now i'm not asking this in a literal sense, more from a gameplay perspective:

recharge times on shouts are, for the most part, ridiculous. with how quickly most fights go in skyrim, you'll most often shout once per battle at most. Even then how often do most of you shout per playthrough?

another point is that shouts have too little power compared to often you can or will use them.

now these issues could possibly be fixed by adding a skill for shouts once you can do so; leveling this skill would reduce recharge times and certain perks on the skill tree could raise the effectiveness of certain shout effects

tell me your thoughts and additional ideas if you have them.
