📋 About This Mod
Count the quantity of Nirnroot in your inventory instead of how many you have picked. Plus, an updated quest log and a recurring quest to sell Nirnroot.
REQUIREMENTS:
None other than the base game.
DESCRIPTION:
- Changes the amount of Nirnroot for the quest Seeking Your Roots from how many you have picked to how many you have in your inventory. Log entries are changed to match this.
- You can drop or sell and not have enough Nirnroot, and can then repeat stages where you have enough or need a certain amount.
- Nirnroot are now a quest item until you talk to Sinderion.
- If Sinderion dies after a potion was completed but before you picked it up, it is placed on his body.
- There is a new recurring quest to sell Nirnroot for gold.
- I included any changes made by the Unofficial Oblivion Patches, version 3. 5. 7.
INSTALLATION:
Place "Nirnroot Quest Revised.esp" in the Data folder. Enable with a new game since the quest allows repeating stages. If updating, just overwrite and continue.
COMPATIBILITY:
May conflict with other mods that affect MS39, Seeking Your Roots, or associated dialogue. Feel free to make compatibility patches.
LOAD ORDER:
Load after Unofficial Oblivion Patch mods.
V1. 0 = Initial version.
V1. 1 = Changed process to log multiple sales in one dialogue session, edited the log entry, and when to speed up scripts for improved feedback.
V1. 2 = Added processing for the very rare case that Sinderion dies before you pick the first Nirnroot.

This mod revises the Nirnroot quest in Skyrim by counting the quantity in your inventory rather than the number picked, updates the quest log, and adds a recurring quest to sell Nirnroot. It's a small quality-of-life improvement for players who want a more logical quest experience.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros

⚠️ Cons

For Skyrim players who hate the original Nirnroot quest's counting mechanic and want a more sensible approach. Also for completionists who want a repeatable way to sell Nirnroot. Skip if you're looking for major quest overhauls—this is a small tweak.
