    just want to ask for your advice on being an assasin

    If you want to be a true assassin, then sneak is your best friend. The sheer damage an assassin build is able to produce is staggering. When out and about in skyrim, just crouch down (have thief stone activated) and it will level up pretty quick. I'd suggest going for the assassin blade perk...

    Spoiler Mages of Skyrim

    The higher level destruction spells (and all spells for that matter) become available as your skill increases. That said, why not just make it so destruction spells cost 0 magicka? Max out enchanting, and then drink an enchanters potion (enhances your ability to enchant) and then apply it to a...

    Post Your Main Character Class Here and Rate Others

    Mine is a Breton mage. She basically has had a horrible childhood, and has never psychologically matured, so she is still mentally 10 years old. She conjures frost thralls and basically (if you know bioshock) has a little sister/big daddy relationship with the thralls.

    Worst Non-Unique Enemy In Skyrim?

    You really pissed someone off, and they did the black sacrament and made a contract to kill you.

    Worst Non-Unique Enemy In Skyrim?

    I can totally relate to that. Level 10 mage, ran in there for, what I thought was gonna be fun and poops, only to get murdered over and over and over again. Note to self, level 10 mage with flames spell vs. Falmer = you die many many times. To this day, I dread going to kill Falmer, I can't...

    Do you start a new game for no reason like me?

    lol I've made probably 75+ assassins/thieves so I know the pain of doing everything over. Even my GF knows the dark brotherhood quests (at least the first 2) by heart.

    Do you start a new game for no reason like me?

    I have to have restarted like 100+ times so far. I usually do different styles of play on each new restart, but yeah I do that all the time. I had made a redguard who was gonna be an archer, but then said screw it I'll remake my wood elf (lost due to saving over the file).

    lol I was just adding on to what you were saying.

    Starting character

    It's all about what character is aesthetically pleasing to you, and what abilities each race has (the racial powers of most races can be duplicated via enchanting our acquired shouts).

    (Unlocking) dont understand shouts

    On my wood elf (I saved over it by accident so I lost this character) I had accumulated like 19 dragon souls and had no shouts to spend them on, granted I didn't explore as much as I wish I did. So I suggest just run around skyrim with no quest active (that arrow pisses me off if I am not...

    Two handers and magic

    No, you're doing it right. Be careful though, if you have a glass greatsword with a fire enchantment, and an iron sword with a fire enchantment, disenchant the iron sword version (there is only one fire enchantment) and sell (or use) the glass greatsword.

    How many weapons do you usually carry?

    Yes you can, however be sure to have a hardsave for each character, as your autosaves will change depending on which character you are playing. Also, it is important to note, that you must, and I cannot stress this enough, MUST read each file name (it will say level, race, and name) before you...

    Spoiler 43rd level conclusions : werewolves = false

    During the Silver Hand mission, you encounter a dead werewolf in the closet of the Silver Hand headquarters (sorry its been a bit since I've done companion quests), in which Aela says "From the smell, this doesn't appear to be one of ours." Also, there is a book about Lycanthropy in which the...

    Two handers and magic

    Yes you can use that spell, but since you are going the enchanting route, why not enchant a two handed sword with the "soul trap" enchantment, that way you have no need to use a spell and then switch to your weapon, you just run up and hack away at them.

    (Unlocking) dont understand shouts

    I rarely use shouts as I have more powerful methods of disposing my enemies, that said, it did take me ages to figure out how to unlock it.
  18. Nightmare Shadow

    How many weapons do you usually carry?

    My mage has no weapons, because she is so great at magicka. My new wood elf has a hunting bow, imperial sword, and steel dagger. My Nord has a glass bow (for dragons in the air), a glass mace (main), and a glass sword for when I am disarmed.

    Best place to sell?

    Honestly, it just keeps accumulating as you get higher up. If you smith/enchant/use alchemy, then you will have a surplus of goods that you acquired on quests, because you make your own stuff which is better than anything you can find. I had a character with over 160K in gold and literally...
