A mod to make fights in Skyrim SE more visceral

Wildcat – Combat of Skyrim is a free mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition. The unofficial mod’s purpose is to completely overhaul the combat mechanics in the game, resulting in more dangerous and visceral fights. It increases the immersion and affects the difficulty of challenges in the game.

Wildcat – Combat of Skyrim considerably impacts the game by enhancing enemy AI and altering how players sustain damage. Despite its title, the mod is not compatible with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, only the special edition.

Injuries and stamina

The mod introduces a sophisticated new system of mechanics for stamina and injuries during battle. All combatants (both the player character and NPCs) will spend stamina points while performing actions such as attacking or drawing their bows, and those who urn out will slow down. Meanwhile, injuries to different parts of the body have different effects.

A customizable mod

It is possible to customize the mod to suit personal tastes and your playing style. For example, you can alter the “lethality” factor during combat by choosing from six different skill levels. The lowest skill level is Novice, while the highest is Legendary. The higher the skill level, the more damage that the player can give and sustain.

A wide range of minor details

Wildcat is a sophisticated mod that showcases a range of minor details. For example, fighters move sideways or backward more slowly while wielding bows, which is a nice touch that enhances the realism. You’ll notice other small details like this throughout the mod.

For players seeking a challenge

The ideal audience for Wildcat is players who have completed Skyrim Special Edition and want to take on an extra challenge. The customizable options will particularly appeal to players who enjoy extra twists.
