Introduction
(Here is a small overhaul mod of my first "Dragonrend" Shout. The original idea for this mod came from a mod that improved the Dragonrend Shout, but my mod is 99% vanilla and it doesn't force the animation in the script, only changes it's animation by adding a new idle "Dragonrend" shout animation
The initial cry of "Dragonrend" only gets the Dragons to land safely when they feel like it, and sometimes they
It keeps flying and flying away so that you don't have time to chase it. Also, this shouting didn't seem to work at all when the dragon kept flying away, but not anymore.
This mod improves the use and effects of the "Dragonrend" shout, while fixing some existing issues with this shout.
(I fixed this effect from my first mod called KS Dragon Overhaul 2 (KSDO2) to make it a standalone mod)
Changes and Fixes 1) In the original effect of "Dragonrend", the dragon would be staggered at the moment it was hit by this shout, but now it has been changed to make this shout look more powerful and the dragon would be paralyzed after being hit by "Dragonrend".
- Next, the dragon takes a while to land and causes the "Dragon King" effect to expire a few moments after it lands. Of course this is also changes and fixes, now the dragon no longer does a slow landing instead it will fall fast, while increasing the "Dragon King" effect bit longer, and increasing the cooldown between shouts to prevent players from spamming this shout quickly (for balancing purposes).
- When Dragon is affected by "Dragonrend" 68% health, there is another additional effect, a chance for it to hit the ground instead of landing quickly, this only works if the dragon is outside the city (the city has enough space to crash land).
- The original "Dragonrend" also seems to have a huge problem, the dragon completely ignores the shouting and keeps flying. Well now it's been fixed and now the dragon no longer does that thing and will continue to ground until the shout effect expires.
- Finally, to address the issue with dragons sometimes they keep flying and fly away (i.e. running away from the fight). I don't know if this question actually solves the problem, but here we are. The "Dragon King" effect is now on the dragon whenever it wants to move away from the fight, and the shout effect will be removed from the dragon when it is out of range of the player, allowing the dragon to return to the player after that.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
