re: Official The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Thread AKA Skyrim addicts anonymous

Can someone link me to the Skyrim Alchemy thread that someone started a few weeks back that showed the most expensive potions you can create? I cant find it

I've been wandering aimlessly with my new Mage character.

I just stumbled on some hot chick in her undies hanging out spread eagle in a hot spring. I thought she was dead but she was just hanging out half nekid in a hot spring.

The Honorable Death Orc one hits my poor Mage at the moment.

Any high level mages out there? what do you use for armor?

I wonder how much wearing light armor would hurt my overall mage skill.

There might be better lists out by now. I haven't looked since I made that one.

That link is a great tool for making useful potions once you have finished leveling to 100.

It gives you the ingredients needed to make any pot.

I had a similar puzzle not spinning glitch. Not in Saarthal, but the door in Bleak Falls Barrow. The remedy was to reload or run back to the nearest area entry door, leave and come back

I had that glitch too and leaving and coming back in worked.

I've been stuck between rocks a few times in dungeons which forced reloads.

Also after 180 hours my game save was so slow, I finally quit. Hopefully they fix this but I doubt it is high priority.

I know the location.

Bleakwind Basin, just in case.

Just curious how I do it. Just stand there and start casting spells?

There's a hill overlooking the camp, and from that high point you should see a pillar you can jump to. If you attack a mammoth, it will run up to the top of the hill facing you but then not be able to get into melee range, so you can just nuke it all day. The giants, on the other hand, seem to stand way back since they know they can't get to you. You can still fill them with arrows or ice spikes just as easily, though.

I would attack the mammoths just to aggro them and the giants first, then start leveling whatever non-attack spells you have, then kill everything in the camp once you're satisfied. It's a cheap exploit, but alteration/illusion and some other skills can be slow to level the normal way.

Where is bleakwind basin located? Which direction from a major city?

The mammoths won't stay close enough to where I can tee off on them, they keep running away

I've been hit by the Companion storyline glitch on PS3. Sucks as that was one of my favorite storylines, and it doesn't seem to be fixable on consoles.

That's about right.. at least the apprentice perk in illusion so you can use muffle more effectively (unless you just plan on wearing the shrouded/nightingale boots). How did you screw it up the first time? Too many magic skills? I did the same thing with my mage. Just my opinion, but I don't think a lot of spells in the alteration/restoration families are that useful.

you have to lead them a bit - either north to silent moons camp, where there is a stone "hut" where they can't touch you, or west (?) toward a bridge where you can hide underneath and giants can't reach you.
