Adds a few things to make archery better in skyrim

Archery of Skyrim -Arrow Crafting and Bashing

This is currently the beginning state- I will be fixing things as time passes. Feel free to let me know what you find or have suggestions!

Archery was getting somewhat dull to me, so I decided to make a few changes.
*Added optional file for just the craftable arrows

I created a mod in 2015 called CEA - Craftable Exploding Arrows. Obviously, it allows you to craft exploding arrows.
I made a few changed to it to make it more balanced and Lore-Friendly and is now available here. 

Crafting 


Normal Arrow Materials: (Small Physical Damage)
  • Steel
  • Dwarven
  • Elven
  • Orcish
  • Nordic
  • Glass
  • Ebony
  • Daedric
  • Dragonbone

Explosive Types:
  • Fire
  • Frost
  • Shock

In order to craft these explosive arrows, you must have the required perk that corresponds to the material type.
You'll need At least 5 of the same arrows and:
  • Fire: 1 Firesalts and 1 Dwarven Oil
  • Frost: 1 Frost Salts and 1 Ice Wraith Teeth
  • Shock: 1 Void Salts and 1 Pearl

Another Variant of arrows can be crafted called Pristine Arrows. 

Superior Arrow Materials: (Nearly Full Physical Damage)

  • Glass
  • Ebony
  • Daedric
  • Dragonbone

You will need an extra perk after each smithing perk that corresponds to these materials to unlock these recipes.
The damage dealt by the explosions are scaled to the player's level dealing higher damage at certain higher levels

Sneak

I added an extra deadly aim perk that takes the sneak multiplier to 6x damage.

Bashing

I've always thought that the bow bashing in Skyrim looked awful. So here is a "recycled" animation that makes bow bashing more awesome! This came from  Nock to Tip by Foster, whose mod is an awesome archery overhaul. (Try it if you haven't).

The animation feature a back-hand spin which looks way batter than a left-hand jab with a bow in hand O.o

I've also added a perk to the Archery skill tree which increase the bow bashing damage by 5x.
It looks OP in text, but its not all that powerful until the Block skill is raised. This also procs with Deadly Bash making it a really fun way to deal some damage!

Bow (Just for fun)

There is also a new craftable bow named "Black Bow" (comes from Dwarven Black Bow of Fate) that I made which is enchantable, and has some fun features like higher damage, quicker draw speed, 2x Stagger chance, an extra 5x Bashing damage, and 3x higher sneak attack damage.

It requires a Dwarven Bow, 3 Ebony Ingots, and a filled black soul gem, frost salts, fire salts, and void salts. (Again, just for fun)

To do:
  • Fix perks (Deadly Bow Bash is selected by default-might remove from skill tree and have higher bow bash damage by default)
  • Expand items (penetrating arrow*)
  • Expand perks (Ignore armor, increase stagger, quicker draw speed) 
  • ?

Mods that would go well with this:
TK Recoil
ABT - Arrows and Bolts Tweaks
Private Selective Quivers 2_4

Arrow Recovery System Overhaul
Ultimate Spinning Arrows
Pretty Combat Animations
IPM - Insane Armory - Archery Bows and Crossbows


List Of my current mods:

CEA - Craftable Exploding Arrows (Messy)
Mannimarco's Necromancer Amulet (Necromancer amulet allows one extra raise zombie)
Unique Artifacts Redone (unique equipable items get new abilities along with vanilla enchantments)(fairly balanced)
