✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fresh take on stealth—adds a risk-reward layer that vanilla Morrowind lacks
- Small but dedicated following (15 endorsements) suggests it works for those who try it
- Lightweight gameplay tweak that doesn't overhaul the whole sneaking system
⚠️ Cons
- Description cuts off mid-sentence—no full explanation of mechanics or balance
- Only 15 endorsements, so it's not widely tested or community-vetted
For Morrowind players who want to spice up stealth without a full overhaul. If you enjoy sneaking and want a new tactical option, this is worth a shot. Skip if you prefer vanilla sneaking or want a more comprehensive stealth mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's for OpenMW, make sure you're using OpenMW and not the original Morrowind engine
- Test the charged attack mechanic on a low-level enemy first to understand the health drain
- Check the mod's forum or comments for any updates or fixes, as the description is incomplete
