Forgotten Magic Redone: Unleashing the Power Within Magic, an ancient art once flourishing in every corner of the world, has become a distant memory for many. Tales of sorcery and wizardry have been relegated to mere fantasies, confined within the pages of books and the realms of imagination. But now, a revival is underway, as forgotten magic is being rediscovered and brought back to life. In times long past, magic was an intrinsic part of everyday life. It was woven into the very fabric of society, used for healing, protection, and even entertainment. However, as the world advanced and science took the reins, magic was pushed aside, relegated to the realm of superstition and belief.

Forgotten Magic Redone brings you some of the most comprehensive and intriguing spells for Skyrim to date! Following on from the Forgotten Magic mod, the arcane arts have now been mastered.

While other magic mods oftentimes introduce hundreds of different spells (which can be a bit overwhelming) this mod takes a different approach. Forgotten Magic Redone provides a smaller set of spells, that partially complement each other, and tries to keep them balanced and immersive.

What makes this mod special is that the spells you use will level up with you and enable you to unlock some of the mysteries hidden within their scripts, bestowing new effects upon them as they grow stronger and stronger.
Those who want to use as many different spells as possible can use this mod alongside other popular magic mods without any problems.

Forgotten Magic Redone goes a long way towards achieving true complementary spell casting, by giving you the opportunity to master a set of spells that will cover your style of play, in your schools of magic, while unleashing a wealth of combined effects that will dazzle even the Archmage.

Forgotten Magic Redone adds 39 new spells to your game, each with 10 possible improvements to the spell, 390 improvements in total. The level of the spells is capped at 5. Spells gain experience as you use them, which allows you to unlock a new effect each time they level up. These improvements, as well as the spells themselves can be combined for potentially greater effects; it’s up to you to decide where your true power and nature lie.

In the MCM menu, under Forgotten Magic tab, you can view your spell experience, remaining points, and the talents available for that particular spell. Also, once you've used a spell enough for it to reach the next level, you will receive a small notification saying "Your spell has leveled up!" on the top left corner of your screen.

Spells gain experience each time you successfully cast them. For every level you gain within your spell, the required experience is increased by 1.5 (or by 2, for certain spells). Only the most dedicated will master their craft. The Dovahkiin possesses a certain advantage over the normal fair of mages and can spend a dragon soul to refund all talent points spent on a spell.

For more detailed description, see the Articles tab.

Mystic spells: Arcane Weapon, Cursed Rune, Discord, Phantom Shroud, Spectral Missiles, Phantom Armor
Paladin spells: Divine Light, Holy Bolt, Divine Armor, Hammer of Justice
Warlock spells: Blight Curse, Necrosis, Void Bolt, Summon Deathguard, Deathly Pall, Nether Rift
Pyromancer spells: Fire Blast, Conflagrate, Meteor Shower, Doppelganger, Salamander Touch, Phoenix Strike
Cryomancer spells: Ice Lance, Frost Bomb, Ancient Lich, Frost Armor, Winter Woe, Glacial Fortress
Druid spells: Healing Touch, Seed of Life, Earthbound Weapon, Wild Mushroom, Veil of Nature, Wolf Pack
Electromancer spells: Stormstrike, Lightning Strike, Storm Armor, Skyfall, Electric Charge

IMPORTANT : The "Impact"-perk of the destruction-tree doesn't affect spells of this mod. This is intentional, because, quite frankly, the "Impact"-perk is overpowered.

Whenever you kill an enemy, there's a chance to find random spell book. A few of the easier spells can be purchased from a mage staying at the Bannered Mare in White Run; others can be bought from his associate wandering the roads between White Run and Markarth.

Should be compatible with everything. If you have found a mod that is not compatible, please let me know.

SKYUI and Forgotten Magic Redone = No illusion dual casting

I've been working on this for the last week or so. Basically, I've discovered that if you're using Forgotten Magic Redone (FMR) and SKYUI together (I'm actually not sure if FMR can be used without SKYUI ), for some reason it will cause the dual casting of illusion spells such as fury not to work at the magnitude they're supposed to. Instead of the effect being amplified (I believe it's supposed to effect creatures 2.1 levels higher than the base single cast), it just does the same thing as the single cast for more than double the mana.

I have talked to the mod author Sward66 about this and he's replicated the bug in his game. After a lot of testing done with the fury spell, my findings are as follows:

• Just SKYUI : Double casting fury works 100% of the time.
• Just FMR: Double casting fury works 100% of the time.
• Just SKYUI and FMR: Double casting fury works roughly 5% of the time. When it does work, it works only once that play session and then never again.
• SKUI and the rest of my load order (a lot of MCM mods in here) EXCEPT FMR: Double casting fury works 50% - 75% of the time.
• SKYUI and my entire load order, including FMR: Same results as described above for Just SKYUI and FMR.

The message I get when the spell doesn't work is always something along the lines of "That enemy is too powerful to be affected by this spell." This problem does not affect self-cast mods like invisibility, just illusion mods that affect npcs . Dual casting for other schools of magic seems to work fine (tested it with destruction so far).

Sward66 believes this is some kind of timing error caused by the spell having to run through all the extra behind-the-scenes perks FMR adds once the fury spell hits its target to see if it needs to apply some kind of effect to that target. I should point out that I've looked at my papyrus logs, and I can't find anything for scripts being run on the NPCs I'm testing this with in there. However, I'd like to test the theory. Does anyone know any way to modify the Papyrus or SKYUI settings to open up the window of time that the spell has to run through the possible effects it's checking for? I've seen a lot of Papyrus tweaks on here but I'm not sure which of them apply in my situation.

Also want to again note that even without FMR installed, using fury spells with SKYUI and the rest of my load order installed is not a sure thing. It seems like there's something happening where some of the other MCM using mods I've installed are having the same effect as FMR, but on a much lesser scale. With just SKYUI installed, everything works fine. With SKYUI and the rest of my load order, getting a dual cast fury to have the intended effect on a target within the proper level range is a bit of a crapshoot. With SKYUI , the rest of my mods installed, and FMR, it's a losing bet almost every time. However, removing everything else from my load order doesn't solve the problem between FMR and SKYUI .

I've tried reinstalling SKSE and SKYUI . I have tried downgrading SKSE to the last stable version (was using the alpha). I have tried downgrading through a couple versions of FMR. I have reinstalled Skyrim multiple times on two different SSD drives. I have turned off overclocking on my PC. I can consistently reproduce this with just Skyrim, SKYUI , SKSE and FMR.

The only other thing I have to add is that whether or not it worked seemed to partially depend on what cells I had passed through. If I used Alternate Start - Live Another Life and the "New Member of a guild" Companions starting option, I could have FMR and SKYUI installed and effectively dual-cast fury on Skjor in Jorrvaskr 50% - 75% of the time. He was a good npc to test on, as he starts at level 10. The base effect for single-casting fury is up to level 6 npcs , and the double-casting level cap should be around 12-14. However, if I used the "Camping in the Woods" option with live another life and ran to Jorrvaskr, double-casting fury would barely ever work on him (roughly 5% of the time, same as the situations I listed above). If I started the game normally in the cart to Helgen, it would also barely ever work.

If anyone has any thoughts on this, I'd appreciate hearing them.

Reviews for "Embracing the Supernatural: Reviving Forgotten Magic"

1. Amanda - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "Forgotten Magic Redone". The mod promised to add a variety of new spells, but I found that most of them were underwhelming and unbalanced. Some spells were so overpowered that they made combat feel cheap and easy, while others were so weak that they were practically useless. Additionally, I encountered several bugs and glitches while using the mod, which made it even more frustrating to play. Overall, I felt that "Forgotten Magic Redone" didn't live up to its promise and I would not recommend it.

2. John - 1/5 stars - I found "Forgotten Magic Redone" to be a complete waste of time. The mod claimed to overhaul the magic system in Skyrim, but I didn't notice any significant changes or improvements. The new spells were lackluster and didn't add much depth to the gameplay. Furthermore, the mod caused frequent crashes and conflicts with other mods in my game, making it nearly unplayable. I regret downloading "Forgotten Magic Redone" and would not recommend it to anyone.

3. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I had high hopes for "Forgotten Magic Redone", but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. While the mod did introduce some interesting new spells, I found that they were poorly balanced and often unbalanced the game. Some spells were far too powerful, while others were weak and ineffective. Additionally, I encountered several compatibility issues with other mods, which made it difficult to enjoy the full experience of "Forgotten Magic Redone". Overall, I was disappointed with this mod and would not recommend it.
