LE Revolutionary Legendary Skills

[Jueg]

You've ever been by how 'legendary skill mechanic' works? How it reverts your skills to starting point and makes you do everything all over again? Do you find it irritating? Then, without further ado (by 'ado' I mean guessing how you feel about the mechanic), I submit my mod request:

 

REVOLUTIONARY LEGENDARY SKILLS

 

This is a mod request that tweaks legendary skills. When I had made Smithing legendary, I was considerably upset to see the skill couldn't raised any higher once advanced to 100. 'Course I didn't think it was a problem then, because I really hadn't set my bar that high. But now with my new character, I wanted see more of what Skyrim had to offer. After completion of innumerable quests, (which are

 

- discovery of Eye of Magnus, recovery of Staff of Magnus and putting Ancano's head on an ice spike

- digging the Thieves Guild from the grave and making career as a master thief

- becoming The Listener and assassination of a Mede Emperor

- liberation of Skyrim

- joining the Companions and granting Kodlak his last wish

- meeting a sexy vampire, being converted into one and helping her kill her daddy

- traveling to Skuldafn and then onto Sovngarde to put Alduin to his place

- traveling to Solstheim, slaying dozens of cultist's, having a few tentacle scenes with Hermaeus Mora and killing Miraak)...

 

... my character's become lvl 86 with several skills ready to be made legendary and the fact is (wait for it)... I DON'T WANNA MAKE 'EM LEGENDARY. Because when I do they will revert to their starting points and I will be forced to start without even having invested in any points in to them. You might ask how I managed to get to lvl 86 without having made a single skill legendary? Well, I did make a few of them legendary but strictly and only offensive skills. Which are Two-handed, One-handed, Archery, Destruction (and Enchanting and Smithing because I needed to re-invest the points I invested into them.) Then why do I even want it changed you ask? Because there are skills that just aren't worthy of time or even consideration to be made legendary. Such as Lockpicking (Unbreakable), Pickpocket (Perfect Touch), Sneak (Light foot or feet or Assassination), Alteration (Atronach), Conjuration (Twin Souls), Illusion (Master of the Mind), Restoration (Avoid Death). Would you really be that much willing to give up on these irreplacable and invaluable perks? Skills you worked so hard to achieve?

 

I would honestly like an option that allows me to still advance in skills that had already hit 100. I don't suggest complete and utter annihilation of the already existent mechanic, mind you. Because, as the saying goes, some stand around and look pretty while some work their asses off. In my opinion its valuable to have a few skills to invest in so when they become 100, their points can distributed across other skills making the character tougher or more crafty, on the whole. Playing to strengths, you know.

 

To sum up, I would really (really!) love it if a mod was made that allowed the player to decide if I want to go higher or restart with that skill that has become 100.

 

Functionality: It is literally obsolete for any one individual who doesn't mind playing the same game for more than three months. *eye twitches*

 

NOTE: ''Not that I have been playing for three months!'' he says. ''It's only been two months,'' he mutters rapidly.

One solution I'd suggest for this is a double perk ability. You basically would buy the same perk twice, and if you do so you will keep that perk even if you reset the skill tree by making it Legendary. That way, people can pick and choose which perks they really need to keep, and don't have to do without them so much.

 

Those same perks could also be purchased somewhere, because we need more money sinks in the game. Don't like it, don't buy it, and use your skill points like a man.
