Introduction
I originally made this mod for myself with three goals in mind:
The product is an expanded version of Ordinator with a new “Class Perks” skill section that provides thirty-three class-themed perks. Each class perk has two prerequisite perks from different skill trees to give a deeper sense of progression and provide the impression that your skills are blending together into new and unique powers. Class perks range from low requirement bread and butter utilities to higher power special abilities. Each of the original twenty-one Oblivion classes has multiple relevant class perks (see “Suggested Perks for Each Class”). The mod not only introduces new original perks, but integrates features from existing mods into its structure (see credits). This allows for increased gameplay options while removing the "free ability" problem that some players wish to avoid.
What's new in 2.0?
How to use
The Perks
Atronach Amplification: Summoning a daedra with elemental properties gives you a 30% damage increase in elemental damage of the same type for 60 sec.
Berserk: Grants Berserk Power: Berserker rage grants you 150% health and stamina for 60 sec but disables health regen for 30 sec.
Blighted Lily: Enemies killed with Restoration poison or disease spells have a 50% chance to be reanimated as an ally.
Blunt Force Trauma: Attacks with maces or warhammers have a 50% chance to stagger.
Charismatic Whisper: Persuasive whispers make enemies forget you are not a part of their group for 30 sec. Enemies must be calm (out of combat), alive, and humanoid to be influenced. Drawing weapons while enemies are under your influence will cause the illusion to break.
Close Chakras: Unarmed strikes cut off enemy access to magicka for 5 seconds.
Close Quarters Combat: Blocking a close range attack while unarmed or wielding a dagger will slow time long enough for a quick counter strike. Can only perform a counter strike every 3 seconds.
Combat Archer: Tier 1 - Can draw a bow or reload a crossbow 30% faster. Tier 2 - Arrows and bolts slow a target within 25 feet by 10% for 20 seconds. This effect stacks.
Crouch Slide: Crouch slide into a sneak stance by pressing the sneak key while sprinting.
Custom Tailored: Use a smelter/forge to craft a whetstone to increase your damage and/or a hammer to increase your shields effectiveness by 10% for 5 min.
Dawn’s Chosen: Grants Dawn's Chosen Power: Enchants your unenchanted, equipped weapon with Divine Retribution for a time (same enchantment and effects as Dawnbreaker).
Demoralize: If wearing all Heavy Armor, walking (but not running) towards living enemies within 30 feet in front of you may break their confidence, causing them to flee for 8 seconds.
Divine Arbiter: Divine right to judge allows your sun spells to damage non-undead targets. Additionally casting a sun spell will heal you for 35 points of health with a 10 second cooldown.
Elemental Redirection: Grants the channel fire, frost, and shock powers. Use them to channel their respective elements into a temporary enchant on your current unenchanted weapon for 180 sec.
Fortification: Rally spells also apply the beneficial self-cast spell in your left hand to affected allies.
Harnessed Emotion: Recover 10% magicka when an enemy affected by an illusion spell is killed.
Hissing Dragon: You may choose a magical damage type. Unarmed attacks unleash a shockwave that deals the chosen damage type to.
Impending Doom: Your fear effects cause the body to seize, causing increasing damage to enemies as their health lowers.
Lion’s Arrow: Grants the "Lion's Arrow" power: use it to store the spell you are dual casting. Shooting a fully drawn bow in combat also releases the stored spell in the direction of the crosshair.
Necro-Archer: Bound arrows shot at corpses will reanimate the corpse.
Prismatic Armor: When hit by an elemental spell, gain a cloak spell of the same type for 10 seconds.
Prismatic Flesh: While a flesh spell is active, being hit by an elemental spell will provide a 30% temporary increase to your elemental resistance of the same type.
Prismatic Healing: Casting healing spells on allies also provides them with +50% magic resistance and armor rating for 20 sec.
Reverb: Store the energy of blocked attacks with an unenchanted shield. Performing a power bash will release the stored energy (same mechanics used for Auriel’s shield, but applied to your equipped shield).
Ricochet: Incoming arrows can be deflected by weapon or shield while blocking for 10 stamina.
Runic Ambush: When an enemy is caught in your rune’s explosion an Atronach of the same type will be summoned where you are currently looking. Also grants the ability to cast known rune spells via lesser powers (Fire, Frost, and Shock runes will summon an atronach of the same type. Ash runes will summon an ash spawn. While a lesser power for poison runes will be granted if the spell is known, no summon will result from poison rune explosions as poison runes already benefit from Blighted Lily effects).
Scout Ahead: Grants the Scout Ahead Power: Use your tracking abilities to determine the location of nearby enemies.
Sleight of Hand: Grants Sleight of Hand power: let's you pickpocket an NPC as you bump into them.
Sniper: Bows and crossbows deal 200% more damage to a target at full Health.
Special Brew: Use a forge to create oil tools. Oil tools can be used to make specialized oils that grant 15% bonus damage to different enemy types and can be refilled with alcohol for subsequent reuse.
Spell Deflection: Incoming spells can be deflected by weapon or shield while blocking for 10 magicka.
Throw Stone: Grants the Throw Stone ability: Throws a small piece of debris that makes noise where it lands.

- While this mod is still completely functional (and I'll obviously never take it down), for now I have moved active development over to the Custom Skills Framework version of the mod Blended Skills - Class Perks. Blended Skills can still be used with Ordinator, but also any other perk mod you may desire. I will most likely continue to improve Blended Skills until I think it has reached its full potential and then may come back to transfer the improvements over to this mod. But when/if that will occur is unknown at this time. Anyways thank you for checking out my mod, you guys are what has inspired me to keep modding!

Introduction
I originally made this mod for myself with three goals in mind:
- Incentivize unique feeling Oblivion themed class builds in a simple, intuitive manner
- Reward investment into class skill sets without pushing late game characters into a bottleneck
- Integrate the class perks into the progression system without deviating too far from the feel and intent of the Ordinator/Odin base
The product is an expanded version of Ordinator with a new “Class Perks” skill section that provides thirty-three class-themed perks. Each class perk has two prerequisite perks from different skill trees to give a deeper sense of progression and provide the impression that your skills are blending together into new and unique powers. Class perks range from low requirement bread and butter utilities to higher power special abilities. Each of the original twenty-one Oblivion classes has multiple relevant class perks (see “Suggested Perks for Each Class”). The mod not only introduces new original perks, but integrates features from existing mods into its structure (see credits). This allows for increased gameplay options while removing the "free ability" problem that some players wish to avoid.
What's new in 2.0?
Spoiler:
Parity/Requests Update
Hey guys. The main purpose of this update is to add a few more perks to round out some of the classes that were less developed in the initial release. All of the new perks are original and were either built with specific classes in mind or came as a request from users. I also included some bug fixes and a loadout system that I created. I hope you enjoy the update!
Six new perks:
Charismatic Whisper: Persuasive whispers make enemies forget you are not a part of their group for 30 sec. Enemies must be calm (out of combat), alive, and humanoid to be influenced. Drawing weapons while enemies are under your influence will cause the illusion to break.
Close Quarters Combat: Blocking a close range attack while unarmed or wielding a dagger will slow time long enough for a quick counter strike. Can only perform a counter strike every 3 seconds.
Divine Arbiter: Divine right to judge allows your sun spells to damage non-undead targets. Additionally casting a sun spell will heal you for 35 points of health with a 10 second cooldown.
Elemental Redirection: Grants the channel fire, frost, and shock powers. Use them to channel their respective elements into a temporary enchant on your current unenchanted weapon for 180 sec.
Impending Doom: Your fear effects cause the body to seize, causing increasing damage to enemies as their health lowers.
Runic Ambush: When an enemy is caught in your rune’s explosion an Atronach of the same type will be summoned where you are currently looking. Also grants the ability to cast known rune spells via lesser powers (Fire, Frost, and Shock runes will summon an atronach of the same type. Ash runes will summon an ash spawn. While a lesser power for poison runes will be granted if the spell is known, no summon will result from poison rune explosions as poison runes already benefit from Blighted Lily effects).
Starting Loadouts:
On game start a "Class Loadout Token" will be added to the player's inventory. Click on this item to open a menu that will allow you to select one of the twenty-one classes. Basic armor, weapons, and novice level spells for that class will be added to your character and the token will be consumed. The intent is to provide you with the very basic gear your class would use regardless of where or how you start the game.
Buffs/Script Reworks:
Please see the changelog for details. Some perks have been buffed/have had their scripts reworked for greater consistency

Differences from Ordinator
- I did my best to leave Ordinator as intact as possible, since this mod is only meant to enhance the experience
- The Pickpocket and Lockpicking trees have been combined to form the thievery tree (big shout out to the Thievery mod! See below)
- A few perks from Ordinator have been repurposed into class perks (for example Lion’s Arrow having a magical requirement as well as archery makes more sense in this setup).
- An alternative unarmed branch has been added to the one-handed skill. It features the same perks as the original Ordinator unarmed Light Armor branch. The two are mutually exclusive and are meant to provide options for Hand-to-Hand classes (for example a Knight can gain beneficial one-handed experience while fighting unarmed as opposed to light armor experience that doesn’t compliment his other skills).
Installation
- If already using Ordinator use a scroll of legends to refund your perk points so that you can appropriately respec your thievery skills after install
- If using Vanilla, the standard Ordinator perk refund script will run on install (Ordinator must be installed as well as this mod)
- Grab the required mods and install
- If using Apocalypse, Triumvirate, or Separate Power Attacks; grab the patch from the files tab
- Profit
Updating
- Updating to 2.0 will most likely require a new save due to the reworked scripts. If you would prefer not to start a new save check the changelog to see what has changed and whether or not you are okay with some potential bugs in the relevant perks.
- Be sure to update your patches as well!
Compatibility
- Perk mods other than Ordinator can conflict. Please check or ask in the comment section
- Mods that edit the vanilla pickpocket/lockpicking trainers dialogue may break their ability to train you, although I do not think this is common
- Currently the Ultimate Dodge mod and CGO’s sneak key dodge will not work correctly with this mod. I recommend the new Re TK Dodge as an alternative. I personally use both CGO and Re TK Dodge and just set the dodge to “hotkey” and don’t bind the hotkey to anything
- Patches for other Enai and common magic mods can be found on the files tab under “optional files”
- Please install any Ordinator patches you would use for other mods including the Odin Ordinator compatibility patch
- No patch is required for Project Proteus due to the perks being integrated into an existing perk tree
Recommended Mods
- Extended Hotkey System: Especially useful for magic classes. Allows you to use any key as a hotkey
- Favorite Misc Items SSE: Allows items such as this mods Oil Tools to be favorited and used from the favorites menu
- Project Proteus: Can’t decide on a class? Want to start a new class without losing your world progress? Just use Proteus to swap between different characters within the same world. Or, you can make a party of different characters and rotate through who you control. Let’s be honest, that's the only way you’ll ever fill the Dragonborn Gallery.
- Undead FX: Really adds life to necromancy builds

EnaiSiaion - This mod wouldn’t be possible without the base of Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim
- Due to this mod's already large list of requirements some incredible mod authors gave me permission to merge or repurpose features from their mods into this one. Their incredible work is the source of nine out of the twenty-seven perks featured in this mod.
sabrio204 - For the wonderful work done in Thievery - A merge of Pickpocket and Lockpicking (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/49283) and it's accompanied Ordinator patch. Source for the combined Pickpocket and Lockpicking tree.
Sammylad298 - The Necro-archer perk comes directly from their mod, Necro Archer - Bound Arrow Reanimation (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/34579).
NickaNak - The crouch sliding perk and its accompanying Nemesis files were all created as part of their Crouch Sliding mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/39157).
