So, I'm level 20 i have the sneak attack bonus from the sneak perk tree but, for me, it's impossible to one-shot mobs like Falmers, Dwarven machines, Bears, etc. What am i doing wrong ? I'm using nightingale equipment ( bow + dress ). | ||

I should've probably focussed on archery as elf speciality but i went onehand/block  .An useful tip for those who fight close combat and/or use the fps camera, you can change the FOV in the console. Just open console and type: fov number (i find 110 to be great fov for the first person camera). I have a question, why does my trap a soul spell not work? I tried it on orcs and thalmor agents so far and each time it said i don't have a gem big enough. WTF? I had greater sould gems and grand sould gem as well.... It pisses me off to always have to spend money on soul gems, they cost a lot. Humanoids, including dremora, have black souls. Only black soul gems can contain those.

Daggers have very short range and even when dual wielded, their attack speed is about the same (if not identical) to a single wielded dagger unless you have the dual wield perks. It would be better to dual wield swords or any other decent length weapon. Dual wielding leaves you hugely vulnerable, and the tradeoff isn't really worth it imo. Notice that I chose the elemental protection perk under block - that's the best way for a non-mage to block magic. The Lord standing stone adds 25% magic resist and 50 armor as well. Dual wielders tend to get owned hard by enemy mages. So, yeah I'd have to say sword and shield. | ||

I'm using nightingale equipment ( bow + dress ). nothing... unless you can get several sneak attacks you won't kill harder enemies without them charging you. unless you abuse crafting quite a bit. archery is pretty hard until lvl 30 or something, that's what i thought when playing my 2nd char, a 1h+shield "warrior". | ||

I know you always want to dual cast. What I mean is like say I have firebolt in both hands, but then want to summon a flame atronoch, if I go to put on flame atronoch it will only put it in the left hand, I'll have to equip and unequip a 1 handed weapon to take the firebolt off the right hand to dual cast flame atronoch, and then do the same equip/unequip to put firebolt back on the right hand to dual cast firebolt. Is there a different way of doing that? | ||

I know they don't look as good but maybe I could still have a nice time and get to know some of the story etc. Tell me what you think, thanks. I would say get Morrowind, its definetly worth it (and has good graphics too with mods: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NX-MvnYUEs) | ||

I even took the advice about difficulty and put that up to masters but still was able to kill Alduin before he did anything, also my +100% resistance potions made me immune to all his breathing. -I started gathering the stones of Barenziah, got 19 of them now (had about 16 before), seem pretty randomly located so this will take a while =P -Aela the Huntress came back!! It was exactly like I expected and she just appeared back one day after I was sleeping in my home at solitude and when I woke up she was there..... watching me...... during my sleep. -About the side quests and miscs. I did help a load of ppl, pretty much everyone who I found I just talked with and if they offered a quest I did it during 1 of my periods when I just get rid of all the misc quests. -Also I love doing exploration so I have found and located tons of places. Many times theyre abandoned and the ppl are either lying dead and have a journal telling that theyre about to move out because theyre scared of a nearby dragon, or they have gone to buy cheese or whatever. I like to find out where the said ppl have ended up in or take vengeance on whoever killed them, + Show Spoiler + 1 example is once I just found an alchemists shag where inside it had a journal where it mentioned the alchemist had gone looking for mushrooms! Well, it took me about 2 hours but I finally located the alchemist lying dead in the middle of a river in a small island. -I think I completely missed the Blades quests tbh yeah, need to do it with my next charecter =( -About Vampire quests, I dunno, I find it kind of annoying to always remember to drink blood even thou it kind of has a lot of advantages as well. I got infected with vampirism during my game more than once, and once I actually became a vampire but I got it cured. -Fun fact about werewolfs, Aela the huntress is the 1 who infected you yes? well, when she saw me become a werewolf she immediately left me as a follower and attacked me...?? -.- I got double crossed =( -And yeah I did start another charecter, nord female who came from a poor family and was driven into thievery, shes a pickpocket who steals from everyone. A kind of fun path to take after playing charecter who just helped everyone. Did you ever do the forsworn quest line? | ||

I would suggest Morrowind out of the 2. But there's also a pretty newish game that came out last year that plays alot like Skyrim (similar fantasy setting and gameplay) called Two Worlds 2 and it's only $20 on steam right now. I highly recommend it! http://store.steampowered.com/app/7520/ | ||

If you have say firebolt on each hand and you want to change to dual casted flame atronach, then hit your hotkey for that spell twice. First press will equip the spell in left hand, 2nd in right hand if it was already in left hand. Haven't found a way to unequip hands with hotkeys, but that you can do with the left/rightclick on favorites menu | ||

On December 24 2011 07:43 hunts wrote: Also does it really matter which element you go with? Fire is fun but seems almost impossible to ever hit moving targets with it, feels like that would make it pretty hard to use later on. Just use the aoe fire one, hit the ground. If you hit a person with it the people behind won't be hit. If you want single target lightning is best, but you can also use ice storm (goes through walls and enemies) to slow them and easier hit them with spells. When I was still under 75 destruction I would dual cast ice storm then dual cast spam firebolt or whatever the aoe one is called. | ||

Honestly if you have a good enough computer to crank Skyrim, you should be able to get a similar (or at least INCREDIBLY BETTER THAN VANILLA) look out of Morrowind with the graphics overhaul... Assuming you set it up right | ||
