Mods to make the game group friendly?

[NocturnalOutcast]

Whats up people? So, I enjoy my companion mods...a lot. Vilja, Ceri, Arissa, Hoth, y'know, the ones that bring unique flavor into the game.

 

Most playthroughs I only take one companion with me at a time, except for quest that require a specific follower, such as Serana, then they tag along with me and my normal travaling buddy for that play through. Anyways, I'd love to make a group experience, so the game feels more like a group of heroes uniting together to help dova with his quest, rather then him and his sidekick bashing down everything.

 

In other words, I want to mod out the game so that dova cannot do it alone, or just with one follower, but you need to have a well balanced team to help you through your journey.

 

I've tried things like mods that increase enemy spawns, increase their health, and stuff, but with a group of 4 followers it still feels like i can afk and let them autopilot the dungeon. So no

 

Another issue I've ran into is constantly having to point them where to stand to get them out of my way when I get blocked in, which REALLY gets annoying, and kills immersion.

 

Team I have in mind.

 

Tank - My character

Healer - Ceri

Support - Vilja

Rogue - Arissa

DPS - Inigo or Hoth, or a nice mage follower?

Followers as Companions (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/62863/?) makes followers walk beside you rather than behind you.

Move it Dammit (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/4020/?) increases the distance companions walk if you bump into them, this might help if they get in your way.

 

Setting the in-game difficulty to 'legendary' may help.

Revenge of the Enemies 2016 (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40491/?) supposedly makes enemies a lot stronger.

If you got some space left, you could take a look at Skyrim Immersive Creatures. (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24913/?) It adds a bunch of new creatures to Skyrim not only helping with diversity, but also makes the game harder.

Duel - Combat Realism (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/2700/?) also makes combat harder.

 

A last suggestion; if you're looking for more followers, Interesting NPCs (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/8429/?) adds a bunch of followers, a few of them are 'super followers' aka. followers with dialogue for a lot of locations and quests. It's a huge mod though, but it's worth it.

 

EDIT: I recommend you to look for a replacement for Cerwiden though. She's a great follower, but she hasn't been updated for a very long time (She's pre-Dawnguard) so she could cause some problems.

Thanks for the suggestions!

 

Definitely gonna experiment around with some of these to make dungeons feel more like raids then solo experiences.
