Skyrim Thread

Ive had it crash out to steam a couple of times, I have a feeling it has something to do with graphics drivers though. Running the game on max on ultra, everything maxed out. Might be a little issue in there somewhere.

I'm starting to wonder if it might not have something to do with ram, as most people I hear experiencing CTDs have more RAM. I've only got 3GB, how much are you running?
 
I sold my krosis mask before I knew u could collect them,anyone have any ideas how I could get it back,do buyers keep your items?
 
Ventured off the Dark Brotherhood quest line and did 1 & a half dungeons.

Another thing I've picked up is that I miss the char screen where I can see exactly how much damage I'm doing. The damage counted in the items menu does take enchantments into account, example: I have the nightingale bow and another ebony bow, the unenchamted bow does more damage than the nightingale bow if the item menu damage counter is to be believed.
As a result I have put all my enchanted weapons away and went vanilla.
 
You can buy it back from the npc you sold it too.

Yay got my mask back :)

Now I'm going to start chopping firewood and sell it all tomorrow when I wake up

Edit: Nope seems u cant cut more than 3 firewood before he stops

howsit dudes. i have just started Skyrim last night on the xbox. great game! but i had a couple questions :

1) if the owner of a house is standing outside, and i walk in and steal something, will the alarm bells go off? or can i commit a crime safely, just so long as nobody sees me ?

2) if i have a flame spell in left hand and a weapon in right hand, and i zap enemey until they almost dead, but i then apply killer blow with my weapon, which of my stats goes up ? the "one-handed-weapon" or the DESTRUCTION spell or both ?

3) similiar question as above, with regards to sneaking. if i sneak around, does it automatically increase that skill over time? or do i have to actually attack somebody while sneaking ?

You can commit crimes as much as you want as long as there are no witnesses.

As for the leveling of your skills, both will level. Since the more you USE a skill or weapon that trait will gain experience. Just use your skills and they will level, kills aren't necessary to level your skills.

Hope this helps.
 
my companion got killed last night... darn stupid ice troll, i had to run away cause i couldnt kill it lol

Sneaking does go up if u just sneak around,but sneaking close to a enemy makes it go up ALOT faster
 
Has anyone done the Mage's College quests in Winterhold? Did you notice a bug with the last battle of that quest?

It was a freaking awesome quest, one of the most brutal mini adventures. Some potent enemies along the way but I think the final battle was bug ridden. I don't want to give away spoilers but I couldn't take any health from that last guy. I tried for ages and used my most powerful spells with no effect. A couple of Wisps randomly showed up and started attacking my opponent. So I thought screw it and went and stuffed around elsewhere. Then I get a message saying the guy died and the quest is completed.

Anyway, I thought I was supposed to be the guy who showed him his own ass. You get some very cool rewards and everyone congratulates me for doing it even though I just ran away. haha

Thanks for reminding me. My dead companion is still lying in Labyrinthian and has a lot of my stuff still on her. Should probably go and retrieve it and sell them or disenchant the magic ones...
 
Sorry if this has been asked before but...if you have a robe that has the ability to regenerate Magika 100% faster and you also have a hood that has the ability to regenerate Magika 50% faster...when you wear both, is your Magika's regeneration rate increased by 150% on your base Magika regeneration rate? Or is 100% the max (for some arbitrary reason)? Or is the regeneration rate compoundedly increased? (i.e. 100% increase on the base rate and then 50% on the increased rate).

I have robes that generate magika 100% and a mask the generates magika 100% and it seems to be working at 200%. If I use my spells it almost regenerates as fast as I use it. So it takes ages before I'm dry. I also have 2 magic staffs from some ghost king and now have the most over the top mage of destruction I've ever seen!
 
I use the Arch Mage robe and that Morokei mask - 200% magicka regen rate - IT ROCKS!

I also use a Mage's Circlet (+60 magicka) and a Amulet of Magicka (+50 magicka).

Never again shall I want for magicka again.
 
Anyone else got the Wabbajack yet?

Wabbajack_skyrim.jpg


Damage: 30
Weight: 10
Value: 1565
Enchantment: A blast from Wabbajack with an unpredictable effect.

Craziest staff ever!

Wabbajack is a mysterious staff that casts an unpredictable spell which ranges from transforming enemies into other creatures to casting a random Destruction spell to even healing your enemies. This can completely change a battle by transforming an enemy into something weaker, or possibly something much stronger.
