I just finished the main questline ... I'd like some suggestions on what to do next:

I've already finished Dark Brotherhood, College of Winterhold, and Thieves Guild in their entirety.

I thought it would be cool to just go to the cities and kill everyone, but a lot of the boss mobs (Jarls, etc) are unkillable, so that won't work.

Any ideas!?

Dragon Priest masks? Those are pretty fun to get, and you get a special bonus at Labyrinthian if you possess all of them.

I fully returned the Thieves Guild to its former glory and got the achievement for that, but I ended up using some console commands to go through some of the more redundant radiant quests.

Have you tried the Companions questline? Or the Wolf Queen questline in Solitude?

There are plenty of interesting quests like the Daedric princes, and Wolf Queen questline. Also, mods, try checking out skyrimnexus. The Creation Kit is also coming soon

I personally use the Swearing Mudcrabs mod, even in my original playthrough. Hilarious stuff.



Definitely a must-have.

Definitely do all the Daedric quests you havent done. Some of the better quests in the game.

Also kind of might as well do the Companions and Civil War quest lines allthough they are not that great.

The Daedric quests are definitely awesome. Without spoiling much, talk to Derevin in Solitude (the beggar walking on the streets...)

Yesterday i just installed a shitload of mods and started everything from scratch.

No longer am i a level 56 nord dual wielding barbarian.

Now im a level 4 dark elf archer / sword-shield hybrid. Stealth crit their ass then charge in for teh kill.

Also ive put restrictions on myself, with the Nord i abused the crafting / enchantment system and only had it on the 2nd highest difficulty.

This time round ive got increased difficulty mods (Dangerous dragons, war in skyrim IV) and all i can do is buy / scavenge weapons and armor, maybe improve them i havent decided - i also bumped it up to master because, well...i like to breeze through a game and then have it hand my ass back to me the 2nd time. Light armor is going to be fun indeed. (Golden claw spider one hit KO me with her poison. :<)

List of mods ive put on:

SkyUI
SkyBoost (FPS thingy)
Enhanced Shaders
Enhanced Character Models
Enhanced Night Terrain
A quality world map
Enhanced Distant Terrain
Immersive Skyrim Thunder
Improved NPC Clothing - High Res
Jaysus Swords (Not sure if this looks crap / OP yet, might remove)
Lore Friendly armor pack (same as above.)
Midas Magic - Spells in skyrim (same as above xD)
Millenia Weapon Retexture Project - WRP
No More Blocky Faces
Realistic Lightning without post-processing
Realistic Smoke and Embers
Skse (needed for alot of mods to work.)
Skyrim Flora Overhaul
Skyrim HD - 2k textures
Skyrim Sunglare
Visible Windows
Dangerous Dragons
Wars in Skyrim

Overall an amazing experience so far ^^ the game looks a shitton better with all the enhancements, i walked up to water the first time and got the feeling i would fall in, IRL

Not sure on the difficulty or anything yet but that fucking spider :<

Well you still have at least the companions(fighter's guild) to do of the major side quest story lines, it's pretty dungeon heavy though. It does have couple cool moments anyway and doing it next would sound sensible to me.

Play through again on the hardest difficulty, and you're not allowed to put perks into anything but 2-Handed fighting, Heavy Armor, and Block. It's what I did and I'm still working through it. It's unbelievably difficult.

Also you're not allowed to learn new spells.

One does not simply 'finish' Skyrim.

For me, my first playthrough was with a 1h-shield standard melee warrior, didn't really have an identity except I liked killing stuff. Finished most of the quests (all 'questlines' except College of Winterhold, most of daedric artifacts) and well, I needed a better identity for myself.

So, on my second playthrough, I grabbed a couple sweet mods and went Jedi. Sort of Jedi, kind of a Sith, but no, I'm not completely on the dark side yet! Still 1h (I hate 2h) + invisibility (illusion spell), more sneakish, still like killing stuff but also on a path of becoming the emperor (assassinate emperor + kill Ulfric who seems like the 'next best thing') and yes I wield a RED lightsaber like a boss.

Anyways, creation kit is going to bring a whole new wave of awesome content so you can take a couple days off while the modders get on that.

Honestly theres not much to do after you finish the main quests,you can wait for mods,but besides there theres nothing else to do in The Elder Scrolls "3 inches ocean" Skyrim.

Its so easy to max out on everything,not much of a point in speccing in a certain area.

Well you could always do Dark Brotherhood Forever. That quest never ends. And it gives you plenty of money. :D
