📋 About This Mod
replaces 1st person dagger power attack with strong forward stab animation
requires Dynamic Animation Replacer, no FNIS/Nemesis needed
uses rapier animation created by JZBai from 1st Person Spear and Rapier Animations
recommended mods to complement:
Silenced Player Combat LE (or any player grunt/voice effect remover when attacking) - requires port to SE, save in Creation Kit to Form 44; may require patch with plugins that remove sneak attack sounds
Silent or Quiet Weapon Swing - my other mod for combat and stealth immersion
Replaces the first-person dagger power attack animation with a strong forward stab, requiring Dynamic Animation Replacer. A focused animation overhaul for Skyrim players who want more realistic dagger combat.

- Simple, focused mod that does exactly what it says
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Dynamic Animation Replacer, which adds a dependency
