OFFICIAL Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim (Discussion)

lol do that enough and you'll create bows that can 1 shot dragons. totally kills the game.

instead of epic fight for your life combat you get *bink you die*

 

[Irony]

Lulz, But I like one shot kills.

 

[Depth]

Potion of invisibility that lasts 2,800,000 seconds (over a month), regenerate health by 3,500,000% for 300 seconds, 1,500,000 armor rating from a set of leather armor, stuff like that.

The health regen potion had a value of 63,000,000 gold so of course I sold it to a guy who only had 700 gold. You should see what that does to your speech level.

The only thing missing is the announcer voice over "Head Shot" and "Unstoppable"

 

[de.das.dude]

im playing this game again!

i understand so much more now. :O

 

[Depth]

I'm not much for the In The Knee jokes but this one made me chuckle

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

im playing this game again!

Me too finally and totally back into it. Some nice, newly-installed mods like Climates of Tamriel and Lush Tress and Grass certainly have not hurt. Bought Dawnguard for $10 too but not enabling the .esm yet.

 

[Irony]

I decided that this is the most awesome armor combo:

It's ebony mail with a nightingale hood. And the shoulder strap thing is from the bandolier mod.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Nice. Saw that Bandolier mod I need to grab it. And I use that Ebony mod too.

 

[Irony]

Yeah, bandolier is wonderful. And it looks good too. I don't think I actually have any ebony armor mods currently; unless I installed one a long time ago and forgot. Which could be...

Ebony armor has been my favorite since the first time I saw it. Which was when I got killed by the knight that wanders around.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Yeah I thought it was a mod that added that white trim design but maybe I am mistaken. I know I do have some ebony mod though but installed awhile ago and have forgotten details too.

 

[Black Panther]

Just curious, has anyone got all the Steam achievements for this game?

 

[AphexDreamer]

Just saw the Hobbit and immediately wanted to play Skyrim again.

And no I don't have all the achievements yet and oddly enough I looked through them and some of the stuff I should have but just don't.

 

[RejZoR]

Is there any place where i could buy lots of enchanted items (especially rings) that decrease the cost of spells, especially destruction and restoration.

I have lots of regenerate Magicka faster stuff and only one helmet with -20% destruction cast cost. But still, dual casting lightnings eats it up very quickly. So i resort to dual casting of fire bolts. Cheaper and they stun opponents for long enough for magicka to regenerate a bit.

 

[Irony]

Enchant yourself some awesome stuff. Or, if you just want the stuff right now, open the spoiler...

Spoiler

open console and type: "coc qasmoke"

In the chests are one of every item in the game, including every piece of armor enchanted with each type of enchantment, and each level of enchantment from the weakest to the strongest.

 

[RejZoR]

Nah, i prefer getting the stuff myself. Not exactly good at enchanting though. Don't want to run my great robe with 150% magicka regeneration to make a 5% magicka regen ring with it...

 

[Athlonite]

then open console and type tgm whilst you do you bit on enchanting

and if you want to wear all the rings at once go over to nexus and find the multiple ring mod

 

[techtard]

I try not to enchant or use blacksmithing, the game is too easy using these methods.

 

[Irony]

Im usually just too lazy. You find decent enchanted stuff all over the place fairly often

 

[Black Panther]

You find decent enchanted stuff all over the place fairly often

Yup, loot especially the boss chests.

Thing is that as you level up you'll get better and better loot. I'm finding stuff which I wished I could have found when I was below level 10... but I guess that would have spoilt the game!

______________________

On a different note, is anyone running Skyrim using Bandicam to monitor fps here?

I had a little scare because I modified the ini to ugridstoload=7 and although the game ran smoothly at 2660x1440 it crashed every 5 minutes. Then I found out that if I don't run Bandicam in the background it doesn't crash at all.

 

[rtwjunkie]

Thing is that as you level up you'll get better and better loot.

Except that alot of normal (or lower-level) loot doesn't show up anymore, and I wish it would. The levelled list concept is nice, but it ignores the fact that basic weapons and loot would still be found just as often as they were early in the game. I dinno, just a little "realism" that I wish was in the (yes, I know it's a fantasy RPG) game.

I'm all about smithing though, just not enchanting. I find it much more satisfying to create stuff.

 

[KainXS]

lately I have been getting a problem I never had before, I start the game and I have a framerate of about 50-60fps, go into a house 60fps but when I leave the house back outside the framerate drops to like 10fps and this just started so I reinstalled and removed the mods I had and it persists, anyone know what could cause this.

 

[Super XP]

I also restarted playing this game. Stopped when I was level 55. Now I am juggling between Rage DLC, Skyrim and L4D2.

what updates / patches have you installed any or none

I know one guy who got them all, I don't think he knows what the sun looks like anymore.
