Combat remastered: Greatest combat mod overhaul. My review

[stackofbeef]

First, sorry for my english.

 

So this morning, i tried a new combat mod named {Combat Remastered}.
http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/24377/?tab=1&navtag=%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D24377%26preview%3D&pUp=1

The creator of this mod needs support. He has only 60 endorsement, but don't let this low rating turn you away. I have spent a lot of time looking for a realistic, fun with diversity AI wise and balanced around adept level type of mod and i finally found it. Plus, it contains a lot more than i expected. For those who tried requiem, you will feel it with one difference. You don't lose stamina while moving, but you lose enough stam already so it does not matter. My suggestion: Don't take a race overhaul mod that will give you a starter stats bonus, it will only ruin the initial difficulty.

Combat remastered is a mix of Skyre, deadly combat and ace. With cool new balanced perk trees(You don't have to nerf yourself) better enemy AI in a certain way, but they don't parry enough. Try it with AI enchanced, ASIS and Duel combat.

first impression and a small review:


-Stamina: The lower your stamina is, the slower your melee attack speed, movement speed just like in requiem overhaul.
.
If you spam, you will just allow your enemies to reach you and you won't be fast enough to kill them or to dodge, but it's not too rough since you can regen your stamina while moving, but not while blocking. At the same time, it's not a good idea to spam just defend attempt cuz when ever you parry, you lose stamina and your stamina is crucial.

Just like me, are you not tired of how easy the archery part of skyrim is? With how easy it was, it's even more sad that we can't port enemies from fallout into our skyrim just to make it more interesting.
With this mod, archery is pretty hard to master and to exploit.

-Archery

When you release an arrow, you lose a good junk of your stamina pool. Try and fight in melee as an archer and you will regret it. Try to exploit the npc's biggest weakness; yes, the borders. It won't work since you eventually get slower. Finally, take as much perks as you need in your archery perks in order to become a real elite archer instead of an half ass or 0 perk archer that can still kill anything in the game with 1000 arrows.

He also covered up magic and some other perk tree's with optional files.

AI:
The AI needs some improvement, but they use magic even if they're not mages. I saw a bandit using stone skin just to kill a traveler or adventurer. Mind you, i turned off ASIS first. I was fighting an hunter. Guess what, he used sprint to close the gap. I have never seen an other human sprinting. Some enemies will spawn with 2 weapons. You know what that i means? Dual stance. They don't just stand in one place in melee stance, they move around too and if they're a lot, they will try to surround you.(Not flanking)

The cons: They don't parry often so you should look for an AI mod like the one from ERSO or any other to make them work on that part.
