Cap player enchantments

Post » Fri Sep 09, 2011 4:29 pm

I use LAME in my FCOM game. I would like to limit the enchantment I can place on clothing for enhanting to a max +10 points and require a Grand Soul Gem. So if I wear enchanted clothing (shirt, pants, boots, cape, hood) with +10 shield I would have AC 50 which is not game breaking for me as I can get that with heavy armor. As for enchanting armor I would like to limit that even more to say +2. Having an AC of 75 at level 15 just does not play well.

Same for adding attributes like strength, although I would like to limit max for this also.

Anyone know a mod that does this? Or is my only option to use petty souls to do this or Tes4Edit?

I don't know of a mod which answers your question, but have you considered alternative approaches to tackling the problem? A combination of AV Uncapper (to give diminishing returns on stacked enchantments) and bumping up the difficulty slider a bit would probably have similar effects in terms of game balance.

Hmmm, I have AV Uncapper because of SDR. The difficulty slider I am unsure about as to what it changes to make the game more difficult (more HP to NPCs, higher AV to NPCs, damage multipliers to NPC). I use Phitts Phiting Fixes to multuply damage x2 already, so NPCs, expecially archers, are able to kill me with 4 or so hits (2 in some cases).

Must be some way to cap enchantment making without an overhaul. I think Supreme Magika had something but LAME is mor emy liking by itself.

Maybe someone else knows of something?

This may be a silly question, but if you have archers that can kill you in two hits, why do you want to further limit your defensive abilities :unsure:?

Anyway, I hope someone knows of a mod that does what you're looking for :).
