Description
Hello fellow mod users and makers.
Today I have for you a brand new set of fully hand crafted original animations based on the Nier game.
Find SKYSA Version here
All 7 attack animations (4 light x 3 power) have been fully adapted to MCO and AMR.
With added bonus of DAR functionality similar to that of my 2B Idle animation mod for all animations including the new Greatsword Idle.
A 1. 5x Attack speed is included via DAR for all attack animations
- Wide grip -
These animations have been made to be accurate in stance and style to the original game.
This includes a wider grip that doesn't match up to the length of some weapon mods.
In optional files I have included a weapon bodyslide for 2B's greatsword
from immyneedscakes Nier Automata Weapon pack
This bodyslide allows you to customize the swords grip via bodyslide to match how you like.
And also the blades length to better resemble the longer blade from the original game

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 568 endorsements and over 18k downloads.
- Brings a fresh, stylish moveset that fits Nier fans perfectly.
- Actively maintained—last updated April 2026.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires a suite of mods (MCO, BFCO, OAR, AMR, SCAR) to work, which can be a hassle to set up.
- Animation mods can conflict with other moveset overhauls if load order isn't managed carefully.
- Niche appeal—only for players who want 2B's specific style, not a general greatsword overhaul.
For Skyrim players who love Nier: Automata and want to channel 2B's graceful yet deadly greatsword combat. If you're already using MCO or BFCO and want a fresh, stylish moveset, this is a must-try. Skip if you prefer vanilla animations or don't want to deal with multiple framework dependencies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have MCO or BFCO installed and set up correctly before adding this moveset.
- Use a mod manager like MO2 to handle the OAR/AMR files and keep your load order clean.
- Test the animations in a low-stakes area first to ensure no conflicts with other combat mods.
