Less Omni-Dragon Treasure - More Useful Alchemy

Reduced the number of potions found in the world and made the Dragonbone elixir less available

OG Skyrim version

For about a year and a half, I stopped playing Skyrim entirely. Yesterday, when I came back, I realized something: almost all Skyrim mods are trying to make the game more like The Witcher 3 or Minecraft. So Miner...or Witchcraft. Armor and weapon modding? They often add wizard-style weapons. Mission mod? They get deep into the lore and try to flesh out the story. Mods that add buildable items? That's Minecraft. Are you distracted by that flimsy armor mod you came here to get? Yes The Witcher is full of this stuff.

But anyway, I decided to add my own modifications to make the game The Witcher fucking awesome. I thought maybe Dragon Age too.

Nowadays, potions are less common in the world. You have to make it yourself. Ultimately, the Alchemy skill can be used for more than just crafting invisibility potions to sell in bulk and utilizing Improved Alchemy Enchantments and Improved Enchantment Potions.

Additionally, Dragonborn are now all-powerful - if you choose the Warrior or Thief Stone, all spells will be 80% less effective, while the Mage Stone will make weapons 80% less effective.

If you want to be a warrior or thief who uses magic, or a mage who wants to use weapons, have no fear. Every apothecary in Skyrim now sells a potion that reverses these effects within 5 minutes.

I also made a version that only reduces the amount of potions in the world upon request.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What happens if I choose a standing stone other than Warrior, Mage or Thief?

A: You will retain the debuff status. It will only change if you select a different Guardian Stone.

Q: Damn, this makes the game unbearable on higher difficulties.

A: I know, right? If you ask me, that's a lot better.

Q: Is it better? I said painfully, you crazy person.

A: Commander Shepard will speak for me here.

Q: Wait, what? Is Shepard a masochist? Is that...?

A: Does he get more excited every time he competes? right. Not surprised at all.

Q: Stay on topic, damn it.

A: Have you seen my Fallout 4 mod? Staying on topic is not my strong suit. I'm proud of it.

Q: The ingredients in magic and stamina potions are disgusting and anything but friendly.

A: Well, you're not a dwarf milking cows or smoking a wizard to get ingredients. And don't complain that you have to swallow it. Many others have swallowed the stuff.

Q: The whole joke about these potions is just juvenile, silly and unpleasant.

Answer: Sorry, you've lost your sense of humor. I'm not medicated for this.

Q: A sense of humor? Are you serious? Making a joke about semen, milk from sentient animals, and pubic hair is just what a fucking kid would do.

Are you really still angry about this? Just drank the potion. It doesn't taste that bad and has no known side effects.

Q: I refuse to download this mod because you are an asshole.

A: OK.

Q: Will you be releasing a special edition for Skyrim?

Answer: Probably not. I think the SSE is just stupid. All it does is improve the audio, graphics, and animations, which modders have been doing since 2011. Hell, the graphics in Skyrim are already satisfying, if you ask me. SSE won't give the Dragonborn a voice, give my Lydia a personality, make attack animations cool, or add FO4 style settlement buildings, so I'm not giving any blowjobs.

Q: Voice the Dragonborn? *hide*

A: Ah, fuck, here we go again. Okay, I'm not entirely serious when I say this, and I don't really expect Bethesda to do this, but yeah - I love a strong, fleshed-out protagonist.

Q: The colorful TA makes it not your own story!

A: This is by no means your story. Dragonborn was cut, beaten, burned, electrocuted, stabbed, frozen, shot and pushed, you said you did all of that? He becomes a warrior/mage/thief master and you try to get the honor? That poor sonofabitch did most of the work. Seriously, I always immersed myself in Fallout 4 with its voice protagonist. Every decent piece of lit …
