Some court wizard and mage in Skyrim claims that magic is the true power. But sadly magic in Skyrim by default are much much weaker that a swing of battle axe or a shot from bow. This mod will make magic much stronger and more usefull especially in Master difficulty.

Overview of what this mod do:
- Make mastery perk of each school scale associated spell damage and duration. For example Adept Destruction spell such as Fireball and Chain Lightning will scale only of you take Adept Destruction perk.
- Staves damage and duration now also scale with associated perk, but much stronger than spell casted with hand. This will give you more reason to rely more on staves (which in vanila gameplay I rarely use personally).
- Fix some bug in some spell.
- Make Master level spell more usefull by cutting its casting time.
- Magic Armor spell are stronger.
- Make Bound weapon more stronger by scale their damage with associated perk and swing faster (it should be because bound weapon don't have weight).
- Dual Casting are more efficient (consume 2.5x magicka to reproduce 2.5x damage)
