I've run into most of them. If you climb mountains and see the dragon icon, that indicates a dragon and probably a word wall.

I got a few shouts from the graybeards but mostly just stumbling upon them in the mountains or even some quests do send you into dangerous areas with word walls.

I think I've read the best shouts come from the main quest line.

For the most part I just use Marked For Death on big bosses.

Uh oh!

My misc quest is down from 2 pages to just 4 quests.

Although I still haven't started the stormcloak rebellion, theives guild, and only done first mages quest and only first main quest. Oh and I think I have 2 cities that I've never been to.

Ha! 116 hours played. Yikes!

I'm on the last stormcloak quest. Not sure if I want to do the the MQ with this 45 thief or start over and do it. I kind of want a Nord Warrior to be the first character to do the MQ. Though I do want to get the level 50 achievement. Urgh! So many choices!

And as much as want to do the MQ first I can't imagine doing the main quest and then the Companions. The thought of the hero of Tamriel starting as a lowly mercenary makes no sense to me. I'd have to do Companions and Imperial questions first.

Just encountered the diamond claw door glitch. It's part of the Main Quest and is game breaking because you're in an area where you can't return to the world map.

Time to start a sneaky Wood Elf.

Can anyone explain to a novice how to fill up soul gems that are empty?

You need to have a weapon that captures souls or cast the soul trap spell.

Does anyone know if conjured weapon damage depends on the conjuration skill or the weapon skill or both?

I'm not positive but I believe you can duel wield those, I rarely use them and when I do I usually have fire in the other hand .

I have 100 enchanting and an enchanter elixir but my 20% fortify smithing only becomes 22% not 25%. Anyone know why?

In past games you could only get the max in the best items.

I assume it is the same, thus a gold diamond ring might or necklace would hold a higher enchantment than a ruby ring or necklace.

Same would go for Daedric Armor holding a higher enchant than other metals.

I haven't paid attention enough to see if they have the same rules for enchanting in Skyrim.

I need 3 words (not shouts) to max all my shouts.

Damn dude. What are your favorites? As a sneak character throw voice is extremely helpful. I also love slow time, the effect is ver cool and it brings back memories of bullet time in Max Payne when I died step arrows.

What weapons trap souls? I'm level 31 and don't recall seeing a soul trapping weapon yet.

At your level, check all the merchants. I'm sure one of them has it. If not, someone at the college will have a soul trap spell for you to buy.

Eta: usually the weapon is called "mace/sword/ dagger of animus"

I didn't see one for a while then kept seeing a whole bunch. Just check the blacksmith in each town you go to, general goods as well.


Anyone notice that fortify pickpocket has the opposite affect it is supposed to? I had a 15% chance of pickpocketing this gold diamond necklace. I put on my thieves guild boots which is 15% improve success and it went down to 10% I added an enchanted ring which improves odds 32% and it went down to a 3% chance. How the frick do they not notice this shite when play testing?

Time and time again I'm encountering situations such as this which makes me wonder what exactly were they doing at Bethesda months before releasing this game.
