📋 About This Mod
I was fed up with how morrowind would use stabbing animations and crushing animation for a hit and miss system "Without a miss animation." Which i believe is extremely hard to impossible to create. Then I realized that slashing looks better for the miss thing because of the swing it made sense to me, So a few hours later I made this mod. Every weapon is balanced to have slightly more slash damage so when you set the options to use best attack your weapon will always swing.
Realistic Combat is a small, dated mod for weapons and armour that changes combat so slashing is the best attack, making missing more realistic than stabbing. With 40 endorsements and last updated in 2016, it's a niche tweak for players seeking a specific combat feel.
