Brief description:
This pack will rebalance the game and make it fun at all levels, up to level 100 and beyond. It fits both new and experienced players.
Pre-installation texts:
Template:Notice Small
What to expect from the pack:
Big parts of this pack was done by Garfink. Big thanks to him. The aim of Skyrim Gameplay Rebalance is to rebalance Skyrim's difficulty without making enemies into health-sinks. This is achieved by adjusting sizes of mobs, increasing spawn points, the types of spawns, giving more potions, magicks and perks to the NPCs, improving their AI and allowing NPCs to use enchantments, all the while not nerfing the hero. There are also mods that add gameplay functionality featured in this pack. This pack was balanced by Garfink. Garfinks rebalancing was in my opinion focused on a hardcore player and with all mods recommended by him the game was impossible for me to play. I am more of a casual player. Even so, many people will enjoy the full experience of this pack. I have split the pack into two parts where the second part is only installed by experienced hardcore players.
Pre-Installation Setup:
This pach is fully compatible with both STEP: Core and STEP: Extended.
Other packs
This pack is compatible with all the packs listed above. If you use more than this pack you need to build your own patch to be used with the original STEP: Core/Extended patch. More information about that can be found here
Skyrim Revisited: Legendary Edition
http://wiki.step-project.com/User:Neovalen/Skyrim_Revisited_-_Legendary_Edition
Skyrim Revisited: Legendary Edition is more of a replacement for STEP than a pack. I do not have time to test for conflicts against SR:LE, but many of the mods in SR:LE is used in my packs. If you follow Neovalens conflict resolution guide you will learn to do conflict resolution yourself and it will be quite easy to get my packs compatible with his guide.
A real explorers guide to Skyrim (REGS)
http://wiki.step-project.com/Pack:Explorers_Guide
I have made patches to make my packs compatible with REGS. REGS is modular, which means you can use parts of REGS if you like. A full REGS install with STEP: Extended and several other packs may (probably) be too much for your computer and the game engine. It can be done though and I use such a setup myself.
The patches for REGS will solve conflicts between my packs and REGS but please note that quest and city mods from REGS includes high level loot that may break some of the philosophy/function from Morrowloot. REGS is still very recommended.
Survival
Highly recommended pack focused on survival.
Dovahkiin Reborn
Pack by me focused on player races, skills, powers, spells etc. Highly recommended.
Deleveled Loot
Pack by me that delevels loot.
Skyrim Gameplay Rebalance
Pack by me focused on balancing gameplay by making it harder, more fun and by adding gameplay elements. Highly recommended.

Post-Installation Configuration
LOOT rules
- Check that you load High Level Enemies - Hardcore.esp after Rebirth Monster.esp (it should do this by default)
- Load Endgame NPC Overhaul.esp before any follower mods and after any multi-management follower mods plugins (like UFO/EFF)
- Load Rebirth Monster.esp after High Level Enemies - SIC.esp
Patches
Patchers
If you have installed the hardcore mods you have ASIS installed. Just like Dual Sheath Redux this mod features a patcher. To make sure both patchers are executed in the right order, we install SUM.
- Download and install SUM
- Add executables for SUM.
Click on the data tab on the right side of Mod Organizer Expand SkyProc Patchers Expand SUM Right click SUM.jar, choose Add as executable Click OK
- Run the SUM dynamic patch through MO. Make sure all patchers you use are ticked. Click on SUM options [open]. Make sure everything is Unticked. Click on patcher list [open] to return. Click on settings after every patcher and set them up using the following settings:
- ASIS - Make sure only the following is ticked:
Increased Spawns Automatic Perks Automatic Spells Customized AI NPC potions [NPC Potions defaut number of potions 2, chance per potion 5] NPC enchantment fix
Click open at Increases spawns. Change the settings as follows if you use High level enemies hardcore:
50 100 10 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 Use interior spwans Reduce interior Spawn chance 2
If you do not use High level enemies hardcore, you can turn up the spawn settings a little:
50 100 10 10 3 2 0 0 0 0 Use interior spawns Reduce interior Spawn chance 2
- Dual Sheath Redux
Use settings from STEP (if any) or any pack that you uses that change these
FNIS, Bashed patch, Dual Sheath Redux
Make a habit of always rebuilding the bashed patch, running FNIS and Dual Sheath Redux after you have installed/uninstalled mods.
MCM Settings
To make it more user friendly, here is a collection of all in-game settings, MCM settings and console commands in a goggle doc to make it easy to view them on your phone:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-FjQl0COAjeZRrXe6MG_sEpt198aVmmEmTSvikA2Dek/edit?usp=sharing
Please take a glance at all MCM configurable mods that you use. There are several settings and tweaks you might want to use that I haven't brought up due to it not being important to what we intend to do with this pack.
Thanks
This pack used to be a part of a bigger pack that I developed with the help of Nicopad and Garfink. Big thanks to them.
