This mod fixes the skills (or perks) in Starfield and adds more info to the tooltips. It also improves a couple of underwhelming skills. There are 2 alternate versions available, one which removes challenges and one that only contains fixes for the vanilla purists.


Armor Penetration: Now works for melee weapons (excluding unarmed attacks.)

Concealment: No longer overrides the magazine perks from Va'ruun scriptures or interferes with Void Form.

EM Weapon Systems: Now boosts the right damage type and scales properly with each rank instead of providing +100% damage for all ranks.

Leadership: Fixed a bug that caused ranks 2-4 to only provide +15% companion affinity gain instead of +25%. Companion quests will also trigger properly.

Martial Arts: Now properly adds a flat +15% crit chance to unarmed attacks instead of multiplying your base 5% crit chance by 1.15. Ranks 3-4 also have a 15% chance to disarm as intended. (Was 5%)

Particle Beams: Now properly adds a flat +5% crit chance, instead of multiplying your base 5% crit chance by 1.05.

Pistol Certification: Now properly adds a flat +25% crit chance for 5 seconds after killing an enemy, instead of multiplying your base 5% crit chance by 1.25.

Rapid Reloading: Now works while throwables are equipped.

Rejuvenation: Fixed health regeneration in combat not working. Ranks 3 and 4 now allow you to regenerate health half as fast in combat, which is what the developers intended.

Shield Systems: Should now work properly in all circumstances.

Targeting: Fixed a bug that made the increased weapon range not take effect at rank 3 only.

Targeting Control Systems: Now properly adds a flat +10% crit chance at rank 4. (Rank 3 already did.)

Wellness: Now updates its max health bonus whenever you enter or leave an interior.

Pain Tolerance: Now gives a 5% chance to ignore physical damage below 50% health instead of 25% health, mirroring the health threshold of Energy Weapon Dissipation and making the skill less of a waste.

Commerce: Now makes vendors restock with 10/20/30/50% more credits. Trade Authority kiosks restock an additional 10% credits for every 10 levels up to 50.

Chemistry: Now has a 10% chance to triple the amount of chems created, up from 5%.

Spacesuit Design: Now has a 15% chance to not cost resources, up from 10%.

Environmental Conditioning: Increases environmental resistances by 15, up from 10.

Nutrition: Doubled its bonuses so that it now makes food and drink 100% more effective at rank 4.

Gunslinger's Guide and Mining Monthly magazine perks no longer count toward the skill total for the Combat tree.
