✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 247 endorsements and 5,829 downloads, showing it's a solid pick for unarmed fans.
- Adds visual flair to unarmed combat with elemental draw and impact effects, making fights more exciting.
- Combat values tweaked to match normal weapons, so you're not gimping yourself by going unarmed.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020, so it might be out of sync with the latest Skyrim versions or mods.
- Requires RakuOA's Basic Fist Weapons as a base, so you need to grab that mod first.
For Skyrim players who love unarmed builds and want to add elemental punch to their fists. If you're tired of vanilla unarmed feeling weak and plain, this mod gives you both visual effects and better combat stats. Skip if you're not into unarmed combat or prefer magic/weapon builds.

- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to avoid overwriting issues and keep your load order clean.
