About this mod

Necro Archer adds new perks into the conjuration skill tree that improve upon the necromancer archer experience. The original core perk makes it so that the bound arrow if shot at a corpse will reanimate the corpse. The second perk makes it so that any enemies killed with a bound bow/arrow will reanimate upon death automatically.

This is a simple mod that adds new perks "Necro-Archer" and "Cursed Arrows" into the conjuration perk tree. The Necro-Archer perk allows bound arrows that are shot at a corpse to reanimate the corpse as an undead minion. The Cursed Arrows perk makes it that when killing an enemy with a bound bow/arrow it will automatically reanimate their corpse.

About:
Originally this mod was intended for my own use as it was made to just change the bound arrow so that it would reanimate the corpses it was shot at, although I decided to flesh it out and make it a perk, so it could be optional for the player and also to allow a sense of progression required in the conjuration tree before it could be used. The new Cursed Arrows perk was somewhat developed after initial release, although was left unfinished as I was burnt out on Skyrim and never got around to finishing and releasing it. Until now!

Perk Requirements:
Conjuration Perk Tree
Necro-Archer
  • Requires 50 points in Conjuration 
  • Previous perk: Soul Stealer (Vanilla)

Cursed Arrows
  • Requires 60 points in Conjuration
  • Previous perk: Necro-Archer

Minor Changes:
  • Necro-Archer perk requirement increased from 40 to 50
-   This was changed as the conjuration skill requirement before Bound Bow becomes available for purchase is a level of 50 or higher.
-   While there are alternative ways of gaining the Bound Bow spell tome earlier, the change allows the perks to correlate to a characters progression a bit better.









Compatibility:
This mod should be compatible with most if not all mods that do not affect the conjuration skill tree.

Compatibility patches will need to be made for mods that alters the conjuration perk tree.
(Please post or message if there is a specific perk overhaul mod that you want this to be compatible with).

Current perk tree overhaul patches:
These patches are found within the files page.

Small bugs:
You may notice that if you shoot a corpse that is far away, it may not reanimate it, all you need to do is move a bit closer. I guess it doesn't recognise that its got hit by a bound arrow.
