V9keugW09Xc This mod adds a Flintlock Pistol to Skyrim. Even though I have tried to balance it to not be too strong. If you still think this is too much then I suggest getting Wars in Skyrim and Deadly Dragons. Then no matter how much fire power you have you will still end up dead. WiS: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=6176 DD: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=3829 Some facts about these guns: Damage: Easily editable in scrips now. I will post a video shortly, or you can open the gunDamageScript in CK. It is fairly well documented. The total damage = (((archery/2) (overdraw/2) 1. 5) + 10) The duration is 40 diminishing ticks over 10 secs. Base range: 10k units (compaired to the 60k for arrows and 768 for the flames projectile) Chance for instant kill: (archery / 5) = % (archery/50 for dragons) Effects: the \"Fus\" shout (this provides the nice stagger effect) Also each successful shot will level your Archery skill by 20 (This is subject to change - input needed). CC: Flintlock Pistol: xx000D62 Crafted in MISC at any forge ==================== Future updates: -Tweaks -bullet holes -bullets -charge system -the true single shot -make the mod more...modular ==================== Flintlock Pistol v2. 9a and b: -Fixed coding error in old version -added notifications of damage and damage multipliers. Thanks to BleydThePirate for pointing out the error in the scripts. Like I said last time there was no testing last time. This time at least 10 guards died. ==================== Flintlock Pistol v2. 8a and b: -due to popular request I have add two versions of the script. One does the normal decaying dot damage (a). The other does all the damage up front in one hit (b). -Added support for Sneak attacks and the Deadly Aim perk should properly increase damage. -Added support for Critical Shot perk. Unfortunately I do not have Skyrim installed at this time so these changes were made with basically no testing, but if things work like they did 6 months ago it should all go well. Let me know if there seems to be anything unexpected. Happy adventuring. ==================== Flintlock Pistol v2. 7. 5: -minor fix so that the overdraw perks actually work ==================== Flintlock Pistol v2. 7: -All damage as been moved into the gunDamageScript. You can easily edit it to your liking. It is explained in the script header, but ill post a video \"How to\" soon. You can even upload your script to the nexus if you want to share with other people! -The damage is now in the form of a diminishing dot. -The overdraw perk effects gun damage -Also as a treat for people who read patch notes I made a little game last week. You will need an HTML5 capable browser for this to work. The Dryer Have fun ==================== Flintl🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is an edit of Pistols For Skyrim, you'll need to download that mod first — check the original mod page for the base files.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install both mods and let the edited version overwrite the original's files.
- Test the pistol in a new save or after loading a clean save to avoid conflicts with other weapon mods.
