--INTRODUCTION--
What is Reforge and what does it aim to do? Reforge effectively replaces the entire smithing perk tree and aims to rebalance the original armor and weapon progression to prevent the creation of overpowered equipment at the very start.
--REQUIREMENTS--
SKSE64
--COMPATIBILITY--
Heavy Armory by PrivateEye
Animated Armory by NickNak
--INCOMPATIBILITIES--
Currently, this may not work properly with any other mods which add new weapon types other than the ones listed above, but shouldn't cause any issues with stability. It's also worth noting that any mods which modify the smithing tree will effectively render this mod useless unless this one is loaded after.
--NEW PERKS--
Smithing Knowledge:Instead of spending several perk points to be able to craft high-level weapons and armor at any point in the game, Smithing Knowledge gives you the ability to craft said weapons and armor as your character levels up, giving you access to recipes at a slightly faster rate than they would appear in leveled lists.
Improvement:Grants a universal modifier to armor and weapon tempering, allowing equipment not tied to perks to finally get the same treatment as those that are. Conversely, the modifier cap has been reduced from x2.0 to x1.5 to balance out with another added mechanic as well as potions and enchantments.
Reforge: The mod's namesake perk grants the player an ability of the same name. As long as you have a high enough level and have the right smithing materials, you can gradually upgrade your equipment to eventually match that of higher tier items. In addition, upgrading equipment this way will even provide smithing experience.
Weight Swap: Grants an additional option to change an armor piece's weight class, changing it's armor value to the other class's equivalent.
Weapon Style: Allows for further customization of weapon stats when reforging. You can choose from powerful style, exchanging swing speed for extra attack power, or quick style, exchanging power for speed.
Reinforce: Three additional high-level perks which allow you to push your equipment beyond their normal limits by reinforcing them with Stalhrim, Voidstone, and Rubedite in that order.
--NEW ORE--
Within a select few caves and mines, you can find new ores said to be utilized in ancient times to create the most powerful armor and weapons. While these ores appear to be rather sparse, rumors say that they're more common within Skyrim's deepest depths.
--TO DO--
Add an MCM for customization options
Add Reforge support for Shields, Bows, and Crossbows
Add patch for further compatibility with certain weapon mods
Create compatibility patches for more mods
Odinator Patch
Expand upon the system even further
Fix potential bugs
