slayer987123 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) I created a personal mod for my character to give myself the absorb health spell without being a vampire, kinda handy. The spell is classified as a destruction spell. however whenever i use the spell, no experience is given for the destruction skill. iv searched online, Google, you tube, nexus forums. iv tried to look at other spells in the CK to try and find ideas. im fresh out. Any help and assistance would be great, Edited May 5, 2012 by slayer987123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eschaeon Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 To clarify, is this "VampireDrain01" spell? The one with the magic effect "PlayerVampireAbsorbHealthConcAimed"? If so, try putting the Minimum skill level to 1 or higher. That's the only thing I can figure that is not letting you skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slayer987123 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Forgive me for not being so specific, but you are correct as to the Magic effect in use. Sadly changing the minimum level requirement from 0 to 1 had no effect. I am still at a loss as to why it will not grant any experience for that particular magic effect. At default it is already classified as a destruction spell. So one would assume it would grant destruction XP. Other spells such as fire damage or ice damage by default have all the same attributes except for their spell archetype. this being an absorb spell and the others a value modifier, being health. without it set to absorb it doesn't serve the same purpose. Thank you for your suggestion eschaeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your suggestion eschaeon. Unfortunately I guess the Magic School skill usage is inherently defined. Like Destruction skill usage is based on damage dealt with a destruction spell. Absorb health probably doesn't fall under that effect. I imagine theres a solution to this problem and I can take a look at it tomorrow, if you want.
