Rare Curios - SPID and CID is a lightweight mod that uses SPID and CID to give NPCs a small chance to carry rare arrows, bolts, ingredients, Varla and Welkynd Stones, and lets vendors sell them. It's for Skyrim players who want a subtle loot variety boost without overhauling the economy. With 209 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche but active addition.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tiny chance for loot means it won't break the game's balance (1% on NPCs).
- Vendor chances are generous (25-50%) so you'll actually see the new items in shops.
- Active mod with 209 endorsements and recent update (May 2026).
⚠️ Cons
- Requires SPID and CID dependencies, which might be a hassle if you don't already use them.
- The 1% NPC chance is so low you might never notice it in normal play.
- Only affects arrows, bolts, ingredients, and stones—no other rare items, so it's pretty narrow.
For Skyrim players who want a subtle loot variety boost without overhauling the economy. If you're a completionist who likes finding rare stones or a merchant-focused player, this adds a nice touch. Skip if you want major loot overhauls or don't want to mess with SPID/CID setup.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure SPID and CID are installed and up to date, as this mod relies on them to distribute items.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting other SPID configs.
- Check your load order to ensure this mod loads after any mods that edit NPC or vendor lists.
