📋 About This Mod

I don't really like heavy sword swings, so I created this relatively flexible sword technique, which will replace the main character and NPC's combat actions, with 4 light attacks and 10 heavy attacks. I hope you like it

The first heavy attack is connected at different time periods, and the next heavy attack will generate different heavy attacks

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires MCO and ISCAR, so you'll need to set those up first if you haven't already.
  • Only covers two-handed swords—if you want other weapon types, you'll need separate mods.
  • Last updated in June 2023—might have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
