A mod by NutellaPhreak (Taylor)
The Archery Perks Overhaul focuses on three diverging perk paths: general, speed, and power. You can learn as many general perks as you wish but will have to choose between either speed or power as your specialization. This means that once you learn a perk from the speed path, you cannot learn any perks from the power path and vice versa.
These perks are helpful for all archery play styles, and are the core set of perks.
These perks reward you for fighting at close range with a bow and allow you to better defend yourself against nearby enemies.
These perks reward you for keeping your distance from enemies and taking time to line up a perfect shot.
The archery perk tree was rebuilt to complement the diverging perk paths.
