Hey, I麓m really enjoying the game with your mod, so thanks for that. In many cases, your mod makes sensible restricitons and rebalances nicely. I use it with GCD.
However, here麓s some feedback on two aspects I found less than perfect:
You have removed constant effects from many items and replaced them with for x. That麓s really, really annoying in my opinion. Put yourselves in the shoes of a mage. My spell list is so long that even with 1240*1024 resolution I have to scroll a lot to get to the bottom. So to use the enchantment of some item, I have to enter the menu, scroll down, select the item, exit menu, cast spell, open menu, put back on the item which got replaced(say I used the "... for x" effect of a girdle but I usually wear a girdle with constant effect) and enjoy some mostly mediocre effects for 30 seconds for all that hassle. In short, it just makes me never use those items.
I麓d rather have permanent 2% magic immunity than 20% for 30 seconds.
Summons seem "a bit" overpowered. I found it surprising to find that without your mod, it麓s costlier and much, much more difficult to cast them.
Summon GS with your mod disabled: 165 mana, 0 chance.
Enabled: 60 Mana, 100 chance.
Since I麓ve bought the Flame Atronarch spell I never had to back out of any fight, or leave a dungeon and come back later... not once.
Now with a big selection of summons(Bonelord, GS, Winged Tw., Dadroth, Daedra, ...) it really doesn麓t matter what a mod says in respect to difficulty. If I start spamming summoms at something it WILL go down, no chance in hell for it to be different.
So if you麓ve wanted to make the game harder I don麓t understand why you chose to make summoning easier.
I have made an "Undead Legion" spell which costs roughly 40 mana and summons a greater bonewalker, a hunger, an anc. ghost and a skeletal minion at once for 30 seconds. This spell alone deals with 99,99999% of all enemies I麓ve encountered. Not to mention what happens if I add some tough guys to the mix.
It麓s really awesome to have ~10 creatures summoned and see them whack away, it麓s just too easily accomplished.

Aynway, the good outweighs the bad by far, so thanks again
