Ryugi Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 It may or may not be "lore-friendly" but I find myself really wishing I had something more to add to my weapons as a big Two-handed weapon wielder. I'm talking about blades of energy being thrown from your sword, streaking across the ground or striking a dragon in the air, stabbing your blade into the ground and causing a burst of energy to fly from your body to damage nearby foes, or even creating a "Healing Circle" type of effect around you to heal you or your companions. All of these would cost Stamina like a Power Attack, but also draining some Magicka as well. They could be toggled like a daily power or shout, and take up that slot. I feel I get shafted at times for being a user of two-handed swords. I don't get more defensive power, or the benefit of magical powers while I'm fighting other than those provided to me by the enchantments I may have. I can't even use the attack-speed dragon shout with an enchanted weapon. In the end, I lose out on more defensive power, and deal a little more damage, but have to unequip my weapons (and run around like a pansy) to heal, or carry around a hefty supply of healing potions. I feel adding a mod like this would give wielders of two-handed weapons something more to their gameplay options while still focusing on dealing damage with large weapons. Plus, it would be fun. So, I ask you guys, are there mods out there that already add this kind of "spell" or functionality into the game? Or, are there any in the works?

imperistan Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 There is somewhat of a precedent for this sort of thing in the Redguard's history. It was essentially "sword magic" that destroyed their homeland. (they used a sword to split the atom or some such) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryugi Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 At least it's something... I wonder if we could get Phendrix or someone to make a few sword-based spells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryugi Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 So, apparently someone by the name of Elysees2 on Youtube has made a few spells like this. I downloaded the two I liked and added them, and what a blast they are to use. It's completely changed how I play my character, and I love it. I'd love to see more like this too.
