EPTPotions don't cost shit, just cheap, cheap ingredients. And when you can turn 30 septims worth of vampire dust and eggs into a 11.5k potion.. lol just imagine what the other fortifies are like.

 who cares how OP it can go. (me, I want all the gold)It does make me wonder what they did in the QA/Beta stage. Were they honestly trying to break the game or did all the testers just cream their pants at how good skyrim is hehe + Show Spoiler [Companions End Spoiler] + Does anyone else feel like the actual damage/defense aspect of being a werewolf is useless? Against human(ish) npcs it does okay, not great but okay. Against higher level monsters and such it's rather useless though. A giant is gg, even a mammoth is a tremendous fight. The lack of health regeneration and paltry amount healed by feeding is really prohibitive for how I play. If there was an inherent strength stat or a unarmed skill (or even a potion ^.^) it would be one thing but I feel naked and weak as a werewolf against multiple bandits or worse. The only utility being a werewolf has for me is fast travel speed. Say I take a bigger fall than I thought and my horse died. Np, turn into a beast and actually go faster for a while. That is what inspired me to write this. It's a common occurrence in my game and the only (albeit fantastic) reason I would use beast form. Fun note: Altmer are scum. They patiently waited for me to kill a dragon and ambushed. I decapitated one and am wearing the others clothes as a trophy. I'll go loiter around Markesh and remind them of Mer and Men. | ||

Also there is a bug with at least two headpieces that are not exclusiv with circlets so you could have five pieces (one was the Dark Shroud headpiece i believe; too lazy to confirm right now). | ||

The only perks that are entirely useless in the tree are Snakeblood and Green Thumb. If Nirnroot was only found in the wild and not at NPCs I'd get Green Thumb on that basis alone =_= (the vile memory of the nirnroot quest in oblivion). But all my ingredients come from shops and harvesting in the wild is just.. it's having a garden in real life. I can buy all the tomatoes I need at the store. Snakeblood is utterly useless. You can just use a potion or restoration if you're poisoned. I've never been put in any danger by a poison before. | ||

I never saw those. I also have a permanent daily unlock-any-lock-for-free power for some reason. | ||

Being clubbed to death while getting up however does. Best option is to dodge the shout. If you can't dodge or kill him you better be good at running. | ||

If you want to do the alchemy/enchanting feedback exploit, you technically don't need any perks, but it will take a LOT of grand soul gems. At that point you might as well increase your gold with a console command... | ||

Oh, I just killed him (Swords with Paralyze chance is too OP) and now I'm fighting a dragon priest... edit: Wow, Volsung's mask sucks unless you're super low level (when money actually matters) and you're not an Argonian (I am -_-) | ||

+ Show Spoiler [Dark Brotherhood bug] + THIS is what I did and it pleased me greatly. Did anyone else stab the bridge in her throne, loot her corpse and zoidberg away wearing her wedding dress? Swagger 20 MINUTES LATER I'm still reloading and trying it again in a futile attempt to see what triggered the Honor Thy Family quest (If you kill/steal/hurt the Dark Brotherhood, pay a fine). I didn't. I followed the quest exactly as the developer intended, even reloading and doing it proper with the gargoyal head. Fucking bug -_- | ||

+ Show Spoiler + After I returned from Mzulft, Ancano is doing something to the Orb. Then, after the blast you are supposed to find the Arch mage in the courtyard and talk to him to get the next quest. However, after the blast, the Arch mage lies dead in the courtyard, his corpse unlootable, and Ancano and the mage chick are walking around like nothing happened. Are there any ways to fix this, or will I never be able to continue the questline? :C I'm on PS3 | ||

There should pop up another quest to help defend it If that doesn't work, the quest is bugged. Reload to a point before it. | ||

I cast flame cloak and slowly burnt down all that aggro'd on me (The family- no guards). After the wedding reception was dead the Argonian from the DB stood there, then on talking to him told me to go pay off my infraction with the DB. I've also tried just running away after the murder and fighting everyone in a brawl including a half dozen guards. I hope he isn't dead and if he is I'm console cheating to revive him =_= its not my fault! | ||

Are the 20 extra quests the ones that Vex and Delvin give you, or am I missing something? Yes. There's an achievement behind it but + Show Spoiler [spoilers] + It's a lot of trouble. You have to do 5 missions in each city listed (Markesh, Whiterun, Solitude, ...uh, that other one not winterhold but.. Windhelm and Riften. Both Vex and Delvins missions count and you can do two at once to quicker reach the 25 misc quests. Once you do five in a city you'll receive a special quest to incorporate it into the Thieves Guild domain. Once you do all four cities you'll have one for Riften then you'll be done. Which, ends up being a huge pain in the ass. You eventually finish a city and have to stand there, accepting a mission then declining it once the quest turns up in your log and you see it's in a city already finished :/ | ||
