User blog comment:Jimeee/Skyrim 1.9 beta update adds Legendary difficulty and raises level cap (Updated Apr 8th)/@comment-173.190.175.139-20130306020035

Ok so for everyone that doesnt get the concept of legendary perks then read this

basically by restarting a perk tree that is at level 100 all of those perks we spent on that tree will be able to instantly be reused on any other perk tree OR you can keep some on hand so that when you re-level up that perk you will be able to unlock whatever you need. so lets say you have a level 81 character that has 100 on all perks, if all perk trees were reset than we would basically have a really whimpy level 81 character that has every perk tree at level 15 running around Skyrim fighting legendary dragons praying to god that they dont get blasted by some arch necromancers incineration spell without our beloved 30% magic resistance and 30% spell absorption perks in the Alteration tree. Even though all of our perk trees would only be level 15 and you probably wont be able to unlock anything right away we will still have 81 perk upgrades available as soon as we reset our perk trees. By allowing all of our skills to go back to 15 we can now level them all back to 100 and yes unlock even more perk upgrades. The new level cap in Skyrim will now be something more like 162. and yes that does mean something like 162 perk upgrades. basically our characters will now be able to be ungodly powerfull, that is more ungodly powerfull than previously because some of our characters are already able to do 300 plus damage with a iron sword thanks to a full set of enchanted smithing gear and some crazy strong fortify smithing potions that we concocted. Not to mention our fortify one-handed enchanted armor. ok back on subject there are 251 total perks available in Skyrim, our charcters will now be able to have over half of all the perks in the game. Mind boggling isnt it.
