📋 About This Mod
Version 2. 0 is now out
Version 2. 0 onwards will have new requirements: Anniversary Edition + Skypatcher
Please make sure to download it!
Version 2. 0+ adds bolts from Anniversary Edition and makes use of Skypatcher to distribute them to vendors.
This does mean having the downside of more requirements, but overall compatibility should be much better.
Please check the changelog for more info.
Description
If you're lazy like me and want to always have bolts on-hand then this mod is for you. No longer do you need to fast travel to the Dawnguard HQ for your supplies. Now every single vendor that sold arrows now has bolts that restock every 2 in game days as usual added via leveled lists. With the original base price for them.
This means that bolts sold are determined by your level and rng.
In short, this mod adds bolts to merchants seamlessly increasing in quality as you level in a balanced way.
Compatibility
If you have other mods that touch vendor leveled lists, you might want to make a Bashed Patch.
It's very fast and easy to do.
There should be no incompatibilities. It should even add bolts to merchants added by other mods.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 352 endorsements and nearly 7k downloads.
- Recent update (July 2025) means it's still maintained.
- Solves the annoyance of hunting for bolts early game.
⚠️ Cons
- No details on which vendors or how level scaling works exactly.
- May conflict with mods that overhaul vendor inventories.
- Limited scope – only adds bolts, no other ammo types.
For Skyrim players who use crossbows and hate running out of bolts. If you're a stealth archer or crossbow enthusiast, this saves you trips to the smithy. Skip if you use mods that already overhaul vendors or if you don't use crossbows.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to load this mod after any vendor overhaul mods to ensure bolts appear.
- If you're on PC, use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 for easy installation and removal.
- Check your level – bolts won't appear until you meet the level threshold, so don't panic if you don't see them right away.
