✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid endorsement count (305) and over 8k downloads show it's a proven follower mod
- Standalone body means no conflicts with your other follower overhauls
- Lightweight and simple—no quests or dialogue to mess with, just a follower
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods
- No starting gear means you'll need to equip Ivy yourself, which might be a hassle early on
- Potential conflicts with mods that alter the Drinking Huntsman or NPCs in Whiterun
For Skyrim players who want a simple, no-frills follower without extra quests or dialogue. If you're into visual polish and don't mind equipping your companion, Ivy is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for a follower with deep backstory or unique mechanics.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since Ivy has no weapon, give her a good bow and arrows right away to match her 'shooting knees' style
- If you're on Special Edition, make sure to test her in Whiterun early to confirm she appears correctly
- Use a mod manager like NMM or Vortex to avoid manual file placement errors
