Version 1.1
Fixed an issue where summoned Gargoyles would find you while sneaking.
- No necromancy, summoning Gargoyles instead She will no longer use necromancy at all. This change will not affect enemy necromancers in any way.
As an alternative to necromancy, she will be able to use the new Gargoyles summoning spell (Level 20 or higher is required). As the player level up, she will be able to summon stronger Gargoyles. She cannot cast the Gargoyle summoning spell if she has garlic in her inventory.
It also prohibits her from learning the Chain Lightning in the higher level and makes her learn the slightly weakened Thunderbolt.
- Don't charge at the enemy When she discovers an enemy, it will prohibit her from charging at it on her own and make her start fighting like any other vanilla followers. This should be especially useful for sneaking play.
- Custom sandbox behavior Originally, she would move around the player in a certain area when the player stopped moving. This mod changes the center of her sandbox area to the position where the behavior started. This will prevent it from getting too close to the player.
- Can be used with beautification mods as is This mod does not make any changes to the "DLC1Serana (FormID: xx002B6C)" which must be changed by the beautification mod. Therefore, there is no need to modify or create a patch with xEdit, and it can be used together.
