LE Stealth/assassin changes

[DeadxPixels]

1- The top perk for Stealth, change the invisibility to last about 5-10 seconds, instead of 1 second.

 

2- Bow headshots = 1hit kill.

 

3- Nightingale bonus 'Agent of Stealth' to be an active effect.

 

4- Different stealth execution animations, example- when the target is sitting/busy, you slice their neck but when they're standing or walking the animation could be a neck slice or a back stab/ front stab.

And a sleeping target stealth execution, cover their mouth+ stab in chest perhaps?

 

5- Silent special attacks while sneaking. (Why is my character yelling out? And why doesn't anyone around hear me? )

 

6- Unrelated to stealth, but dual wielding to show both weapon scabbards on either hip.

 

 

Additions? Criticism?

1. It could be a little longer, still useful as is. I turn and run then hit the sneak when I got a bit of distance, then roll roll roll around to a safe dark place. Then sneak back while there looking for you and pick em off one by one. I've used it to bait enemies, sneak in front of them(with a fair distance)stand up and then quickly duck again, and roll of to another location. They'll go look where you just were, giving you an opportunity to sneak by/and/or backstab.

 

4. I'd second the more animations.

I love sneaking through a place and slitting throat after throat. More animations would definitely be a great addition.

I don't think I've ever gotten one when they are sitting.

A double power attack cut scene would be nice, making it extremely gruesome.

 

5. I think the same thing, maybe when sneaking all attacks are silent.

1- That's what I do too occasionally, and it is useful as it is for what it does. Getting seen, then sneaking does make them look around for you, so maybe fixing the sneak cursor to show that they can't see you anymore.

(er, what I mean is when I'm walking, get seen, and enter sneak mode the cursor still shows that I'm seen/visible, but they can walk right past me)

 

4- We can't perform an execution when an npc is busy or sitting, so a mod to add at least a sitting one : throat slash : would be good.

 

5- I've not really noticed attack sounds other than the roar when you special attack.. o.O

1. Yes Shadow warrior definitely needs 3-5 seconds of stealth as it does NOT do what it says in the perk description.

2. Should be a damage bonus not one hit kill, otherwise you could one hit dragons with shadow warrior and a bow...

3. Active as in always on? I'd like there to be a 5 minute cool down rather than a 1 day cool down.

2- Well, enemies such as dragons, mammoths, giants, etc have tougher skulls don't you think?

3- I mean so when you're in darkness, sneaking, you are invisible. Go near light, you become visible, but still sneaking unless seen. This is how I interpreted the description of the effect anyway..

 

Samutz! You're my hero :D

If you don't mind me asking; how do you do things like this? I would make mods/ small changes like these if I knew how.. but I don't even know where to start. I suppose I should look for Oblivion mod tutorials..
