It doesnt work for me, the staff is still s#*!, takes forever to kill a single lvl 20 dragon, imagine a legendary dragon Why it doesnt work, the ridicolous amount of damage appears and the long description too but it doesnt do the damage,whyyyyyy
Bit of a necro, but..... Dragons still have a pool of Magicka they rely on to shout. Before the Staff depletes HP, it must run through its pool of Magicka first. That is what the Staff of Magnus does, after all.
Sorry. Tried it and uninstalled it immediately afterwards. The forced immobility, the long casting time and the blinding visual effects don't make up for the increased power - they totally ruin this conceptually great mod. I can do more damage per second by spamming thunderbolts.
I suggest you make a non-immobilizing version without the dumb casting animation, and this mod might get a bit more popular.
I agree that the mod is what it says it is. Took down a dragon in like 5 seconds lol. For game balance I think I will keep it put away most of the time, but it looks handy for when all the dragons start popping up after the start of Dragonborn. Sometimes I really really want to just get to my quest location and don't feel like stopping for a dragon battle.
It looks like you should install this before going through Labyrinthian to properly get the ring (I installed afterwards so had to console it in) , and disable the mod and reload the game before trying to get through the force field around the college. The force field is looking for the original staff, not this one.
Well visually maybe. The beam animation is really cool. But this weapon becomes much less effective on shock resistant enemies such as the Storm Atronach.

u can't penetrate the magic barrier in college's entrance
i recommend you to download this after finishing the quest
I wanted to say that I LOVE your mod! Now the staff is as it should be!
