Early Skillbooks Unlock

This mod makes all skillbooks available at merchants from the start of the game, instead of gating these behind player levels. So with this mod, you'll see every skillbook/scroll merchant have an assortment of skillbooks and scrolls that spans all skillbooks and scrolls in the game.

Vendors that sell skillbooks from a single skill will still sell just for that skill, but picked from all levels, from the start. The same is true for general skillbook vendors, they'll still sell all skillbooks for all skills but picked from all the levels.

Note that this also makes it harder to get your hand on specific books, as there's a larger assortment of books that the merchant now gets its inventory from. I did not increase the amount of books for this, as a way of keeping things interesting.

This mod does do things Larian probably didn't intend, as you can specialize and get skills like Spread Wings relatively early on. However, for me this makes the game more interesting, seeing what you can do with these utility skills in the early story lines. I haven't played the game enough to say this with certainty, but it was the same for DOS1.

If you have any remarks/suggestions, please do post them!

I'm also on Nexus[www.nexusmods.com] for not-Steam players!

Do I need a new save for this?
You can use this on a preexisting save or new game. Make sure it's enabled in the mod add-on section of the main menu.

My vendor isn't showing the skillbooks after I activated the mod!
If you've already talked to a vendor before enabling this, you'll have to wait for that vendor's inventory to refresh or you can level up to force a refresh.

Where can I buy the skillbooks?
The vendors are certain ones that sell skillbook, like Butter by the kitchen/arena area, Kalias in the caverns, etc. you can look them up.

The vendor doesn't show all the skillbooks in the game!
Indeed, he picks his number from all the books available. This keeps it kinda balanced and fun, from my perspective. I'll publish a mod that does this later.
