Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I believe I just acquired my 7th (out of 8) of the Dragon Priest masks. I beat the main questline finally but the Greybeards can't supply me with any more whispers. Of course, I still haven't tried that shouting in towns way yet.

I bought the Solitude house and I was pretty disappointed. I rather like my Markarth dwelling much much more. I saved right before-hand so I just went back in time like it had never happened. Maybe after I accumulate over 100k I'll come back and buy into be all the Thanes that I'm not already.

I made a huge miscalculation/assumption... I went the light armor path in smithing. I thought that once I'd gotten the Dragon Armor perk at 100, I'd be able to buy the Daedric perk. The trees do not work that way. In order to get the smithing I want I'm going to have to spend perks on the Heavy armor creation perks. This irks me. But whatever.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Didn't you have to fight off a Dragon Priest for the Mage school quest-line? I know I did. The big spooky guy that hurls lightning that two-shots you and drops a funny mask? No? Oh well, good to hear you're fairing better as a mage than I did.

Oh, yeah! I killed that guy, i just didnt know he was a "dragon priest." That was a tough fight! I saved it right before i killed the last guy that was shooting that lightning onto him protecting him. I died like 6 times in a row, then guess how I beat him? I just stood across the room from him, right where i killed the last mage. The stun locked him with dual wielding firebolt over and over again until he died. LOL. Yeah, he was tough...

As for the soul trapping enchantment, yes you need to find a weapon that already has the enchantment and disenchant said weapon in order to learn the enchantment. Once you know the enchantment you can make use of it to enchant other weapons.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

So my mage has been good as of late. I finished the mage school quest line and got some great gear there... I can now get off 4 dual wielded fireballs that pretty much destroys anything, well except for dragons, and I havent run across the dragon priests that I've seen you guys talking about, but they sound tough. As of alte I've kept soul trapper in the left ahnd and fireball in the right hand, it's a quick way to capture souls, lol... On another note, I've heard you guys talk about enchanting a weapon that will automatically trap its soul. In order to get this enchantment, do you need to disenchant a weapon that "traps souls"? then you learn the enchantment and you can put it into another weap? Oh, and bbq, I havent been able to find the enchantment of "banish" that you said you've been using to enchant daggers for sale. Is that a banishment enchanted item you stumble upon on a certain questline, or is it bought from someojne along the way?

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Well it's that time again. After joining the Dark Brotherhood I quickly lost momentum. Their outfits are very silly looking and the gloves have clipping issues with my Thieves' Guild armor, which just left a bad taste in my mouth. I think I just burn out if I play one character for too long, and then a lot of the dungeons start to blur together and you've finished your guild quest so it feels like you've won and it all starts to feel a little stale and you just need a breath of fresh air and holy run-on sentences Batman.

So it's time for a new character. This time we're going with a stupid Nord warrior, as opposed to the mildly intelligent one I rolled on my first play through. So far she has taken a liking to connecting war-hammers with peoples' faces and punching guards that get belligerent.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Oh I'm sure there was(like the bit about the Jarls). I just didn't bother watching past that point because I wasn't really enjoying the video and that part bothered me enough to turn it off. It didn't help that the guy doing the video doesn't exactly have a good voice for radio.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

So basically, you failed to process that that was an elaborate joke because one detail bothered you. There was actually some interesting factual trivia just past that.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I got to the point where he tried to use thrall summoning as part of his argument and gave up in disgust. Yes the word apparently does have Scandinavian origins, but I'd hardly call that conclusive given how the word has developed into more common fantasy setting parlance. Seriously, Vampire Thralls? An entire creature type in Magic: the Gathering? Sure, it's totally a direct reference to the word's 'viking origins', and not simply using it in a more contemporary sense given the fantasy world context.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

J9 doesn't read anything on these forums, she just reposts stuff she finds. I thought everyone knew that by now.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Backwards is no longer possible.

That's gonna be the deal breaker for me. I'm picky like that. Time to go play some FFXI then I suppose.
