Vorstellung Supreme Magica Update

REQUIRES OBSE v15 and Oblivion patch 1.2

When I first played Oblivion as a mage I found that magic was way too underpowered and it was very difficult to survive as a pure mage. I then turned to a popular mod, Mighty Magick. That just flipped it around and made magic much too powerful. This is my attempt to find the middle ground between MM and vanilla.

This mod overhauls the magic system of Oblivion to create a more balanced, diverse, and fun system. It adds new effects, new spells, and more in order to enhance the game for mages and anyone else who thinks magic is too weak.

The main focus of this mod is to make spellcasting stronger but not overpowered. To that effect, I have decreased the cost of most magic effects and increased the power of their spell counterparts to reflect that change. To maintain balance, I have not touched the spell mastery limits.

* General Changes:

Changes some game settings: armour now penalizes your magical abilities more if you wear more equipment but penalizes less if you only wear a few small objects. Your magicka regeneration rate is slower at the beginning but increases a lot faster at higher willpowers. Magic projectiles are faster and travel further but are still not at the speed of light. Ranged and area spells cost slightly less than before. NPCs also have higher magicka to compensate for their stupidity. Most of these settings are configurable in the customization file.

Magic sneak attack bonuses have been introduced. If you are sneaking and cast a spell at your enemy you is unaware you will do some extra damage. A Master of sneak will do up to double damage with a spell compared to a novice.

Now there are many "circle" spells which deals damage to all enemies around you in an area. Surrounded? No problem! Cast Burning Spiral and blast all your problems away.

Skill and attribute based spells (Absorb, Fortify, Drain, Damage) are now grouped together so that they can be used in more situations. Some are particularly designed to be used against warriors, archers, or mages. Many of these spells are particularly useful for battlemages.

Most positive buff spells have longer duration so that you don't have to constantly recast shield spells and the like during battle.

Included in the mod is the option to have your skill level increase rate scale with the magicka cost of the spells you cast so that higher costing spells will raise your skill level more than lower costing ones. This is to prevent you from needing to spam low cost spells to level your magic skills at higher levels. There are also many other options you can select from the configuration file included with the mod. These options include the ability to give all target spells a small AOE to improve aiming in third person as well as the ability to change the durations of all summon spells to a set, constant amount.

Your willpower attribute will also determine your innate ability to resist paralysis.

* Enchanting, Spellmaking, and Alchemy:

Enchanting has been changed so that you can make more powerful enchantments. Soul gems have higher enchantment values than before and weapon enchantment limits have been raised.

Constant effect enchantments are no longer ridiculously underpowered. Certain effects (such as reflect damage) can now be enchanted upon items at the enchantment altar. But they have been balanced so as not to be overpowering.

A few effects can no longer be made at spellmaking and enchanting so as to retain balance. Charm spells, for example, can no longer be made into new spells so as to prevent the player from making 100pts for 3 seconds spells and to retain some use in persuasion.

Alchemy now governs how many potions you can drink as well. At novice level you can only drink 3 potions while master level has the additional perk of being able to drink 5 potions at once.

Most of these changes described here can be edited in the configuration file or via plugins included in the download.

* Conjuration:

Conjuration has been changed so that the number of creatures you can summon depends on your mastery of Conjuration so that you can summon only one creature at novice/apprentice, two at journeyman/expert and 3 at master. I have added some spells that summon multiple creatures at once. Also be aware your enemies are now able to summon multiple creatures based on their skills. You can set this setting in the configuration file. Note summoning will not work if you are already at the summon limit.

Bound item spells have also been improved. Since you're binding Daedra into the form of armour, you should be able to tell it what form the armour should take. Now, you can! Bound Armour will now become light or heavy armour depending on which skill is higher and they shall have appropriate stats to match. Bound bow also summons an infinite supply of arrows for you although each arrow you fire burns a small amount of your magicka. All bound armour and weapons have useful enchantments as well that increase in potency as your conjuration level rises. Bound weapons and armour spells are now levelled in there stats so that at a low conjuration they are much weaker weapons but at higher conjuration they are stronger.

Conjurers can light up those dark dungeons just as well as illusionists. There's a new bound torch spell for apprentices and a will-o-the-wisp summoning spell for journeymen which calls forth a will-o-the-wisp that follows you around, lighting up your surroundings. The will-o-the-wisp does not fight at all and doesn't count towards your summoning limit.

There are optional settings in the ini that allow you to enable sustainable summons where summons stay out forever at the cost of a steady amount of magicka per second.

* Mysticism:

Absorb spells have been moved to Mysticism like they were in Morrowind so that Mysticism is no longer a useless skill. A plugin is included to return it back to Restoration if you so choose.

Telekinesis spells have been completely overhauled! Now they are very useful utility spells that can open chests, open doors, pickpocket, and pick up items. You can also use them during combat to push enemies back or pull them close by pressing the left or right mouse key right after casting. Watch out for mentally strong enemies as they are more likely to be unaffected by your telekinesis.

Now you can destroy summoned creatures by casting dispel spells onto them. These spells deal massive damage to all summoned creatures so you can vanquish them in a few hits.

Mystics now have the ability to defeat other mages easily with the Spellfire spells. These spells when cast on an enemy mage will damage the mage's health whenever he loses magicka. They are most harmful when used on pure mages who cast a lot of spells or when used in combination with Damage or Drain Magicka.

Mystics also gain the ability to teleport to different places. New, long distance teleportation spells include Circumvention, Sanctuary/Displacement, Divine Intervention, and Daedric Intervention. Extrication allows you to teleport to your last exterior location so you can easily return to the entrance of a dungeon after clearing it. Mark Sanctuary/Recall Sanctuary allows you to place a marker at your current location and teleport to that mark any time you wish. There are separate markers for Tamriel and the Shivering Isles. Also when you use recall, using it again afterwards will take you back to your original location you first used it. It has a time limit though so after some time you won�t be able to teleport back to your previous location. Your mysticism skill increases the length of time your original location is remembered. Divine Intervention teleports you to the nearest chapel and Daedric Intervention takes you to the nearest Daedric Shrine at the cost of some health points. The Nine will not help criminals on the run from the law; the Daedra do not care whom they help as long as you pay the price in blood. Besides the long range teleportation spells, there are also a few short ranged ones. Assassin's Rush will quickly move you behind an enemy's back. Blink teleports you a short distance in the direction you're looking. Swap allows you to switch places with a target NPC or creature, alive or dead.

Those highly skilled in Mysticism can now access the Spellmaking and Enchanting Altars of the Arcane University no matter where they are through special spells crafted for just this purpose. The Mages Guild encourage this practice in hopes of greater profits but intentionally made these spells hard to cast in order to reserve its services only for those deserving of them. These spells are sold by Raminus Polus at the Arcane University.

I've also added some spells that allow you to use part of your soul to recharge your weapon but such an act will temporarily damage your soul. These recharge spells will expend 25% of your maximum health each cast that will only recover after 10 minutes. One cast is enough to recharge your weapon to the highest charge that spell can achieve. The novice spell can only recharge up to 30%, apprentice up to 40%, journeyman up to 50%, expert up to 60%, and master up to 75%. None of these spells are able to recharge a weapon fully so soul gems will still retain their usefulness.

Detect life spells have been re-balanced. By default all detect life spells no longer detect the undead or vampires. Only by being a vampire yourself will you be able to detect them. Also daedra will now be shaded orange while the undead will be shaded white/blue for your convenience.

Any enemies with detect life will now cause your invisibility and chameleon spells to be nullified while in the range of there detect life effect.

They are also two new types of detection spells that seek out the magical essences of objects. Detect Ingredients will detect all flora and alchemy ingredients in the area for you. Detect Magic Items will detect all enchanted items and soul gems in the area as well as detect containers that contain any of these items.

Absorb damage spells will convert physical damage you take and turn it into magicka. While you are affected you will not regenerate any magicka.

* Destruction:

Elemental spells now have unique effects on enemies. Fire spells have a chance of staggering enemies, or getting so intense that the target flees in terror, or blasting the enemy away. Frost spells can freeze them solid for a duration or slow them down. Shock spells have a chance to cause the target to spasm and in some cases the target will be thrown away with great force. These effects work for any fire/frost/shock spells even if they are from other mods or made at the spellmaking altar. These effects also work on the player so beware when you're fighting against enemy mages. Fire spells cannot scare you so instead the flame will become more intense making it more difficult to see. You can adjust the chances of these effects occurring though the configuration file.

Damage Health effects also have an added ability. Now, Damage Health spells will nullify any restored health on a target for up to 8 times its magnitude. For example, if an enemy casts a Restore Health 20 pts spell while affected with a Damage Health 5 pts for 10 seconds, all restored points will be nullified. But if the spell heals 50 pts instead, only 40 restored points will be nullified and he'll still restore 10 pts of health. This effect is especially deadly when used with Drain Health spells. Vampires are not affected by the effect. Since Damage Health spells removes life force and undead are the opposite of life, they will regain health from such spells instead.

This mod features a brand new spell effect, Poison Damage! These spells takes several seconds to go into full effect. The damage starts out low at first but increases quickly. These spells cost more than elemental spells but enemies are generally less resistant to it (notable exceptions are Redguards and Argonians). They also have the potential to damage enemies' attributes. This effect can be used at the spellmaking altar to create custom spells.

Drain spells are actually useful now! Drain Fatigue completely knocks an enemy out for a short period if their fatigue is low enough. Drain Health can be used to instantly kill an enemy whose health is below a certain limit. Drain Health has been removed from spellmaking to prevent explotation of this effect with Drain Health 300pts on Touch custom spells.

There are also a few new Rapidfire spells so you can spew out a constant stream of weaker fireballs rather than just fire a few powerful ones. Each fireball will drain some magicka so make sure your reserves are high.

* Alteration:

Burden spells can now do what they're supposed to do: hold an enemy in place for some duration. They can now root an enemy to the ground for a short amount of time if the enemy is weak enough. If that's not enough then the burden spells will also slow down your enemies movements if they are low on fatigue allowing you to make a speedy getaway if necessary.

All feather spells now prevent those affected from taking fall damage if their encumbrance is at least 100 points below the limit. Burden spells can be used to nullify that effect.

New repair spells with four levels allow mages skilled in Alteration to restore the durability of their weapons. Less skilled mages can only repair mundane weapons and only to a certain point while the experts in the field can fully repair any weapon and masters can even improve its condition above full repair.

Levitation comes to Oblivion! A group of mages from Morrowind brought it with them to Cyrodiil and have taught their secret to a few select members of the mages guild. These amazing spells allow you to take the battle to the skies and fire at enemies down below. Comes with full collision and can be used during spellmaking. There is an optional levitation penalty adjustable in the configuration file that stunts your magicka and/or silences you while levitating.

Levitation's not the only things those mages brought with them. Now the new Jumping spells allows you to leap higher than you've ever gone before! In some cases watch out from using the high level spells without enough acrobatics skill or it will really hurt when you land.

Swift swim spells allow you to swim faster while swimming as well as being exceptional at holding your breath.

Elemental Shields now no longer provide extra armor protection. They still provide the extra resistance to a particular element but they damage enemies that surround you when enemies attack you with melee weapons. You may need to keep out of melee distance with foes using such spells. You can use the ini to turn off this effect and return to its normal usage.

* Restoration

Now roleplaying a cleric or paladin is as easy as selecting Restoration as a major skill. Since Restore Health restores life energy and undead are the opposite of life, they will take damage from these spells instead. As such, all Restore Health spells (including custom and modded) can now damage the undead.

New fortify Jump Spells that allow you to jump higher than you've ever gone before. Unlike alterations one time jump these allow you to jump as much as you want over the duration but the maximum attained jump is smaller than alterations.

* Illusion:

Level-based spells (Calm, Frenzy, etc) are now twice as potent and go up to level 50 rather than 25 so illusion is actually useful at higher levels. You can adjust this value in the configuration file to make illusion spells stronger or weaker according to your personal tastes.

Vampire hunters's rejoice! Now concentrated light spells (cast on touch or target) can be used to deal damage to vampires proportionate to the concentration of light.

Chameleon now has a max benefit of 95%. Over 100% you will instead get a permanent invisibility with a twist. If you do an action people will notice you and for 15 seconds will be able to know where you are. After that they will lose you and you will be permanently invisible again. This now makes 100% chameleon less of a god mode. You can adjust these values or disable in the configuration file.

You can now buy a detect attitude spell that shades your enemies in orange, neutral in green and guild mates/allies(disposition over 85) in blue.

New spells can be found at spell merchants in the cities and Mages Guilds. The Arcane University holds most of the more powerful new spells. A list of all of the added spells and their locations and the configuration text file can both be found in the folder "Supreme Magicka Files" (or in your Data folder if it's in OMOD format). Also includes many optional plugins such as support for Shivering Isles and a standalone plugin allowing you to make custom enchanted staffs.

There is now an optional feature that you can turn on (in the ini) to allow your birthsigns and racial spells to get stronger as you level up. This causes less used birthsigns to instantly become more worthy at higher levels. This effect doesn't affect all birthsigns the same and some effects are not very noticeable. This currently only affects powers and lesser powers with the exception of the atronach birthsign ability. This is a special case where atronach now only gives 5% magic absorption at level 1. As you grow in level this absorption will naturally increase to 50%. Atronachs better stock up some magic potions at those low levels.

*0.74 - REQUIRES OBSE 13a. Finally all effects are fully individual from each fixing numerous issues with spells and totally supporting instant cast spells. This is a stepping stone to improve effects on the player. Fire, frost and shock elemental effects percentages are now based on the spells skill level so for example a master fire spell has a 20% stagger compared to a novice that only does 5% stagger (default values). Fixed many bugs with the conjuration system, The multiple summon spells can no longer be used to create an army of summons over the summon limits, they will instead summon less creatures and none if you already are at the summon limit meaning those particular spells are suited only to the start of a battle when you haven't summoned any summons, also enemies can now summon multiple summons just like you so be careful out there. Improved Shock Spell reliability in bouncing and also added a chance of the shock pushing or pulling the enemy. Updated magicka progression and hopefully fixes all problems while still providing automatic compatibility with mods that change skill rates. Stealth magic attacks have been re-implemented and don�t use the crashy area spell methods either. *0.73 - Readme and description fixes.

I have preventing the player from being able to multiple summon the spells that summon multiple creatures at once as otherwise it's easy to abuse number of creatures you can go beyond, Greatly reduced the potency of earlier jump spells and also corrected the number of points boosted on the spell info. Rapidfire spells no longer continue firing when you are knocked down, Fixed issue where friendly spells were marked as hostile so using on an ally made them attack you, Fixed a bug with the magicka progression system and spells with multiple script effects, Summon Skeleton horde only summons the best 3 skeletons.

* 0.68 - Fixed a spell progression system implementation bug messing up the levelling rates when using spells, Changed how chameleon works over 100%, you are affected as if you had casted an invisibility spell, so doing an action you can be detected only for 15 seconds but after that you will return invisible again automatically, Removed restoration as an enchantable spell as is overpowered even with just 2hp a second constant effect.
