NOTES ABOUT SPECIAL EDITION: Both the 1.3.2 version and the 1.4.0 version have been ported at this time.
This mod also makes archery a true challenge – you will need to find cover if you are to survive enemy attacks, as the higher inaccuracy is also accompanied by higher damage (both with your bow and your enemies’ bows). UPDATES FOR SSE (BUG-FIXES ONLY): 1.3.3: Fixes water flow issues. Specifically because it adds a higher error margin for the shots of all NPCs in the game. With Difficult Archery, however, you’ll be able to see your enemies fire with the same level of inaccuracy as you. It seems like every single NPC in the game always has the edge on the player as they never seem to miss a single shot. The description of this mod couldn’t have said it better – everyone is a master marksman in Skyrim except you.
You may find other mods that further enhance your experience (for example, customizable camera mods) but the main goal of my list is to provide you with a set of mods that focus on improving arrows, bows, and archery-related stuff only.
Especially when you install so many mods in your game that firing arrows feels much more realistic and wandering around with your bow becomes much more fun.Īs such I’ve made a list of the best archery mods that I’ve found to enhance the archery experience of Skyrim as much as possible.īear in mind that the mods I’ve compiled are exclusively meant to enhance archery per se. That’s actually a perk patcher, so when you’re done with installing your perk mods, it just copies the final output into a separate mod and unlinks them.Archer playthroughs are always a super fun thing. This will help you streamline your build a lot and avoid spending perk points on perks you don’t necessarily want. In addition to the add-ons which I mentioned, there’s also another little mod that’s called Re-Ordinated Robe Requirements – Less Restrictions on Robe Perks and this will help improve how robe requirement perks function for mage oriented builds.Īnd finally, I also recommend trying Perks Unlinked to allow yourself to progress through perk trees in a way where you just need the skill to be sufficiently leveled to unlock a specific perk. This link is for Skyrim SE ( Special Edition). Once you’re ready, download & install Ordinator Perks of Skyrim from Nexus. You just need to download appropriate mods between them. It’s the same for LE ( Legendary Edition). It opens in new tab so go ahead and click it.
If you don’t know how to mod Skyrim, check out my beginner’s guide to modding Skyrim SE ( Special Edition). Simply load that plugin below Ordinator so it overwrites it.
I use the non-vanilla option which separates blacksmith crafting and improving perks into their own branches ( makes more sense to me). The second mod that I use with Ordinator is Smithing Perks Overhaul SE. I recently just remade my first ever skyrim video transforming it into Dark Souls with. This helps to balance the game a bit better and provide me with some crafting perk points to use, in addition to developing my build the way I want to. With that being said, if you’re playing a very high difficulty version of modded Skyrim, there’s a couple of add-ons such as additional perks at skill level 50-75-100 as well as 20% ( or 50%) more perk points.įor example, every 5 levels you gain an additional one, which is what I use. You will not be able to get all of them, nor is the idea behind the mod that you do. It also incorporates many new powers & spells into the game.
Ordinator Perks of Skyrim features hundreds of different perks to choose from. It also improves the crafting perk trees, even though I actually prefer another blacksmith perk tree overhaul ( it’s compatible, more on that below). It’s a complete perk overhaul, enabling you to play many different types of builds that weren’t possible before. Ordinator is one of the must-have mods for Skyrim LE & SE.
