LE New Alteration spells?

[droftithedragon]

I've found that Alteration is a very difficult school of magic to get into, and I think that's because there aren't really any good spells for combat up until you get Paralysis (which can be achieved at MUCH lower levels with enchanting or alchemy), which is an expert-level spell - the magic armor spells are also vastly underpowered compared to armor, which can also be enchanted.

 

Here are some spells that I think would make Alteration a much more appealing school of magic to study:

 

NOVICE LEVEL

• Stagger - Causes target to stagger and to move slower for 1 second after recovery. 60 base cost (so not very useful for large groups of enemies at lower levels)

APPRENTICE LEVEL

• Shockwave - Casts stagger on targets in area around user. 135 base cost.
• Adrenaline - Increases player's running speed by +5% and reduces all stamina costs by 20% for 20 seconds. 180 base cost.

ADEPT LEVEL

• Stun - Paralyzes target for 1 second. 185 base cost.
• Rush - Increases player's running speed by +15% and reduces all stamina costs by 35% for 30 seconds. 250 base cost.

Apocalypse Spell Package does pretty much all of what you just described, honestly. That and Dwemerverse add a whole ton of new Alteration-based spells to the game, which I think are pretty good.

Apocalypse Spell Package adds stagger, spells that improves movement speed and a lot more.

Dwemerverse just add many many things that are ALL alteration themed

Phenderix Magic Evolved adds alteration spells that slow time, improve your attack speed, teleport you etc...

Isn't Transmute an Alteration school spell? I'm not saying the suggestions made are bad ideas but, if you just want a way to level up your alteration, get your hands on that spell and a load of iron ore and find a smelter and forge with an enchanting table not too far away. You'll level up alteration, smithing, and enchanting all at once while making a nice amount of money for yourself in the process.

Skyrim spells and powers by wariorkeke adds a lot of interesting alteration spells, like force push, force cloak (throw enemies away when they get near you) etc

Psikotic Skymo Necromancy mod, althou its based on necromancy, adds a spell called "hearth attack" which is basically 2 second stun/paralise for target when not resisted
