2. Requirements
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- A working, official copy of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition
- Skyrim Script Extender 64(SKSE64), available here: http://skse.silverlock.org/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Recommended Mods
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- SkyUI: Without this, there will be no in-game configuration menu to configure Dodge Mod.
- Mortal Enemies: Locks enemies in place during attack animations. Without this, you will not be able to dodge most regular attacks since vanilla enemies pivot in place to track you.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3a. Other Mods
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Deadly Combat: Combat mod with vastly improved enemy behavior, timed blocking and timed warding
- Sneak Tools: Everything a rogue needs. Throat slitting, knockouts, traps, trick arrows etc.
- Realistic Greatsword Combat Animation Overhaul: Greatsword animation pack with idles, movement and attacks. Inspired by HEMA, Dark Souls and For Honor.
- Immersive Movement Speed: Tweaks the movement speeds. Running is slower, walking is faster. Moving backwards is faster.
- Realistic Two-Handed Speed: Increases speed of Two-Handed Weapons by 25%.
- SPERG: My personal favorite perk mod. Don't use this and realistic two-handed speed at the same time.
- Smilodon: A lighter alternative to deadly combat.

4. Mod Description
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This mod allows the player to make short, quick movements to dodge the attacks of opponents.
By default, the mod will automatically detect which key you use for sprinting, and pressing this key whilst moving sideways or backwards will make you dodge in the appropriate direction.
If SkyUI is install
Dodge Mod SE adds a dodge mechanic to Skyrim Special Edition, letting players dodge sideways and backwards with a key (Sprint by default). Requires SKSE64 and offers an in-game menu if SkyUI is installed. A port of the original Dodge Mod, it has 1,438 endorsements and was last updated in January 2018.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,438 endorsements and nearly 50k downloads
- Simple key-based dodge that fits into combat without extra menus
- Optional SkyUI integration for easy tweaking
⚠️ Cons
- Requires SKSE64, so you need to set that up first
- Last updated in 2018, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim SE patches
- Only dodges sideways and backwards—no forward dodge or roll animations
For Skyrim SE players who want a lightweight dodge mechanic to spice up combat without overhauling the whole system. If you're into action-oriented combat mods, this is a solid base. Skip if you prefer vanilla combat or don't want to deal with SKSE64.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure SKSE64 is installed and you launch the game through skse64_loader.exe, not the default launcher.
- If you have SkyUI, use the in-game MCM to rebind the dodge key and adjust stamina costs.
- Test the dodge in a safe area first—it uses stamina, so don't spam it in the middle of a fight.
