📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 73 endorsements and over 33k downloads — clearly a popular pick.
  • Fills a real gap: makes the Pale Oak staff actually useful instead of a trophy.
  • Recent update means it's likely compatible with current game version.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only 73 endorsements — a niche mod, so don't expect widespread support.
  • Single-weapon tweak might not be worth it if you don't use staves.
🎯 Is This For You?
For mage builds that love the Pale Oak staff's look but hate its weak stats. If you're tired of swapping it out for any random enchanted staff, this mod makes it a keeper. Skip if you don't use staves or prefer total overhauls.
