📋 About This Mod

Summary:

This a simple port of the old Skyrim Dual Wild Parrying Reimplementation combined with Skyrim: SE: Dual Wield Blocking and Attack Cancelling SSE. I did not create either of these mods and didn't make the instructions for combining the 2 mods together. This mod requires SKSE64 and FNIS (Fores New Idles in Skyrim SE - FNIS SE - FNIS Behavior SE).

Implementations:

  • []Add animation cancelling. While winding an attack press your block key to cancel the animation and go to blocking. Can be used like a feint. (May Require Combat behavior improved (SSE version). or TK Dodge to add the cancelling)

    []Add Blocking for Dual Wielding Weapons.

    []Add Keybinding for the new Block key.
