📋 About This Mod
Just a little scriptrunner to make Super Mutant Behemoths immune to knockdown. I found that with any mod that increases explosions' ability to knock things down, they became waaay too easy to stunlock with explosion knockdowns.
Automatically compatible with TTW, Wasteland Encounters, and Super Mutant Behemoth Restoration.
Requires JIP LN, and Johnny Guitar.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (225k+) shows tons of players wanted this fix.
- Simple, focused purpose—does exactly what it says without bloat.
- Community-approved with 187 endorsements, so it works for most people.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2023—might not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or next-gen update.
- Requires F4SE, which adds an extra dependency and setup step.
- Only affects Behemoths—if you wanted other enemies immune to knockdown, this won't help.
For Fallout 4 players who are tired of Super Mutant Behemoths getting knocked down like ragdolls, breaking immersion and making fights trivial. If you're a modder or purist who wants giant enemies to feel truly massive and unstoppable, this is for you. Skip if you don't use F4SE or want broader knockdown changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have F4SE installed and launch the game through f4se_loader.exe, not the default launcher, or the mod won't work.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this mod through the manager to keep your load order clean.
- Check the mod's comments section for any reported issues with the next-gen update before installing, as the mod hasn't been updated since 2023.
