The powerful marksman mod

Post » Fri Mar 18, 2011 1:13 pm

Hey,
Does anyone have any idea what this mod is?
They mention in a lot of Skyrim interviews that after playing a certain Oblivion mod, they got inspiration for how to make markmanship in Skyrim.
The mod made archery extremely powerful and more deadly per shot.

Thanks if you can help.

I have no idea, not having read any articles, to begin with.

However, it could be they mean Duke Patrick's Combat Archery. Alternatively, FCOM Archery... though that might be less likely. Or, indeed, something I'm not familiar with, or have forgotten. :D

I think http://tesalliance.org/forums/index.php?/files/file/514-duke-patricks-combat-archery/ is the most likely candidate.

Although there is other mods that increase damage, the one's I have seen (including those linked above) only do so slightly and make little attempt at balance. DP's mod, on the other hand, increases damage dramatically (and is adjustable) as well as adding balancing features like longer draw-time (as mentioned for Skyrim), fatigue drain whilst drawing (this is related to the bow damage), stumbling chance when moving backwards, quiver limit etc.

edit. arghh :ninja:

Indeed. First thing I thought of when I read that article was Duke Patrick's Combat Archery as well as it's the only mod I know of that adds longer bow draw times, Weapon Swagger and a chance of falling down on Havoked objects if running backwards. Definitely my favorite Archery overhaul by far.
