JainaProudmoore Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) There's a lot of weapon mods on the Nexus for Skyrim, except I noticed a lack of staves! I like to play casters most of the time and while daggers, maces and swords can be good for a backup, I always have preferred a staff of some type. Mostly there's just re-textures, besides the excellent mod "Staves of Skyrim" (I like the versatility of it), but I personally feel they all seem very similar. I think maybe another mod that adds a large variety of awesome-looking staves for all type of casters would be great. Especially priests. I've been wanting to play an Inquisitor of sorts, or an aggressive, offensive (not to mention fanatical) priest and I imagine them using some type of staff. One with the "cross" design would be amazing (seen here from WoW http://wowroleplaygear.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/priest-invincible1.jpg) but made to fit with Skyrim's aesthetics and style. There could also be staves for necromancers, made out of bones and flesh. For elementalists, staves that fit the elements. Anything is possible. Thanks for reading! :smile: Edited July 25, 2013 by JainaProudmoore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orrila Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) I am working on Staves of Skyrim with the author, and such things are soon to come. I am working with him for new features, possibly also quaterstaffs (to bash people with) and other things. I am not mentioning any absolutes, but know that something like this may be coming in the future (near or far). We may also do a better overhaul of the stave system to make it more balance and worth using staves. Possibly, I will also add new and better stave animations. I MAY make new stave models if I have time. The author is away at the moment, and I cant upload till he is back, but thanks for the ideas.

I love "Staves of Skyrim" but I long for more variety among the staves. Staves for basic mages are always good, but there needs to be ones aimed more at different magic-users, like Necromancers, Elemental Mages (Fire, Frost and Lighting are good but you could expand it for things like, Water, Earth, Air, etc.) and Healers/Priests. Most of the staves in "Staves of Skyrim" are good for your everyday mage, but if it were expanded beyond that, that would be amazing. :) The healer/priest-type staves are definitely needed because I can't find a staff out there that has that cross-symbol upon them (like the picture). Different colors and styles representing each of the 9 Divines would be great too, and not to mention clever. Whatever the case is, I'm definitely looking forward to further updates of the mod! :) Dwemerverse has about 30 dwemer staves. :smile:I've taken a look at the mod and it looks great. Would you happen to have any further pictures of the staves that're included? The few I've seen look nice but definitely are specific to the Dwemer style (and fit the Dwarven Mage armor mod very well!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orrila Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Well, thanks Jaina. The idea of adding staves such as for different magic types is a very nice and interesting idea. In SoS currently the idea (more or less) is that there is 1 stave for each weapon type (glass, dragon, daedric etc), but your necromancer idea etc is good, and we shall certainly see about trying to make those. Lots is to come, but thanks for your input... youll just have to wait and see until we are done :D THanks again-Orrila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
