📋 About This Mod
Part of the May Modathon Month
Arkngthand 2. 0
Arkngthand is probably the second most visited dungeon of Morrowind right after Addamasartus and I always found it to be quite badly designed. Beside the pathfinding issues and generally confusing layout there are also almost no exploration rewards. This mod aims to solve all these problems and make it much more fun to play through.
What does it exactly do?
The interior layout is completely different, some cells were completely redone (Land Blood's Gallery, Deep Ore Passage) and others heavily modified. Most NPCs have been altered to be more interesting in general. All areas are also way more detailed than before.
Mod Compatibility
No changes were made to the exterior in order to maximize mod compatability. The .esp was intensely checked and is 100% clean.
Requirements Only Morrowind, no Add-Ons are needed

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 157 endorsements and 3,666 downloads
- Directly addresses exploration quality, a core aspect of Morrowind's appeal
- Focused scope—a single dungeon rework—means it's a targeted improvement without bloat
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—may have compatibility issues with modern Morrowind setups or mods
- Only one dungeon reworked—if you're looking for a larger overhaul, this won't scratch that itch
For Morrowind players who love exploring and want a fresh take on a classic dungeon. If you've memorized Arkngthand and crave a new experience, this is for you. Skip if you prefer vanilla layouts or want broader dungeon overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up your save before installing, as mods that alter dungeons can affect quests that take place there.
- If you use a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2, install this mod through it to keep your load order clean.
- Check the mod's comments section on Nexus for any reported issues with other mods that also modify Arkngthand.
