✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 196 endorsements and over 9,000 downloads.
- ESL-flagged so it won't eat your load order slots.
- Two variants (brown and polar) give you options.
⚠️ Cons
- Only edits two vanilla records (BearLay, BearSwimRoot) but adds NPCs to Angi's Camp, which could conflict with mods that overhaul that area.
- Mount is a bear, not a horse, so it may not work with all horse-related mods despite the compatibility note.
- Last updated in January 2023, so it might not be actively maintained for the latest Skyrim versions.
For Skyrim players who want a unique, armored bear mount and a Block trainer in one package. If you're a completionist or roleplayer looking for a distinctive travel companion, this is for you. Skip if you're not interested in creature mounts or if you heavily mod Angi's Camp.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is ESL-flagged, you can safely add it to your load order without worrying about the 255 plugin limit.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install; no manual file placement needed.
- The mount costs 2000 gold, so save up before heading to Angi's Camp.
