Improved Arch Mage Robes - Hoodless

Description
Allow me to get this warning out right now. Anyone who complains about cheating will have a deaf ear turned towards them. I am well aware that this could be considered cheating, and I don't care. I made this mod based solely on what I think should have been on the robes of the most powerful mage in Skyrim.

The pictures are pretty self explanatory. The robe now makes all spells 50% easier to cast, up from 15%, gives double the magicka, and triples your magicka regen rate. The boots now give resistance to fire and frost, not just shock, and it's up to 75%, the max you can find in game. And I added a pair of gloves that add 100 magicka, identical in appearance to the Mystic Tuning Gloves. You can find them in the tall wardrobe in the Arch Mage's Quarters. I also upgraded the amulet Savos Aren gives you to the max in game enchantment.

I tested it out and there seems to be no issues. As always, see an issue, lemme know!

@Wilbs: That has something to do with how the hoodless skin was created in the files. I literally found the skin sitting in the appearance files with nothing attached to it so I linked it to the archmage robe file and there you go. I don't know what they did to make it hoodless but whatever it was made any other hood useless as well, and I can't change that sadly because to do so I would have to redo the skin itself and I have no idea how to do that. Blame Bethesda, it's their file.

@DraeneiXirena I meant when I try to wear other hoods they won't show up. Sorry I wasn't clearer.

@Wilbs this is the hoodless version dear, hence no hood. I do have a hooded version though in my workshop files.

When using this mod with a kajiit, hoods won't show up.

I love the idea of the mod. The archmage robes were definitely in need of a buff.

My only question, is it possible to configure the strength of these items? As great as they are I feel the buff was a tad too much. I was thinking along the lines of 25% less Magicka usage, +75 Magicka, with +175% Regen rate. I won't judge the way you built it as obviously the best mage in Skyrim should be the best mage in Skyrim; I just think the margin built by this is a bit too strong.

I don't consider this mod cheating, it definitely is better than the trashy vanilla robes (you're better off wearing master destruction). Just seems to be a bit stronger than to my liking. To each his own, though. Subscribed nonetheless because I can't stand the vanilla robes. Thank you!

Yes, I plan on setting all my mods up for Skyrim SE once I ge tthe time. Right now I am 7 months pregnant in full time college so time is kinda limited right now. I'm hoping to talk to some modders I'm friends with to see exactly what the changes are that I need to work with.

Can you upload this to the bethesda Mods for Skyrim special edition? I love this mod and i'd hate to not be able to use it in the new Skyrim.
