I'm not good at English and English not my native language. So I'm sorry if any user that's not understand my description mod is all about.



This is my first small overhaul mod for the “Dragonrend” shout. I got the idea for this mod from another mod called “Improved Dragonrend Shout”. The difference is my mod does not force animations through scripts, but rather changes the idle animation for the Dragonrend shout.

The main problem with the vanilla shout is how unimpactful and unreliable it is. At times the shout would hit the dragon, but it would continue flying anyway, sometimes even fleeing all together. When the shout does work, you don’t get the sense that you just “rend” a dragon from the skies. It just slowly lands like normal.

This mod aims to improve the usability and effects of the Dragonrend shout while at the same time fixing some of the above mentioned issues by doing the following change below.


1) The vanilla shout simply causes the dragon to be staggered when it gets hit by Dragonrend. Now it will instead be crippled when hit.

2) When Dragonrend is used on a dragon, the effect timer immediately starts counting down which is terrible with how slowly the dragon currently lands. This has been changed by increasing the speed of the landing and the duration of the “rend” effect. For balance purposes, the cooldown on the Dragonrend shout has been increased.

3) A new effect has been added to the shout. If a dragon is below 68% health when shouted at, then there’s a chance it will immediately crash down to the ground.

4) The vanilla shout tends to just not work causing the dragon to start flying again even though the effect is still on the dragon. This has been fixed to provide a more consistent experience.

5) Lastly, I have tried to fix the issue where a dragon would keep on flying after being hit (occasionally completely fleeing the battle). Now, when a dragon attempts to flee away with the “rend” timer still ticking, the effect will be dispelled as the dragon leaves the player’s combat area hopefully causing it to turn back and continue fighting.
