About this mod
Adamant automatically gives some perks to the player at level 1. This small mod cancels that and puts the perks back in the perk trees.

WILL NOT BE UPDATED, SORRY

I'm a huge fan of Adamant by SimonMagus616! And I am so grateful to the author for it, I can't stress this enough!
There is just one thing about it that doesn't sit well with me. The mod automatically gives the player a bunch of perks at level 1 (and hides the perks from the perk trees). While I respect the author's vision that those perks should be available from the beginning of the game, I've played too much vanilla Skyrim that it feels wrong to be able to dual-cast and to temper enchanted weapons from the start.
So I made this little mod that un-does this change. It makes it so that the player doesn't get those perks at the beginning. Instead they're moved back to the perk trees (and integrated with the Adamant perk trees). Most of them are just put at the very bottom of the tree, but some of the dual-cast perks are integrated deeper into the trees (because some other perks depend on dual-casting). See the images to get an idea of what I did with the perk trees.
The perks in the question are the following:
- Alteration Dual Casting
- Conjuration Dual Casting
- Destruction Dual Casting
- Illusion Dual Casting
- Restoration Dual Casting
- Arcane Blacksmith
- Critical Charge
- Greater Critical Charge
- Power Bash
- Eagle Eye
- Physician
- Intimidation
- Bribery
SummonerRune Master
I didn't restore the last two because I couldn't find them in xEdit, so the player still gets them at the beginning of the game. Fortunately, they're pretty useless.

Let me know if you want me to make a patch with your favourite mod modifying perks (e.g. an economy mod). Since I made this mod, I stopped using Adamant, so now support is a little bit sloppier (but I still update the mod and fulfill requests because I love you guys & gals).
