    Arrows just flop to ground

    most of the time my arrows fall to the ground couple feet in front of me no matter how much I draw the bow. Does anyone know whats causing this bug so I can continue playing my archer? It happens with bound and regular daedric bow/arrows. I dont know if it happens with other bows/arrows

    Vampirism used to be annoying

    For roleplaying purposes Ive been playing a vampire. Even though I dont use illusion spells, didnt sneak at all. And you have to constantly feed...constantly. I had 2 valkihir vampires(lvl48) as thralls and Mjoll Lioness(in daedric) as wife. All as part of my vampire tribe. The vampire thralls...

    OMG vampirism + necromage is incredible

    Necromage = 25% boost effects on undead Vampirisim makes you dead by game standards Ive read soo much stuff about skyrim on all the wikis. Obsessively so. The only referance I read was that healing spells would be more effective when cast on yourself. Fair enough. grandhealing using both...

    Are dragons and giants armoured?

    I ask because I just figured out that a sword in left hand and axe in right hand(15% faster swing) is higher DPS than any other combination like swords in both hands. I normally run 2x maces for the 75% armour ignoring perks. But.... sword + axe = 9.8% more DPS. Which makes me wonder which is...

    which type of magic?

    Which type of magic (frost, shock, fire) would you recomend for a shield weilding mage? Also what magician tactics do you use? Have you found fear or calm spells to be effective? What about wards? Do you go for large magic pool or magic restoration?

    trouble summoning

    Am I doing something wrong or is it part of the game balance. But I usually have trouble summoning thralls(the permanent variety). Making 10+ attempts to get one up. Is it to prevent spamming them in combat?

    is it cheating?

    was having discussion where I mentioned stacking potions and gear to make really powerful weapons. Someone derided me for using fortify restoration potions. Which at the time went over my head. I had no idea what he was talking about. I have recently learned about the fortify restoration...

    heavy armour conditioning perk

    this perk makes armour weigh nothing and doesnt slow me down so... 1) if it weighs nothing does that mean it makes no noise? 2) I dont notice a difference running with or without armour. So what exactly am I getting from this perk for not slowing me down. I did a little experiment where I ran...

    advantage of bound bow?

    Free arrows is one advantage, no weight to carry around. But is there another reason to use bound bow instead of a nicely crafted/enchanted daedric bow? Anyone recomend these for reasons I havent thought of? I dont imagine they do damage even close to the enchanted versions

    Overpowered stats

    I know making overpowered character isnt everyones cup of tea. It ruins the game. But when your at the end of the game it can be fun to mess with. Didnt use any exploits unless you consider smithing potions + alchemy gear done in sequence to max potion/enchanting/smithing ability an...

    What makes skyrim good?

    Had a friend visit. I love the game. But couldnt think what sets the game apart from other rpgs. I was left saying that you can use either hand. The graphics are nice, the world is big, the game play is good. But not really more than other RPGs like final fantasy. Dragon age(original) has...
