  • Welcome back to skyrim! Where today we set out on a second attempt of an impossible challenge! Can you beat the survive 100 days in skyrim hardcore challenge? The rules are simple, Legendary difficulty skyrim with survival mode but the added twist that you are not allowed to equip any Armor or weapons. This is the hardest possible challenge skyrim can offer. You are effectively playing at 1 hp and almost anything will kill you and fail the run. Ontop of that in survival mode you must eat and sleep similarly to an indie survival game. You must also balance temperatures which in the cold northern lands of skyrim is rather impossible.
    Mod Pack Used: next.nexusmods.com/skyrimspec...
    So sit back and watch as the spiffing brit tests to see if Skyrim is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits or surviving 100 days of skyrim hardcore is a task that is simply too impossible for this pro exploiter!
    What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced gameplay series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold and infinite money all in a fantastic montage. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

      The world is littered by "random encounter" spawn points and less random "leveled enemy" spawn points. While roads tend to be less dense with such points, they still usually have a few between towns. So technically it is statistically safer to travel by roads, but long time players know a lot of these road points by heart and know when to stray away from the road a bit if they want to avoid ANY confrontation

      When using the LAL mod I've had it where you fail all speech attempts.

    you should add the mod for this series called End Times which means Alduin WILL literally eat the world after a certain amount of days if you don't defeat him in the allotted time (1 year is default, but you can change it via MCM) but for this challenge, set it to 99 days, so in addition to surviving, you have to actually beat the game during the duration.

    The way you got lucky dodging those fireballs, you could sell your sweat for a luck potion. suggestion for your next run, if you haven't got them modded in already: Mimics! our good ol' D&D fan favorite. On a side note, that assassin is pretty annoying but he does drop the bow of shadows, a semi OP bow that lets you turn invisible for (if i recall correctly) 60 seconds when drawing it. You can however pick him off carefully by shooting him from the battle chamber and letting your companion and bystanders take care of him.

    The funniest part about the “Staff of Charming” is that it was actually a staff of fury, a type of staff that sends those inflicted by it into a ferocious rage, which is probably why the user died in the first place.

This way you can save the gold AND if you speak to Brynjolf he'll even comment on how smart you are for avoiding his scam.

      ​@@CircumcisionIsChildAbuse At no point was I speaking down on you in the slightest in any way. I don't know where you got that from and I'm sorry if I came off that way. I wasn't at all trying to be confrontational in the slightest. I was simply saying that it just doesn't make sense to me that you were saying that there was a difference between a group of fans who love the series because they enjoy it who would call themselves fans and think it's fun vs fans who know every little detail about the game. In your example, someone waiting in line for a *midnight release* but didn't know about a specific thing, is somehow less of a fan or somehow experienced the game in some "lesser way" or whatever term you'd like to use.
      Also, I used the rick and morty parallel, because it's the exact same thing. One member of an audience/fandom, thinking the rest of the people in the audience/fandom aren't smart enough in some way to "truly understand" or "experience" something in the same way they did.
      And yes, I get what you're saying here, that there are different levels of being a fan. Definitely came off a bit gate keepy though, which is what spurred me to say something.

    1) Run to Whiterun
    2) Make Enchanting Potion
    3) Enchant Ring with Alchemt
    4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 about 100 times
    5) Create smithing ring
    6) Become a dragonborn god and kill everything in 1 hit by enchanting gear and improving it to 6-7 figures of %
