hello, great mod btw. I'm lvl 7 and playing a mage type.

I really like to understand the mechanics of the game I am playing so my decisions make sense.

Could someone elaborate on what increasing say your destruction skill level really does?

Far as I can tell increasing it has not increased my spell damage - according to their description anyway. So what is reallythe point of it and other skills like it such as block, light armor, etc?

thank you
All of the magic skills in Nehrim serve two main purposes;

1. At lower levels (below 40-50), you need a certain skill level to learn higher ranked spells
2. At all levels, higher skill level reduces the cost of spells

For example, at destruction level 20, Your skill level isn't even high enough to learn the Rank IV fireball. Even at the minimum required destruction level for the spell, it will use most of your Magicka, and you will probably still do more damage spamming Rank II or III fireballs. By 100 destruction, the Fireball IV spell will be cheap enough that you can cast it all over the place.

Long story short: higher magic skill level means you can cast a greater number of higher level spells.
awesome, thank you!

How would something like this impact say light armor or bladed weapons though?
