MGO-Magic Game Overhaul 1.8.6

This mod completely changes the way magic works in Skyrim. It changes spell cost and casting time. Zoom, the way to get new spells. Perks, magical minions and the importance of mana add interesting magical rituals to perform and use powerful unique spells.

So.. still few people remember the beta version of this mod which no longer exists on this site, now is the full version and I will quickly review what it does

MANA / SPELL COST / SPELL CASTING

All races now have a lot of slower mana regeneration, and all spells cost more and take more casting time, but they also reward you for that, so you won't just be spamming the same Fire Arrow spell 100x times a second.

spelling book

Players start the game with no spells, the scratchpad has been removed and replaced by Sword Spirits, the higher your level the higher level Sword Spirits you can buy, when you are at Destruction level 20 you can buy less Destroy Sword Spirits which gives you two basic fire spells, but if your damage is 100 you can buy a larger Fire Charm which will give you more powerful spells. So basically you get very few spells from a book and no useless spells from the book tone.

ceremony

The Summoning skill tree provides you with ritual etiquette, teaching you how to perform different types of rituals to summon useful minions or stewardesses, or even resurrect the dead. These minions stay with you forever, don't add to your total number of minions, and you can even order them to guard your house or carry inventory. Yes, you can even forge a pact with an ideal Master or Daedra and trade your souls for mana bonuses, experience points, or Bone Man minions. All you have to do is find all the required ingredients and then find a place called "Dark Shrine" or go to the Sacrifice Stone, dakr shrines are located around the map, if you want to look for them next to the Falkret Watchtower.

Hallucination - "Kill Yourself"

The illusions have been slightly altered so that advanced illusionists can now manipulate their victims, investigate their inventories, and even order them to attack others or commit suicide. You can also summon spectral vision to stall enemies, or paralyze them so hard that it can even drain their health as they sleep, instantly killing them and permanently increasing their stamina.

Magic - "Yes, you can!"

This is my favorite, and now you have further perks, you can extend your summoning time, you can summon creatures at greater distances, you can even go beyond the 10 minion limit, and as you level up Dremora's astronaut size gradually gets bigger as you get stronger. There are also rituals for those who don't want to carry a body, turn it into a zombie or sacrifice a human soul to its ideal owner.

Destruction - (Song of Distant Immigrants)

All spells from this school cost more mana and time to cast, but all of them do more damage, and some of them can actually knock enemies down instead of just knocking them away, and if you unlock the ram perk, the more you unlock the more spells you can get by doing so. Additionally, there is Elementa MDO, where you can become one with your element and defeat everything. (Lightning mode)

Restoration - Badass Priest, Vampire Hunter

This tree offers a few different ways to play: you can play as a regular healer who restores the health/stamina of his friends or a paladin who unlocks the sun magic spell to kill his undead opponents. There's also a peaceful monk mode that gives you extra bonuses when you use rine, wear armor, and more.

Alternate - Doctor Strange/Jedi stuff

The Alteration Mage is finally viable, as it gives you some quietly good spells to unlock, such as enhanced telekinesis and telekinesis thrust. More advanced mages can also use time magic to slow down time or create time-freezing spheres.

Charming - cool.. I ask

It's not powerful right now unless you master it. All enchantments are weak, but you can make them strong as hell by unlocking new perks, up to the point where you can create people a …
