Annoyed with the training limitation

[Roland Deschain]

Hi all,

In oblivion, you are only allowed to train 5 times per level. This, to put it mildly, annoys the living hell out of me. In morrowind, you could level however many times you wanted as long as you had enough money. The major reason is that I like to train my minor skills only and the 5 per level minimum makes this very hard. I know that this ensures that no single character can become superhuman in everything, but the implementation is rather bad. Rather then doing it as they did, the develpers could have made training a lot more expensive, so that somebody who wanted to be good at everything had to put in the time to collect the money.

Having had my rant, is there a mod out there that removes this limitation? There must be, if there is a hoarse anus mod there must be a training mod.

Why don't you just change the skill values? That is, instead of requesting a mod that leads to pretty much the same endpoint

I'm not sure what you mean. I do not want cheats. I'm rather looking for a balanced training system with no arbitrary limitations (5 per level). For example, one way that I can see it is a) training is more expensive, so getting supergood will take time, b)training is more intricate (training depends on your place in your guild, how famous you are, etc).

In short, make training still a challange, but don't make it totally inacessible (defeats the point of the game that brags about having so much freedom).

Having a more expensive training system would also help with the huge amounts of money people have due to the fact that there is nothing worth buying most of the time (which is a cause of the autoleveling nature of the game)

Well they just don't want you to level up non-stop by just training so I'm sure that's why they capped it at 5. I think they could have no cap for minor skills though.

Forgive me if my facts are off a bit, but I've seen a mod where you level up slower, but your minor skill still level up at the same speed, or possibly even faster. Something about 5 points changed more than likely.

Vague memory, sorry.

Found on Oblivion mod forums.

I didn't mention it earlier because I thought someone else on here was probably already using it and could be more descriptive and could give you a link.

i suppose they're trying to encourage people to go out and earn their high skill level (by questing/adventuring)
rather than paying for it
