I have the sudden urge to reinstall this. I think I'm going to use one of the premade classes because I enjoy being a gimp and the lore around them. I was thinking of picking a High Elf plus the Apprentice too so everyone can blow me up. Just play the haughtiest rear end in a top hat who owns at magic but explodes if someone lights a candle near me.

I'm waiting until my depression goes away until I play this again, so I don't have it in the way of me enjoying the game to its fullest extent. So, that means it will never happen.

Entropy238 posted:I think the LGNPC mods are pretty good. Pax Redoran is a wonderful extension to the vanilla House Redoran experience - though iirc there's a quest where a girl gets pragnent which doesn't really sit well with some of the other quests. Awww man this reminds me of my last Morrowind playthrough ages, when I was getting really into some goon-loved Telvanni stronghold enhancement mod (might have been LGNPC-related, or it's own thing; I forget). Right as it was getting really interesting, the quest bugged out and I ended up with some rear end in a top hat NPC stuck in my basement, repeating lines and refusing to advance the quest until I got bummed out and stopped playing.

Sounds like the annoying dude LGNPC adds, who ends up in the basement if you use the UI version of LGNPC Tel Uvirith but you're not using Uvirith Inside. I got this bug report a lot because people didn't know to use the non-UI version with Uvirith's Legacy.

Are there any major combat overhauls for Morrowind? I do enjoy the setting and I was watching an LP of it and kind of want to try some big mods with more content but the combat clickfest is a little dull for me, personally. I never understood the weird hybrid FPS/Dice Roller combat as a kid and while I understand it now it's not my cup of tea.

I never understood the weird hybrid FPS/Dice Roller combat as a kid and while I understand it now it's not my cup of tea. use magic or build a character correctly morrowind combat being super clicky is only a thing for the first hour or so, it's not worth ruining what little combat balance there is to make the first few levels even easier e: ACTUALLY hold up i'll just link my old post https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3430891&userid=188957&perpage=40&pagenumber=8#post473178289 you're looking for: Speed and stamina tweaked. What most people don't realize is that fatigue plays a huge part in combat/success of every single action. Running (aka walking at a normal pace) drains fatigue in the base game. Having full fatigue vs. 0 fatigue should make you hit 20% more. That mod makes running drain fatigue much much slower so you'll be nearly full for the most part, making combat / magic / everything else much more likely to succeed mbt fucked around with this message at 21:36 on Aug 14, 2017 |

I know about all the factors involved I just don't particulary enjoy the random chance element or the general one note nature of the combat compared to the later games. I'll look at the combat enhancement mod. Cheers.

Just pick a weapon thats a class skill for you and always make sure you have max stamina before you engage in a fight. Do the first dungeon and the clicking is no longer a problem. I rec running a spellsword as well just so you can always just sling spells when you dont wanna bother with the melee.

MWE is very bad and janky. If you hate the to-hit chance mechanics start a combat specialised Redguard with Longsword and Restoration (for restoring fatigue) as majors. For most enemies you'll have a 62.5% chance to hit right out of the gate and then within a few levels you'll be hitting every single time. Keep your fatigue high. If anything's giving you trouble chug some Sujamma and use Adrenaline Rush. Two Sujamma is enough to double your physical damage, and you can keep taking it if you need more. If you chug 20 Sujamma you can pretty much one-shot anything in the game. Conjuration is a pretty good choice too for getting access to a bound weapon

you can also change the settings so that whenever you tap the button it does the best possible animation for damage - be it chop, stab, etc

I like MCE You just have to ignore/disable the bullet time bit Granted it was a while since I last used it, but this discussion just made me restart the game with it, so e: Also I don't think going "you can just remap the button to do the best attack" is doing much for a complaint of "Morrowind combat consists of too much mashing of one button". But maybe that's just me e2: Literally all it does (ignoring bullet time), is let you a) do flavorful combos with your weapon, giving you reason not to just mash a single button, b) give you sliders which you can use to apply custom multipliers to enemy stats, to make the combat more the way you want, and c), give you the option of having an Oblivion style block. But then whoever thinks Oblivion had worse combat than Morrowind, given that in my opinion that's like the one thing that was more fun in Oblivion, probably won't agree with me on the above. e3: Also the one-button-cast patch in MCP was made first in MWE, too. Among other innovative mods. It's pretty much just a more full-featured version of MWSE, even if it did use to have some issues with game stability in the past. But then there's people playing the game nowadays without MWSE too, so. Private Speech fucked around with this message at 18:21 on Aug 15, 2017 |

swiftcasting in MCP is pretty much all you need oblivion combat is floaty, you're still mashing left click, the only difference is the rest of the game surrounding it sucks real bad

Another decent MWE mod is Crime Enhancedquote:* Guards won't popup dialogue if you have a weapon or spell equipped. So if you want to just fight them, fight away. If you want to surrender, put down your weapon or spell and they'll let you. Also for anyone mourning the loss of old mods, mw.modhistory.com is far superior to Nexus for this purpose, at least as far as Morrowind is concerned. It doesn't come up as easily on Google though.

Also the famous MWE instability is really not all it's made out to be, provided you use the last (1.6) version anyway. Particularly with the MWE patch in MCP that's enabled by default. At worst you'll have to eventually clean your save for references, and Oblivion had that issue natively, so v  ve: specifically this process, but you only need to do it after a few dozen hours playtime: quote:Try a clean save without MWE: Private Speech fucked around with this message at 23:10 on Aug 16, 2017 |

So on my last MW binge I decided that I was going to find the perfect in game house, which led me to investigating every single NPC house in a major hub city (has some guilds and fast travel). I really recommend doing that just to see how much crazy poo poo they put in there. There's pottery workshops, some naked woodelf in a totally wrecked house with bottles strewn everywhere, all sorts of little touches for various bullshit npcs jobs etc. I never did find the perfect house, but it was a fun self imposed quest to make myself ignore all the morrowind abodes houses.

Oh yes, I've done that. My very first character was very law-abiding so I decided my next one would be a rogue type. Systematically broke into every house and manor in Vivec. First time I don't think I even entered houses that were unlocked unless they were connected to some quest, I think I just assumed the vast majority of dwellings would be cookie-cutter content. Lots of cool stuff to find that way.
