I'm starting to get into using my mage character and magic spells more now and want to know what are your must have mods? I'm all ready using Midas Magic a little bit and have Telekinesis.

^^ This ... I get a great variety without being overpowered. Although I have yet to use a Breton and it's my understanding LAME makes them pretty overpowered even though their balance issues were worked on.

If you want real NEW spells, those are the ones to install.

^Meh, one of the things I loathed about those old RPGs was having a limited number of spells to cast between resting... why bring that into Oblivion?

Because some people like it. That's part of the whole idea of mods - catering to minorites as well as to the majority (the latter being served well anough by the base game, and certain mods). Those you don't care for... don't install. Simple, really.

I've installed both these mods and they work great!

Question though: Can anyone remind me how to use Wrye Bash to rename my spells to all have the nice prefixes in front of them?

Thanks
