Aw man, even the infinite Stamina trick? That's a bummer ... I'm curious to know how they pegged that down, if it does indeed not work with the unofficial patches. I spent a while digging through TES5Edit and the Creation Kit trying to figure out how it works, and so did James. Al and Parabolda and others have also looked into this extensively in-game. I guess the USKP team are savants or something. -_-
The Taper mechanics should still work, as they're really not glitches at all — the nature of Necromage is that it is supposed to extend damage by 25% and duration by 50%, and for the taper mechanic, that's precisely what it does. The reason it leads to so much more damage is because the taper curve is not linear. It would be a shame if the USKP "fixed" this, since it's not a trick at all, just some advanced manipulation of a mathematical function in the game.
This mod *might* let you be able to use the "advanced atronach perk" with the unofficial patch. It definitely lets Restoration potions buff perks and enchants again, so it may cover the other schools too. Worth a shot, at least.
In any case, thanks for the like. If you're able to salvage anything from it for a future playthrough, that's enough of a win in my book.
