    the way i see it, the only reason of point to levelling up is to hit a particular perk point. so for instance, if you only plan to spend perk points in archery which require 70 archery skill, then there is no point in levelling beyond 70 as it wont make any difference to you damage/accurary

    agree/disagree ?
    No, your skill level still determines how much damage you would do. Eg: 10 points in one-handed would do say 11 dmg whereas 100 points would do 20 dmg with the same weapon. I would assume it affects other skills as well

    Edit: Without using perks^

    From UESP Wiki

    From watching the Bethesda demo video, it is obvious that skill increases do increase weapon damage -- you can see the damage values shown for weapons in the character's inventory increase each time the character's one-handed skill increases. Furthermore, the leaked game manual explicitly stated that weapon damage is affected by weapon skills as well as perks, and that armor rating is affected by armor skills and perks. The leaked manual also mentions that Speech skill affects persuasion and merchant prices; that Sneak skill affects sneaking; that Pickpocket skill affects pickpocketing; etc. Given this evidence, and the fact that skill levels have directly affected gameplay statistics in past Elder Scrolls games, I'm pretty skeptical about statements to the contrary that are presented without any supporting evidence.

    could you please check if there is a table like this for one-handed and sneaking? i am still not certain that a higher level does anything for the ability, and i reckon its purely to control perk point spending
    There are no tables for them. But like judgefred said it adds to the damage done. My Sneak skill is 100 and I have only put points towards the extra sneak attack damage perks & I am damn near impossible to see, I sneak in broad daylight.

    perfect, that answers my question :-) so i don't need to waste perk points on sneak+, i can just continue to level up as im doing currently.

    But I am wearing armor that boosts sneak and boots that muffle movement. The Sneak tree has a few awesome perks. Shadow Warrior for one and the stealth roll.

    My advice is try and plan you char. Like I am not planning on wasting perk points on magic since I hardly use it, id rather spend points in trees I actually use but also only for perks I want. Like enchanting has that Extra Effect. Im working towards that next. Two Legendary Ebony swords each with 2 powerful enchantments on for those pesky melee encounters or 2 enchantments for my Legendary(+) Deadric bow. Similarly my smithing is 100 but I dont have advance armor, glass or dragon perks yet simply coz heavy armor is a total waste for me.

    And it turns silver into gold.. It's the only spell.. The only one that does something like that.....
    On a side note...

    I found a telekinesis spell last night.. Thought they didn't exist in this one but they do... Hehe.. Does anyone know if there's a stronger spell than "reanimate" to raise undead because I can't raise anything stronger than a restless drougr..:/

    And this mask
