✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,809 endorsements and nearly 90k downloads.
- Solves a real annoyance—Clairvoyance's clunky pathfinding.
- Lightweight and focused, does one thing well.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in December 2020, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or mods.
- Replaces the original spell, so you lose the vanilla version unless you keep a backup.
- Compatibility risk with other magic overhauls that touch Clairvoyance.
For Skyrim players who use Clairvoyance but wish it were smoother and more immersive. If you're a completionist or explorer who relies on wayfinding, this is a must-try. Skip if you never use Clairvoyance or prefer gameplay overhauls that change magic entirely.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to load this mod after any magic overhaul mods to ensure it takes effect.
- If you're using a mod manager, preview the file structure to confirm it's just a plugin and no loose files.
- Test the spell in a dungeon to see if the new effect suits your playstyle.
