📋 About This Mod
During a magic only play through with my mod setup I had trouble seeing in the dark. Sure, torches work but why would a mage have to resort to that? This is where the Candlelight and Magelight spells come in but I got sick of constantly having to cast them so here's a little mod I made to hopefully make it less frustrating for anyone else with this issue as well.
INSTALLATION
Install it as you would any other mod.
COMPATIBILITY
Should work with just about anything provided it doesn't change anything with either of the spells. If something does come up though, feel free to let me know.
This mod extends the duration of Candlelight and Magelight spells in Skyrim, offering three versions: 2, 5, or 10 minutes. It's a simple quality-of-life tweak for players who dislike recasting light spells frequently. With 249 endorsements and a 2020 update, it's a stable, lightweight choice.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 249 endorsements and over 5,000 downloads
- Three duration options let you pick your preferred balance
- No compatibility headaches—just a simple spell duration tweak
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects two spells, so it's a narrow fix
- Last updated in 2020, so it may not be tested with the latest Skyrim versions
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter spell durations or magic effects
For Skyrim players who hate recasting Candlelight or Magelight every minute. If you're a mage who explores dungeons often, this is a must-have. Skip if you want more comprehensive magic overhauls—this is purely a duration tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Choose the 5-minute version for a balanced experience—10 minutes might feel too long for some.
- If you use a mod manager, install via that to keep your load order clean.
- Test the spell duration in a quick save to ensure it works with your other magic mods.
