About this mod
A patch to improve Unarmed/Hand to Hand combat to make it have a unique playstyle.
- Permissions and credits
Ever want to have Unarmed/Hand to Hand combat to be viable, fun playstyle? Dissatisfied on how in Vanilla its virtually nonexistent and is a hindrance more than anything? Dont want to make it over the top either? Well look no more. This is but a very simple patch to SPERG to make Hand to Hand combat more of a unique playstyle and its own identity. Leveling up is still the same and its still under "Pickpocket" skill tree with a few changes here and there with the skills. Here is the list of changes below.
I've always loved HtH combat and playing that playstyle in Oblivion. When I played Skyrim trying to use the same said style I find it absolutely lackluster in every since. Other than the Fist of Steel perk you get from heavy armor, there isnt really all much else on the table. Especially when the animations themselves are extremely slow and clunky to the point where it was almost unplayable/unfavorable. For example, the unarmed power attacks is perhaps one of the lowest attacks in the game all the while doing absolutely mediocre damage and the left arm swing is so slow that its actually a detriment to even use it since just swinging with your right arm is faster even in succession. So why even offer an almost unusable playstyle when it provides no benefits over other weapons? That is when I wanted to make a change. I've looked through a lot of unarmed mods and a good portion of them in my opinion were either over bloated or over the top. And thats when I decided I wanted to make a change myself, to create one. This is the first mod I've ever done and I've learned what I can by essentially reverse engineering SPERG since I didnt have the internet for weeks on end. I would like to sometime in the future to perhaps make this a stand alone mod for Vanilla and such but right now I am pretty satisfied with the results and I want to continue fine tuning to make it even better.

NOTES
The esp filename is apparently FOTNSTest and I forgot the change the name of it. It still works as attended from my end but I thought I should give a little heads up incase people might get a little confused.
If you find any errors, bugs, or have any opinions, please feel free to let me know. Other than that, if you enjoyed this mod, feel free to give an endorsement and spread it. I plan on expanding this mod in the future so check back in every now and then for changes!

== Boxer ==
Unarmed attacks are 25% faster and unarmed power attacks cost 20% less.
(for additional context, I've also increase the left arm swing by 10% in addition to make it look and play a lot more smoothly in order to match the right swings)
== Hard Hitter ==
Unarmed attacks has 25% armor penetration, power attacks while unarmed deals 50% bonus damage, and couching unarmed attacks has a 50% chance to stagger opponents.
== Opportunist ==
Unarmed attacks has a 40% chance to stagger opponents using power attacks.
== Hokuto Shinken ==
Literally the same as Cheap Shot for now. Just a name change for personal preference. Although more will be added to this skill in the future.

------------Special Thanks----------
I want to give a special thank to seorin for making the mod that I learned off of and without him, I most likely wouldnt have made this.
And of course, you, Dragonborn.
