Fix broken signs at higher player levels, tested with level 100.
The sign resistances in levelling bonus added to NPCs was the biggest killer of signs, because it's a fixed number per each level, e.g. 0.9% shock resistance * level 100 = 90%! That makes no sense at all!
Without the levelling bonus, most sign damages and knockdown already have sign intensity applied and work reasonably well, except Aard which was forced to have 100% intensity for unknown reason. It might make signs more useful than intended.
Note that the power of Conductors of Magic is always multiplied by sign intensity - a sword of base damage 900 with sign intensity 400% = 900 * 0.5 * 4.0 = +1800 to every sign damages.
Quen shield is NOT fixed (another mod here), because it'd effectively make Quen useless at level 100 and death march difficulty, no matter the sign intensity.
