✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly buffs three underused necromancy perks, giving them real punch.
- Lightweight and focused—no bloat, just the perks you care about.
- Recently updated (March 2024), so it's likely compatible with current Skyrim versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Small mod with only 48 endorsements—not a huge community behind it.
- Only touches three perks; if you want a full necromancy overhaul, this won't cut it.
For Skyrim players who love necromancer builds and want those specific perks to feel stronger without a massive overhaul. If you're a completionist or roleplayer who wants a more viable undead army, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for a comprehensive necromancy expansion—this is a targeted tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only affects perks, make sure you have the relevant perks unlocked before expecting changes.
- Load this mod after other perk overhauls to ensure its changes take priority.
- If you use a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts.
