I hate all that "skittering" during combat?
I'm looking for a way to modify movements speed while attacking or casting, similar to the way mods like Deadly Combat do. I would like to make characters still if casting or attacking.
Does anyone know how to achieve that?
I'm fine with creation kit btw. I've made a few simple mods for myself!
I believe the only way to accomplish this is to modify the speedmult av during an attack/cast animation. The best, and perhaps only, way to do that is through modding. There are no mods currently available for Skyrim for this purpose, so you're going to have to figure it out for yourself.
Keep in mind, if you set speedmult to 0 when attacking, you may eliminate the ability to perform charging attacks.
If you need assistance determining how to achieve something like this through modding, I recommend asking around one of the Skyrim modding communities, Nexus being one of the most active and well-respected.
In archery I picked the perk causing enemies to move slower while aiming. With melee I use built up stamina to do power attacks in which are shown in slow motion. Not sure if that's the answer your looking for.
TL;DR Ice damage and slow potions can reduce enemy speed, making you faster in comparison
An alternative answer to get a speed advantage on your enemies is to use the "Slow" poison on them. This will reduce their movement speed by 50%
If you need it, here is a list of the ingredients that can be used:
An alternative to slow is ice damage. You can either use ice spells or a weapon enchanted with ice damage.

There's a console command/cheat that can change the attack speed of your character. If you press ` it will open the console, then type in 'player.setav weaponspeedmult 2'. 1 is normal speed.
