Morthal Barrow

In Jay's changelog

What Jay's changelog for GTS says about it, newest revision first. A later revision can have changed it again; the rest of this page is what base GTS does now.

• V116 Early Double Enchants? Not On My Watch!: For some users, it was possible for one of the armors you get as a reward from the Morthal Barrow to be disenchantable into an OP double enchantment that you could apply on other armors, technically allowing you to have up to three enchantments on those. This loop was sneaky as it was not possible for all of you, and it depended on the load order of some free-flowing GTS esp files. In any case, this is now prevented for good.
• V116 One-Trick Pony Spell: The mod “Morthal Barrow” introduced the spell “Dispel Illusion” which is used to dispel the hidden entrances inside the Morthal Barrow. With such a cool spell name though, and given that it’s likely to take a place in your magic spell list for the remainder of your playthrough, I thought it could deserve additional functionalities.
  • The spell description now reads: “Reveals hidden entrances, dispels illusion effects on the target, and clears illusory copies.”
  • Basically, it can now be used on targets affected by invisibility, fear, calm or frenzy spells to dispel their effects. Also, if used on copies of an enemy, it will destroy them immediately. Wispmothers create copies of themselves in combat, so it’s very effective against them. Do let me know if you know of other enemies that create copies of themselves, as the effect could be expanded to work on them as well.
  • It does mean however that it has to receive normal cost values now. The spell took only 2 magicka to cast before, which was done so all characters could use it for this one quest, but having it remain at that cost is no longer feasible. So, now it has the normal cost of a novice illusion spell, which, in most cases, should still allow you to cast it even with your base magicka. And if you have a trait that makes that impossible, then your character has no business casting magic anyway, good for roleplaying!
• V92 Give Me The Best One Already!: The Morthal Barrow mod has some custom rewards, but they were leveled, meaning you would only get the best reward after hitting X player level. This is no longer the case, to be consistent with the rest of GTS, meaning… You will get the best reward regardless of your level.
