I am unsure if I'm gonna join the competition. Seems like a lot of my mods give me an advantage, which is a shame. |

Pretty hard to let go of mods that actually make your game. You could just manage this one and see how it goes, then maybe feel like doing the next one! |

True, Sere, but I'd like to join the competition just this once. I have no problem in disabling some mods. My mod list is this one: Spoiler: click to toggle I'm not sure if I marked some of them correctly but, there it is. If ya'll can help me out and tell me which ones I can let go or the ones that can stay, that'd be great <3 Edited by Richard, Oct 21 2017, 06:59 PM.

Richard I wouldn't sweat the small stuff. We're all here for fun and I'm pretty sure you'll find a balance for your mods. Haven't tallied up, but if it's close then no worries. I myself will be more interested in the spooky stories that go along with everyone's daedric artifact retrieval far more than stat numbers for "winning". :boo: |

I'm also using the uncapper. It makes me half as slow to level up. Some skills level up as normal but some take even longer to level up so, but I get two skill points and more health/mana/stamina, so it's somewhat balanced out. |

I don't think you have anything to worry about, Richard. Based on what you've marked, and the things you're not planning to use, your mods look to balance out pretty well. I think that most of us, when we mod, are looking for a balance of convenience and challenge, in other words, we go for a balanced game. :) |

Ditto... what Glarrg and Bram said... If your not playing a mage.. the spells mods are pretty moot.. IF you play a mage, and feel that the "spell mods" make it them advantageous , I'd add ASIS this allow's NPC's to use the spell's from mod's, improves AI, allow's NPCs to use potions.. skills etc.. basically it level's the playing field somewhat. Their is a newer version that does more ...ASIS- Improved that does even more. Plus all in all, it make's the game more balanced... "You are not the only Intelligent" being in Skyrim... Just a thought.. but I'd try the mod first.. cause it does change the way the NPC's behave. Edit: I will decide tomorrow which character I want to use. Edited by Areial, Oct 21 2017, 10:00 PM.

Alright, thanks for the help! Yeah, I try to make my game as balanced and challenging as I can. Right now my current character is playing on legendary, simply because master started to get a bit easy. I usually play as a spellsword. Heavy armor, one handed weapon, a shield in case it's needed and, obviously, magic. I just enjoy playing that way. Oh some spells do give me an advantage, so I might add ASIS. Seems like a cool mod, and it would certainly add some challenge to the game. |
