Man, that is nice. Most of the dragons I've fought are blood dragons, which breathe frost. Regardless, I find unless there are some npcs or other mobs to keep the dragon occupied when it's on the ground, I end up dead very quickly.

What level are you?

18. I try to stay far away like you see in my picture. The archer zoom/slowdown is amazing. I tend to stay away from them on the ground cause of the same reason. I run in and reck them when they are low health.

Testing out a new weapon a mace that I got from a demon god that all I had to do was lure a poor priest to his doom. Was worth it cause this mace owns.

You noticed that? Was the whole reason I added him into the pic with the mace.

If you were wondering how cool the thief set looked wonder no more.

Innkeeper got silly about not wanting to pay the thieves guild so he had to be taught a lesson.

I'll figure out how to take shots, I have a hideously ugly Briton. My guy is 41, but I sort of abused a few things (Pickpocketlol) and magic skills to power up a lot.

rursusferre 11-18-2011 06:55 AM

Yeah, when i get from break I'll check this game out, looks pretty sweet

Yeah, I'm low-30s but mostly because of skill-up abuse. Smithing, Alchemy, Pickpocket, and Illusion (hi Muffle!) all skill you up quite fast. I also found a spot where I could just sneak into a wall for a few hours all the way to 100. I'm not sure how much good is really does you, though, because the mobs scale with you, and you just end up high level with low combat skills.

Can't get enough of the undead encounters.

Nope I usually don't. Mainly cause I kill things easy. I was thinking of making a pure mage next or a 2h warrior type that i'll use them alot most likely.

Quintilian 11-22-2011 11:09 AM

I ended up killing every companion who went with me, so I never used em.

Gogan 11-22-2011 11:34 AM

They do get in the way sometimes. I still use Lydia, mostly to tank things in multi-mob situations, and she typically gets shot in the back when she runs in front of me. But even at level 32 with ~65 Archery, I get rocked vs more than a couple stronger mobs -- especially if I don't have room to kite.

Last night I ran the quest in the thieve's guild line where you and Mercer go after that Nightingale chick who killed Gallus. There was at least one pull that ended up with 6-8 Draugers, some melee some caster (with that damn shout/stagger they do), each which take a good 6-10 shots to kill (not using true shot pots or poisons). Mercer would tank everything until he's brought down then they just gang rape me. I ended up getting through it all eventually, but I can't fathom pulls like that solo.

Like those last couple screenshots of your Yoox... unless you're 1-2-shotting those skeletons, I dunno.

Yooxra 11-22-2011 11:52 AM

I'm 35 with 92 archery, I do 1 shot a lot of the lower stuff, 1/2 shot restless usually, scourge/deathlord take some work cause of their shouts. Use potions more they help a lot, I use stamina potions with slowing down the action with archery zoom is overpowered. Poison pots on weapon with keeping your enchantments charged is nice, if you went enchant at all it's nice too. I went lockpick and planning on going pickpocket which holds us back some. I thought about 2h but it's gonna be gimped with sneak points. I want to make a 2h toon at some point and be a melee rockstar.

Yooxra 11-22-2011 11:57 AM

Can't help but simply appreciate this game when I see these videos and play the game.

I like the 50% zoom, but since it slows you down too, it's really too much of a win. Pots are huge -- agreed. But I can't say I ever drink stam pots. When I need to dish out a lot of dmg in a short time, I poison up and drink a true shot pot. But those are only for boss fights, really. My bow has Animus on it, for soul stealing, but maybe I'll enchant another bow with a dmg modifer instead.

I plan on skilling up enchanting (current ~35). I think that'll be huge. Same with smithing (which is already ~65). I hear upgrading your armor makes a huge diff (e.g. 2x the armor).

My lockpicking is in the 60s or 70 now; same with pickpocket. They skilled up *fast* once I started the Thieve's Guild line. I only put a few points into Pickpocket for the increase carry capacity bonus. Nothing in lockpicking. Don't think either are worth spending many points in. Points in Alchemy could be fun, for better poisons and health pots. But I don't think I'll have enough points if I go for Smithing/Enchanting.

I've been increasing my Magicka a lot, thinking I'd be a hybrid thief/caster, but that hasn't really panned out, so I kinda regret that now. Prob shoulda just went straight health and a little stam.

Like you, I'm really looking forward to playing again as a melee and caster. This game has fantastic replayability.

Yooxra 11-22-2011 03:46 PM

These are my current stats

Sweet dark brotherhood set, I get to contract kill people now!
http://i1195.photobucket.com/albums/...a/Skyrim25.png

I'm thinking nord for my 2h melee toon, I debated orc but nord has 50% frost resist.

Gogan 11-22-2011 04:17 PM

Holy crap that's a lot of stam.

I went wood elf because they allegedly were the best archers, but the starting skill bonus is inconsequential in the long run, it turns out. Apparently they get 50% resist to poison and disease though. Maybe that's been great, maybe not. Hard to tell so far.

The 50% fire/frost resist is pretty amazing. Hard to resist that for a melee character. The Orc racial seems pretty great too tho -- take half dmg and deal double dmg for 60 seconds? I'm guessing it's only once a day, but still. Tough choice.

Yooxra 11-22-2011 04:40 PM

Yeah I was not to worried about start stats really. I'm thinking 50 extra magic with high elf is the way to go for my caster. Overall tho i'm leaning towards making another dark elf for the 50% fire resist. Thing about the resists is that you can get the 40% resist rings for heavy casting and dragon encounters. 90% fire or frost is just to good for owning fire/frost dragons and heavy caster encounters.

I went overboard on the stamina but it's well worth it for looting/ and never running out of slowing a fight down with bow or running in with weapons hot to rape something. It's why I don't have much problems with fights. I felt comfortable with health around there was thinking of raising to 300. Just didn't put anything into magic due to deciding not to do much in magic.

Yooxra 11-22-2011 09:03 PM

Wow at this vid, women be taking it to far! That violin chick is getting into it.

Yooxra 11-23-2011 11:46 AM

Asano if you haven't yet make sure you do some smithing it will help with killing stuff. 2 points alone help much with upgrating your armor and weapons. Upgrate magic gear.

Gogan 11-23-2011 12:04 PM

Yeah, I've been slowly skilling it up (at 70 now), but only spent my first couple points in it last night. The armor and weapon upgrades *are* significant. And being able to upgrade magic armor/weapons was well worth the 2 points. I'll be spending more points there until I can craft Daedric weapons.

Think it'll be worth going 100 smithing for the dragon bone armor, or is the Brotherhood armor good enough to be your end-game gear?

Yooxra 11-23-2011 01:35 PM

Go dragon, Nuch did and he says he has a top end 98 bow. 4tw. We went up the right side tree.

Nucholza 11-23-2011 01:46 PM

My bow is Daedric, there is no dragon bow. I'm using cloth mage armor so not really sure if dragon is worth it or not. I made the dragon armor set for my companion, but it didn't blow me away at how good it was compared to other stuff (I can give you exact numbers later if you want)

Yooxra 11-23-2011 05:28 PM

I looked over numbers, if you can enhance it(grind stone or work bench) it's better than the class sets.

I found a 35% pickpocket neck and a 30% better sneak ring. 50% frost boots and 50% fire something. Want to dischant and use that stuff when I have double enchant.

Yooxra 11-23-2011 11:19 PM

Holy shit!
