JSFrodo Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Looking for something that will stop Serana (and other mages) from repeatedly hitting me with ice spikes while I'm trying to carve up the bad guys. Don't really know if it's actually doing any damage, but those huge blue spikes are REALLY annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordsguy2010 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Don't get in there way, be aware of your companion/s positions and position yourself accordingly, if being hit by there spikes is such a problem for you. or hell if they themselves are powerful just let them take care of your enemies. it feels like you are a high born lord when you have 3+ companions rush your enemies and butcher them while you casually walk in and loot this chest over here and not get hit at all and just keep on walking without ever having to even draw your noble blade from its sheath. let the men deal with the rabble i say.

chanchan05 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 They're not trying to hit you. You're just in the way. Maybe you know, don't stand in the line of fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havenost Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) If you use Extensible Follower Framework you can remove spells from your followers, and teach them other ones.If you are still using Ultimate Follower Overhaul I remember there was an option to set your followers to be passive until attacked, which could help mitigate some of the annoyance. The last alternative is that you can use Tesedit and edit the ESP file and remove icespike spell from the character. Edit: But yeah I hate the ice spike spell also. It the silliest looking spell in the game cause there is just a just ice spike sticking out of your head... like someone had a giant ice spike like that in there body, they should obviously be dead... it like taking a 20 mm flak cannon round to the head.

JSFrodo Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Have you tried a search for "Friendly Fire"? Yep, but every "friendly fire" mod I've seen seems to be directed at you not hurting your followers and/or your followers (assuming you're using one of the multi-follower mods) not hurting each other. Not sure those involve the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSFrodo Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Don't get in there way, be aware of your companion/s positions and position yourself accordingly... Wow. That's helpful advice. Because when I'm playing a fighter who's directly engaging the enemy, that means the mage follower is likely *behind* me somewhere. This isn't exactly turn-based combat, and even when you play in third person your camera angle generally doesn't give you all that great of a battlefield overlook.

Unfortunately, one of my followers has a custom AI that doesn't work and play well with the various "follower control" mods, so that's not a complete option. May have to follow your theory of some creative editing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeraphimKensai Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 You could build a healing spell or potion or such that removes the arrows/ice spikes from your body. I did such with the mod in my signature and it's pretty easy, just requires a small script. The only caveat is the mod in my signature is made for SSE.
