Nope, didn’t touch NPC records at all! Not sure what’s going on, sorry.

hey so, as far as I'm aware I'm not using any other mod that touches on combat but, does this mod reduce the health of enemies to compensate for the changes in ai? it's probably been asked a million times sorry but I just feel like things take less hits to die now

Yes sir

Is this compatible with Ultimate Combat? Thanks for your hard work.

My character is level 170 on Legendary and I do believe the otherwise generic boring fights with bandits etc are more challenging and it actually feels way more immersive.
This mod might be old but still seems to work and I haven't had any issues after a few hours.

@ShammyTheGoat

I suggest you download SkyDie...

Sadly going to have to remove this. It does seem to make enemies have way more health and do way more damage regardless of difficulty. Plus the fact that enemies have infinite stamina makes your tank and berserker settings extremely tiring to deal with. Would have loved to keep it without the changes to humanoids.

One of the best mods for Skyrim, a must have.

thank you for helping fix this console-shill of a game

Hi Pookie, it could be this mod, but a lot of dragon behavior is dictated by the worldspace you're in. You can also try this add-on mod that forces dragons to land more often - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=430739032
mimiko857 Oct 12, 2020 @ 3:39am 
i got no problems with human npc in combat they are absolute beast and make you nervious but the dragon got problems man
mimiko857 Oct 12, 2020 @ 3:38am 
yo seriously a quick serious question is this normal or this mod causes the dragon to fly away very far from your combat location, i am playing in master difficulty.

seriously the dragon flies away from you like 30 meters + away and eventually returns back to you.

No, just legendary difficulty, I dont know if thats the problem but since I installed it, every enemy feels like has tons of damage and massive health, I have many hours of this game, and I know the mecanics. But the NPCs suddenly scaled up in damage and health by alot and its strange because it never happened to me before, might be because my character isn't as OP as intended for the mod, but might be both, my character isnt OP and the NPCs got stronger as well.
mimiko857 Oct 8, 2020 @ 5:35pm 
also there is this dragon that charges and flies so fast and away from your location like the dragon is in the destroyed fort in whiterun and when it flies it went to the actual city of whiterun and attack npc there its like the dragon is leaving the combat area.
joop  [author] Oct 8, 2020 @ 4:58pm 
Hi Em1lic0! This mod shouldn't touch any damage parameters. NPCs may do more damage because they're attacking more often, however. Do you have any other mods installed?
Σm1lic0 Oct 8, 2020 @ 12:07am 
This mode doesnt make the AI better in combat, they just do tons of absurd damage, lightning mages instakill you and archers are stupidly strong, playing as a hand to hand character is almost impossible, if you have this mod, it is MUST to glitch the game and do the Restoration - Enchanting potion glitch to balance the game.
mimiko857 Oct 5, 2020 @ 12:15am 
I cant believe i cant kill the alikr leader if this mod is activated xD so very hard
Delcattnip Jul 11, 2019 @ 5:46am 
i fixed the problem kinda i had only this mod and installed after this combat realism then i worked better then before
joop  [author] Jul 10, 2019 @ 2:31pm 
I have no way of confirming this, but from my experience this sounds like a Vanilla glitch. When too many AI processes are running at once, NPCs tend to stand around/not fight back/not fight until attacked first. This mod doesn't address these issues - it only makes changes if the AI is actually behaving combat processes to begin with.
Delcattnip Jul 10, 2019 @ 5:32am 
No i don't this was the only mod i used so far.
joop  [author] Jul 8, 2019 @ 7:37pm 
Hi Cynthia, are you running any other companion or AI mods?
Delcattnip Jul 7, 2019 @ 11:22am 
sorry but this mod is not playable... it turns all followers into moles they stand 1 feet away from an enemy and they dont see them until they get attacked sadly have to delete the mod
MaximusUKR Jun 2, 2019 @ 12:37am

Kindre Feb 2, 2019 @ 5:27am

This is great.. hag ravens and spriggans are stillt he same becasue they don't block...

lol but if you are fighting 5-6 druagar and think you will just hack them to death without them remembering to block and counter strike,,,,

lol i definitly notice the change.. good job on this mod.. The Paladins guild mod works well with this
NihilRetnar Jun 23, 2018 @ 12:12pm 
I want this so bad, but my intelligence is the only thing keeping me alive in legendary difficulty xD
IICABOOMII May 26, 2018 @ 6:17pm

Marshman220 May 1, 2018 @ 1:25pm 
if only this was on Special Edition. I used this for Oldrim but I'd rather have what this mod offer other than Deadly Combat or other mods alike.
Jsamue Apr 25, 2018 @ 1:24am 
Because every time i lower the difficulty it scrolls all the way back over.
Jsamue Apr 25, 2018 @ 1:23am 
Does this lock the difficulty into legendary?
LateralusXs Mar 5, 2018 @ 8:48am 
I had this MOD on console and loved it, very highly recomended.
PhantomSoldier Feb 14, 2018 @ 9:51pm

Mercenary King Feb 10, 2018 @ 9:55am

joop  [author] Jan 31, 2017 @ 9:17am 
This file is for Skyrim, not Skyrim SE. I've uploaded a Skyrim SE compatiable version on Bethesda.net if you'd like to use it.
Hekudan Jan 28, 2017 @ 6:36pm

doomie Jan 7, 2017 @ 5:50am 
your skins were pretty dope :P
Astaroth Dec 28, 2016 @ 4:25pm 
still work with duel combat realist 8? I've found that some enemies try to run away sometimes (specially when they have medium or low life) or just stay still (well this just happen 1 time and i was hitting him so maybe it wasn't a bug)
Vsolid Dec 25, 2016 @ 5:50pm 
Hopefully this plays nice with my large collection of mods I got going.
