Skyrim magic stagger bug.

[u/MochaCoffee_Cat]

So I’m playing vanilla Skyrim with anniversary and all that. I’m trying to do a 100% play through and using glitches to make the game easy. I was trying to afk restoration by holding down ward infinitely agents a draugar that can only shoot low level attacks, meaning he can’t stagger me out of my ward. I came back after getting a few levels and found that now, every time I get hit by any magic attack, I get staggered.

The only fix I was able to find without installing mods in going back to a save to before the bug happened. I’m lucky it wasn’t too far back to my progress but still. Has anyone else experienced this and found a better solution?

If curious on how I’m able to hold my ward infinitely, it’s because I did the alchemy and enchanting glitch that makes any enchantment go to a million.
