Hi, wanted to say I really love this mod, but would it be possible to make a compatability patch for either the bound mace from Beyond Skyrim: Bruma https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/10917/ or Simple Bound Weapons Expansion https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/21013?tab=files? I would really appreciate it.
When I try to enable it in the game, it says "This mod cannot be installed since it depends on files that aren't present," but the description of this mod never says anything about relying on any other mods.
Loving using this mod in combination with your others. One thing I noticed is the bash on the bound battle doesn't appear to have sounds which makes it feel kinda weird. Not sure if this has always been an issue with this spell since it's never been real useful till now. Playing on PS4 if that matters.
Would the Lite version conflict with Odin? Specifically, the latter lists a change in experience gain for Bound Sword and Dagger, which I don't think this mod affects but just want to verify.
The Ordinator patch merges the effects from both mods, so it's very strong. The listed effects get added to the first 3 perks for bound weapons in Ordinator. I could make a patch that replaces ordinator's effects instead of merging them, but eh, *shrug*? There's also the Lite edition which is supposed to be used with perk mods. Idk, how many ordinator patches do we need for a mod that's not really supposed to be combined with ordinator in the first place? I guess I can make another since I'm updating this mod today anyway...
I created a Vokrii patch and made the weapons do chaos damage instead of elemental in the Vokrii and Ordinator patches, so it'll effectively be 50% weaker. Additionally, I had to make the chaos damage not benefit from any fire/frost/shock increases in Vokrii to prevent Vokrii's effects from scaling out of control. Still works normally with Ordinator though. Should work pretty well now.
I mean, power creep isn't that big of a deal, considering how easy vanilla can be abused. I appreciate you revisiting the mod and patch, plus explaining everything in detail. I look forward to just about anything that spices up bound weapons, which is arguably the best way to improve Conjuration.
Yeah power creep isn't that big of a deal, but when it affects all the other effects too and turns the -25% magic resistance debuff into -69% (nice) or increases the stat absorb from 30 per second to 86 per second, then that's a problem. In reference to Vokrii that is. Maybe the ordinator patch didn't need it as badly, but I heard it was still pretty overpowered. I suppose it's also more fun if each hit has a chance of proccing the various elemental perks in Ordinator instead of proccing every element's effects with every hit? :p

This mod is what I was looking for!
Never see a Stormblast when I attack.....
- I see that there is an Ordinator patch, but what perks in the overhaul are affected by this mod?
- Is the patch still compatible with the current version of Ordinator?
- Why do you feel the patch would be overpowered?
Thanks in advance! Loving all of your work so far, and the cockatiel profile pic.
