Oblivion Remastered is an intuitive and engaging game, but it may have quirks or elements that you think could be better. This is common in most games, and that's why the community makes mods, so games can be made even better.

We look at where to start when tackling Oblivion: Remastered.
Posts 2Some of the best Oblivion Remastered mods make the gameplay more efficient, let you wear multiple pieces of jewelry, or fix stutters. These are just a few examples, as the game’s modding community is significantly strong and has made many mods for it, so fans can enjoy it even more.
10 Ring Of Wanderers Rest
Mod Type: Quality Of Life
Close- Mod by antonystevensmith
The Ring of Wanderers Rest mod gives you a piece of jewelry that can summon a sleeping bag. This is a useful ability as many elements in the game require you to sleep, ranging from leveling up your character to progressing further into the stages of vampirism.
You also can’t sleep in beds owned by others, and they aren’t freely available everywhere. If you’d rather not spend money renting a room or spend most of your time in the wilderness, then this mod can come in handy. Simply put on the ring and a sleeping bag will appear for you to rest in. Taking off the ring will make it disappear, waiting for you to need it again.
9 Unlimited Equipment Of Amulets And Rings
Mod Type: Gameplay Enhancement

This mod is straightforward, as installing it allows you to equip an unlimited number of amulets and rings. By default, Oblivion Remastered allows you to wear one amulet and two rings, one for each hand. The Unlimited Equipment of Amulets and Rings mod removes the game’s amulet and ring slots.
This essentially lets you wear an unlimited number of rings and amulets according to your preference. If you have multiple enchanted amulets and rings that you want to take advantage of, then this mod will let you do so. The possibilities of how many effects you can combine are endless and can make your character extremely powerful.
The mod removes the slots entirely, so while you can equip amulets and rings, you can’t wear them, and they won’t be visible on your character.
8 Quest NPCs Run
Mod Type: Quality Of Life

The Quest NPCs Run is one of the most convenient mods created for Oblivion Remastered. If you are doing a quest that requires an NPC to tag along, then you’ll know the struggle of waiting for them to slowly walk, allowing you to progress in the quest.

PostsThis mod is a fix for this nuisance, as it makes quest NPCs run alongside you rather than walking. This mod could potentially save you time that you can spend on other important tasks rather than waiting for a slow NPC to follow you, so your quest can advance.
7 Carry Weight Modifier
Mod Type: Gameplay Enhancement
Close- Mod by E3roKK
If you’ve ever gone dungeon diving and, after defeating all the enemies, had to make multiple return trips to gather all the loot, then this mod is for you. The Carry Weight Modifier mod does exactly what it says. It increases the amount of weight you can carry so you aren’t over-encumbered and slowed down.
How the mod goes about achieving this is unique, as Oblivion Remastered doesn’t allow mods to modify the allowed weight directly. Instead, the mod changes the weight of lockpicks to negative 150, and how much carry weight you gain depends on how many lockpicks you have in your inventory.
6 SB More Sensible Crime Alarm
Mod Type: Gameplay Enhancement
- Mod by E3roKK
Oblivion Remastered has some of the most superhuman guards in gaming history that will be alerted to crimes you committed from miles away. If that’s not enough, even the cute horses in the stables will notice your crimes and alert authorities. This makes it harder than necessary for criminals to go about their business.

PostsThe SB More Sensible Crime Alarm mod modifies the crime detection range and decreases it to less than half the default. This doesn’t remove the risk of you getting caught completely, but it does make the detection more logical and realistic. The mod also sets the responsibility value of horses to zero, like other creatures, so the animals can't witness crimes.
5 Enemy's Dropped Weapon Stays On Corpse
Mod Type: Quality Of Life

A big annoyance when you’re fighting enemies in an open space like a forest is that when you kill your opponent, they drop their weapons. The issue with this is that sometimes it becomes close to impossible to find the weapons. This is especially troublesome if you put in massive work and time, and in the end, lose the weapon to the world.
The Enemy's Dropped Weapon Stays on Corpse mod removes the option for opponents to drop their weapons, and instead, they stay on the slayed enemy’s body. This makes it a simple task as you walk up to a defeated enemy and grab their prized possession from their corpse.
You will be unable to get Shadowrend after defeating your shadow version in the quest Symbols of Office, with this mod installed, as their corpse isn’t lootable.
4 Difficulty Slider Fixed
Mod Type: Gameplay Enhancement

Oblivion Remastered settings aren't optimal for most gamers, with many complaining and hoping for the settings to be changed. When you change the difficulty in the game, the change is too drastic. The game becomes too hard or too easy, depending on how you modify the setting.

PostsThe Difficulty Slider Fixed mod changes the multipliers of Oblivion Remastered’s difficulty settings, so the changes are less extreme. The multipliers affect how much damage you take and deal to enemies, so modifying them changes everything. The mod also has multiple versions with different multipliers, so you can choose what is right for you.
3 Alternative Start
Mod Type: Gameplay Enhancement

Once you exit the sewers after finishing the lengthy tutorial, you can’t change your name, skills, or any other details. To make any modifications, you’ll need to redo the tutorial unless you have a save from the tutorial or before exiting the sewers. The Alternative Start mod changes how the game begins.
With the mod installed, you won’t be in the jail cell at the start of the game and won’t have to complete the tutorial. Instead, you’ll arrive in Cryodiil on a ship without needing to go through the entire process. This is a fresh breath of air, especially if you’ve played the original game and have broken out of jail one time too many. The callback to Morrowind's starting section is a plus.
2 Auto Upgrade Leveled Items
Mod Type: Gameplay Enhancement
Close- Mod by TheOneTrueRy
Ask any Oblivion Remastered fan one thing they dislike about the game, and there is a high probability the answer will be leveled items. The game awards quest rewards based on your character's level, so if you complete a quest that gives an amazing reward too early, you’ll be stuck with a subpar item.

Posts 1The Auto Upgrade Leveled Items mod can help you out as it will change the powers of items according to your level progression within the game. This makes it easier for you to complete any and every quest you wish without the fear of being stuck with a weaker reward because of a low-level character.
1 Oblivion Optimizer
Mod Type: Performance Enhancement
- Mod by FrancisLouis
The Oblivion Optimizer mod improves shaders handling and optimizes asset streaming to avoid stutters and gives better performance. It also improves CPU and GPU management while disabling unnecessary background processes and debug logs. The mod aims to improve frame rates and performance.
With the mod installed, Oblivion Remastered should run smoother, but the result may vary depending on your hardware. The best thing about it is that, while optimizing the game, it ensures that visual and other settings aren’t impacted. This is why you’ll get a smoother experience with the amazing graphics and other elements intact.
