📋 About This Mod

Smarter Conjuration Minions fixes a bug where reanimated corpses and conjured summons fail to detect enemies, causing them to idle or stop fighting. With 472 endorsements and 224,982 downloads, this lightweight gameplay fix is essential for Skyrim players who rely on necromancy or conjuration builds.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a frustrating bug that breaks conjuration builds
- High download count (224,982) shows it's widely used and trusted
- Simple, focused fix—no bloat, just solves the problem
⚠️ Cons
- Only fixes enemy detection—doesn't improve minion AI beyond that
- May conflict with other mods that alter summon or reanimate behavior
For Skyrim players who use conjuration or necromancy and are tired of their minions standing around during combat. If you've ever watched a zombie just stare at a dragon, this is for you. Skip if you don't use summons or want broader AI improvements.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Load this mod after other gameplay overhauls to ensure the fix applies
- Test with a reanimated corpse in a dungeon to see the difference immediately
- If you use mods that change summon AI, check for compatibility patches
