The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Dawnguard Trailer Released

Camel · November 29, 2011

My bow and arrows do quite a lot. not sure how much but I think it's around the 100 area. Not maxed my archery skill yet either.

I'll probably play through as a mage one day.

Ozzmcom · November 29, 2011

my magicka problem is solved by completing the quests of the winterhold college as they've given me the robe of the arch mage and my magicka recovers in 15 secs. Also I have my own room there now and they're treating me like a god :P.

Camel · November 29, 2011

There's something you can get from there which reduces spell cost by 25%. You can disenchant it and enchant your armour with it so you can cast spells without magicka going down at all.

Ozzmcom · November 29, 2011

I'm already wearing arch mage's armour which is valued at 3500, maybe I can enchant the boots with that , what's it called?

Camel · November 30, 2011

School of magicka or something. I don't have it myself but I've read about it.

For those that play this game often, I'd recommend getting TESV Acceleration Layer. You will also need SKSE (Skyrim Script Extender).

This mod makes CPU intensive areas of the game much more smooth in just about every area of the game.

All you PC players make me sad... I wish my PC could run Skyrim! But my Xbox sure can. :D

GTAMADDOG · January 2, 2012

Any tips for a newbie to this? Bought this on Steam today and having only previously played Oblivion for the best part of 30 minutes before my Xbox broke and even then I didn't know what I was supposed to be doing. I'm just after any hints/tips on what to do and what not to do, any particular classes worth choosing, etc?

I'll probably spend more time taking in the scenery rather than doing quests :p

iLLGT3 · January 2, 2012

Find a race you like and start playing. The game is much more balanced than Oblivion when it comes to races. Just listen to every detail of quests and enjoy.

When you go into towns for the first time, you will see these "live cut scenes" (as I call them) where an argument (usually) will be taking place. Just stand there and listen to them and usually you can offer some assistance/input on the situation the NPC's are discussing and maybe pick up a quest or two.

So I've put about 150 hours into Skyrim - and I'm almost out of things to do, I have a few more deadric artifacts to get and I need the rest of the stones of Benzeriah (sp?) and I'm pretty much done. I'd like some DLC to be announced...

Camel · January 3, 2012

Nah, you'll have loads left to do, you just need to find the stuff!

There are always quests to do as they are randomly generated although some may get a bit repetitive after a while.

iLLGT3 · January 3, 2012

Time for a new character!! Try a different play style.. Use only magic.. Only hand to hand.. there's tons of things left to do..There's a guy who received some popularity for making NPC's fight for him. (can't find the link) Or, command children to fight for you.

Not much left lol... I've done soooo many side quests I've run out.

command children to fight for you[/url].

I have 3 characters... all different play styles... :D I'm keeping myself entertained however.

Got 100 smithing yesterday and im currently finding Daedra hearts for the Daedric equipment :) I have the armor, boots, helmet so far

Camel · January 31, 2012

Buy them in Alchemy shops. Much easier.

Beav · February 1, 2012

Yeah I have to wait a while for them. They normally say wait 48 hours but sometimes the hearts are still not in stock then. I do travel to major towns for them.

iLLGT3 · February 7, 2012

The creation kit has been released and a 3GB texture pack from Bethesda has also been release along side..

I agree. I wish my PC ran Skyrim. v_v

iLLGT3 · February 12, 2012

The game is still not fully optomised yet though. I computer should have no problem at all running it yet sometimes the game hangs, stutters, and it does not support CrossFire and ATi have probably already quit trying to make it work. :(
