📋 About This Mod
With the release of new combat mods that make changes to the way power attacks work, there is a need to tweak the one-handed and two-handed perk trees from the excellent Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim mod by EnaiSiaion related to directional power attacks.
All credits to them for the amazing work! There's no way I'd consider removing it from my game... so I had to make some modifications in order to have them.
There are a few alternatives to this mod, feel free to check them out!
Ordinator directional perks for Skysa and AMR by dTry by dTry
The only caveat would be that this one replaces the entire ordinator esp, which could potentially cause some issues with updates or other mods... So I decided to make my own version as an esp (flagged esl) that only modifies few records from Ordinator.
Ordinator Patch for Skysa - MCO - Combo Perks by PJustinD
Another approach based on Scrambled Bugs' "Perk Entry Points: Apply Multiple Spells" which I wanted to stay away from, not fully having analysed the effect it would have on other perks from Ordinator or other mods in my modlist (it could have only a minor impact/no impact at all, I just have not checked)
Scrambled Bugs could be a GREAT improvement on how perks work however!!! (see sticky post)
I made a few versions:
-
[]a full rework, changing perk effects and replacing some with new ones and capitalizing on attack combos where suitable
[
]a simple bypass (with minor tweaking of a couple perks), mainly reliant on hiding the perks from the perk trees - one overpowered version with directional power attacks applying to all power attacks
MAIN VERSION
This version is a full rework of both the One-Handed and Two-Handed perks. This version tries not changing the perk tree much, instead altering the perks themselves for more balance, and a focus on power attack combos. Of course, since I replaced some perks with new ones, the tree was slighlty altered.
Below are the changes.
Master Combat Spells
Skyrim has a big issue when it comes to perk effects (Combat Spells): only one combat spell can be applied for any one hit. That means that if you have 2 perks that apply combat spells on the same hit, only one of them would actually be applied. This is an issue that Scrambled Bugs' "Perk Entry Points: Apply Multiple Spells" tweak fixes, but I decided not to have that as a dependency.
So, being stuck with the base system from skyrim I decided it would be easier to change how Ordinator applies combat spells (a series of complex intertwined combat spells covering all interactions between different perk effects) and create "Master Combat Spells".
For every melee weapon type, the different intertwined C

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid endorsement count (992) shows the community trusts this patch
- Fills a real gap for players mixing Ordinator with modern combat overhauls
- Last updated in 2023, so it's recent enough for current mod setups
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers melee perks, so magic and stealth perks remain untouched
- Requires Ordinator and a compatible combat mod, so it's not a standalone fix
For Skyrim players who love Ordinator's perk tree but want to use ADXP/MCO or SkySA without breaking melee combat. Skip if you stick to vanilla combat or don't use Ordinator.

- Make sure Ordinator is installed and loaded before this patch in your mod manager
