The best mods for Skyrim Special Edition on Xbox One, PS4 and PC - Part 2 by RPG Site Staff, 09 November, 2016 Skyrim Special Edition is ultimately the same old Skyrim under the hood. List of best PS4 mods (self.skyrim) submitted 1 year ago. by dnmt After seeing this post, I realized I've been meaning to do the same with my mod list as I've spent hours upon hours tinkering and sorting through PS4 mods to determine which ones are both bug-free and lore friendly. The official site for Bethesda, publisher of Fallout, DOOM, Dishonored, Skyrim, Wolfenstein, The Elder Scrolls, more. Your source for news, features & community.
Sony has given PlayStation 4 users a. That is precious space you do not want to waste with pointless mods.
With that said, here are five mods you definitely want to use during your Skyrim Special Edition experience on the PS4.Editor’s note: It does take a bit for the mods to load on Skyrim Special Edition for PS4. However, I have yet to experience any game crashes or extended loading times with any of these mods. If you do experience extended loading times, try switching the order of your mods in the interface.
As always, use mods at your own risk. Follow the directions on each mod as some are not compatible with others.
I recommend starting a separate file with mods turned on, if possible.Hate carry weight restrictions? Need some fast coins? Want to make your own weapons without finding resources? This mod is for you. The cheat mod gives you crafting and alchemy resources as well as A LOT of gold. However, looting and selling is such a fun part of the game, we recommend skipping the gold part.
This isn’t The Sims.If you’re a hoarder like me, you’ll want that unlimited space in your pack. Carry weight is annoying; no one has time to deal with that.
Loot and scavenge as much as you want when you equip the Ring Of Increased Carry Weight. Warning: This mod is not compatible with the cheat mod above. It’s one of the other.Forgot something in Whiterun, but don’t want to leave Solitude? The cloud storage mod allows you access your weapons from any inn.
This is for the lazy people who don’t want to fast travel. It’s okay, we’ve been there.Sometimes you need some magic to get you through a quest, but you don’t want to spend time grinding to get your destruction levels up. That’s where scrolls come in.
Don’t buy them! Make them yourself with this mod.SELL! Get that speech up people, you want fair prices for your goods. This mod will have a vendor at every inn, so if you’re running low on supplies you won’t have to fast travel to another town for goods.

Mod: Scroll CraftingI sort of don't understand why this Special Edition mod wasn't in the base game. Who exactly is making these scrolls that you find everywhere - and why can't the main character get in on the scroll-creating action?Bethesda's vanilla Skyrim oversight is fixed by the modding community yet again, adding a new branch to the skill tree and the ability to craft a scroll for any spell. Besides the obvious utility function, this addition also makes it easier to have a pure magic build at earlier levels - even before you have tons of magicka available. Mod: Cooking, Brewing, and Alchemy OverhaulAn expansion to Skyrim's base crafting system, this nifty mod puts cooking pots and alchemy stations in every inn so you don't have to go hunting for them in any given settlement. But that's just the beginning.The main draw of this mod is the brewstation, letting you brew drinks in addition to cooking the standard food options, while the number of food recipes is also bumped up significantly and a few ingredients have been added in as well.If you've already crafted every type of food, try installing this Special Edition mod and keep your craft addiction going strong! Mod: Hardcore Difficulty - No MilkdrinkersIs Skyrim too easy an experience for your walking siege engine of a Dragonborn?
Does destroying enemies in the Special Edition get rote and tired? Not anymore!If you are felling dragons and giants with ease - and the town guards are no match for your Nord killing machine - try out this mod to make things more deadly.The main tweaks you'll find here are that your stamina and magicka will regenerate slower, while enemies will be tougher and block your attacks more often. It's an addition that really increases the stakes. Mod: Extra Carry WeightOne of the most annoying things about these types of open world RPGs (other than de-emphasizing story and actual roleplaying choice) is that you always have more loot than you can conceivably carry back to town to sell or disenchant.That won't be a problem with this very helpful PS4 mod, which gives an extra 2,500 pounds of carry-weight capacity for every point you put in stamina upon leveling up! Your mage will be able to sling a couple of hundred suits of armor over his shoulder and sell 'em all! If you've ever wanted to make more money in Skyrim, this is one of the better ways to do it. Mod: Restore Vanilla SettingsAs many a giddy PS4 fan has learned after going crazy installing new features, uninstalling mods isn't quite the same as it is on the PC version of Skyrim.When you're done playing with all those nifty new mods, you might want to grab this one to scrub it all clean, especially if you went overboard and installed a bunch that don't play nice with each other.This is a life-saving fallback if you're combating broken mods that have unintended consequences, accidentally preventing you from completing main story quests for one reason or another.
