This mod changes most enchantments and alchemy fortify effects, making then more useful, balanced and free of exploits like the crafting loop, along with some fixes.
- All enchantments and alchemy effects have some use in combat, so that Daedric Gauntlet of lockpicking will no longer be a waste.
- Reworked the messy fortify heavy/ light armor vanilla effects with new effects that work properly.
- Added secondary effects to fortify lockpicking, pickpocketing, speechcraft, sneak and resist disease, to make then more appealing in combat.
- Soul trap, banish and turn undead now also deal damage.
- Existing Chaos enchantments are no longer overpowered (still one of the most powerful) and custom made ones now have the proper magnitude.
- Crafting loop exploit is gone! Fortify smithing, alchemy and enchanting effects now have other effects.
- Common enchantments no longer stack if the same effect is placed in two different pieces of armor, you only get the effect from the one with higher magnitude.
- Mage robes now increase spell effectiveness instead of decrease cost and removed their magic regeneration boost.
- Balanced enchantments cost.
- Enchantments that reduce spell cost no longer apply to weapons enchantments, the alchemy fortify enchanting effect does reduce enchantment cost though.
