Free archery mod for Skyrim

Archery Gameplay Overhaul is a free mod for Skyrim that considerably improves and adds to the original archery experience in the game. Features like new animations, reduced draw time, enchanted arrows, among others, make for new gameplay experiences to enjoy. 

Many Skyrim players like to pick enemies off with arrows. Mods like Explosive Arrows make it more fun and add to damage as well. Other mods like Extended Archery Skill Tree focus on giving players a chance to improve their archery skills. If you’re looking for other overhaul mods, you can try Deadly Dragons and Realistic Lighting Overhaul.

Enchanted arrows

In Archery Gameplay Overhaul, you can enchant your arrows into four types: magic, shock, fire, and ice. The damage your enchanted arrows deal depends on your Enchanting Skill. The higher your skill, the more damage you can deal. You can also enchant arrows by using the rare rings: Ring of the Dragon, Ring of the Wispmother, Ring of Aetherius, and the Ring of the Wamasu. 

When you equip a ring, your arrows will automatically become charged by spending magicka. The rings also work on followers. This can make your combat more effective and deadly to your enemies.

Bleeding damage

All arrows, by default, will deal bleeding damage to enemies, which lasts for 30 seconds. The damage increases as you level up in the game, meaning it has percentage damage and not defined hitpoint damage. This is an excellent feature, as it damages even powerful enemies.

Arm fatigue

In the vanilla version, drawing your bow drains your stamina but doesn’t do much else. Archery Gameplay Overhaul mod adds a little shake to the camera. If you go on holding the bow drawn, it will start to shake more. If you keep going, the shake worsens to the point where it’s challenging to aim properly. 

Moreover, at this point, you’ll start to lose your stamina. Your draw time depends on your Archery Skill. This feature gives a level of realism to the game. It’s almost impossible to draw a medieval bow without shaking.

Bullseye

Archery Gameplay Overhaul is a great mod to enhance your character’s archery skills. The added features like arm fatigue and bleeding make the game more realistic. But the takeaway is the enchantment of the arrows. It ensures that the player will have a new kind of gameplay.
