Disenchantable Backstab mod
Is there any mod that allows to disenchant Backstab and enchant any other gloves with it? The gloves from the Dark Brotherhood don't really go well with my set.

That is a bit tricky. That effect does not have magnitude. It was not made to be enchantable.

Best you could do would be to pick more suitable gloves and add the effect for them with xEdit or Creation Kit.

You could download a mod for more unique gloves, so that each general glove wouldn't get that effect.

And if you don't care in use commands you can just enchant what you want
Will be like; playerenchantobject (item id) 000ff15c. With this you can enchant anything you want with backstab enchantment, but of course will ''broken'' some roleplay aspect. I like to enchant a mask from Bosmer set with backstab enchant to not lose any aspect from any set.

I mean, i don't make mods and have no idea how it even functions or looks like, but can't you just check the waterbreathing and muffle (100%) enchantments, see if the enchanting procedure is the same, copy paste it and attach it to the backstab enchantment instead of the others and make it disenchantable? Again, i'm an absolute nobody with this program, but this is how i did a lot stuff back in the day when i wanted to alter something in a game.

I haven't tested, but problem is that it is not scaling by default. I am at work, so I can't pop CK open and check how it looks there. It might be doable, but I would need to see it in files first.

The magnitude of this effect is always 0 as an enchantment, despite the actual perk given being a hidden value. This value is under the label of 'Modify Sneak Attack Mult' and set to a value of 2 in all cases. The value of the enchantment has no effect on the magnitude, though no custom enchantments are available. It doubles the Sneak Attack Multiplier for any sneak attack with a one-handed weapon, including the 6x multiplier from the Backstab perk and the 15x multiplier from the Assassin's Blade perk.
