📋 About This Mod

Makes Uncanny Dodge into a reaction upon taking damage from an attack - as it's supposed to be - so you can decide when and what to use it on.

I know there's another mod for this, but this is a better implementation - without using scripts, and it works for the entire attack damage, including all the damage instances/riders of the attack. It also checks if you can see the attacker (doesn't work if they are Invisible, or if you're Blinded), and works in Wild Shape - but not when Polymorphed. Completely RAW.

NPCs also use this reaction completely fine.

Should be safe to install/uninstall at any time - no respec required.
