Perk points are a valuable asset in Skyrim, they can be used to buy perks for your character. Usually, a perk point is only granted when you character levels up, but using console commands (cheats), you can give your character perk points, or even specific perks - this article will show you how.
- Extra Pockets is a perk found in the Pickpocket skill tree. Luckily, you only need 50 Pickpocket to unlock it.
- Startin the list off with a simple Skyrim cheat mod – one that enables unlimited dragon shouts. As the author states, the goal of the mod is to increase the usefulness and fun of dragon shouts. Not only does it remove cooldowns but it also boosts the damage of several shouts and adds new effects.
In order to use console commands to cheat perk points, you'll need to know how to open and use the console. You can open the console with either of the following hot keys: ~ (tilde) or ` (grave). If you need more help with opening or using this console, check out this console guide.
I let one of my buddies mess around on my skyrim and he put this ♥♥♥♥ on my Skyrim, I uninstalled all mods thinking is was one of them, and uninstalled and reinstalled the game. I'm not sure what these are (I don't use cheats or anything of the such in Skyrim just graphics mods) and I can't get reimursed into the game with these in my UI.

How to Add Perk Points with Commands
There is no command to directly add perk points, but there is a work around. The work around involves leveling up a skill with commands, claiming perk points, and then setting the skill back to the level it was at originally. Here's how to do it:
Firstly, take note of your health and smithing level. Next, run the following commands (this will give you 100,000 XP in Smithing, make sure to note your current level):
First: player.SetLevel 1
And then: player.AdvSkill Smithing 100000
Press TAB, click Skills and advance the health attribute until you are no longer asked to select an attribute.
Exit the Skills menu - you will now need to set your skill and health level back to the way they were before. If your health level was previously 120, and your smithing was previously 13, you'd use the following commands:
Suzuki bandit 400 factory service manual. player.SetAV Smithing 13 (change '13' to your original smithing level)
player.SetAV Health 120 (change '120' to your original health level)
UpdateLevel (this command will update your character's level to the level it should be)
After doing so, you should have lots of perk points to spend for your character!
How to Add Perks with Commands
This method of adding perks is much safer than adding perk points (above). To add perks, you use the following command (AddPerk command):
player.AddPerk [Perk ID]
The [Perk ID] argument should be replaced with the ID of the perk you wish to add to your character. You can find perk IDs on our perk ID list. For the below example, we've used the perk ID 000CB419, which is for Atromancy:
player.AddPerk 000CB419
Skyrim Perk Cheat Mods
As you might've guessed, the above command would add the Atromancy perk to your character.
IMPORTANT: When you are adding perks with multiple ranks/levels, for example Armsman (which has 5 different ranks/levels), you should add all of the perks in order of their rank. Say you were rank 1 Armsman and wanted to reach rank 4, you'd first have to add ranks 2 and 3. The commands you'd have to run would be:
- player.AddPerk 00079343 - this command adds the Armsman rank 2 perk (perk ID 00079343)
- player.AddPerk 00079342 - this command adds the Armsman rank 3 perk (perk ID 00079342)
- player.AddPerk 00079344 - this command adds the Armsman rank 4 perk (meaning you'd now be Armsman rank 4)
Not adding all the lower ranked perks in order can result in problems and bugs, so it is highly recommended that you do so.
