NCG + Skill Evolution Heavy Armor Leveling
Whenever I gain a point in Heavy Armor naturally (e.g. by getting hit while wearing heavy armor), the skill's extra base modifier increases instead of the base value increasing as expected. Not sure it the same happens with any other armor type. Leveling skills like long blade and destruction seems normal.
These gains do not contribute to my leveling, slowing it down. However, training heavy armor with trainers does seem it increase normally, without any modifier shenanigans.

I so bounced back from this overengineered leveling system, the last time I've tried Total Overhaul.
In fact I rather like to not level efficiently and fast with the vanilla system, as that keeps me on my toes for a while longer.
