Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

My character was becoming too powerful/boring. Breton, 99 Smith and Enchant with One-Hand+ armor and Health/Mana Drain sword, Atronach Stone for a 100% absorption of magic which equals to unlimited Healing magic ability...

I just rushed to beat the game and get him over with. Maybe whenever DLC comes out, I'll pick it up again with a new character.

I have to rebuild my Punchmage, I accidentally deleted her when I was moving some saves around. Oh well, only got her to the 7000 steps anyway.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Yeah, that build sounds tough to me, at least from the get go. Well come to think of it, as the game progresses that might be the most entertaining build... As I stated before, I went with the 2 handed warhammer with smithing and enchanting build. I have warhammer maxed out so i doo 100% more damage with it, and it ignores 100% of a monsters armor... I have my daedric warhammer enchanted with soul trap, and 80% of the monster I fight i kill in 1 regular swing, 95% of the monster i kill in 1 swing with the power swing. I also have my dragon armor legendary with increased stamina and health regen. I've increased the game play as high as it goes to expert, and still it's hard to find a challenging fight... I'm going to finish the game though.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I played for a couple of hours last night, but I stopped because it was going to be an all nighter by the looks of it. <_<;

Why is Skyrim so awesome, and why do I have to work? (T-T )

At least playing XIV I can stop after a couple of hours without withdrawals. <_<

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

My only gripe about western RPGs is the common tendency to make a "boss" feel like another rank and file peon. People complain about the bosses in DX:HR but they feel at least like a break from the rank and file in the same way bosses in Metal Gear Solid do. Major bosses should feel like a big, special occasion. They don't need to be ten story terrors like in Metroid, but some could stand to be.

Yeah, that's why the Dragon strength mods are Akatosh sent.

Ok they do that quite a bit in Skyrim, but I don't recall that problem occurring in any of the other western RPGs I've played. Then again most of my experience with western RPGs that I can recall consists of stuff Black Isle did, and they were just phenomenal at putting together good games so maybe I'm biased.

That video was unbearable, kuma.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

so 100 enchanting, 100 smithing, 100 heavy armor, 100 2 handed weapons = overpowered even on expert level, lol... But why do i still find the need to accept missions, run through dungeons, one hitting bitches in the face with a standard swing, and continue the monotony? idk...

oh, and i did something that has the greybeards unwilling to talk to me anymore. so i'm not sure if i shouldve not done what i did, or if there's a way to reverse their ill will towards me? It was part of the main line of the war between the empire and the stormcloaks... if you know what im talking about PM me if you got help. I dont know how to use spoilers plus i dont think spoilers actually work when you get email confirmation of new posts, so i dont want to try, because this is a huge spoier...

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

'Cause it's awesome.

And with mods you can increase the difficulty or mod other things to make it more interesting. But, PS3?

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Mezlo... I think I know what you're talking about but maybe not. If you took a VERY strong stance with the Blades and thus REALLY disappointed the Greybeards the only way to reverse that decision (as far as I am aware) is to revert to a previous saved game. That decision does not need to be made until after you have completed everything you wish to (ie all main story/war quest lines and shout quests)... but the Blade's storyline/quests will not be available until you do what I think you did.

Help any?

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Yes, thanks! Ray also PM'ed me and said the same thing but actually stated what i did. Soooo... no more shouts for me through the greybeards i guess... I'm not really sure if i need any more though. I just would really like to complete the flame breath and the ice form shout. I think i'm only 2/3 on those...
