Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim 9.28.1

Vanilla Skyrim has a variety of issues. Most would agree that the passage of time has not been kind to it, with a ton of people rightfully pointing out a ton of issues with it. Luckily, Skyrim has one of the largest modding scenes around and a ton of creators have dedicated themselves to fixing the game's many issues. One of them is Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim, which aims to overhaul the rather linear skill system in the base game with one that supports multiple playstyles.

To install the Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim, drag it into the Skyrim Data folder, as well as using LOOT to determine the optimal load order so you don't crash your game constantly, much like most Skyrim mods. Alternatively, use a mod manager like Vortex to install it for you.

This mod totally overhauls the perk system of the base game, making it nearly impossible to list it all in a review. Instead, let's talk about some of the new things you can do with this perk system. Sneak no longer only buffs the sneak attack of certain types of attacks - it now greatly favors daggers for sneak attacks, but buffs every other weapon. That means that you can be a sneaky two handed wielder and oneshot everyone you come across with a sneaky warhammer strike instead. You can also drop a tripwire to cover your tracks in the sneak tree as well. If that doesn't suit you, then you can drop a smokescreen in the middle of a battle and get a free sneak attack on all of them.

All in all, if you wanted to experience Skyrim in a completely different way, then you should give Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim a download.
