Hello! I’ve been looking for mods that help beef up a playthrough centered around a Conjuration mage with an interest in studying the planes of Oblivion, but I’ve been struggling to think of the right way to search for them. If I look up “Conjuration,” “Summoner,” or “Sorcerer” I’ll mostly just get spell mods, and often specifically for necromancers rather than anything related to Daedra. If I look up “Daedric” or “Daedra,” I’ll mostly find things related to either Daedric Armor, the destruction of Daedra, or the worship of Daedra, when the kind of character I want to run has a more scholarly interest in the subject.
Now, spell mods are perfectly fine, of course. I’ve naturally installed quite a few that I intend to try out. Apocalypse, Odin, Arcanum, Flames of Coldharbor, Necrom, Dead and Daedric Guardians, an absolute slew of different Mihail mods that add both world encounters and summon spells. But I can’t help but feel like I might be missing something because all the keywords I can think of related to what I’m going for tend to be specialized in different directions.
So, I figured I’d go ahead and ask in order to try to see if there’s anything hidden in that weird information gap I’ve been struggling with. What are some good quest mods to pair with a Daedric conjurer playthrough? Armor sets? World additions? Player homes? Basically anything that gives a Conjurer something to do with all those spells, or something else to roleplay with in addition to spells. What do you all use for these kinds of playthroughs, or what would you use if you decided to start one?
I had a necro playthrough but not too focussed on daedra or Oblivion. I had this house mod tracked for a long time, you could give it a shot (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/41257).
I remember seeing some vigilants fighting a xivilai in the wild, probably a feature of enhanced encounters mod, you could look into that and maybe increase the spawn chance.
With a quick search found this: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/4593 It has been last updated in 2016 so be aware. Mihail and 4thunknown have some daedra creature mods you could look into (goat-monster and daedroth to name a few). As for armour there is a large quantity you can choose from (keywords: daedra, molag, necromancer)
