📋 About This Mod

Fixes the Spiked Staff Grip's orientation so the spike is facing away from the character when unsheathed.

What's the absolute worst thing a game can have? Bad story? Bad gameplay? The illusion of choice? Or even, Maker forbid, unromanceable characters?!? (Please love me back Scout Harding...)

We all know the worst thing a game can have is nothing more than small, unimportant missed details that fly defiantly in the face of common sense.

Which is why I considered it nothing short of a war-crime that the coolest staff grip in the game (eat your heart out Hilted Staff), the Spiked Staff Grip was such a letdown. Since, you know, the freaking spike is facing toward the characters back and impaling their shoulder.

However, after searching for an absolutely unacceptable amount of time, I had to face the harsh reality, that a fix did not exist. Somehow, amidst the plethora of well crafted and awe inspiring mods present on this site, this travesty had gone unnoticed (or I suck at looking and missed it entirely please don't hate me).

Until today.

Behold, the culmination of a frankly embarrassing number of hours. The spike, has been rotated. Gone are the days of impromptu acupuncture via bad weapon design. Now, all my fellow mage brothers and sisters may bask in the glory that is holding their weapon with the pointy bit facing away from them, as the Maker intended. This is what true victory tastes like!

Please forgive the sleep deprived rant above. This mod literally just turns the Spiked Staff Grip so the spike is facing away from the character when in use.

This is my first mod, so please be gentle :).

Should be compatible with anything that doesn't also modify the Spiked Staff Grip mesh. Probably.

Also requires the Frosty Mod Manager to download.

Additional Optional Mods:

Spiked Staff Upgrade: Just changed the material requirements so the grip is usable at higher levels for fashion reasons. Being Inquisitor is pointless if you can't wear what you want. What are you, my dad?

Refined Greatsword Fix: Fixes (adjusts?) the horns on the refined greatsword model to be less likely to be featured on an episode of 1000 Ways to Die (2008-2012)
