Unlimited Perks

[GotMeFaded]

So I had been searching the web for awhile to find a way to have unlimited perk unlocks. Most of the things I found would give you max skills or all of the perks unlocked instantly, but that was not what I was going for at all.

What I wanted was a way to be able to still level up all my skills, and unlock the perks when they became available. Of course, you could always use the console command for this, to unlock each perk individually, but that just wouldn't feel the same to me. My characters always end up being the "Jack of all Trades" type, and that doesn't help with choosing Perk Distributions. And since I play on Xbox, and only use the PC version for console commands (don't ask me why), this was also the only way to do this. So after looking around the web, I compiled a way to easily (takes like 15 minutes total), have all the perk unlocks you will ever need. And this is safe to use on your main character, just make a back up save, just because.

 

So here we go:

STEP ONE [Gathering the Materials]:

-Download and Install ArtMoney: Link

 

STEP TWO [Prepare the Programs]:

-Open ArtMoney

-Open Skyrim, load up your save

-AltTab to ArtMoney, and click the little down arrow next to the Select Process bar, and choose Skyrim

 

STEP THREE [Preparing the Player]:

-Open Console Commands in Skyrim with the "~" button on your keyboard, and set your character's level to 1 using this command:

player.setlevel 1

-Using Console Commands, set a skill of your choice (for tutorial reasons, I will choose pickpocket), to level 1 using this command:

player.setav pickpocket 1

 

STEP FOUR [That Tedious Part]:

-Now begin to level up that skill until your character levels up, thus unlocking you a perk, using this command:

incpcs pickpocket

-This part takes a little while, but you don't have to do it forever, keep reading.

-Once you level up, open up your skills, raise a stat (Health, Magicka, Stamina, doesn't matter), and do not spend the perk point. You should have one perk available to spend.

-Now AltTab to ArtMoney, and click the Search button, and type 1 in for value, and hit OK. You'll get a ton of results, I got a little over a million.

-AltTab back to Skyrim, and continue to raise your pickpocket skill until you level up again. Once you do, raise a stat, and don't spend your perks. You should have two perks available.

-AltTab to ArtMoney, and use the Filter button, and type in 2 (this represents your current number of perks) for value, and hit OK. This will narrow down the amount of results you have.

-Keep repeating this process, (getting another perk unlock, and filtering the search in ArtMoney), until you have narrowed it down to 2 results.

 

STEP FIVE [Almost There!]:

-Now that you have narrowed down the search to two results, you should see that one result is a Type 2 Byte, and the other is a Type 4 Byte. Click on the Type 2 Byte, and click the Red Arrow to move it to the other box. You will now see the number of perks you have available to use under value.

-Double click on that number, and type in 251. This is the total number of perks you will ever want or need for your character.

-AltTab to Skyrim to see if you have 251 perks available, which you should. If it has worked, go ahead and save your game, and you can close ArtMoney. You're done.

 

STEP SIX [Optional, Getting Your Character Back To The Original Stats]:

-I did this because I didn't want to feel like I was cheating, I wanted to unlock the perks as my character used them. If you know the Console Commands well, this isn't that hard. Just load back your original save and see how much health, magicka, and stamina you originally had, and your original pickpocket skill level. Remember the values, and then load the save with all the perks.

-To set Health, Magicka, or Stamina back to normal, use this (as an example)

player.setav magicka 290

This would set your Magicka back to 290.

-To set your pickpocket (or whichever skill you used) back to normal, use this

player.setav skill 17

This would set your pickpocket skill back to 17.

 

And that's it. If you have any comments or questions, feel free to say something, I'll be watching this as much as I can.

I also should give credit to VMob of Gamefaqs and Ziraxle of Gamespot for their information, because using those two guides allowed me to compile this one. And to the nice people of the Elderscrolls Wikia for posting the known console commands. Thanks for reading!
