Oblivion Mod:Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul/Geomancy
Geomancy and Gem Dust[edit]
The mods Tamriel's Glittering Geology and Geomancy/Gem Dust have been merged into a unique blend that greatly expands the use of gems. These excellent mods, previously incompatible, are now enhanced into a single package that also partakes of other changes specific to Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul, such as the updated price‐ranges. TGG adds several new kinds of precious stones and metals, as well as transforming their icons and models into what real gems of valued beauty and rarity deserve. G/GD scri pts every default Oblivion gem to give them arcane forces that the player may unlock. OOO expands on the conce pt, after rebalancing its effects in view of the mod's gameplay as a whole, to include all the additions made by TGG.
In order to gain geomantic powers, you must find and read a copy of Report on Ayleid Geomancy. It is advised that you search in the whereabouts of mages' homes or associations in order to find a copy. If you want to disable Geomancy after reading this book, you can do so in the ini file.
The tables below list all the available gems and their effects by type. Spells are dynamically added and removed - that is, they're only available if you have the gem or ore in question. Casting a spell will destroy the gem or nugget - these are all one-shot items, so use them wisely.
Note that the spells have been overhauled in 1.5 to make them more useful overall; these new spells were based on folklore properties, where possible.
