Description

In the vanilla game, concentration spells with the Absorb archetype (such as Vampiric Drain) do not grant experience when used. This SKSE plugin fixes that issue, ensuring that these spells properly contribute to skill progression.

It should work with all mod-added spells and does not require any patches.

Testing was fairly limited because very few mods add absorb-type concentration spells. From my testing, it appears that only concentration spells are affected; other absorb spells already grant experience correctly.

I tried to stay close to the vanilla xp gain, but I have yet to figure out the exact formula it uses. Until then, the config file of this mod has a modifier and setting it to 10.0 - 15.0 should be fairly close to vanilla. 

Compiled with CommonLibSSE.

Tested on Skyrim SE/AE 1.6.1170.

A 1.5.97 version is available in the fomod, but it has not been tested, so compatibility cannot be guaranteed.
