Mod Request - Arcane University Overhaul

Recommended Posts

Ok so how hard would it be to just.. completely overhaul the University? The layout and design aesthetic is just... well you know. 

Lets start with the central tower, SO TINY. Like, lets expand the first room a bit yeah? Make it feel like an actual entrance hall to THE ARCANE UNIVERSITY. I was thinking about this a lot and I think if we just used the Skingrad guild interior for the Arcane University first floor it could probably work. Maybe with some tweaking. But the idea is you walk in and you have an office on either side of the entrance and a staircase in the middle taking you up to a second floor. Now here we could put our teleportation pad to the council chamber if we wanted but I think we should add another floor on top of this. Some sleep quarters and offices for the more promenant members of the university. Lets add a basement area for the Orrery and use that big building in the back for an actual lecture hall instead of having all the students attend class outside in the rain. Then we go up again to the council chamber, then again to the Achmages quarters, which also need to be completely redone. 

Who cares if the interior doesn't exactly match the dimensions of the exterior? The tower is FAR too small in the first place.

Next, can we just lower the entrance to the tower to ground level? Like I don't know why these towers have to all be raised up it just takes up space. Instead, lets lower the tower and get rid of this big balcony. Then we can add some buildings around the central tower using our new space. Instead of having all the study halls and stuff locked behind the gates in the back half of the courtyard lets add some actual buildings around the central tower. Maybe just make it illegal to enter them until you actually join the university so you cant just go in and create a spell. Or make it so the alters just don't work for you Idk. 

Lets add some statues or something that looks more magical. Maybe an Alyeid Mana Well somewhere. I was looking at the Verdant Spire by Ch33semonger and thought it was the PERFECT aesthetic for the Arcane University. 

Can we add spell tomes to the university? Like just laying around everywhere? Scrolls? Soul jems, Welkynd Stones and Varla stones? More rare books? More glowing gems in all the buildings? Just make it feel more magical. What if you could buy more custom enchanted robes and staffs and jewelry from the Master Enchanter? Like stuff you cant enchant yourself, multi enchanted robes and stuff. Can we expand the Alchemists inventory to include actual rare ingredients? Like why cant I buy void salts from the arcane university alchemist? This makes no sense. Why is all the alchemical equipment novice level? Can we make it so the alchemy hall has at least Expert level stuff? 

Can we make it so we can remove a spell from our spell list and instead of being deleted it becomes a spell tome? Can we make it so that the council members and the arch mage actually go and give lectures every once in a while? And maybe if you sit there and listen you actually get a bonus? like watching the two fighters outside of the arena. Get +2 to destruction. But repeatable and every day its a different skill. 

Can we add teleportation back to the guild? Like what if we added a whole floor to the tower where its just a teleportation room to each guild hall. and every guild hall has a teleportation pad back to the university. 

In conjunction with this, lets fix the Bruma guild hall after that little incident, and staff it with new people and maybe like add a battlemage to each hall after the quest line is over. 

 

SO MANY IDEAS and no way to do it myself.
