About this mod
Make the wilderness more dangerous! The mod adds mostly ranged bandits to the surface.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
The goal: To make the surface (the wilderness) really challenging and fun to play, even for archers who play with increased movement speed, and other "buffs"; to make the gameplay depend more on player's skills and reflexes than on stats.
For me, fighting with melee NPCs and creatures in Skyrim (on the surface) is too boring. I don't like shooting slow melee arrow sponges. I like quick, dynamic dodge-and-shoot interactions with the enemies, like these:
'Archer's Hell - Bandits' is the only part of this mod series that spawns the vanilla enemies (bandits) on the surface (by adding bandits to the animal leveled lists). Bandits are added to the leveled lists dynamically, in-game. Because of that the mod is compatible with everything. There's no need for patches.
It's safe to install/uninstall whenever you want.
It's fully compatible with OBIS and other enemy overhauls.
The load order doesn't matter.
Bandits with dodgeable ranged attacks are more frequent, than the other bandit types (on the surface):
If you want to have even less animals in the leveled lists (hence, more bandits), check out the 'Archer's Hell: Creature Tweaks' mod from the list below:
