About this mod Machine translation
TLDR: The world is unbalanced, but enemies will also be level with you within a certain range.
If the player's level is lower than the encounter zone's minimum level, the encounter zone ignores the player's level and uses the lowest level. If the player's level is above the minimum but less than the maximum, then EZ will use the player's level to calculate the enemy's difficulty. Vanilla Skyrim doesn't use max level, and unleveled mods set mininum= to the max value so they never change.
Using this mode, EZ will stay consistent with the player within a certain range.
Example 1: Vanille min level = 0, no max level | Modified min level = 5, max level = 10
Example 2: Vanilla min level = 10, no max level | Modified min level = 20, max level = 40
Example 3: Vanilla min level = 30, no max level | Modified min level = 50, max level = 100
This follows progression on vanilla difficulty, so areas that should have been accessible earlier in the game are still accessible, albeit still harder. The most difficult missions in the game will be EZ's levels ranging from 50 to 100, but easier zones like Riften Ratways are manageable at low levels but are still more challenging.
The loot/magic found in this mod is almost identical to Skyrim Revamped, which is based on Morrowloot. Loot is slightly more generous than Skyrim Revamped and more generous than Morrowloot. You will no longer find elves, glass, ebony, fools, orcs and dwarves random bandits. Glass, Ebony, and Diedric are very rare and can be found from rare and extremely difficult enemies, but only at the bottom of boss boxes in these dungeons.

With this mod, EZs will level with the player over a certain range.
Example 1: Vanille min level = 0, no maximum level | Modded min level = 5, max level = 10
Example 2: Vanilla min level = 10, no maximum level | Modded min level = 20, max level = 40
Example 3: Vanilla min level = 30, no maximum level | Modded min level = 50, max level = 100
This follows the vanilla difficulty progression, so areas that should be accessible early in the game remain accessible, although still much harder. The most difficult quests in the game will have EZ's with level ranges from 50 to 100, but easy areas, like the Riften Ratways, will be manageable at low levels, though still significantly more challenging.
The loot/magic-find in this mod is nearly identical to Skyrim Revamped, which is based on Morrowloot. Loot is a little less generous than Skyrim Revamped and a bit more generous than Morrowloot. You will no longer find elven, glass, ebony, daedric, orcish, and dwarven on random bandits. Glass, Ebony, and Daedric is extremely rare and can be found from rare and extremely difficult enemies, but only at the end of these dungeons in boss chests.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
