Special Arrows

I'm currently playing though as an archer and am a little peeved at how under-represented special arrows are in the game. Especially no flaming arrows!?!

 

I'd like to see a mod where you can make or modify arrows instead of just the bow. That way you can just carry one bow and choose the different type of effect you want to use by simply equipping the different arrows. The main effects I'd like to see are...

 


  •  
  • Flame Arrows: Glowing red arrow head. These should stick into a target and set them on fire (no explosion), dealing extra damage per second they are alight. It should also be able to light those oil puddles and the bee hives near Riften.
  • Frost Arrows: Glowing blue arrow head. These should stick into a target and freeze them and slow them down for 5 seconds, dealing extra damage per second they are frost affected. They should also be able to douse flames (like torches).
  • Light Arrows: Glowing white arrow head. These should act like normal arrows on all but undead enemies (undead enemies take extra damage for 10 seconds). Their main effect is to emit a bright light to light up areas that are dark.
     

It'd be good if you could buy them from merchants (blacksmiths maybe?) or craft them yourself at a forge or workbench by combining 10 arrows and...

 


  •  
  • Fire Salts = makes 10 Flame Arrows
  • Frost Salts = makes 10 Frost Arrows
  • Glow Dust = makes 10 Light Arrows

 

I have noticed a couple of similar mods already on the nexus, but they seem a little over complicated (one has you combining salts, troll fat and a daedra heart to make a paste, then combining the past with an arrow to get the special arrow - Daedra hearts are bloody hard to find!) or emphasize explosive effects over more subdued effects like I've mentioned. One is especially a flame arrow mod and it doesn't even set oil puddles alight!?!
