📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust with 4,813 endorsements and 1.4 million downloads.
  • C++ rewrite means snappier, more reliable parrying than the old Papyrus version.
  • Fixes the annoying double attack bug that's plagued dual wielders for ages.

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires SKSE64 and a mod manager, so it's not a simple drop-in install.
  • Last updated in March 2024 — might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim patches if any dropped since.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love dual-wielding but hate the lack of parry options and the double attack bug. If you're a melee-focused character who wants more tactical depth, this is a must-have. Skip if you rarely dual wield or prefer magic/stealth builds.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have SKSE64 installed and launch the game through the SKSE loader, not the default launcher.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install the .dll file correctly — manual placement can cause issues.
  • Check the mod's compatibility with your Skyrim version (SE/AE) before installing, as SKSE plugins are version-sensitive.
