Archery is only really good if you have an insane bow or abuse the whole shoot arrow and resneak thing.

well either that or you let a companion/summon tank the shit for you.

Nah, I'm playing on master level 46 and I only use re-sneak with melee weapons. I'm using the Nightingale Bow for like 10 levels now and with Archery perks, I can kill an ass load of things. Moving faster with bow drawn perk is pretty key for kiting. You just have to use Archery like an Archer - sitting there throwing shit at someone isn't going to work at higher levels/difficulties.

archery relies on perks to do well, without perks you're like a little boy with a slingshot trying to take bring down rock formations.

If using berserker rage and bow damage items, it becomes real high real quickly. Furthermore, you can get 3.0x multiplier with sneak pearks on your first arrow.

The issue with the bow is that it fowllows a rigid trajectory and the rate of fire is slow at first.

The most damaging things are sneak with a dagger (30.0x multiplier with DB items) or to simply go with berserker rage (orc racial ability for 2.0x damage) and dual wield perks.

No matter your level, you will kill stuff, just about anything in less than 3 seconds.

By the way, does anyone know if the redguard racial attack speed stacks with the shout speed? I was thinking of trying a dual wield redguard.
Can we snipe it? Yes we can!

How is a rigid trajectory an issue. If it weren't rigid, how are you going to consistently hit?

Has anybody received a second letter from faendal? In one of my playthroughs i killed a whole bunch of people in riverwood and was approached by a courier afterwards with a letter from faendal stating he had a proposition for me and he didn't care about me killing everyone. I couldn't find him at the time and have reloaded an older save and saved over since, i've attempted to get the letter again by slaughtering the people again but to no avail.

Is there anybody at all who knows what faendal wanted with me at that time? I can't seem to find any mention of this anywhere on the net so i thought i'd enquire here.

he wants you to kill Sven I'd suppose. Because when you do that he sends you a letter thanking you for killing him

No issue there I don't think. I wish there were bigger penalties and bonuses for hitting enemies in vulnerable areas.

I need some help with some tips for a new Orc 2 handed warrior class. Ive started and will only play master difficulty. I plan to use as little magic as possible, but Im not opposed to leveling Magic spells to level up quicker. Should I invest in blocking for 2handers as well. Any armor type I should get asap? Should I bother with sneaking. Going heavy armor.

Heavy Armor and Sneaking don't really work that well together. Blocking is essential with 2h and IMO power bash is a necessity. Bash will probably be your most important maneuver in combat too. Sweep is nice. 2h is mostly the balance between offense and defense, IMO. Pure offense is dual wielding, obviously, with sword/shield being a more defensive way. 2h lets you block but you still have pretty hard hitting attacks and AoE.

Not sure which follower you should go with, gut says a mage of some sort. Chick from the Azura's Star quest should work decently. Make sure to dismiss her and disable/enable her via consoles before reinviting her every 5 or 10 levels just to keep her current, as the game still doesn't scale followers properly in the vast majority of cases.

The redguard racial doesn't increase attack speed. It multiplies stamina regeneration 10x for 60 seconds, once a day, like histskin for health and highborn for magicka.

Speaking of the elemental fury shout, has anyone else had the bug where attempting to use it with an enchanted weapon equipped causes it to say "this weapon is already enchanted"? This IS a bug, right?

Bug or not, it definitely won't work with enchanted weapons (even with double-enchant perk) and it's pretty well agreed upon that unenchanted weapons are better for dps for this reason (when combined with this shout of course). Hopefully it's a bug and they'll fix it

currently playing a now lvl 35 i think female redguard sneak archer / dualwield. great fun if you dont abuse and dualwield power attacks are MAD strong.+ Show Spoiler +
with upgraded chillrend and nightingale blade it took me like 8 seconds to rush down the last blood dragon i met. once he landed he was sliced meat. and this is BEFORE the 50% more dmg on dualwield power attacks since atm im just at like 67 one handed... on master ofc.


/edit forgot to mention that i also used lvl 2 mark for death. which helps quite some ~~ so far my favourite shout together with blasting enemys of bridges etc with the force shout.

orcs dont sneak! sneak is amazing in this game. but doesnt go too well with heavy armor esp at the beginning(without proper gear and perks). also pretty much all stealth gear you get for quests is light armor.

could recommend board and sword as a 2nd option when your 2handing doesnt cut it in a situation. i found shields quite entertaining and looking at the perks very very powerful. just doesnt fit my char very well, but with proper blocking and dodging you can beat enemys that with plain smashing would totally destroy you.

the slow time perk in blocking is nice. I didnt bother to level increaased blocking beyond 10% yet, i dont think 5% for 2 handers is worth much.
i have a swordmaster orc myself and at 30 right now i havent gotten enough perks to spend outside of heavy armor/block/smith/2h. a few points in healing are nice just to decrease downtimes.
