J'zargo Combat Improvement / Fix

A simple mod that fixes the rather annoying instances where J'zargo would run straight into battle with nothing but sparks and his fists equipped. Through some simple editing of J'zargo's Combat Style in the Creation Kit, the Khajiit mage is now noticably more useful at higher levels.

This mod makes the following changes to J'zargo:
-He can now dual wield.
-He is set to essential (meaning he won't die, he'll just temporarily crouch on the ground when his health hits zero.)
-He has a much higher probability of using melee weapons.
-He has no probability (0% chance) of using just his fists in combat.
-He has a lower probability of using magic.
-UPDATE: J'zargo now has the perks Augmented Flames (2/2), Augmented Frost (2/2), and Augmented Shock (2/2). (Not shown in video)

I highly suggest putting this mod below other follower-affecting mods in the load order. Other than that there should be no conflicts.

Now you're probably wondering... why would you decrease the probability of magic attacks on a mage character? Well, because of the way J'zargo's AI works, he has an insane affinity towards using magic over... everything else, even when he's standing right in front of the enemy! You can even give him epicly enchanted dual daedric swords (like the ones in the video), and he'll simply run up and punch the enemy in the face and/or continually cast sparks - one of the weakest spells in the game. While it is hilarious... it dosen't get very much done at higher levels.

The changes above cause J'zargo to, once he enters melee range (or runs out of magicka), switch over to whatever the most powerful melee weapon in his inventory is. The additional power granted by the Augmented Perks also makes all of his other ranged magic attacks worthwhile - even Sparks.

If you don't want J'zargo to use melee weapons, and you just want this mod for the removal of J'zargo's crazy confidence in his fists, along with the additional buff to his overall magic power, then simply don't give J'zargo any regular weapons. (Keep in mind though, that, before this mod, the reason that J'zargo would switch out of magic and into unarmed combat was because he was out of magicka. If you decide not to give J'zargo regular weapons and you see him cast a few spells and then stop... its because he ran out of magicka and is waiting for it to recharge.)

Feedback is appreciated!
