✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (8,500 endorsements, 3.6M downloads) — this is a must-have for necromancer builds
- Directly addresses annoying bugs that break reanimation spells, making them actually work as intended
- Lightweight SKSE plugin — no heavy scripts or conflicts, just a clean fix
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2022 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or other mods that alter reanimation
- Requires SKSE, so you need to set that up first if you haven't already
- Only affects reanimation — if you don't use necromancy, this mod does nothing for you
For Skyrim players who love necromancer builds and are tired of reanimation spells glitching out. If you're a modded playthrough veteran, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you never touch reanimation spells — you won't notice it.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the correct version of SKSE for your Skyrim version — mismatched versions cause crashes.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install the plugin, and check that it's enabled in your load order.
- If you're using other mods that affect reanimation, load Enhanced Reanimation after them to ensure its fixes take priority.
