Adds a configurable hotkey via MCM which allows the player to unequip items from their hands, left to right, one at a time. Very useful for hotkey unequipping spells, especially for spellblade builds.

In vanilla Skyrim, pressing a hotkey for a favorited item will only unequip it if it's a weapon in your right hand. This mod is a small quality of life tweak which will allow you to unequip anything from your hands with the press of a configurable button. One press will unequip whatever is in your left hand. When your left hand is empty, pressing the hotkey will unequip whatever is in your right hand.

FAQ

-Why would I need this mod?
Let's suppose you're playing a spellblade build. Unless you are using certain mods, you cannot block with your weapon whilst wielding a spell. Pressing the hotkey once will unequip the spell from your left hand, allowing for quick alternations between spellcasting and blocking. There are other uses too, such as playing a character who mixes magic with unarmed combat; you'll be able to unequip spells from both hands, so you can get back to punching.

-Those are extremely niche examples. Is this useful outside of that?
Yeah, it's useful as a small quality of life tweak that allows you to save yourself the time of opening a menu if you wanna unequip a spell for any reason.

-Can I see this mod in action before I download it?
Yeah, there's a video showcase in the video tab, which shows both the functionality of the mod and practical usage of the mod.

-What happens if I use the hotkey with a two handed weapon or bow?
It will unequip the whole weapon, not just half. ;)

-What armor is that in the screenshot and video?
Armor of Intrigue Updated

-Why did you make this mod?
I'm developing a spell package, and there are some spells I have made which work the best in a spellblade build. One such example (Blink) is showcased in the video on this mod page. I made myself a non-MCM version of this mod a while ago, so I could have fun as a spellblade, and I've just now decided to release it as an MCM-utilizing mod to make it inclusive for everyone.

-I'm still getting the spell-in-hand animation when I sprint after unequipping a spell. Any fix for that?
This mod will fix this small animation bug related to unequipping spells. I recommend you use it if the animation bothers you. If you don't want to use the linked mod, sheathing your weapon will fix the animation bug for the next time your weapon is unsheathed.

-Esl flagged?
