LE Mods Ideas : Maintened Spells

[Deleted2838758User]

Hello,

I got a mod idea but unfortunately I don't have the skills to do it.

It allows each of the self buff (armor, cloaks, summons, bound weapons) to be casted on the caster infinitely but causes a damage magicka debuff until they are canceled (by recasting the spells) based on the base cast if the spell. So, for example, oakflesh takes 80 mana to be cast and reduces your total mana by 30 until canceled.

I thinks it will be very cool if someone made and I also got some ideas to changes perks that affected the duration.

The conjuration perk Necrcomancy could reduces the maintenance cost by 25% of undeads and the atromancy perk could do the same thing, too.

 

Another optional idea would be modifying the armor's enchantments (for compatibility with Mighty Magicka)

Alteration Enchantment : Reduces the Maintenances cost of spells by X%

Conjuration : Reduces the Maintenances cost of spells by X%

I'm not sure how balanced it would end up being. The player could just stack +magicka until they could run all of these buff spells at once to more or less make them a godmode player.

There's a Sustained Spells mod out there that does something similar, only instead of reducing magika pool, it reduces the recharge rate to approximately account for the cost of casting the spells over and over. I use it, it's seems fairly balanced.

Thanks very much, I didn't know such a mod already existed.
