📋 About This Mod
I made a 2H Great Sword version of the Mace of Molag Bal.
Can only be accessed during the House of Horrors quest (but once you gain access to the Abandoned House in Markarth).
Its located in the chest in the basement...no key needed.
Still Daedric in nature, so have the Daedric Smithing perk, as well as Arcane perk for Tempering. Cannot be disenchanted.
Custom assets used are from Billyro. Go endorse their mod!!!! <3
Thanks to CanissaLupu for the v1. 1 edits. Now this uses its edits ONLY, and your Bloodskal Blade will use whatever else you like.
Stats are comparable to the Bloodskal Blade with enchant directly from the Mace of Molag Bal.
Plugin is flagged ESL.

This mod adds a two-handed greatsword version of the Mace of Molag Bal to Skyrim, obtainable during the House of Horrors quest in the Abandoned House's basement chest. It features Daedric-level stats comparable to the Bloodskal Blade, with the mace's enchantment, and requires Daedric Smithing and Arcane perks for tempering. The plugin is ESL-flagged and uses custom assets from Billyro, with edits by CanissaLupu.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Turns a one-handed mace into a badass two-handed greatsword, perfect for heavy weapon builds.
- Ties into the vanilla quest, so it feels like a natural addition to the game.
- ESL-flagged plugin means it won't eat up your mod slots.
⚠️ Cons
- Only accessible during the House of Horrors quest, so you can't grab it early or after the quest if you missed it.
- Requires Daedric Smithing and Arcane perks to temper, which might be a hassle for non-smithing characters.
- Since it's a custom weapon, it might conflict with other mods that alter the Abandoned House or the Mace of Molag Bal.
For Skyrim players who love two-handed weapons and want a Daedric-themed greatsword with a built-in enchantment. It's also great for completionists who enjoy quest-integrated loot. Skip if you prefer one-handed weapons or want a weapon you can get early in the game.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Daedric Smithing perk before trying to temper this weapon, or you'll be stuck with its base stats.
- Since the weapon is in the Abandoned House, you'll need to start the House of Horrors quest to get inside—don't miss the chest in the basement.
- If you're using a mod manager, you can preview the weapon's model before installing to see if you like the look.
