  • How to make a brokenly OP character in Daggerfall Unity.
    Creating an OP custom class, becoming a lycanthrope (to become even more OP) and obtaining the Hircine Ring immediately after leaving the starting dungeon.
    -- Character creation --
    Primary skills:
    Long Blade - If you prefer a different type of melee weapon, you can probably substitute this for a different one without it necessarily mattering much once you get a weapon of the right type.
    Destruction - Very useful for many situations - especially early-game when your melee weapon is of a low material type that is ineffective against some enemies.
    Critical Strike - Gains skill increases quickly with no effort, speeding up leveling
    Major skills:
    Restoration - Healing spells are extremely useful pretty much always.
    Stealth, Jumping - Basically useless, but these gain skill increases quickly and with very little effort, speeding up leveling.
    Minor skills:
    Mysticism - Useful for reducing cost of spells such as Recall, but doesn't really gain skill quickly, hence why I put it in minor skills instead of major.
    Running - Useless, but gains skill increases quickly and effortlessly as you run around, speeding up leveling.
    Everything else is largely irrelevant, and you can pick other stuff if you like. I just picked the stuff I thought to be least useless.

      I never played this before until today and I'm 30. Currently emulating the original game natively from my LogicTech G Cloud.
      I made a Knight and was really good with the long sword. Was one hit killing some enemies. Might start over and get an Archer. Heard ill need some sort of ranged weapon towards end game.

      Yeah, it would undoubtedly look ridiculous from an NPC's point of view. Bunny-jumping is pretty common in many games, for various reasons though. In Daggerfall it actually happens to be useful as a way to quickly boost the jumping skill, and therefore leveling.

    I use to end my bank run in Waridge, Tulune, where there is a bank just a few steps from the coven house on the west edge of town. That said, Tulune is small so you tend to get a short time limit on the quest, so in that regard Daggerfall is better.

    • @forbjok
      @forbjok  Рік тому

      Very strange. What happens when you talk to him? Do you not get the option to summon daedra at all, or is it just that it fails?
      If it's just failing, it's normal that that can happen, which is why I quicksaved before doing the daedra summon. That way, if it fails you can just reload and try again, since it's just random. When recording this video I got lucky and got it first try, so I didn't need to.
      I've had some very rare cases where no matter how many times I reloaded. the daedra summoning would fail, but in that case I was able to work around it by just leaving the city, traveling somewhere else to pass a bit of time and then immediately traveling back and trying again. Most of the time it will either succeed immediately, or in 1-2 reloads max without needing to travel.

      @@633sky So you don't even get the "Daedra summoning" option? That's very strange then. I've never seen that. I don't think it has anything to do with which day you talk to him either. I've done it at various points in the game in many different playthroughs, and I've never seen him not give the option to summon daedra. Are you using any mods that could be altering NPCs?
      And yes, this build is already strong without lycanthropy. Lycanthropy just pushes the character from very strong to brokenly OP.

    • @Kelsper
      @Kelsper 9 місяців тому

      So I found out the reason for this. It's because you are probably using the Unofficial Block Location and Model fixes mod, and this fixes numerous bugs with the game that are to do with setting faction ids to certain NPCs. That mod is kinda like an unofficial patch for Daggerfall so I've seen it recommended often.
      The guy here is incorrectly set as part of the Witches/Coven faction, therefore without this mod you can summon freely. I was able to disable the mod and then summon. Failing that, you can use the "summondaedra HIRCINE" command in console to force it as well.

      If your copperbitch isn't a daedra summoner, it's because it's random every new game. It just means you rolled a bad seed unfortunately, My advice, scope around tunely . Usually has 3 or 4 daedra summoners. If that fails, just restart lmao.

    Great build. My only noob question is how the heck do you pay back all that money in time? Or do they give you a lot of time to pay it back?

    • @forbjok
      @forbjok  7 місяців тому

      Strictly speaking, you don't need to pay it back at all, but there's a pretty good chance if you just keep collecting and selling stuff that drops from enemies, you'll have more than enough gold to repay them by the end of the game. The higher level you are, the more likely materials like daedric and orcish will be to drop, and those sell for huge amounts of gold. Obviously, if you just go through the main quest and don't pay attention to how much time you're spending, it will be somewhat down to luck whether you end up with enough gold before the limit runs out, so if you're getting close to the time limit you may want to just grind out the rest in nearby dungeons. That should be doable easily either way, since you'll probably be pretty high level by that time.
      If I just bum rush the main quest and don't do any optional quests, I'm usually around level 12 when I finish it, and if I do a more casual playthrough where I also do all the optional "main" quests, I'm easily 17 or so by the end of the game.

    Do you need to be a lycanthrope (be infected with the disease) to be able to use this ring and enjoy its benefits?

    • @forbjok
      @forbjok  4 місяці тому +1

      Yes, if you are not a lycanthrope the ring doesn't do anything. The only thing it does in the first place is to remove the downsides associated with lycanthropy, such as having to hunt an NPC periodically to avoid losing HP, or being transformed automatically sometimes.
      Being a lyanthrope is just as OP without the ring, it's just slightly less convenient since you'd have to deal with those things occasionally.

      @@semnome8407 At 27:52 I get the "You dream of the moon" cutscene while resting after letting myself get hit by the wereboar, which confirms that I've got lycanthropy. Once you get that cutscene, all you need to do is wait a certain amount of time without curing the disease for it to take effect.
      You can even see that at 29:40, just after I equip the ring, I still haven't gained any attribute bonuses.
      At 29:48, I travel to Daggerfall "cautiously" just to pass enough time for the disease to activate, and then at 29:58 you can see that it has taken effect and boosted STR, AGI, END and SPD to 100.
      The ring has nothing to do with the stat increases at all, it only removes some of the annoying side effects of lycanthropy.

      Most of them are just cosmetic (Better Ambience, Dynamic Skies, Vanilla Enhanced) or UI improvements. (UncannyUI, Hotkey Bar, World Tooltips)
      The only one that could have some impact on character development is LevelUp Adjuster, which I just have configured to remove level-up RNG.
      It shouldn't be doing anything that isn't possible in the vanilla game, and most likely the impact of not having it would be relatively insignificant.
      Level-up RNG is just one of those things that irk me in games, so whenever possible I get rid of it.
