📋 About This Mod
Description Amethyst Patch:
As with many of you fellow skyrim modders, I use johnskyrim's beautiful JS Dragon Claws to add that little extra bit of spice to my game. His meshes and textures are truly a work of art, and dare I say - a requirement if you want that "ZOMG 2018 Ultra Realistic Skyrim 400+ Mod Setup". So, imagine my frustration when I found out that contrary to all known prophecies, the mod does not cover the Dragonborn dlc amethyst claws!
- Oh my god!
- By the nines!
Shhh! Do not despair children - for one day a patch will be made. It must be so...
And this is that day, where a patch has been made and the package is complete! Praise Talos! (or don't if you support the Thalmors).
Now... with that being said, what have I done?
- I've split johnskyrim's claw mesh into two separate pieces
- I redid the collision on these pieces and matched the shaders to johnskyrim's other claws
- I made sure to edit the door meshes to use the new claws
Finally, I made sure to include a mod that automatically makes you 1% more happier - happy Skyrim!
Description Helgen Reborn Patch:
This patch obviously requires Helgen Reborn. Recolors the claw and gives it the JS Dragon Claw overhaul.
The .esp is tagged as an .esl to avoid taking up an .esp slot.
Description Wyrmstooth Patch:
This patch replaces the rusted claw with a claw more true to the JS Dragon Claw overhaul.
The .esp is tagged as an .esl to avoid taking up an .esp slot.
Description Konahrik's Accoutrements Patch:
Patches the bronze claw mesh. No .esp required.
Instructions:
Just install as normal with NMM/Vortex/MO and let the mod overwrite any mod that alters the dragon claws.
This small patch mod adds the missing Amethyst dragon claw to Johnskyrim's JS Dragon Claws, plus compatibility patches for Helgen Reborn, Wyrmstooth, and Konahrik's Accoutrements. With over 8,000 endorsements and 1.9 million downloads, it's a must-have for players using those mods who want the complete claw set.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 8,051 endorsements and 1.9M downloads.
- Fills a real gap in Johnskyrim's mod—completes the claw collection.
- One-stop patch for three popular quest mods, saving you compatibility headaches.
⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original JS Dragon Claws mod installed first, then drop this patch's files into your mod manager and enable it after the main mod.
- If you use Helgen Reborn, Wyrmstooth, or Konahrik's Accoutrements, load this patch after those mods to ensure the claw meshes overwrite correctly.
