📋 About This Mod

Spears By Soolie

GHaxiqlAQ8Q ======== Description ======== This mod adds a variety of 1 handed spears and throwable javelins into the game. -Spears and javelins have their own unique animations without replacing any other animations -This mod comes with a patcher that will seamlessly add spears and javelins to NPC's containers and merchants without any compatibility problems -There is a variant in each base material. i.e Iron, Steel, Elven, forsworn, imperial, draugr, etc.. -They are fully craftable and can be upgraded

===== Details ===== The spear has been used by almost every civilization. They are cheap, easy to make and require little training. They are essentially the perfect weapon for the battle field. And in the words of wikipedia "The spear was the most common weapon of the peasant class of Scandinavia and also throwing spears may have been used by the warrior class....  Compared to a sword, the spear can be made with inferior steel and far less metal overall. This made the weapon cheaper and probably within the capability of a common blacksmith to produce. Despite this, the spear held great cultural significance to the Viking warrior" .... So you would have thought that bethesda would have included spears and javelins in skyrim right???? Well no, unfortunately not. But your wait is over, this mod will completely integrate spears and javelins into the game. I have designed the mod to make it almost indestinguishable from vanilla gameplay, after a while you will forget the spears were from a mod and it'll feel like they have always been there :)

===Spears==== The spears are all 1 handed with custom animations. They do more damage than swords, however they are also a little bit slower so the Overall damage per second is slightly lower than a sword of the same material. HOWEVER, they do more critical damage, have a much longer reach and ignore 25% of armor. So overall they are essentialy equivalent to swords. There is a spear in every material type. ie. iron,steel,dwarven,orcish,imperial,forsworn,draugr,etc.

  • -Power Attacks--
  • The power attacks all have new thrusting animations. Power attacks with a spear will not do as much extra damage as with other weapons, however the stamina cost is significantly lower. Most of your attacks should be power attacks when using a spear. NPC's will mostly use power attacks when using a spear
  • -Regular Attacks--
  • regular attacks do not have thrusting animations, they will use the vanilla 1 handed animations. regular attacks do less damage, however they have a large reach and can hit opponents within 80 degrees from where the player is aiming. Regular attacks should only really be used if you are low on stamina.
