Complete Snow Elf Race

Recommended Posts

I have found three different mods I like that add a snow elf race, but each add different things that would work well in conjunction with each other, and one their own each mod seems lacking.

The mods are:

Snow Elf Race - The True Falmer

Snow Elf Overhaul

Playable Dawnguard Snow Elf Race

 

I believe

SEO

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/36777/?

has the best look for the race, as well as needed fixes for the Snow Elves we encounter in the Dawnguard questline (getting ride of Altmer weapons etc.)

 

Abilities:

25 Bonus Magicka

75% Frost Resistance

25% Flame Weakness

A form of frost cloak

 

 

 

PDSER

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/21936/?

adds Frostbite as an initial spell, and has (in my opinion) the best skill bonuses, as it is the most mage oriented.

 

Abilities:

65% Frost Resistance

25% Flame Weakness

A form of frost cloak that also grants invulnerability

 

 

 

SER - TTF

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/54059/?

This mod expands the crafting capabilities of the Snow Elf, including Robes and a new Ivory Ingot (which I think is perfect for expanding the lore of the race)

 

Abilities:

50% Frost Resistance

what I believe to be the original Frost Cloak ability

 

 

 

My ideal mod would have the aesthetic of SEO, the skill preset of PDSER, the crafting of SER-TTF and some middle ground for abilities (I like the 75/25 division, and I think if the frost cloak is only one a day it ought to grant invulnerability as well. I would also prefer the 25 extra magicka).

 

I believe this sort of mod would create a more fully-drawn race, and in conjunction with snow elf follower mods can make the Snow Elf character a little more interesting, and make it have a greater impact on the player.

 

Anyways, I haven't any idea how to make this a reality, but I do have an idea of balance and lore, if anyone with the technical capacities would want to pick this up.

 

Thanks for spending some time of your life reading this!

I think SER-TTF has the most accurate look as it seems the author merely used or built upon the Snow Elf Race added by the Dawnguard expansion. Honestly I am content with SER-TTF, but I've stopped playing my Snow Elf character due to... 'immersion' reasons. :3

 

(What we're badly missing though is a proper Maormer mod. xD)
