📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community approval with 8,001 endorsements and nearly 150k downloads.
  • Gives you two size options (50% or 30%) so you can pick what feels right.
  • Lightweight and does exactly what it says—no bloat, just smaller ice spells.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects two spells—if you wanted other ice magic resized, this isn't it.
  • Last updated in 2013, so it's ancient by Skyrim standards—might have issues with newer setups.
  • No screenshots or detailed install notes in the description, so you're flying blind until you try it.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim mages who think the default Ice Spike and Ice Spear look oversized and want a more subtle projectile. Also for players who enjoy fine-tuning visual details without changing gameplay. Skip if you're looking for new spells or gameplay overhauls—this is purely cosmetic.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod only changes visuals, it's safe to install mid-playthrough—just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager.
  • If you're using a mod manager, preview the two versions in-game to see which size you prefer before committing.
  • Check if your other magic mods alter Ice Spike or Ice Spear meshes—if so, load order might matter to avoid conflicts.
