This is just a few simple tweaks for Manbeast. Beastform is now a lesser power so you can transform whenever you like. Always thought it was dumb Bethesda made Vampire Lord that way but not Werewolves. Combined with Simple Werewolf Favourite Howls you can now change back and forth from mortal form to werewolf at will whenever you want. This means you can kill enemies in beast form, revert to mortal form to loot bodies/open doors/etc. then turn back into a werewolf to continue through the dungeon.
This also means that the Ring of Hircine is basically made obsolete because all it will do is prevent forced transformations so it's practically pointless. I put a couple enchantments on the Ring of Hircine so now it will fortifiy health by 50, stamina by 75, and prevent forced transformations which I think makes the Ring of Hircine useful to get still. If you think those effects are too powerful they're easy to change in SSEedit I just figured it should be powerful since it's a Daedric Artfact.
Lastly I edited the animal strength ability. I like the extra 10 unarmed damage it gives but it seems strange only unarmed attacks would be stronger. I edited the ability so now your melee weapons do 10 additional damage as well as your unarmed attacks. This means werewolves are physically superior warriors regardless of fighting style.
Requires Manbeast and I recommend using Simple Werewolf Favourite Howls Menu as well.
