Greetings Wizards! Your boy is back and with one of his longest vids to date! 🧙♂ *FAQs* Q: Can't you scale the mountainside to reach Volsung without having to enter Volskygge? 🧙♂ Indeed you can! I forgot to mention this and is a much easier and faster way of obtaining the Volsung mask. Q: Doesn’t the Greater Power, “Highborn”, allow Altmers to increase their rate of magicka regeneration by 25x for 60 seconds once per day, not 25%? 🧙♂️ Quite right! Apologies for the error - have been playing a Nord for far too long 😅 Q: Can't the Dragon Priest Masks be worn with a Falmer Helmet for increased armor and additional enchantments? 🧙♂ Indeed they can! Dragon Priest Masks with a low base armor rating like Morokei will benefit the most, but all masks will benefit from additional enchantments. You could have a total of 5 enchantments on your head alone! The Falmer helmet can also be equipped and worn at the same time as any circlet, Penitus Oculatus helmet, and the Masque of Clavicus Vile. Q: Isn’t Volsung tempered with a Corundum Ingot? 🧙♂️ Oops! Yes, that’s quite right! It’s not tempered by Ebony Ingots but by Corundum Ingots. Q: What mod list are you using? 🧙♂️ That would be Septimus - Anniversary Edition Extended from Wabbajack.
To be fair they are thousands of years old. King Author was said to hold the greatest weapon known to man but you throw a nuke his way and suddenly that sword doesn't look so impressive.
@@AspenBrightsoul Yeah but Skyrim hasn't advanced like that, its been pretty static in terms of technology and magical power for thousands of years. I mean the Dwarves were coming up with steam power and automatons but they blew themselves up real good and that whole thing ended
@Christopher Taylor Actually magical "technology" is increasingly common amongst the more common folk, maybe not so much in Skyrim but we see in Morrowind that more and more reasurch has been put into improvements to the point they are novel. Like how every slaver has a load of shakles with a magic draning effect, and hell in Oblivion the main marketplace has a store that will teach you a magic spell for cheaper than a decent sword. The rest of the world is steadily advancing, I mean maybe less so now that the mages guild disolved, but still. Skyrim is a bit of a magic backwash.
@That Pleb Wouldve been neat to have them have powers/spells tied to the stories behind the priests (at least for the ones that have one...). Like Morokei could let you sap magicka from enemies like he does throughout the dungeon, Ahzidal could give you a combination fury, calm, and rally spell that makes enemies friendly to you like how he mind controls Ralis, etc.
Here's a tip that Makes Volsung even better: Go to Volsyygg, Go to the left of the dungeon entrance (outside), go up the side of the hill. You can walk right up the side of the hill directly to the Word Wall and Dragon Priest, skipping the entire dungeon. And I've noticed that if you start hitting him with a melee weapon as soon as he exits his coffin and then keep wailing on him, he just _doesn't_ attack you.
i didn't even know that volsung was connected to a dungeon, i've always kind of just ended up skyrimming my way up there following the dragon roost marker.
Thanks to the AE there is a ring called "Denstagmer's ring". That ring add a +20% resistance to frost, shock or fire damage. Combining with the mask of Otar you'll get a 50% resistance to all the 3 elements
I prefer the warlocks ring the health regeneration boost and slight movement speed boost is nice but it’s the fact I get a ward when I block that sells it and said ward stacks with spellbreakers and is effected by the ward absorb perk it all really helps against pesky mages and dragons that refuse to land
That plus the Imperial Dragon armor in the AE for the Civil War mod adds ANOTHER 30% to each element. So that's 80%, almost the cap. There is another ring that does magic resistance in general and shock resistance, so that might be better.
i believe the wooden mask takes you to a pocket dimension ancient dragon priests wouldn't of needed a time traveling mask; but a pocket dimension to hide a mask they wanted forgotten does make sense.
Yeah, that seems the most likely theory and also so that the sanctuary would stand the test of time, for access to an eternal shrine where the final mask was never out of reach
Maybe it didn't go back in time back then. It's not named so it could have been unfinished. Alduin crashing in the current era from the past made a sort of bridge. The unfinished mask absorbs the energy of the bridge and takes you back to the day he left. There is no owner of the wooden mask, it was always meant for the dragonborn.
I will say, the masks become a lot more useful in Survival mode, since they often handle problems that are introduced by the new rules, or make them easier to deal with. Also, Morokei and Konahrik are my favorite masks.
I remember seeing your vids fly through my recs for a bit now but since I've been playing Skyrim myself again recently I decided to finally click in and I gotta say - very worth it! Good voice, good editing, good script for this one in general and the fact that you've been including captions for a long time is very appreciated! Definitely gonna be checking in more.
So many people asking about mods and debating builds, meanwhile I'm just happy that my favourite mask was the highest ranked mask outside of Konahrik. Volsung FTW!
Spellbreaker is amazing! One of my favourite Daedric Artifacts 🛡️ I’ll plug Daedric Artifacts Ranked here (for those who haven’t seen): ua-cam.com/video/t42uzCBT25c/v-deo.html
@@theWelshWizard Yeah, and the Daedric Prince isn’t gonna take your soul to his realm of Oblivion when you die. Probably one of the only Daedric Quests I’ll do without feeling bad my character doesn’t get to enjoy an eternity in Sovngarde.
I'm genuinely surprised that the DB masks don't rank higher. Not only are those resists pretty clutch on higher difficulties, they contribute to the absurd damage of the new Elemental Blast spells.
Also that shock was lowest. Dragons are either 50 to frost or flame. Nothing resists lightning (aside from named dragons, who resist all equally), only 4 enemies, two of which are 1-location only, are immune. And removing magicka from dragons stops breath attacks or shouts. It’s also the easiest to hit due to being hitscan. Sure, few things use it, but aside from enchantments, you got nothing to reduce it. No race gains resistence, unlike frost or flame.
It's a stupid list. Stuff like +20% bow damage on a mask with barely useful skills you could enchant better on other gear? (Like who the Hell goes adventuring with their potion making gear?). Compared to elemental damage resist/buffs? Sure most 'builds' can dabble in potion making but you don't need a dragon mask for that. @@samakiraroyjanssen6326
Last time i commented that you cant convince me to play Skyrim again, and here i am, playing it for 2 months already. Again. And also subscribed to you, great content and like your character.
A thought on Hevnoraak. I've not gotten it yet to test it on my current playthrough, but potentially, immunity (85% resistance) to disease DAMAGE might actually make it a much more interesting pick if playing with mods. Assuming it actually resists it, which it may not. Disease damage in general is a very, very difficult resistance to get normally, as well as tons of stuff just not getting it, since it's, to my knowledge, just not available in base Skyrim. It's still probably not a fantastic mask in that context, but might be a great thing to just carry, in case. On a side note, one of my most fun times in Skyrim has been just becoming a mask collector. Lots of mods add masks, and just accumulating them, putting them on display, ect is surprisingly enjoyable experience. Lots are just recolors of the wooden mask, sadly, but there's impressive variety out there, too.
With the running Tip at 6:32 just keep a dagger on you and a torch you hold the torch and dagger then put your dagger away and you can sprint forever it’s called the Olympic Torch strat
@@theWelshWizard ya though looking back on it my wording was not perfect you start running with the dagger and torch then as your mid sprint you put the dagger away and you can keep endless sprint as long as you never go backwards or take super a sharp turn
@@Jango_Thicc your stamina will look like it’s going down and it is but when it runs out you won’t start panting and stand still you will just keep running
@@RinSyuveil That’s really good to know. But on console it looks like my character is running slower when I sheath a weapon while I am sprinting, is that just an fov change making it “look” like im going slower or is my speed actually decreased with the exchange of infinite sprint
I personally prefer using garlic bread over cure disease potions they only weigh 0.1 each whereas potions weigh 0.5 (meaning you can carry 5 pieces for the same weight as 1 potion) plus they heal 1 hp lol you just need a homestead with an oven (or any place with an oven I have no clue about anything beyond the legendary edition on the ps3) a full loaf of bread garlic and butter and it gives 2 each time
21:44 here is a tip from when I was adventuring, Nahkriin won't actually attack you before he gets his staff so, all you have to do is block him with your body and hit him while he tries to get his staff
Another well made video from the wizard, before this I never thought to combine frost and shock to take advantage of their effects, this might inspire a new play through
there was a theory that Kohnarik was supposed to be your mask by birthright as your the heir to the Dragon bloodline (Youd dont needa be a Septim to be the dragonborn
One question, and out of curiosity. What mod did you use for the dragon priest mask being on your charcter's hip 27:54 into the video? It looks awesome!
That poison & disease resistance one actually is my default headgear when travelling. Because it's always annoying when meanwhile you've reached maximum armor cap, but easily got disease by one bite of a bear, wolf, or damn skeaver ambushing. Same with vampire. Their spell always get me disease like every time. When entering a battle, especially against dragon or wizards, Otar is my top equipment. But it's just me who like playing the orthodox two handed tank warrior. Like that old guard said, "Best offence is a good defence, am I right?!" Btw, I like how you deliver enough information, straight to the point, but not forget to give a bit trivial joke. Good content. Safe travel, land strider. May your road lead you to cloud district very often.
Combining the Kohnarik mask with a pair of those temple priest robes from the priests in Raven Rock, Solstheim, makes for solid dragon priest look. Since the robes already come with a 75% boost in magicka regeneration enchantment, they cannot be enchanted any further... however, you can still enchant a pair of gloves, shoes, a necklace and a ring for total of 8 extra enchantments.
Rank all possible stewards. Then perhaps one day all followers and or marriage candidates. The pool of choices for stewards is probably perfect for video length and I’ve yet to see someone else do a banger video on that but I know The Wizard can!
“Argonians have an innate 50% resistance to disease” I started a new survival playthrough last night as an Argonian and contracted Rock Joint from the third wolf I met after river wood.
I expected the poison resist helmet to be closer to the top slot due to how difficult it is to get poison resistance outside racials and poison resistance potions, and how hard poisons scale at the higher levels. immunity to magic and melee are self explanatory, but dealing with poisons is rough up until you get Hevvy.
I have hard time choosing for my numbear one spot between Ahzidal, Nahkriin, and Konahrik Dragon Priest Masks. Ahzidal mask will even grand you small bonus to the enchanting if you wear his set special of armor (I am not using any game breaking glitches to create broken items). Nahkriin mask is really good for spellsword build, or mages wearing heavy armor. Konahrik mask works really well for warrior builds, and bonus points for the design.
Yeah it's a shame that its abilities are reactive instead of proactive. If you could trigger them in the same way you would use a dragon shout it would probably have been alot better
Otar’s my favorite mask for a hyper tank build, heavy armor masks count towards the heavy armor material set bonus of daedric armors, and with enchantments on my daedric armor and the fact that helmets cant be enchanted with resistances means I get the most resist-related enchants on all armor pieces and jewelry for a 80%+ resist on all 3 elements + a 20% magic resist ring. I could go further but I kept some enchants for two handed and heavy armor bonuses
I was angry about the whole Dragon Priest shrine, because I worked my butt off painstakingly locating and clearing the dungeons and nearly dying several times to get ahold of all eight masks (on Skyrim) then I had to walk all the way back to Labyrinthian, and once I placed all the dragon priest masks on their respective busts, Bethesda has the audacity to not even give me an achievement for it!
"can be upgraded with the daedric smithing perk" started to get meme able near the end, i would suggest say all can be upgraded with the perk with exceptions (then name them as they come up). still a great video :D
I find the Dragonborn DLC masks far better than the other base game masks given it has the only bonus destruction damage enchantment while the rest can be replaced with other armor or enchantments like the increase magicka and regen ones are useless once you wear multiple armor pieces that each have 25%~ lower magic cost in x school of magic. Elemental resists are also an enchantment you can get and have a higher % in by just doing the enchanting yourself
my ranking would be slightly different. volsung > ahzidal/dukaan/vahlo > krosis > morokei > nahkriin/vokun > rahgot/miraak > otar > konahrik > hevnoraak volsung is far and away the most useful imo. its a lightweight waterbreathing enchantment that also gives you better prices and carry weight, so any character can make use of it. whether its throwing it on to sell things, to swim, or to grab a few extra pieces of loot. water breathing doesnt really have much use in skyrim tho, sadly, especially without underwater combat. the dlc mage mask are all really good and help spells lack of scaling for their specific elements. krosis is just a good general ranger type mask, or for potion crafting. making lockpicking easier it just a bonus. morokei is just a good general mage type mask, unlike the rest of the mage mask, which require you to be more specialized. nahkriin and vokin are both good for their respective schools. the remaining mask are generally only good if you ignore enchanting imo. rahgot if you use stam/enjoy power attacks, miraak if you use mana. otar can be really good early on, specifically if you have a racial resist, but otherwise enchanting can easily replace this once its maxed out. konahrik is very underwhelming for me, bc if im low enough to proc it, im probably dead, or its just faster to use a heal spell/potion. it does however work really well with restorations avoid death perk, and it does look really cool. im just not a fan of low hp RNG procs myself, when i could use another helm and have its effect 24/7 while also staying healthy. hevnoraak, last and certainly least. vampire OR werewolf form both grant you 100% disease immunity, with werewolf only taking away the rested bonus. the only value this mask has is if you dont plan to do either, then its actually pretty good. i almost always just become a werewolf for the disease immunity, even if i never use the werewolf form myself, so i view this mask as completely useless. this was a neato vid tho, thank you.
i love skyrim. I've been playing it for over forty hours, for the first time ever, and i have the krosis mask without even realizing how cool it is or what a dragon priest is. there's so much I haven't yet seen !!
If you use Dukaan with a Stalhrim weapon that has a Chaos enchant and a frost enchant Both Dukaan and Stalhrim will boost both of those enchantments by 25% for a total 50% damage boost
My Favorites are Nahkriin (great for heavy armored Mage builds), Hevnoraak (great for non-vampires and non-werewolves), and any of the three Elemental ones (for those elementally themed character).
And if you like Dragon Priest Masks? There's mod for Dragon Priest Armory, with each Priest coming with their custom armor too! Heck, if you want you can just go find a Clay Mask and enter another time, and craft your own armor too. Including a Hearthstone Armor, that has Enchantment Boost, and real epic black and red shade... Konahrik's Accountrements.
The reason why Otar does not have a translation is because, its shown that the name of the dragon priest who beard the mask was Otar the mad, or its because the common language does not have words for it, Parthuunax has confirmed that the language of the dovah is more detailed than the common
Water breathing is also an excellent skill for escaping guards if you happen to get caught being naughty... so i hear. Obviously I wouldn't have any firsthand experience with such things, or outstanding bounties. I'm obviously just a law abiding citizen that enjoys long underwater swims upriver.
As the mask of The First Dragonborn, Miraak had many possibilities. Like perhaps... an extra daily use of "Mul Qah Diiv!" A simple magicka increase is incredibly lame.
I love vokun. The combination of bound bow plus invisibility and silent casting perk plus slowtime shout buffed by stability is a build many already did. This mask helps alot in that. It also helps you being a necromancer that can buff the zombies/summons with courage thanks to the perk that alows you to use ilusion perks on undead, and paralyze is always useful. The mask is just so useful The elemental mask are also very good, althought very niche. Best to worst are, for me, fire, shock and frost. Fire for the spell on ahzidal ring and shock form boosting the Kamehameha
This is why I prefer mods that buff the Dragon Priest masks so that they feel like unique, powerful items and not just "well i can get a better one by making it"
Bit of a nitpick here, as it isn't very important, but Volsung is upgraded with a corundum ingot, not an ebony ingot. bit more accessible, which adds to the mask's appeal. :) great video btw! will definitely be checking out your other stuff :D
I remember there was a conjuring book you could get via the console thing that gave you a spell to summon dragon priests. Those dragon priests, in turn, summoned two of those giant lightning elementals. It was glorious. 😁
If you have the UESP, the value of Morokei suddenly shoots up drastically. In conjunction with an Amulet of Talos and a Blessing of Talos, as well as Dragon Aspect, it allows you to just about spam shouts. Some standouts include things like permanent invincibility via Become Ethereal, practically permanent Slow Time, and the ability to ride Odahviing or summon two Odahviings (by allowing the shout bar to regenerate before he's gone).
Bit late but you can also grab the Ring of the Erudite, which increases your base magicka regen by 2, which means it multiplies with most other magicka regenerating items.
Otar is actually really good, due to the fact that elemental resistance is applied seperately from magic resistance. So, with 85% magic resist, you can reduce incoming magic damage by 85%, 30% elemental resistance will reduce your damage taken by 30% of that damage. Coupled with the fact that helmets don't have any real useful custom enchantment slots for pure warriors, Otar is probably among the best pieces to use as one.
Yeah, elemental resistance combined with magic resistance can grant you a max resistance of 97.75% in one element. But a much easier way of achieving full resistance to magic (as well as to a whole lot more) is through absorb magicka. 100% absorb magicka means no damage to you and a well supplied magicka bar when versing spell casters and dragons 🔥
@@theWelshWizard My tops would be otar or hevnoraak. From the perspective of a melee fighter. Breton (or alteration perk 3)+ agent of mara + lord stone + shield of ysgramor gives you 85% magic resist. The fishing ring and otar give you 50% so I believe that makes it 92.5%? I am going to assume the wiki is correct on damage and the ancient dragon has the highest spell damage with fireball/ice storm of 200 damage. That would be 600 damage on legendary. That would leave the damage at 45. It hurts, but I'd say a warrior should easily have 300+ hp by the time they fight ancient dragons means it shouldn't be but 15% of total hp. The physical attacks of ancient+ do something like 600-900dmg...which is still 45-68dmg so avoid that. Train archery. Assuming the wiki is accurate. Idk. Mages would do less magic damage than a dragon. I don't care much for absorb Magicka because having to wear a couple pieces of miraak set I feel is too limiting. hevnoraak is invaluable. Unless you find a poison immunity asap, it might be your only way to get that resist poison besides being a vampire. A basic falmer does 15 poison damage and a warmonger does 36 poison damage unresisted per second for 3-4sec. It stacks. The damage is insane on legendary. An arrow and sword strike would kill a character with base hp. God forbid you get hit with a third arrow. That would do upwards of 200dmg with the arrow/sword damage taken into account. I don't go anywhere near falmer without poison resist.
I think that Krosis should rank on top (from a glass mage main) cuz konahrik is just to situational and you have to work rly hard to get it, and on Volsung, in all my playthroughs in skyrim i have never drowned or even got close to it, the carry enchantment aint rly much if you can sort your inventory and the price enchantmen isnt that big since you end up hoarding gold i all playthroughs. While Krosis gives bonus to archery (still most popular build) alchemy which is just good if you dont wanna spend so much on potions, and lockpicking which is just the cherry on top.
Maybe i just dont play skyrim enough to understand the "meta" way of things but i genuinely expected morokei to be at least on the top half of the list. An easy to get 100% magika regen is pretty good. Especially as you can combine it with the arch mage robes youpl be getting very soon afterwar the fact. Like, to me i always viewed magic regen as a very good thing in more or less all cases but maybe not
Wish you uploaded more such good videos idk if you remmeve what I told you last time but it's okay life gets crazy sometimes but dahm u could always be 1 video away from blowing up
I main as mage in ES games so Morokei is always my first go to as well as the entire Winterhold college questline. First thing I do to get my starting mage equipment. If I'm on PC, I kill Marcurio for his awesome robes but will resurrect him cause he's my fav NPC in game and always marry him lol
@TheWelshWizard I've made an attempt at improving on the masks existing effects and giving them unique new ones to make them match more to their power in the lore, as I feel like some of them were abit of a let down and by that I mean they were either to situational or the bonus was to weak, or you yourself could make a better enchanted item. To begin with MIRACK, the biggest letdown. Instead of its usual ability it has a one per day power to A give you an additional magic bar (that cannot be refilled my potions) and increased the strength of all your Spells. The size of the magic bar and the increased strength starts of as a mid buff but increases in strength depending on the number and strength of dragon's you kill while wearing it, OR you can use spare drsgon souls u have on you to increase this. The buff has no set duration but expires when your new magic bars are empty. Also after the ability is used or if you were to next use it, the strength of the ability re-sets. (This ability is to fit in to the dragon born theme and gives use to the spare dragon souks u woukd have late game.) Next is my personal favourite, OTAR. Although it's already good, my suggestion would be to remove it's default effect and instead give it a permanently activate passive skill where it has a 30% chance to fully obsorbe a fire, frost or shock Spell and then redirect that attack to your nearest enemy. Next for Hevnorak. It has the once per day ability to, when below 50% health, place sould trap on all nearby enemies and then use an AoE life steal, with the amount of health stolen increasing depending on how low you HP is. This Mask also will upgrade empty grand soul gems to empty black soul gems. This and Ragots abilities fit in with their lore and quests of them sacrificing others in order to become immortal, or in Hevnorak's case, stealing his subjects minds and souls. Now Speaking of RAGOT, in addition to it's usual enchantment, they also have a once per day AoE stamina steal, which then will also temporarily increase your swing and movement speed based on the number of enemies affected. Now I've forgotten the name of this mask, rated number 2, meaning Horror. (First of all I'd like to disagree with your placing of this mask as although it is versatile, chances are u already have individual gear or potions that are better). So, the mask still keeps the increased speach but also has the passive ability where when an enemies HP drops below a certain fresh hold (50 and 25%), to become parylized for 5 seconds OR a 15% chance to become frenzied and turn hostile to other enemies (will default to paralysis if no other enemies). Now for MOROKI, in addition to the 100% magica regen, it allows ward Spells to obsorbe physical hits (not sure if they do that already and if it does, than it increases the amount of damage negated instead and decreeses their cost), and using a ward at the very last moment a charged Spell would hit u staggers nearby enemies and will refill part of you mana bar. Furthermore, it also increases the power of staffs in your hand and reduces soul gem depletion rate. (Again, this fits with his quest, with him being trapped in an impenetrable ward). Now VOKUN has a few abilities that replace it's normal one. It increases the duration of your conduration and alteration Spells and gives you the ability (every 7 seconds, to pay stamina and magica)to either teleport a small distance in a particular direction (using the purple conjuration Summoning animation). OR B, you switch places with your achranoch summon and any enemies near where your switch places to become staggered (I don't know which of the two would fit better). Now for NAKRIN. It now only has it's destruction cost reduction but instead gives a passive effect that boosts the strength of your destruction Spells that works similar to Mirak's. The strength of the buff starts of weak but has a way to be increased over time, also it has no set duration that the buff expires. It empowers your destruction Spells a little bit after each time you cast them, but the strength of the buff deminishes when you use a HP or MP potions OR resets entirely when you would switch to using a Spell from another school of magic, or use a weapon, excluding staffs. Now I wasn't sure what to do for KROSIS as my suggest buff may seem abit bland in comparison to the rest as it's already good, BUT it has its usually effect, but the strength of its enchantment is increased to 30%, also potions and poisons are now waitless and the weight of stolen goods are halved. It also increases your movement speed while sneaking. And now for the big boy KONARICK 1st of all it REMOVES THE ABILITY FOR YOUR CHARACTER TO RECEIVE AN INSTANT DEATH ANIMATION, or to be killed by a single hit because those are bullshit in my op and u have more of a chance of receiving one than this masks effect procking at low HP. 2ndly, the chances of each of its default effects procking has been increases to a 30% chance for the heath when health drops bellow 50 and 25%, AND has a 15% to Summon a dragon priest. And 3rdly, instead of it granting the fire cloak, which in my op is to weak of a Spell, it instead unlocks you the ability for 10 seconds to cast a master level Spell ignoring its magic cost. This ability then has a cooldown and will default to the heal incase it would prock again. Boy, that's alot of text, I don't think I've missed one. Now if someone for some reason decide to read this far than thnk you. Also, I'd love to read any feedback of my suggested changes, if possible, as I like talking about shit like this from games 😅
I got morokei. My Dragonborn is a Nord Battlemage that Dual Weilds a dagger and a mace. He wears light armor and is very quick on his feet. He gets a very good damage output and ennemies can't catch him. He changes his dagger to spells often. Armor isn't his priority but he doesn't like to run out of magica mid fight.
Greetings Wizards! Your boy is back and with one of his longest vids to date! 🧙♂
*FAQs*
Q: Can't you scale the mountainside to reach Volsung without having to enter Volskygge?
🧙♂ Indeed you can! I forgot to mention this and is a much easier and faster way of obtaining the Volsung mask.
Q: Doesn’t the Greater Power, “Highborn”, allow Altmers to increase their rate of magicka regeneration by 25x for 60 seconds once per day, not 25%?
🧙♂️ Quite right! Apologies for the error - have been playing a Nord for far too long 😅
Q: Can't the Dragon Priest Masks be worn with a Falmer Helmet for increased armor and additional enchantments?
🧙♂ Indeed they can! Dragon Priest Masks with a low base armor rating like Morokei will benefit the most, but all masks will benefit from additional enchantments. You could have a total of 5 enchantments on your head alone! The Falmer helmet can also be equipped and worn at the same time as any circlet, Penitus Oculatus helmet, and the Masque of Clavicus Vile.
Q: Isn’t Volsung tempered with a Corundum Ingot?
🧙♂️ Oops! Yes, that’s quite right! It’s not tempered by Ebony Ingots but by Corundum Ingots.
Q: What mod list are you using?
🧙♂️ That would be Septimus - Anniversary Edition Extended from Wabbajack.
can you add a mod link to the player home showed in 27:49? I don't have a beefy PC, but I do love a good player home!

You should do a video on How to all skills to 100 or the best skill in Skyrim
Like the Gauldur amulet, none of the priest masks are as powerful or impressive as the should be given the lore and how they are described.
Yeah, they’re not hugely powerful (apart from Konahrik imo) but some are very useful, especially if you hunt down the priests early on!
To be fair they are thousands of years old. King Author was said to hold the greatest weapon known to man but you throw a nuke his way and suddenly that sword doesn't look so impressive.
@@AspenBrightsoul Yeah but Skyrim hasn't advanced like that, its been pretty static in terms of technology and magical power for thousands of years. I mean the Dwarves were coming up with steam power and automatons but they blew themselves up real good and that whole thing ended
@Christopher Taylor Actually magical "technology" is increasingly common amongst the more common folk, maybe not so much in Skyrim but we see in Morrowind that more and more reasurch has been put into improvements to the point they are novel.

There are mods to fix that
I think the masks could’ve been treated like Azhidal’s rings, where you get a unique spell for wearing them.
That would’ve been cool!
Would have made them so much better
Or a unique power so magic isn't relied on.
@That Pleb Wouldve been neat to have them have powers/spells tied to the stories behind the priests (at least for the ones that have one...). Like Morokei could let you sap magicka from enemies like he does throughout the dungeon, Ahzidal could give you a combination fury, calm, and rally spell that makes enemies friendly to you like how he mind controls Ralis, etc.
@@dumbsterdives Yeah but I guess a mod could add things if there is one.
Here's a tip that Makes Volsung even better: Go to Volsyygg, Go to the left of the dungeon entrance (outside), go up the side of the hill. You can walk right up the side of the hill directly to the Word Wall and Dragon Priest, skipping the entire dungeon. And I've noticed that if you start hitting him with a melee weapon as soon as he exits his coffin and then keep wailing on him, he just _doesn't_ attack you.
Thanks, I forgot to mention the first tip but the second I didn’t know about!
That happens with alot of the dragon priests
Wait, so that's why some dp just float there and do nothing?
Exactly how i did it, just didn't want to vlear a dungeon
i didn't even know that volsung was connected to a dungeon, i've always kind of just ended up skyrimming my way up there following the dragon roost marker.
Thanks to the AE there is a ring called "Denstagmer's ring". That ring add a +20% resistance to frost, shock or fire damage. Combining with the mask of Otar you'll get a 50% resistance to all the 3 elements
Oh wow, I didn’t know about that! Need to fish more 👀
I prefer the warlocks ring the health regeneration boost and slight movement speed boost is nice but it’s the fact I get a ward when I block that sells it and said ward stacks with spellbreakers and is effected by the ward absorb perk it all really helps against pesky mages and dragons that refuse to land
Totally balanced
That plus the Imperial Dragon armor in the AE for the Civil War mod adds ANOTHER 30% to each element. So that's 80%, almost the cap.
There is another ring that does magic resistance in general and shock resistance, so that might be better.
i believe the wooden mask takes you to a pocket dimension ancient dragon priests wouldn't of needed a time traveling mask; but a pocket dimension to hide a mask they wanted forgotten does make sense.
Yeah, that seems the most likely theory and also so that the sanctuary would stand the test of time, for access to an eternal shrine where the final mask was never out of reach
Maybe it didn't go back in time back then. It's not named so it could have been unfinished. Alduin crashing in the current era from the past made a sort of bridge. The unfinished mask absorbs the energy of the bridge and takes you back to the day he left. There is no owner of the wooden mask, it was always meant for the dragonborn.
@@marvincooper9926 good theory
House Telvanni approves of this ranking! Very informative content and beautiful editing as always!! ❤
Lord Divayth Fyr endorses this message from the venerable Master Neloth.
I admit I would not have expected Master Neloth to be one to use hearts in his comments... Then again, I'm no master wizard.
Loved the puns and jokes, sweet video !
Wow, thanks man! Really appreciate that :)
@@theWelshWizard always looking forward to your magical videos !
I will say, the masks become a lot more useful in Survival mode, since they often handle problems that are introduced by the new rules, or make them easier to deal with. Also, Morokei and Konahrik are my favorite masks.
I really wish the wooden mask did more time travel in different dragon mask locations just so we could check out the past
Maybe it could have a whole quest line where at the end you discover the Dragon Priest it belonged to.
@@autismreal4maybe it could be similar to Namira’s quest?
Even if it were something simple. Like finding lore about the individual dragon priests.
@@HappyBeezerStudiosemagine walking through an ancient tomb, this mask had so much potential.
The shock one , and the one that increases magica with destruction cast reduction are my favorite ones.
The fact that people are STILL making content about skyrim is both incredible and absolutely baffeling to me. xD
I remember seeing your vids fly through my recs for a bit now but since I've been playing Skyrim myself again recently I decided to finally click in and I gotta say - very worth it! Good voice, good editing, good script for this one in general and the fact that you've been including captions for a long time is very appreciated! Definitely gonna be checking in more.
Thank you! I’m glad I could have a good first impression :) new ranking coming soon! 🧙♂️
Volsung was the first dragon priest i ever found playing Skyrim so it forever has a place in my heart... + It looks aweasome
Mine was krosis
So many people asking about mods and debating builds, meanwhile I'm just happy that my favourite mask was the highest ranked mask outside of Konahrik. Volsung FTW!
I use the spellbreaker shield coupled with the elemental protection perk to reduce elemental damage and being a nord having that frost resistance
Spellbreaker is amazing! One of my favourite Daedric Artifacts 🛡️
I’ll plug Daedric Artifacts Ranked here (for those who haven’t seen): ua-cam.com/video/t42uzCBT25c/v-deo.html
@@theWelshWizard Yeah, and the Daedric Prince isn’t gonna take your soul to his realm of Oblivion when you die. Probably one of the only Daedric Quests I’ll do without feeling bad my character doesn’t get to enjoy an eternity in Sovngarde.
I'm genuinely surprised that the DB masks don't rank higher. Not only are those resists pretty clutch on higher difficulties, they contribute to the absurd damage of the new Elemental Blast spells.
Also that shock was lowest.
Dragons are either 50 to frost or flame. Nothing resists lightning (aside from named dragons, who resist all equally), only 4 enemies, two of which are 1-location only, are immune.
And removing magicka from dragons stops breath attacks or shouts.
It’s also the easiest to hit due to being hitscan.
Sure, few things use it, but aside from enchantments, you got nothing to reduce it. No race gains resistence, unlike frost or flame.
It's a stupid list. Stuff like +20% bow damage on a mask with barely useful skills you could enchant better on other gear? (Like who the Hell goes adventuring with their potion making gear?). Compared to elemental damage resist/buffs? Sure most 'builds' can dabble in potion making but you don't need a dragon mask for that. @@samakiraroyjanssen6326
Last time i commented that you cant convince me to play Skyrim again, and here i am, playing it for 2 months already. Again. And also subscribed to you, great content and like your character.
Thanks man! And welcome back!
The best usage of the masks is the multiple armor sets glitch, wearing every single mask and all those buffs stacked 🤣
A thought on Hevnoraak.
I've not gotten it yet to test it on my current playthrough, but potentially, immunity (85% resistance) to disease DAMAGE might actually make it a much more interesting pick if playing with mods. Assuming it actually resists it, which it may not.
Disease damage in general is a very, very difficult resistance to get normally, as well as tons of stuff just not getting it, since it's, to my knowledge, just not available in base Skyrim.
It's still probably not a fantastic mask in that context, but might be a great thing to just carry, in case.
On a side note, one of my most fun times in Skyrim has been just becoming a mask collector. Lots of mods add masks, and just accumulating them, putting them on display, ect is surprisingly enjoyable experience. Lots are just recolors of the wooden mask, sadly, but there's impressive variety out there, too.
With the running Tip at 6:32 just keep a dagger on you and a torch you hold the torch and dagger then put your dagger away and you can sprint forever it’s called the Olympic Torch strat
Wow, will have to give this a go, thanks!
@@theWelshWizard ya though looking back on it my wording was not perfect you start running with the dagger and torch then as your mid sprint you put the dagger away and you can keep endless sprint as long as you never go backwards or take super a sharp turn
@@RinSyuveildoesn’t your sprint speed decrease. when sheathing a weapon mid sprint or is that visual or just a console problem
@@Jango_Thicc your stamina will look like it’s going down and it is but when it runs out you won’t start panting and stand still you will just keep running
@@RinSyuveil That’s really good to know. But on console it looks like my character is running slower when I sheath a weapon while I am sprinting, is that just an fov change making it “look” like im going slower or is my speed actually decreased with the exchange of infinite sprint
You need to make a collection for your mods asap! The Combat looks so fun
+1
+1111
I personally prefer using garlic bread over cure disease potions they only weigh 0.1 each whereas potions weigh 0.5 (meaning you can carry 5 pieces for the same weight as 1 potion) plus they heal 1 hp lol you just need a homestead with an oven (or any place with an oven I have no clue about anything beyond the legendary edition on the ps3) a full loaf of bread garlic and butter and it gives 2 each time
That is handy to know, thanks! Might be cooking some garlic bread in the next ranking 👍
Hawk feathers do the same exact thing.
@@owlrecluse2234 but they don't heal an hp lol but yeah if you can't make garlic bread hawk feathers are a better bet for weight than potions
21:44 here is a tip from when I was adventuring, Nahkriin won't actually attack you before he gets his staff so, all you have to do is block him with your body and hit him while he tries to get his staff
Love the belt collector wizard image in the thumbnail!
okay not even a minute in and I am subscribed. I really enjoy how you make this videos already, and this is the first video I've seen from you.
Thank you! And welcome aboard!
I love these videos. For a Welshman, you are pretty entertaining.
Another well made video from the wizard, before this I never thought to combine frost and shock to take advantage of their effects, this might inspire a new play through
Great job on this video
Also, I prefer the mask that gives more defense to electricity
As even tho they may be few, they hit like a tank when they do
Amazing content as always
Appreciate it!
This is my second video, it's 12:12 AM and I'm outside glued to the screen, SUBSCRIBED!! 👊🐻
Your channel is awesome! Your style and production quality are top notch. Another great video!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed 😊
Dayum you, ya crazy Welsh Wizard! Now You've gotten me wanting to play Skrim again!
there was a theory that Kohnarik was supposed to be your mask by birthright as your the heir to the Dragon bloodline (Youd dont needa be a Septim to be the dragonborn
I've been waiting for this.Akihiko
One question, and out of curiosity. What mod did you use for the dragon priest mask being on your charcter's hip 27:54 into the video? It looks awesome!
That would be Belt-Worn Dragon Priest Masks - From Warmonger Armory. I’ll add the link in description 👍
Would love to see your ranking on which cities / villages or Houses are the best.
House ranking coming next!
@@theWelshWizard can’t wait!
That poison & disease resistance one actually is my default headgear when travelling. Because it's always annoying when meanwhile you've reached maximum armor cap, but easily got disease by one bite of a bear, wolf, or damn skeaver ambushing. Same with vampire. Their spell always get me disease like every time.
When entering a battle, especially against dragon or wizards, Otar is my top equipment.
But it's just me who like playing the orthodox two handed tank warrior. Like that old guard said, "Best offence is a good defence, am I right?!"
Btw, I like how you deliver enough information, straight to the point, but not forget to give a bit trivial joke. Good content.
Safe travel, land strider. May your road lead you to cloud district very often.
4 minutes in, great editing my man, appreciate your hard work!
As an archer Krosis has a special place in my heart, usually the first mask i get in the game as well
Combining the Kohnarik mask with a pair of those temple priest robes from the priests in Raven Rock, Solstheim, makes for solid dragon priest look. Since the robes already come with a 75% boost in magicka regeneration enchantment, they cannot be enchanted any further... however, you can still enchant a pair of gloves, shoes, a necklace and a ring for total of 8 extra enchantments.
another great top, keep the good job
Thanks!
it would be cool if there were stories that had someone wearing a wooden mask in Skyrim, Like books or something, to hint at the Dragon Priests
Yo those shrines at 4:07 are sick
it possible to contract at least one disease (Bone Break Fever) as a vampire, despite vampires being listed as having 100% disease resistance.
Tip for Dukaan: Pair it with Stahlrim weapons. Stahlrim items natively increase all Ice-based enchantments on them.
Rank all possible stewards. Then perhaps one day all followers and or marriage candidates. The pool of choices for stewards is probably perfect for video length and I’ve yet to see someone else do a banger video on that but I know The Wizard can!
I just subscribed last night and honestly I'm enjoying the content so far.
Glad to hear it! More to come soon 🧙♂️
I love your videos!
A 30 minutes video from Welshwizard?
Sign me up!
“Argonians have an innate 50% resistance to disease”
I started a new survival playthrough last night as an Argonian and contracted Rock Joint from the third wolf I met after river wood.
I expected the poison resist helmet to be closer to the top slot due to how difficult it is to get poison resistance outside racials and poison resistance potions, and how hard poisons scale at the higher levels. immunity to magic and melee are self explanatory, but dealing with poisons is rough up until you get Hevvy.
Love seeing areas from Kohnarik's Armory mod lol
All your vids are very interesting and your voice makes it more fun to watch! I subscribed and hope that theres more vids coming.
Thanks man! Gonna speed up following this next ranking and try posting more regularly - but I always say that lol
If you're running mage build the mask that's found with the staff of magnus is pretty solid.
I have hard time choosing for my numbear one spot between Ahzidal, Nahkriin, and Konahrik Dragon Priest Masks.
Ahzidal mask will even grand you small bonus to the enchanting if you wear his set special of armor (I am not using any game breaking glitches to create broken items).
Nahkriin mask is really good for spellsword build, or mages wearing heavy armor.
Konahrik mask works really well for warrior builds, and bonus points for the design.
I just wish khonarik (mb abt spelling) had the abilitys of every other dragon priest mask or something like that it would just make sense
Yeah it's a shame that its abilities are reactive instead of proactive. If you could trigger them in the same way you would use a dragon shout it would probably have been alot better
love the videos as well as your great transitions. Superb as always, much revered Wizard of the Welsh.
Many thanks! 🧙♂️
Otar’s my favorite mask for a hyper tank build, heavy armor masks count towards the heavy armor material set bonus of daedric armors, and with enchantments on my daedric armor and the fact that helmets cant be enchanted with resistances means I get the most resist-related enchants on all armor pieces and jewelry for a 80%+ resist on all 3 elements + a 20% magic resist ring.
I could go further but I kept some enchants for two handed and heavy armor bonuses
I was angry about the whole Dragon Priest shrine, because I worked my butt off painstakingly locating and clearing the dungeons and nearly dying several times to get ahold of all eight masks (on Skyrim) then I had to walk all the way back to Labyrinthian, and once I placed all the dragon priest masks on their respective busts, Bethesda has the audacity to not even give me an achievement for it!
"can be upgraded with the daedric smithing perk" started to get meme able near the end, i would suggest say all can be upgraded with the perk with exceptions (then name them as they come up).
still a great video :D
I did find myself getting bored of that line lol - but next time I’ll do that 👍
I like electricity resistance during the College questline, as you get a lot more lightning users in that progression. Useful if only for those quests
i love your videos and the time and effort put into it :) keep it up!
It says morokei gives 100% more regen but it’s still slow af during combat to the point it’s basically useless. That’s why I go for Nahkriin.
Yeah, it’s armor rating doesn’t help it’s cause either and a shame you can’t use Mage Armor perk
I find the Dragonborn DLC masks far better than the other base game masks given it has the only bonus destruction damage enchantment while the rest can be replaced with other armor or enchantments like the increase magicka and regen ones are useless once you wear multiple armor pieces that each have 25%~ lower magic cost in x school of magic. Elemental resists are also an enchantment you can get and have a higher % in by just doing the enchanting yourself
Another great video, you are a credit to the community. Can see the huge effort you put in
Thanks man!
my ranking would be slightly different.
volsung > ahzidal/dukaan/vahlo > krosis > morokei > nahkriin/vokun > rahgot/miraak > otar > konahrik > hevnoraak
volsung is far and away the most useful imo. its a lightweight waterbreathing enchantment that also gives you better prices and carry weight, so any character can make use of it. whether its throwing it on to sell things, to swim, or to grab a few extra pieces of loot. water breathing doesnt really have much use in skyrim tho, sadly, especially without underwater combat.
the dlc mage mask are all really good and help spells lack of scaling for their specific elements.
krosis is just a good general ranger type mask, or for potion crafting. making lockpicking easier it just a bonus.
morokei is just a good general mage type mask, unlike the rest of the mage mask, which require you to be more specialized.
nahkriin and vokin are both good for their respective schools.
the remaining mask are generally only good if you ignore enchanting imo.
rahgot if you use stam/enjoy power attacks, miraak if you use mana.
otar can be really good early on, specifically if you have a racial resist, but otherwise enchanting can easily replace this once its maxed out.
konahrik is very underwhelming for me, bc if im low enough to proc it, im probably dead, or its just faster to use a heal spell/potion. it does however work really well with restorations avoid death perk, and it does look really cool. im just not a fan of low hp RNG procs myself, when i could use another helm and have its effect 24/7 while also staying healthy.
hevnoraak, last and certainly least. vampire OR werewolf form both grant you 100% disease immunity, with werewolf only taking away the rested bonus. the only value this mask has is if you dont plan to do either, then its actually pretty good. i almost always just become a werewolf for the disease immunity, even if i never use the werewolf form myself, so i view this mask as completely useless.
this was a neato vid tho, thank you.
i love skyrim. I've been playing it for over forty hours, for the first time ever, and i have the krosis mask without even realizing how cool it is or what a dragon priest is. there's so much I haven't yet seen !!
Those masks floating around you is freaking cool
If you use Dukaan with a Stalhrim weapon that has a Chaos enchant and a frost enchant Both Dukaan and Stalhrim will boost both of those enchantments by 25% for a total 50% damage boost
The enchantments also get a bonus from the elemental destruction perks most powerful weapon imo
That's pretty cracked xd
22:52 a bit late here but i think you can still call Odahviing in that place in dragonsearch to go back to Skuldafn (could be a fake memory tho)
You know, I was fully expecting to have to leave a comment about the wooden mask. Good job! 😂
My Favorites are Nahkriin (great for heavy armored Mage builds), Hevnoraak (great for non-vampires and non-werewolves), and any of the three Elemental ones (for those elementally themed character).
And if you like Dragon Priest Masks? There's mod for Dragon Priest Armory, with each Priest coming with their custom armor too! Heck, if you want you can just go find a Clay Mask and enter another time, and craft your own armor too. Including a Hearthstone Armor, that has Enchantment Boost, and real epic black and red shade...
Konahrik's Accountrements.
The reason why Otar does not have a translation is because, its shown that the name of the dragon priest who beard the mask was Otar the mad, or its because the common language does not have words for it, Parthuunax has confirmed that the language of the dovah is more detailed than the common
Fun fact:
The poison gas in Calcelmo's laboratory in fact just superheated steam. :D
amazing video!
Water breathing is also an excellent skill for escaping guards if you happen to get caught being naughty... so i hear. Obviously I wouldn't have any firsthand experience with such things, or outstanding bounties. I'm obviously just a law abiding citizen that enjoys long underwater swims upriver.
😂
As the mask of The First Dragonborn, Miraak had many possibilities. Like perhaps... an extra daily use of "Mul Qah Diiv!" A simple magicka increase is incredibly lame.
I love vokun. The combination of bound bow plus invisibility and silent casting perk plus slowtime shout buffed by stability is a build many already did. This mask helps alot in that. It also helps you being a necromancer that can buff the zombies/summons with courage thanks to the perk that alows you to use ilusion perks on undead, and paralyze is always useful.
The mask is just so useful
The elemental mask are also very good, althought very niche. Best to worst are, for me, fire, shock and frost. Fire for the spell on ahzidal ring and shock form boosting the Kamehameha
This is why I prefer mods that buff the Dragon Priest masks so that they feel like unique, powerful items and not just "well i can get a better one by making it"
Bit of a nitpick here, as it isn't very important, but Volsung is upgraded with a corundum ingot, not an ebony ingot. bit more accessible, which adds to the mask's appeal. :) great video btw! will definitely be checking out your other stuff :D
Well spotted! My apologies - I have mentioned this in my pinned comment 👍 and I appreciate the kind words, thanks :)
Fixed Morokei with the 20% shout cooldown reduction is my go-to mask.
I laughed stupidly loud at “unless I pull a mussel” lmao well done
Haha 😉
What is that combat mod? With the aiming and health above enemy’s heads?
I remember there was a conjuring book you could get via the console thing that gave you a spell to summon dragon priests. Those dragon priests, in turn, summoned two of those giant lightning elementals. It was glorious. 😁
If you have the UESP, the value of Morokei suddenly shoots up drastically. In conjunction with an Amulet of Talos and a Blessing of Talos, as well as Dragon Aspect, it allows you to just about spam shouts. Some standouts include things like permanent invincibility via Become Ethereal, practically permanent Slow Time, and the ability to ride Odahviing or summon two Odahviings (by allowing the shout bar to regenerate before he's gone).
Bit late but you can also grab the Ring of the Erudite, which increases your base magicka regen by 2, which means it multiplies with most other magicka regenerating items.
Okay, that mussel pun was magnificent
Otar is actually really good, due to the fact that elemental resistance is applied seperately from magic resistance. So, with 85% magic resist, you can reduce incoming magic damage by 85%, 30% elemental resistance will reduce your damage taken by 30% of that damage. Coupled with the fact that helmets don't have any real useful custom enchantment slots for pure warriors, Otar is probably among the best pieces to use as one.
Yeah, elemental resistance combined with magic resistance can grant you a max resistance of 97.75% in one element. But a much easier way of achieving full resistance to magic (as well as to a whole lot more) is through absorb magicka. 100% absorb magicka means no damage to you and a well supplied magicka bar when versing spell casters and dragons 🔥
@@theWelshWizard
My tops would be otar or hevnoraak.
From the perspective of a melee fighter.
Breton (or alteration perk 3)+ agent of mara + lord stone + shield of ysgramor gives you 85% magic resist. The fishing ring and otar give you 50% so I believe that makes it 92.5%?
I am going to assume the wiki is correct on damage and the ancient dragon has the highest spell damage with fireball/ice storm of 200 damage. That would be 600 damage on legendary. That would leave the damage at 45. It hurts, but I'd say a warrior should easily have 300+ hp by the time they fight ancient dragons means it shouldn't be but 15% of total hp.
The physical attacks of ancient+ do something like 600-900dmg...which is still 45-68dmg so avoid that. Train archery.
Assuming the wiki is accurate. Idk.
Mages would do less magic damage than a dragon.
I don't care much for absorb Magicka because having to wear a couple pieces of miraak set I feel is too limiting.
hevnoraak is invaluable.
Unless you find a poison immunity asap, it might be your only way to get that resist poison besides being a vampire.
A basic falmer does 15 poison damage and a warmonger does 36 poison damage unresisted per second for 3-4sec.
It stacks.
The damage is insane on legendary. An arrow and sword strike would kill a character with base hp. God forbid you get hit with a third arrow. That would do upwards of 200dmg with the arrow/sword damage taken into account.
I don't go anywhere near falmer without poison resist.
I think that Krosis should rank on top (from a glass mage main) cuz konahrik is just to situational and you have to work rly hard to get it, and on Volsung, in all my playthroughs in skyrim i have never drowned or even got close to it, the carry enchantment aint rly much if you can sort your inventory and the price enchantmen isnt that big since you end up hoarding gold i all playthroughs. While Krosis gives bonus to archery (still most popular build) alchemy which is just good if you dont wanna spend so much on potions, and lockpicking which is just the cherry on top.
Maybe i just dont play skyrim enough to understand the "meta" way of things but i genuinely expected morokei to be at least on the top half of the list. An easy to get 100% magika regen is pretty good.
Especially as you can combine it with the arch mage robes youpl be getting very soon afterwar the fact.
Like, to me i always viewed magic regen as a very good thing in more or less all cases but maybe not
great editing!
Thanks!
Volsung was literally the first one I found and haven’t taken it off since 😂🙌🏽🙌🏽
Wish you uploaded more such good videos idk if you remmeve what I told you last time but it's okay life gets crazy sometimes but dahm u could always be 1 video away from blowing up
Gonna really try to increase the frequency going forward, hopefully starting with this next ranking! 🤞 Thanks for the kind words :)
I main as mage in ES games so Morokei is always my first go to as well as the entire Winterhold college questline. First thing I do to get my starting mage equipment.
If I'm on PC, I kill Marcurio for his awesome robes but will resurrect him cause he's my fav NPC in game and always marry him lol
I absolutely love how your game looks!! Do you by chance have a list of mods that you use?
This mod list is Septimus AE from Wabbajack
Been watching you for about a week and i cant get rid of the feeling like im watching Limit Breakers (skyrim edition)
Wizards alike 🧙♂️
@TheWelshWizard
I've made an attempt at improving on the masks existing effects and giving them unique new ones to make them match more to their power in the lore, as I feel like some of them were abit of a let down and by that I mean they were either to situational or the bonus was to weak, or you yourself could make a better enchanted item.
To begin with MIRACK, the biggest letdown. Instead of its usual ability it has a one per day power to A give you an additional magic bar (that cannot be refilled my potions) and increased the strength of all your Spells. The size of the magic bar and the increased strength starts of as a mid buff but increases in strength depending on the number and strength of dragon's you kill while wearing it, OR you can use spare drsgon souls u have on you to increase this. The buff has no set duration but expires when your new magic bars are empty. Also after the ability is used or if you were to next use it, the strength of the ability re-sets. (This ability is to fit in to the dragon born theme and gives use to the spare dragon souks u woukd have late game.)
Next is my personal favourite, OTAR. Although it's already good, my suggestion would be to remove it's default effect and instead give it a permanently activate passive skill where it has a 30% chance to fully obsorbe a fire, frost or shock Spell and then redirect that attack to your nearest enemy.
Next for Hevnorak. It has the once per day ability to, when below 50% health, place sould trap on all nearby enemies and then use an AoE life steal, with the amount of health stolen increasing depending on how low you HP is. This Mask also will upgrade empty grand soul gems to empty black soul gems.
This and Ragots abilities fit in with their lore and quests of them sacrificing others in order to become immortal, or in Hevnorak's case, stealing his subjects minds and souls.
Now Speaking of RAGOT, in addition to it's usual enchantment, they also have a once per day AoE stamina steal, which then will also temporarily increase your swing and movement speed based on the number of enemies affected.
Now I've forgotten the name of this mask, rated number 2, meaning Horror. (First of all I'd like to disagree with your placing of this mask as although it is versatile, chances are u already have individual gear or potions that are better).
So, the mask still keeps the increased speach but also has the passive ability where when an enemies HP drops below a certain fresh hold (50 and 25%), to become parylized for 5 seconds OR a 15% chance to become frenzied and turn hostile to other enemies (will default to paralysis if no other enemies).
Now for MOROKI, in addition to the 100% magica regen, it allows ward Spells to obsorbe physical hits (not sure if they do that already and if it does, than it increases the amount of damage negated instead and decreeses their cost), and using a ward at the very last moment a charged Spell would hit u staggers nearby enemies and will refill part of you mana bar.
Furthermore, it also increases the power of staffs in your hand and reduces soul gem depletion rate.
(Again, this fits with his quest, with him being trapped in an impenetrable ward).
Now VOKUN has a few abilities that replace it's normal one. It increases the duration of your conduration and alteration Spells and gives you the ability (every 7 seconds, to pay stamina and magica)to either teleport a small distance in a particular direction (using the purple conjuration Summoning animation). OR B, you switch places with your achranoch summon and any enemies near where your switch places to become staggered (I don't know which of the two would fit better).
Now for NAKRIN. It now only has it's destruction cost reduction but instead gives a passive effect that boosts the strength of your destruction Spells that works similar to Mirak's. The strength of the buff starts of weak but has a way to be increased over time, also it has no set duration that the buff expires. It empowers your destruction Spells a little bit after each time you cast them, but the strength of the buff deminishes when you use a HP or MP potions OR resets entirely when you would switch to using a Spell from another school of magic, or use a weapon, excluding staffs.
Now I wasn't sure what to do for KROSIS as my suggest buff may seem abit bland in comparison to the rest as it's already good, BUT it has its usually effect, but the strength of its enchantment is increased to 30%, also potions and poisons are now waitless and the weight of stolen goods are halved. It also increases your movement speed while sneaking.
And now for the big boy KONARICK
1st of all it REMOVES THE ABILITY FOR YOUR CHARACTER TO RECEIVE AN INSTANT DEATH ANIMATION, or to be killed by a single hit because those are bullshit in my op and u have more of a chance of receiving one than this masks effect procking at low HP.
2ndly, the chances of each of its default effects procking has been increases to a 30% chance for the heath when health drops bellow 50 and 25%, AND has a 15% to Summon a dragon priest.
And 3rdly, instead of it granting the fire cloak, which in my op is to weak of a Spell, it instead unlocks you the ability for 10 seconds to cast a master level Spell ignoring its magic cost. This ability then has a cooldown and will default to the heal incase it would prock again.
Boy, that's alot of text, I don't think I've missed one. Now if someone for some reason decide to read this far than thnk you. Also, I'd love to read any feedback of my suggested changes, if possible, as I like talking about shit like this from games 😅
I got morokei. My Dragonborn is a Nord Battlemage that Dual Weilds a dagger and a mace. He wears light armor and is very quick on his feet. He gets a very good damage output and ennemies can't catch him. He changes his dagger to spells often. Armor isn't his priority but he doesn't like to run out of magica mid fight.
