Crafting System Mods

[flyingspatula]

Hi, pretty much I am seeking a better crafting system for Skyrim but do not want to imbalance the game in doing so. So, after a bit of looking around I came to three possibilities that may or may not be imbalancing. I thought I might ask around about anyone elses experience with these. If you are aware of or have used any not listed please reply as those mods I have yet to find are very important as well. Also, if any of the listed mods are compatible with one another that I did not mention, please let me know as I would love to be using more if it does not imbalance anything or cause errors.

 

Weapons and Armor Fixes + JaySuS Swords

• First, I assume these are essential regardless of what crafting mods I use simply because there are a lot of item fixes and the sword mod is just a waste not to use since the guy actually did a good job with balance. I did not include Weapons of the Third Era because in the past I remember major imbalances with some weapons such as silver weapons dropping everywhere but sold for outrageous amounts.
  

 

Smithing Perks Overhaul + Complete Crafting Overhaul

• I have actually used this one in the past, but I honestly can not compare how well it is balanced to other crafting mods. So far, this is the best combination I have found but most likely lacks much that the next mod combination has below.
  

 

Crafting 300 - Armoury of Tamriel + More Craftables

• These two mods are supposed to be compatible and go together nicely with a patch but I have no idea how balanced this setup would be. However, it seems it would add the most items out of any of the others.
  

 

SkyRe - Skyrim Redone

• 
   
  
• While this is not in any way a crafting mod, it significantly changes the crafting perks as well as many items and combat related balances. Any comments on your own experiences with this mod would be appreciated as well.
  

 

Note: I did not add Tytanis simply because it seems to change more than I personally prefer which to me felt imbalanced in many areas.[

 

Thanks!

Uh you are choosing yourself mods or you need modding help ?

Hey, I hope I put this in the right thread... Basically, I am just needing help/advice with choosing balanced and compatible mods with the whole item/armor/weapon aspect of Skyrim. Well not necessarily *pick me these mods* but rather any experiences with the listed mods and any balance/compatibility issues so I wont end up screwing my game up with imbalanced items/smithing. If there are other alternative crafting mods though that I have not seen then I can check those out as well.
