Your followers are able to kill enemies silently. Should be compatible with all mods.

Updated to version 1. 4 You can now use the "Prepare" topic to recieve Takedown Sign. Cast it to the ground near the enemy to give the stealth attack order. Cast it near the follower to remove the spell if you no longer need it. Spell will be also removed automatically when you interact with objects in the city.

This feature was first presented in my mod "Mixed Unit Tactics". I decided to make a light standalone version.

How to make your follower to perform instant kill 1) Give the invisibility potion or fortify sneak potion (they can use the vanilla ones) 2) Make sure that your follower is equipped with sword or dagger. Ranged weapons ARE NOT supported. 3) Keep your follower in the sneak state! 4) Talk to your follower. Select the topic \"Take down the enemy silently\". You OR your follower should see the target (you can adjust the camera in the dialogue mode) 5) Your follower will try to approach the enemy undetected and take him down.

If you want several followers to perform a stealth kill at the same time, only first follower will use package. Others will use the old script-based version.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to place the mod in your load order after any follower overhaul mods to avoid conflicts.
  • Test in a low-stakes area like a bandit camp to see how your follower behaves before relying on it in tough stealth missions.
  • If you're using Special Edition, check if there's a compatible version or use the mod with the original Skyrim.
