon and creatures potions and scrolls
-When you reach the master level in mercantile the merchants have 1 million additional septims to barter with.
-You can buy all the enchanted arrows and bows adapted to your level in The archer's paradox in Bravil, just ask Daenlin to show you his equipment after you entered his shop
-Aymar Douar, Delmar and Edgar Vautrine all have their custom mark and recall spells for sale which means you can put 3 marks in 3 different places and teleport to them with their associated recall spells
-If you have at least 10 wolf pelts and 2160 septims you can ask any blacksmith to turn all your pelts to cuirasses, the transaction only takes place if you have enough gold. To add the topic ask a smith to craft you one wolf cuirass
-You will find barrels with objects you can convert to valuables if you have my Repeatable Oblivion quests mod, some of these objects are only available in a limited quantity in the vanilla game
-You can enjoy my new content in all the shops, guilds or by paying a visit to Shady Sam
-Bugak gro-Bol of Southern books in Leyawiin stores the goods you sell him in a respawning chest.
-You can empty your originally empty soul gems filled under their maximal capacity with spells, put the ones filled to their maximum in another container before using the spell and you'll be fine
-If you have the Shivering Isles extension Tove the Unrestful has had another thought about the way time passes and will pay you 5 septims for each tong and calliper. You only need one single click on a topic to sell all the associated objects.



Don't you find it strange and frustrating some trading places might/will remain empty once you completed some quests?
Don't you have the feeling BethSoft added some merchants at the last minute without taking the time to set them correctly, like Candice Corgine who doesn't have any septim to barter with, has nothing to sell  and equips the objects you sell her?
If your answers are yes this mod is for you, I brought improvements to 14 vanilla traders (to make it short I gave them 65535 septims to barter with, removed the leveling so you can keep the same prices as you level up and gave them a chest to store the goods you sell them) and added 4 new traders


I added a lot of new objects  and features:

  • Earn 56 septims per bone or derived ingredient in one single click if you are master in mercantile and alchemy
  • Turn the silver nuggets and animal pelts into the highest quality armors and weapons and more profitable sources of income
⦁    10 custom ingredients allowing you to resist magic, absorb spells and fortify your athletics and acrobatics among other things.
⦁    new scrolls to restore your magic, prevent the enemy from regenrating his/hers, reflect the damages, resist the paralysis, resist magic, trap souls, fortify your acrobatics and athletics
⦁    new rings and amulets/necklaces to carry more stuff, fortifiy you agility, luck, speed willpower or your acrobatics and athletics skills
⦁    damage-reflecting amulets with all the meshes of the vanilla game. If you're getting tired of the silver necklace of swords/amulet of axes now you can get a 33% reflect damage with a replica of the necromancer's amulet, of the draconian madstone or of the spelldrinker amulet for example.
⦁    Replicas of unique clothes and very rare vanilla clothes for sale plus fur, leather and deer pelt gloves notably. Now you don't need to wear handcuffs to use an enchanted equipment on the hands' slot without losing your spells efficiency.
⦁    replicas of all the armor and weapons artifacts of the vanilla game with the same quality than the durable daedric weapons or the glass and daedric armors
⦁    berserker (bare-chested) replicas of the arena raiments, Dark Brotherhood armor, Mythic Dawn armor and of the Blackwood company, plus dwemer, imperial dragon and steel armors (with merged greaves and a part of the cuirass) so you can enjoy the sight of your upperbody replacer without decreasing your protection since the berserker armors give the same armor rate than combined daedric greaves and cuirass.
⦁    Replicas of the steel , Blackwood, dwarven, Imperial Dragon, Blades, Amelion and the mostly unused pit leather armor pieces with the same stats than their daedric or glass counterparts. The first 4 materials offer new cuirasses with a version that hides and another one that shows the amulets. This means you can easily combine them with replacer meshes and hide the amulet with a low-cut cuirass or show them with an erotic version.
⦁    Replicas of the King of Worms', skull of corruption, Sanguine rose and goblin shaman staffs as melee weapons with the same stats than the daedric warhammer excepting a faster movement and a lesser range. The way the player handles them is a bit strange but you might like it anyway.
  • You can buy new spells including on touch open spells and generally create custom ones with the same effect. You can now buy spells to damage an attribute, drain an attribute, create a weakness to the normal weapons, absorb the spells, reflect the damages, fortify your acrobatics and athletics, resist the element and restore your magic or prevent your foes from recharging theirs
  • You can buy replicas of unique quest-items to decorate your house and some objects that re nearly absent from the vanilla game
    • You can ask any blacksmith to turn your gold nuggets into jewels and sell them to make a nice benefit especially if you are a master in mercantile

  • You can buy pants that don't appear as skirts when worn by a female character
  • You only need to talk once to Nerussa to sell all your shadowbanish wine as long as you completed the related quest
  • I added a lot of Shivering Isles-related stuff for sale including a lot
  • I added playable winged twilights outfits that don't cover the upperbody, one with the haircut and one without
  • The NPC's with a merchant class automatically have 65535 additional septims to barter with if you are master in mercantile
