Changelogs
In vanilla, shouts are borderline useless. With my mod, shouts are actually lore-friendly now!

I highly recommend that you should use my mod with those adding more high level enemies to your game and play with higher difficulties, as I usually envision and balance the experience around that idea.

Give me an endorsement if you enjoy my mod. <3

*Installation:
This mod requires Unofficial Skyrim Patch Special Edition Patch! 
Just place my files into your Skyrim's directory location (data folder) and you're done. I do recommend starting a new game with my mod so that the changes for NPCs can actually take effect.

If you decide to install this mod mid playthrough, then make sure you are not under any shout cooldown and don't have any active effect from shouts! You may need to re-equip shout meditation perks and Black book powers to get them to work normally again.


*General changes:
+ Shouts will have dragon language translation in the menu.
+ Shouts now don't belong to any school of magic to avoid unintentional effects from magic mods you have in your load order.
+ You only take a fraction of damage from Unrelenting Force, Frost Breath, Fire Breath, Ice Form and Storm Call.
You may need to use the remove perk command and add perk command if you install my mod mid playthrough, as I edited a default perk on player for the resistance effects and the game may not register these changes on the fly. The perk code is 000f11a9 (internal name in Creation Kit is AllowShoutingPerk. The default condition for the perk to work is completing Dragon Rising, so if you play around without completing this quest, chances you are you are in a world of pain against high-level draugrs).
+ When you are level 51 and above, Unrelenting Force's knockdown and Ice Form's paralysis only have 20% chance to affect you.
+ You can fast travel in real-time with dragons when riding them (delete the INI file if you don't like this feature).

*Changes to Word Meditation perks:
+ Force Without Effort: You stagger 25% less and foes stagger 25% more. Unrelenting Force shout deals 50% more damage and you can not be harmed by it.

+ Eternal Spirit: While in Ethereal form, your health recovers 200% faster and your stamina + magicka recover 100% faster.

+ The Fire Within: Fire Breath shout deals 50% more damage and reduces targets' armor rating by 150/300/450 for 15/30/45 seconds.

*Changes to Black Book shout powers:
+ Dragonborn Flame: Summons a fire wyrm when your Fire Breath kills an enemy (the wyrm now has better AI and stronger stats).

+ Dragonborn Force: Your Unrelenting Force shout does more damage and using all three words may disintegrate enemies 
(Unrelenting Forces deals 50/75/100 extra points of damage and has 20% chance to cause 200000 points of damage, enough to kill anyone standing in your way).

+ Dragonborn Frost: Your Frost Breath Shout lasts 50% longer and it can encase your foes in ice. 
(enemies are paralyzed for 6/12/18 seconds).
