This mod smooths out Oblivion’s leveling system by rebalancing attribute progression. It encourages natural gameplay without obsessive micromanagement.
No more grinding 10 skill increases just to avoid wasting a level. While focused leveling is still rewarded, it’s no longer mandatory.
Perfect for roleplaying or modded playthroughs where pacing and immersion matter.
