Fun things to do on Skyrim when bored

[GratuitousViolets]

I like to go running about, poking giants with my staff, then run like hell. Good times.

Giving your follower a staff of flame wall/storm wall (or both) and then casting frenzy or mayhem at the local bar never gets boring I like to find the bar that Sam Guevenne is located in because he says the best things when in battle, such as "was it something I said?" and "I'll raise a cup to your grave!"

All that while your follower goes to work on the place with the staves.

Find a long piece of ocean or something then make sure it has a fair amount of waterfalls then go to where the strip of water starts then jump in and run like it is a race... or if you are a heavy rper like me pretend that you are knocked out after messing with the medieval mafia or something...

Walk around the woods and look up at the night sky.

Pick one random encounter spot, and an encounter you want to get there. Then keep going there (make a save somewhere nearby, but far enough for the spot to respawn upon reloading) until you get what you want.
I've yet to succeed in that.

Can't beat annoying a couple of gianta and seeing how long I can get them to chase me for.

Also I'm curious, I want to get two giants to chase me to another giant camp and try and fight four/or three giants and see how well I do!

Explore the depths of the Sea of the Ghosts

 

[Chadonraz]

Hunt for Treasure Maps and then try to find the treasures.
Currently I have five maps, and need to find two treasures. I've already spent hours looking for them, even though there aren't too many places that match either map's picture. Treasure hunting =/= guaranteed easy money.

Ooh i hate thoseee i met my first one in Blackreach that wasnt fun

Not a fan, but fire arrows make short work of her. If you're interested, read the book on them. I have it in my library at one of my homes (I think Markath).

 

[Daelon DuLac]

Turn off my computer, walk down to the river, sit on a bench, and smoke my pipe while feeding the birds or watching the boats.

But you can do that in the game! Now wouldn't that be more fun... wait... I think my obsession is showing...

 

[Pretty Vampires]

Well, to be honest, where I live there aren't many good places to do sight-seeing. The buildings sure but that's more of a hassle with all the traffic and crowded sidewalks.

Skyrim allows me to see a land that I don't have access to otherwise.

Maiq needs to die.....yet he won't.

I like shooting Mammoths, and have them chase me. Until I can kill them, they wait for me outside of Whiterun, or wherever, and I have stalkers at sometimes in-opportune times......

Organizing my library at Heljarchen. One of every spell tome, one complete set of every multi-volume work, rare books on the Elder Scrolls and Ancient Falmer Texts on their own shelf....

 

[Daelon DuLac]

Walk around the woods and look up at the night sky.

I do the same thing! For about 10 seconds. Then I have to kill something!

 

[Dragon]

I jump on peoples heads.

[Chadonraz]

Jump off the bridge at the East Empire Company warehouse in Haafingar. I always do it once when I'm crossing the bridge.

 

[Grob]

Be lonely in Breezehome with a copy of the Lusty Argonian Maid, Volume 2.

Right now I am very bored: grinding up to 81. My latest hobby is shooting flying insects with my Dragonbone bow, just because I can!
