Has any one bought it yet? If so, is it good? :smiley:
-
I've had it for a while now, if you like these sort of games its top notch. However if like 90% of the gaming world nowadays all you wanna do is shoot ppl in war games that all look the same I'd steer clear :P
I think its a great game :afro:
-
Well loved Elder Scrolls :)
-
I'm on about 33 hours so far, if you liked oblivion you'll love skyrim.
It takes the best elements from oblivion, fallout and new vegas adds in some stuff ripped off from red dead and a few other games and gives you what will be game of the year for sure.
There was a stat out the other day on steam skyrim had more people playing than, MW3, fifa12 and some other games combined.
-
Awesome game if you get it just make sure you save game quite often
-
Shame it doesnt have guns :sad:
-
Im a sneaky little bastard wood elf :cool:
100 sneak, 80 odd archery, 70 odd pickpocket, 70 odd lockpick, 100 speachcraft
First character was a sneaky dark elf mage, but slitting throats and 1 shotting people from a mile away is much more fun :evil:
Shame you cant kill kids though, one of the little bastards from riverwood sent 3 mercenaries out to kill me cos I broke into her dads house!
-
Its sexual i always o warrior with two handed weapons but fancy getting more in to the magic side... Archery is good fun!!
-
I found that it seems a bit arcadey because it seems to be optimized for consoles and then ported to the PC. But I've only just started the game.
-
anyone who plays any bethesda game on console should be shot. they are deffo 100% pc games
-
I play on pc and console they are both good and not everyone wants a gaming pc so theres nothing wrong with a console!!!
-
sure nothing wrong with consoles, just saying elder scrolls is 100% born and bred pc game :P
-
Never played any game like this before, I mostly play racing games, I like free roaming games like gta and red dead, seen some vids of this game and reviews said that's its a must buy so I picked up a copy yesterday and well it's awesome. Haven't been able to put down the controller since.
-
Loving the game so far!!
-
Deal at the moment:
http://www.gamestation.co.uk/gs/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-88090

-
Bought it the other week. Guys, this game is seriously awesome!!
-
what's this game like, few people have said its like dragon age and I'm a huge fan of dragon age
-
It's a cross between Oblivion and Fallout 3. Really enjoyable. I've been playing it almost every day for a couple of weeks now and have barely touched the surface!
-
Just dont kill important characters :P
-
true you cant kill important storyline characters, but you can kill important characters :evil:
-
So GTA medieval style?
-
No not like GTA
This has got game of the year. Got to get my ass in gear and play it some more :cool:
-
this game is awesome, i go and play on it for about half an hour and find myself still paying 3 hours later, theres so much depth to this game and things that e up unexpectedly, top buy!
-
I got this last night, any advice and tips as I've not played it, is the guide worthwhile as the game seems quite diverse?
-

i had a quick look thru the quide but you pick it up as you got along, my main bit of advise is save it all the time bcoz fi you do something wrong then you can just jump back a couple saves
-
Awesome game, wont last much past xmas before it becomes tedious and then low and behold a new 5 minute pony will come to suck my time away :grin:
-
Just downloaded it. Looks pretty decent, kind of like guildwars which I loved.
-
The whole frigging town is against me. What a sh!t game.

No doubt you rolled up to Whiterun with some illegal HID's?

:grin: :grin: I chased a scottish cow out of the town actually :grin:
-
Kill all the witnesses :evil:
I got a bounty on me when I first started playing for breaking into some guys house, stole his bow and some arrows and on my way out thought I'd test it out on a cow in the village. Shot it in the face and got a message saying all witnesses were killed and so I lost my bounty :grin:
-
Just started playing this.
Tis very good :cool:
-
runs like a bag of sh!te on consoles, laggy framerate and horrible textures.
much better on pc (providing you can run the specs on ultra) but it's still the buggiest game i have ever played. i understand it can't be perfect due to the size of the game but it is very frustrating!!
-
whats the quickest way to level up?
-
what bugs have you found? I can only think of a handful and given the size of the game its understandable
There are a few ways to lvl quick depends what you wanna do though. You can level smithing fast just buy buying leather and iron bars and making iron daggers and other low lvl crap. I maxed mine out doing this
levelling pickpocket is also very easy if you save before each target and steal everyones crap, could be seen as cheating though if you save, I prefer to risk it :evil:
healing spells can be levelled by finding some kind of trap in a dungeon and keep walking into it while healing yourself
most skills have an easy way of levelling them :)
-
Sounds good, I only started playing it properly today. Totally loving it, it's like dragon age meets fable.
I love when I meet things that whoop my ass!
Regarding having a second party member, is it worthwhile? So far I have discovered taking all their crap including house keys etc and telling them to go fudge themselves is profitable.
Also how can you equip them up?
-
I've never had a companion before, took the archer guy in the first village up to the first dungeon but as I was a sneaky bastard he kept getting me found so I told him where to go.
I dont think you can force them to wear stuff, they just wear what they like so if you give a mage a magic robe he will put it on, but he wont put on heavy armour. Thats just a guess though going from how similar games work :undecided:
-
I got Lydia, and she has died just before 'The Caller'.
I am now bogged down with 2 peoples worth of gear, right before a boss.
Last save was hours ago, any ideas?
-
Put all the items in a chest/box or drop them on the floor they usually stay there.
Oh and remember to save, save and save some more. Every 5 mins I save the game
-
Its auto-saved right inside the door at the boss fight.
The battle already started so i cant drop items now? Also, i have no Mercenary (tank) so i can stand back and spam spells for a distance :grin:
-
throw all your sh!t at him then have fun afterwards trying to find it all :evil:
-
Had to start back from like 3 hours ago, didn't have enough potions either :sad:
Finally back at the keep now :angry:
-

Start working your stamina for bigger pockets :grin: :grin: :grin:
Blinding game though, really diverse! It reminds me of final fantasy 11 :lipsrsealed: in many aspects in diversity, only difference being is single player.
-
Just overtook where i left off this morning :grin:
-
right curiosity got me and i went to blockbuster and bought the damn game. installing now. what the f£cks going on as i've never played these games before :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

well... ahhh... errr.... ehhh... umm... there's a dragon and you do what you want.
Its an RPG game so you do what you like, hunt, quests, talk to people, steal, its your choice.
-
Really good game, but it does take a lot of time to do what you might have thought to be a simple quest... like going to get the Golden Claw back... Now at the door the Claw fits in and my brain is mush and can't figure it out. Clues must be somewhere, but I've looked at the walls etc and nawt, might have to go back a bit. levelled up twice on this quest :laugh:
-
Hmmm, how do I own my mates on line? and how do i stop it glitching?
Looks like another game that wont get past the first week......
First game was awesome no so sure about this one, maybe just not to my current tastes :smiley:

online? you joking? its single player.
Havent really come across many glitches.
I think its just like oblivion which was awesome put 200 hours in on oblivion....on 20 for this and Ive hardly done anything yet
-
What levels everyone up to, im a mere 9, all my mates are 50+ :sad:
-

8 or 9 and hardly play it, will grind when I play it next, will just find some wolves and let me nibble me for a few hours to increase armour :grin: :grin: :grin:
Prob aim to get Stamina and health to 200 each as well. I'll see where the game takes me.
-
went from 11 this afternoon to 19 now.
Got one mate who's 78
-
Only levelled twice, so guess I'm 3. But I only played for 3 hours or so last night. Need more stamina to carry all the valuable stuff I'm leaving behind :sad:

Get some steel armour then find a wolf and just tank, this will level you up fairly quickly. I make sure its only one wolf attacking me as they are easy to kill with a single whack
-
I'm still rocking the armour you get from the solider lady in the beginning :grin: Not played much, will try the wolf tanking thing for a bit :smiley:
-

It's bloody boring though :grin:
Even more boring trying to increase blocking as wolves run around in a circle and change angle of attack, so you need to always be facing them to achieve a successful block, unless you can get the wolf onto a narrow path (ie between a cliff and stream), this stops it from circling you :smiley:
-
Just go exploring caves and forts, you soon level up killing everything you see. use magic they rank you up quick

That's the point every time I play I get a little box which comes up telling me my mates are on line blowing ten shades out of each other on something else.
Owning AI is not as satisfying as grudge killing your buddies with grenades :grin:
I love this genre of games but they really need to get it on line like wow but not as gay.
I did 200hrs + on the first one years ago and even bought a new pc to run it :lipsrsealed:
-
Killed the Dragon earlier, done a few other quests, now got a long list of minor things to do and two major's. Been running around not doing alot, found a fort not far from the dragon, killed everyone around it and went inside :lipsrsealed: That dude is badass for a lowly level 4 :laugh: got him down to about 3/4, but probs need a lot of healing potions.
I go in flames in one hand and axe in the other, no time for shields :laugh:
Might be different now I've got my shout :evil:
very good game thus far.
-
and horses are good for climbing up impossibly steep mountains :grin: thought I'd give it a go as I've almost run around the entire mountain near Riverwood and Whiterun.
-
If you complete the main story can you still do all the side quests after?
-
Expect so as you enemys scale with your level?
-
If you complete the main story can you still do all the side quests after?
Wasnt the case with oblivion (or fallout) until they patched it.
Am staying away from the main quest, completed the companion missions, started the thieves guild, half way through the mages guild (wish I started using magic more sooner)
I find I get side tracked very easily with other small missions or clearing caves and forts
-
Should be able to with a game like this. I went over the mountain riding my horse, found a mine on top of it :laugh: so mined that and found a half sunk Keep with lots of Necro's around summoning the undead - cleared that. Found the Lady Stone, a Mill, some invisible dude that killed me after not having saved for 10 mins, got back to the same point, no invisible dude, but a group of three guys and a girl that pretended to be in trouble ( :rolleyes: ) so got owned there too. Just having fun exploring at the mo.
Oh and don't piss off the giants at level 5. They WILL knock you into outer space. FACT. :laugh:

Side tracked FTW, get to see more of the "world" and fun stuff.
-
Been standing around in Riverwood while surfing the net and those 4 c#nts had followed me the whole way back after riding past them. c#nts got the first few blows in so got slaughtered :angry:
-
Oh and don't piss off the giants at level 5. They WILL knock you into outer space. FACT. :laugh:
:grin: I'm level 22 and still get knocked into low earth orbit if I try and take one on. :grin:
Addicted at the mo, have had a few glitches that have meant I can't complete quests such as The Book of Love quest and a companion one which means I can't complete the rest of the companion quest line. It has glitched during a few other quests too but I've been able to reload and go back with those. I think there may have been a patch released for The Book of Love so I'll go back and see if it works now.
Amazing game despite the glitches :cool:
-
c#nt flaps, they followed me all the way to Whiterun, I was standing outside to see if they would follow me. 2 Guards and my housecarl, the 2 guards f'ced off somewhere and left me and the housecarl to it... and as I'm typing this they've come back after reloading my save game... ffs am I going to have to run around levelling up before facing them?! :grin:
Will they follow me forever now if I keep running away?
c#nts. I accidently whacked 1 of the guards and they all attacked me instead of the Thugs.
-
Kill them, its only 4 of them. use a one handed weapon while healing yourself with the other hand
-
not high enough, but I managed it now as they strolled in 1 by 1, found a contract from Adrianne Avenicci... I stole all her sh!t and dumped it outside hoping to sell it to her the next day. She never confronted me about it when talking to her... she even said I can go inside and look at what else there is to buy :rolleyes: only got 3 of them the woman is no where to be seen yet.
-
Just bought my first house. Can store all my stuff there. Have something like 12000 gold.
-
First house in Whiterun (Breezehold?) is like 5k to buy isn't it?
-
First house in Whiterun (Breezehold?) is like 5k to buy isn't it?
Yeah it's the cheapest out of them all
-
Yeah I bought that house as well and fully kitted it out. Trying tog et a few more houses at the moment, I've got about 40k gold to play with. It's weird, I'm only level 22 but can kill anything that is thrown at me pretty easily. I started using magic from level 1, so dual wielding the same spell is rather on the powerful side! Plus it knocks enemies back so they can never really get to you.
-
I built up two handed and destruction/magic so can kill most things with one or two blows, or burn them quickly. I love to run into an area, run back into a corridor and because they all scramble into the corridor and end up in a line, you can just stand there with flames from both hands and burn them before they touch you. Got my lockpicking skills up too.
Not so hot on things like sneaking/pickpocketing stuff or one-handed.
I still haven't done much of the main storyline. Think I have to meet someone in Riverwood but am level 23-24 at the mo. Just spent a few mins this morning following a talking dog! :grin:
-
Why did I let the missus have a go? :rolleyes: She's followed the guard that leads you out instead of the blonde dude that takes you to Riverwood... hopefully she gets bored with the play style soon
-

Twenty to 5, shouldnt she be preparing dinner? :grin:
-
Who do you speak to regarding buying the house in whitewood?
Also whats the best weapon combo, I'm finding greatswords to be good defensively but not great on the attack

She is doing that too, chicken in the oven :grin: I went to jump on it and she moaned at me for taking the control :angry: but I have spent A LOT of time on it over the last 2 days :lipsrsealed:

Sounds good. I've pretty much maxxed out lightning magic now, so am working on cold/ice. I'll do fire last I think. Then I'm thinking of moving on to Conjuration.

Ive spent my first few points in Destruction but having a change of mind, and levelling Conjuration now, after seeing what a Fire Antroch or whatever they are called can do, the top talent point thing in conjuration is summoning 2 of them and i imagine you wont even have to use your destruction spells with a Fire one, and lightning one in conjunction :cool:
-
The mages guild final bosses are f**king solid
-
Where do i start this mage's guild malarkey?
-
Winterhold college in the north
-
Ah ok, been there many a time will have to have a closer look :cool:
-
you need to start being a sneaky c#nt its so much more enjoyable than magic :evil: most normal guys die with one shot from a bow if you are sneaking as it does triple damage, and sneaking up behind someone and slitting their throats then slipping back into the shadows to kill all their mates is awsome fun :evil:
You can also kill giants for fun, sneaking ftw!
also a tip for leveling sneak, go into the house of the guy that leads you to riverwood at the very start (or any unkillable npc that likes you) and backstab them while sneaking. They wont attack you back until you do it 4 or 5 times, then all you have to do is stop doing it for 10-15 seconds, then attack them again. It levels up really quickly, at the start its almost a level per hit :) works for archery as well
-
Ill start sneaking when I start the dark brotherhood and thieves guild missions
-
Anymore quick leveling tips, also how do you know the NPC is immortal to stab the hell out off?
I found 2h sword and bow as my primary weapons very useful, not been able to master sneaking at all even though I pickpocket all the time.
-
I've done some of the thief guild missions. Didn't really bother with sneaking much but the times I did it were incredibly useful. Just been invited to join the dark brotherhood.
-
Finally stopped f#cking about and done some missions, now part of the Companions and doing their quests. Level 12 and 9k Gold ... is it worth having your own home in Whiterun? What are the benefits over just using a drawer in the Companions place to store your sh!t?
I assume the dragon on the quest to test your "valour" is supposed to be there? It's just that it killed the sh!t heads I was fighting then turned on the mammoths just around the corner :laugh:
Will have to up my sneaking skills, sounds good being able to sneak up on a giant and kill it :evil:

Perk of a House is to store stuff, they will have weapon racks to store a weapon(s) plus other features to store other items. Also benifit of harvesting certain items and a craft table.
I found this wiki very helpful :wink:
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Houses
-
Already been using that wiki for most things I need to know, paying 5k for a house doesn't have any benefit over using my brothers in arms crib :cool:
-
I haven't bothered with a house. I've got the main bedroom in the companions and am the arch mage so got the penthouse.
-
Really should have put her off playing this and not help her when she's stuck, she's been on it all day so far :angry:
-
I'd start a new game for her....
-
She's on her live account, Nord female, I've had to do most of the big parts of the quests or let her try to say, defeat the giant spider by herself 12 times before she does it :rolleyes: Also just had to do the dragon for her because she's sh!t with the controller :grin:
-
I'd start a new game for her....
buy her a xbox and tell her to f*ck off, also remind her that in between playtime she still has to cook you food as your times far more valuable in skyrim :grin:
-
The mages guild final bosses are f**king solid
I found it pretty easy to be honest. Hardest thing I've tried to kill was some sort of dragon guardian or something.
-
all main storyline npc's are immortal, but I say the one at the beginning as he cant dislike you no matter what you do to him :evil:
also you cant sneak up and stab a giant to death lol, you have to sneak around them with bow and arrow and shoot the sh!t out of them. Its pretty easy though, cant remember off the top of my head but I think with the right sneak and bow skills you can get x9 damage with the bow and x15 damage with a dagger when sneaking, and if you get the thing from thieves guild it doubles all your damage from sneak. x18 bow and x30 daggers!
-

Really, even Morokei with the staff of magnus. I couldnt get close enough to him, he kept striking me with the electric bolt and killing me took ages to kill him. What difficulty you playing?
-
I hate mages, I usually kill them without any effort, its getting close to them that seems to be the problem with a 2h sword, my bow skills suck, so I really should level that up and give them a taste of there own medicine.

Medium.
I tend to exploit the AI's stupidity to be honest. When I killed Morokei I stood on the other side of the cavern as high as I could. He wouldn't pursue me, but instead just hung around on the other side. I would pop out, nail him with lightning, then duck, repeat.

How many dragons are there? :shocked: Just took out my 4th, love fighting them and somewhere along the lines got the fire shout and not long discovered that :laugh: Now a Werewolf and part of the Circle :lipsrsealed: Sounds like you lot are far ahead :sad:
-
I think I've killed about 15 dragons now.

Shame you can only be wereman or vampire not both :sad:
Tell your misses to play a real game like sims 3 to get her off the xbox and onto a pc :grin: :grin: :grin:

Spolier
you can cure yourself later in the game :wink:
-
Tell your misses to play a real game like sims 3 to get her off the xbox and onto a pc :grin: :grin: :grin:
She's got Sims3 pets ........ for the xbox :sad: Should tell her to get her own xbox & TV Mrs Money bags :laugh: Still having to guide her through things and tell her how to find quests and so on, gets damn frustrating because I want to take the control and just do it rather than watch her do it slowly :grin:
-
Werewolf and Vampire STD's are both curable :shocked:
Get her sims medieval, uses sims 3 engine, except you do quests.
-
I joined the Dark Brotherhood and have started on what seems a major story arc.
Still haven't done much of the main mission - haven't met Delvine or whatever her name is in Riverwood.
-
Gutted game Completed now.... willhave to wait for a bloody DLC now!!!
-
Play as a different race/skill set :wink: Does it end and not let you carry on or can you still run around doing things?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th2TMSSqaTY&feature=relmfu :grin:
-
As far as i can tell bud you can run around i finnished the dark brotherhood and it just lets you roam i may play it all again as i missed1 achievement when i killed the bloody dog!!! and yeh i fancy doing a magic dude for a change as i was maxed on 1 handed block 2 handed and archery so might do... problem is i now have assasins creed to start :D
-
I've played quite a bit and haven't been turned into a vampire or werewolf so far. Not sure if it's meant to "just happen" or not?

You'll complete AC:2 - Revalations really quickly, every spin off of AC:2 seems shorter and shorter. Only thing that consumes anytime is the capturing of Den's and training assassins, main story is very short, but some missions are quite cinematic like when the arsenal is on fire, or when you are chasing a boat with templars. But it feels like a really short game compared to the rest so far.
Werewolf thing is something to do with the champions, the vampire thing is simpler, when a vampire uses a drain spell there's a 10% chance of getting a disease, if this disease isn't cured in 4 days you become a vampire. Some pro's and cons to a vampire and same thing with werewolf:
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Vampirism
Also whats the pro and cons of destroying the dark brotherhood?
-

Join the Companions in Whiterun, do their missions and you'll get the opportunity to become part of the 'circle' aka Werewolves. Not figured out how to change back into one now after the initial run around Whiterun killing people as a Werewolf :grin:

Sitting here, bored while the wife plays Skyrim... watching Skyrim videos and came across this

:grin: :grin: :grin:
-
Go to magic and select powers, then warewolf and press RB to change into one.
-
ok getting into it now. only level 4/5 but lost 6 hours to this game yesterday :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
-
Loving this game, must have put about 50-odd hours into it now and i'm still not bored!
The warewolf thing is funny, the only thing it lets you do is maul enemies which is always good :smiley:
-
level 10 and i may be a bit obsessed :grin:
-
It gets worse as you level i'm 18 atm, not played it a few days but I have moved the xbox to the other room so the misses can watch her crap and i can game when I wish.
Also be aware with some quest items, the thieves guild once completed in terms of their main story you obtain nightingale armour bow etc... All these quest items are brilliant with a single flaw, there effectiveness is based on the level you obtain them, so the higher level you are at the time you obtain them the more the item bonus effect is.
Its the reason I've layed off doing some quests (there's not many items that follow this rule luckily)
Brilliant game though I never got into oblivion after playing it for an hour but this has definetly made me an elderscrolls fan.

player.additem
will allow you to add the correctly leveled item as you level up :wink:
-
can't do that on xbox, no console.
-
Sadly on xbox, and MS are not very happy with cheating at all :angry:

giving it's a single player game, you're only cheating yourself, I've used the console twice so far, once to fix a bug (quest wasn't being finished) and to get unstuck from some rocks I'd got stuck under.
-
I've actually managed to complete a few good story arch's, leader of the Companions and Arch Mage of Winterhold :evil: Next big quest is Dark Brother hood I think...
-
The Dark Brotherhood ones are IMO the most interestin of arcs. The others less so. I'm now Thane of Riften as well as the other one, Whiterun I think?
Sacrificed Lydia because I couldn't bang stand her.
-
Good to know the Dark Brotherhood arc is good, will do that next - still keeping the Greybeards for later on as I'm guessing that's how you start the end game arc?
Anyone actually building up their Smithing skills?
-
MY mate got his smithing skill up to 100, apparently you can make dragon armour and other cool things.
-
Daedrae armour looks the dogs bollocks :cool:
Going to have to start playing this again.
-
Smithing is easy. I used whiterun as I'd bought a house there. Buy iron and leather from the blacksmith. Forge loads of iron daggers. You'll run out of iron quicker than leather, so then make loads of leather bracers. Sell them back to the blacksmith. Go to sleep for 48 hours in your own bed, then go back and buy some more iron and leather. In the space of an hour, I'd maxed out Smithing and made Daedric armour, which IMO is cooler than the dragon ones. I also had a smithing thing which helped me make legendary armour.
-
going to have to do that.
-
Two questions.
Is Daedric armour light or heavy?
How much would you say it cost to get up to level 100?
-
Heavy. I already had around 30k gold by the time I got round to doing this so didn't look at cost
-
Two questions.

Heavy
depends how you play the game, if you use the trainers lots, if you level up through using your skills free but will take time.
-
Meh waste of time then, don't use heavy armour.
-
Meh waste of time then, don't use heavy armour.
Whats the best light armour then?
-
Not sure, I use the arch mage robes though. Really nice bonuses, especially when you're primary weapon is magic :smiley:

Good to know you can get smithing done and dusted in an hour! that's fandabidosi! I thought it'd be a PITA to level that up!!!!

Actually did this last night after reading. Had some dwarven ingot doing nothing which I used to make dwarven bows and ended up making money instead of losing any. Also went up about 4 proper levels.

not as quick but go out hunting, kill bears, wolves, deer etc and then use the leather to make bracers.
enchant the bracers and then sell for a massive profit, this will level up your smithing and enchanting.

That's the website I used for walkthroughs. Typically only used it if I got lost, or mainly to make sure I'd gotten everything before I left the cave/tunnel.

You do what you do in welling and all the medway towns, a WKD and a portion of chips and you won't be lonely for the night.

Not sure if you can screw them and have children like in fable though.
-
They are greedy so and so's in fable, they require quite a substatial upkeep financially to be happy.
With skyrim do you have kids then as I cba to google it, least your partner on skyrim cooks you food if only women in fable where like that.
-
No kids in Skyrim. Although my character is in a lesbian marriage :afro:
-
Spent a little while earlier and about £2k buying iron ignots and leather strips, went from a very low level Smithing to 40+ something in no time :grin: Going to max it out and get myself dragon armour or Daedric and use the daggers to up my enchanting :smiley:
-
I find the stupid stuff you can do in this game distract me far too much from what I'm actually supposed to be doing, like stealing everyones clothes in a town so they all walk around in their undies, or sticking a bucket over the merchant in riverwoods head then stealing all his stuff and having him say to you 'me and you are the only people around here who aren't complete fools!'
the list is endless :evil:
-
How'd you stick a bucket over someones head? I assume by dropping the item while standing above them on a table or something ? :grin:
-

press and hold E
or probably the pickup button on the console.
-
yeah hold the pickup button and hoer it around over their heads till it drops on, takes a bit of practice but they dont seem to mind you smacking them about the head with a bucket for a few minutes :grin:
-
ok i'm maxed out on smithing and two handed and i'm level 51. it all seems to be slowing down a bit. how many levels are there?
-
Think you just keep on going until you max out all the skills
-
yeah but i'm running out of quests. i'm just going round collecting books and killing bandit leaders!
-
there are 80 levels I think but you can get all skills to 100, you just cant go above lvl 80. not sure how to run out of quests though I'm in danger atm of maxing out b4 I even start the story :P
all the people playing this properly on pc should go check out the mods on nexus or steam if you bought it through that, makes the game even more awesome than it already is :afro:
