📋 About This Mod
There is no animation mod for dwarven sphere afaik, so I made one. It's a simple OAR setup and a small behavior edit to allow Spheres to rotate during power attacks for balance purpose. Install it with Nemesis or Pandora.
New animations :
-One normal attack (replace the stab animation)
-3 new power attacks (1, 2 or 3 hits random combo variants)
You can tweak the attack probability in the OAR config files.

- Lightweight and focused—does one thing well without bloating your load order.
⚠️ Cons

For Skyrim players who want to spice up combat against dwarven automatons without overhauling the whole game. If you're tired of the same old sphere attacks, this is a quick win. Skip if you're looking for a comprehensive animation overhaul covering multiple enemies.
💡 Beginner Tips
