📋 About This Mod
Adds expert and master wards that were missing from the vanilla game.
More Wards - Expert and Master adds two new spells to Skyrim's ward system: Superior Ward, a more powerful channeled ward, and Force Cloak, a non-channeling master spell that absorbs spell damage. Spells are obtained through normal progression, with optional patches for Better Wards and magic scaling mods.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fills a real gap in Skyrim's magic system—expert and master wards were missing, and this adds them.
- Force Cloak is a clever twist on wards: no channeling, so you can still fight while shielded.
- Community-tested with 230 endorsements and over 8,000 downloads, so it's proven stable.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- Optional patches are noted as 'still need some testing,' so they might not be fully stable.
- Force Cloak's magnitude is script-handled, so it won't scale with magic mods unless you use the optional patch.
For Skyrim mage players who want to complete their ward arsenal, especially those who prefer non-channeling defensive spells. Also for restoration-focused characters who want a master-level option. Skip if you're not into magic or prefer more combat-oriented spell mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use Better Wards, grab the optional compatibility patch to avoid duplicate spells.
- Force Cloak is a great choice for mage builds that need defense without tying up both hands.
- To get Force Cloak, make sure you've completed the Ritual Restoration quest in the College of Winterhold.
