Nyff 0 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Finally feeling I'm not quite a high enough level to be where I am right now.

Was finding them pretty tricky at level 10 but I just backed off, summoned a flame atronach and blasted them with my firebolt spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyff 0 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 That explains it then! Only just turned level 8. Now I'm in some dungeon somewhere and probably going to be surrounded by lots of things I can't really kill before long... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyff 0 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 That said, with a couple of defensive tactics I can maybe survive. Had to save the game so I could go get ready for tonight, but am going to try and get through this dungeon type place on pure fluke alone before I go off and level up my destruction spells or whatever else. My fire atronach seems to knock a fair bit of health off the dwarven spheres but I don't seem to do the same damage...Wondering if using my arrows instead would be more effective...

trophyshy 6434 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 (edited) The serpent stone power is canny mint for one on ones, poisons them and downs them for 5 seconds, just long enough to get a couple of massive blows in with your two handed cranium smasher.

Gemmill 34604 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I don't even know if I've particularly enjoyed it, but I've lost nearly 4 hours of my life playing this tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trophyshy 6434 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Â The enjoyment increases as you get more powerful. Â I just got this staff that fires lightning and utterly decimates foes. NERDPOWER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34604 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Aye I'm looking forward to getting a bit more nails. Played another hour and a half this morning and have made my way to that magician's college. Am i gonna like it (not a lot)? Â It's probably just me not being used to this type of game, but I wish it autosaved more regularly. I've fallen foul of getting killed and having to replay a good 10minutes of the game a couple of times, which has led to me saving all the time, which kind of takes away from the immersive aspect of the game. Like I say though, it's probably just how this type of game works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much quicker than cycling through the menu. But you can't do it if enemies are near by. Or it autosaves when you enter a new location, house etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 31 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I've been plodding on with Sword n Board but I think Ill move away from that. quite like the idea of having a 1H weapon and casting with the free hand. Still early enough in the game to change. though the shield has been handy like. Still only L5 as well, working for the companions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I'm sure you've all been missing my guides on how to play this game the right way but I've been in Glasgow, some parts of which look a bit like Riften. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Giving this a break for a bit because I'm enjoying Driver San Francisco a lot more, I'm sad to say. I think I'm getting overwhelmed by the sheer amount of quests I have on my plate so going to take care of them all first and then continue on. I've still not touched the main quest and I've been playing for 17 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4226 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Done the mage college and the companions.  Think i've inadvertently pissed off the blackhand crowd, got a note saying "WE KNOW" after i killed off some child abusing bint  now to be a thief  youve most certainly not pissed them off, go and have a sleep somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4226 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 wrapped up the Mages and DB lines so far, got the first of the thieves sitting in my log at the moment which I'll get round to eventually and done a chunk of the Main questline too, not done much for the companions either yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34604 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Couple of things. Firstly, how important is it to get mixed up in smithing and mining? It's such a faff on. Â Also, how important is it to pick up everything you come across? Say if I kill a load of people, i'm obsessed with taking everything off them. Am I wasting my time cos constantly having to fast travel backwards and forwards to store stuff is taking some enjoyment out of the game. If I just focus on playing the quests, will I accumulate enough wealth etc to enjoy it? Â Also, I didn't know what to do with all the stuff, so I stored it in a chest in an inn. However, this chest isn't mine, so every time I take something out a guard turns up to arrest me. What's the correct solution to storing stuff?

Sonatine 10007 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 You don't need smithing tbh, it's just an easy way to get better weapons and armour early on. Handy to be able to upgrade them too, but you can skip it easily enough. I never had any cash problems just by questing, just loot the stuff that sells well and leave the crap behind. Best way to store stuff is to buy yourself a house in one of the major cities, think the cheapest one is 5000 gold in Whiterun. Just need to be well in with the Jarls before they offer one for sale.

Gemmill 34604 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Nice one cheers. I best go back and let the Jarl know that I laced that dragon then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34604 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Oh also, if I have something like some grand staff of destruction but my character is mainly focused on stoving heads in, can I just sell the staff. And who buys them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonatine 10007 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 (edited) Think its magic sellers that buy stuff like that, the guys that sell spells and stuff. Or a general goods vendor, think they buy just about anything. Edited November 21, 2011 by Sonatine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
