Progressed to the perks via Vicio.

Area of Effect (Sweeping Edge) - Attacked tightly packed groups of enemies and get the usual vanilla effect of a sword doing minimal damage. No area effect from a bow granted either. Using an axe or hand there is no area effect either.

Endless Munitions (+1 Infinity) - Had 1 arrow in inventory and shot a bow and it was used up.

Bane of the Undead (+1 Smite) - Tested and it does less damage than a Smite 1 sword without the perk. 6.26 perk vs. 8.5 smite with no perk. I used MmmMmmMmmMmm mod with skeleton hats to test.

Bigger Stomach - No change while running a straight line. Still lost hunger at the same rate as before taking the perk for the same distance. Had Apple Skin mod installed to see the hunger rate easier.

NOT AN ISSUE (SEE NOTES) Hiking Boots (step assist) - No effect has been noticed when attempting to step up 1 block heights. I stop at the edge. CORRECTION: Having the mod [Step Up] included and turning it off with the keybind will also turn off this perk bonus. Disabling the Step Up mod and rebooting made it work again.
