      This is the first thing I do the last few times I played Skyrim on my main computer - save up the 5K gold to buy that house in Whiterun. When I first played Skyrim the first time I thought it was fantastic you could put stuff in just about any container. A few in-game days pass by and everything I put in various world containers are gone forever. Talk about way beyond angry. Later I found out that the game does this automatically for memory purposes and keep the game stable too. The in-house containers never refresh so you can store presumably infinite number of items in them. So that's why I try to get a house asap... gotta put my hoard somewhere.

      jesse fernandez see to kill any livestock is considered a crime in the game. And whenever you commit a crime in a small village without guards the inhabitants take it apon them selves to dish out justice and sense some of them have quest importance they are immortal at times

      I keep a maximum of 3 manual saves; just save over the oldest manual save once you have 3. This has served me well and it also keeps the saves to a max of 6. Since I always keep the very first save, which I manually do right after you get off of the cart before you choose your character, I have a max of 7 saves. Autosaves only keep a max of 3 as well, btw.

  • @S.minor_Compositions
    @S.minor_Compositions 3 роки тому +83

    I'll be honest. I prefer fighting in 3rd person alot more than first person. It makes me much more aware of my surroundings allowing me to view all angles with perfect clarity. In first person view it's pretty easy to whiff your power attacks on moving targets especially one's of light builds such as thieves and Assassins but in 3rd person, performing a power attack on a moving target is more rewarding because of the ability to be able to track their movements if they move out of the way by simply moving the cam controls to their general direction. Lastly there's this violent shake I don't like in first person view when in combat. Sure I get it, it's helps with the immersion and immersion is flipping awesome, I can agree with that. But the shaking in 1st person Cam is way too violent when getting bashed, pulling off a power attack or getting stunned with a power attack

      Logan M Is that a joke? Cause for all of you new to Skyrim there exists the "suspect system" and what this does is every time you commit a crime and someone sees you they're gonna report you or scream or something else but if you kill that person let's say inside his house (his house is where you committed the crime) if you let him walk out of that house then you're pretty much fucked but if you kill him before he get's out of that house you will not be arrested but here's where the chicken comes in. If a chicken saw you commit a crime you will instantly get reported (that's right instantly) to a guard and you can't get away from that, other animals will not report you but the chicken does

    Use the wall-plate glitch on the wardrobe in the tavern in riverwood. (Put a plate against a wall and sprint into it) do that to the dresser/wardrobe and open the back panel and you can get a blades sword, an orchish sword, lots of ingredients and a boat load of gold.

    Honestly I've gotten into the habit of constantly saving from playing Skyrim, and now I do it with all other games I play.
    Whenever my sister watches me play a game she gets so annoyed at how much I pause to save the game. Then when she's playing games she forgets and gets started back at a point that is really far from where she is now and I try not to laugh but it's kinda funny to me.

      The only time this backfired was when I acidentally deleted al the saves except for one from like 5 minites ago and I ended up getting stuck doing this one mission. I ended up getting through it though, thankfully...

    Here's a better list:
    1: When exiting the cave from Helgen there's a bandit camp not far, kill the bandits there, they have good early level gear. Also, raid the mine just past the standing stones.
    2: Play on Expert or above, below that the game is far too easy and difficulties like Master and Legendary require strategy and the payoff is far more rewarding.
    3: A dual wielding build coupled with the Death Brand armour is the most OP build in the game, also that x15 sneak bonus with daggers is ridiculous, invest in the sneak skill.
    4: Join the factions early on, they offer great armour sets for free, especially the Dark Brotherhood.
    5: Don't do the civil war questline, it breaks a lot of sidequests, if you want to do it wait until you've completed everything else first.
    6: Play with mods, at least the unofficial Skyrim patch, many mods simply fix the game instead of adding something new.
    7: If you want to play a mage focus on conjuration, it's the most powerful school in the game.
    8: Spend your money! Money is easy to come by, might as well spend it. Don't be afraid to buy tens of potions at a time, especially on higher difficulties, they're worth the coin.
    9: Use companions, again, on higher difficulties they make the game so much easier simply by being there as a distraction, they're not as useless as you may think. Companions can be great pack mules, also if they get stuck in doorways just aim the crosshairs in their eyes and they'll back up.
    10: Do the main quest! It's not as boring as people say, I think they're forgetting you get to go to fucking Sovngard! Doing the main quest first opens the world up, NPCs have new dialogue, bard's sing about you, and some new sidequests become available.
    11: BONUS, don't kill Paarthurnax you monster.

    • @Sianic12
      @Sianic12 7 років тому +16

      1. True.
      2. Uuhh well, that's actually the worst 'tip' for a _beginner_ . If you just started playing Skyrim then just stay with the standard difficulty. You know nothing about the different enemies, their attacks, their strengths and weaknesses, etc. The best way is to stay with the standard difficulty and then slowly turn it up when you get further in the game.
      3. Well that's not a tip at all. Skyrim is Skyrim because you can play *everything* you like! A typical warrior? Do it! A stealth wizard who assassinates his targets with fireballs out of the shadows? Do it! An archer in heavy armor with conjuration skills? Do it! *Because you can!*
      4. True.
      5. That's just a lie. Ending the civil war is always one of the first things I do and I never ever had problems with other quests. Set your personal priorities and play the game as you like.
      6. That's not really a tip either. Many players play on consoles and even though the PS4 and XB1 versions have _some_ mods, the PS3 versions and the XB360 version don't. Also, you can play the game without mods hundreds of hours without getting bored + the game is not that buggy that you *must* have the unofficial Patch.
      7. Nah, I pointed that out already, didn't I? Create your personal playstyle! It's what makes Skyrim Skyrim!
      8. That's actually true. You get so much money that you won't miss 1000 gold if you spend it for e.g. archery lessons. Money is so easy to get that it won't hurt.
      9. If you're a beginner, than this is a good tip. Companions will help you very much.
      10. True.
      11. *Wrong! He deserves to die!*

    My advice is a bit strange but I found out the hard way: if you want a set of guards armor from a certain town/ city? Make sure when/if you side with the Stormcloaks or the Empire, that you get the armor BEFORE your faction takes the city. Example: i sided with the legion on my first playthrough. When we were gonna tale winterhold, i looked around and was like “damn those winterhold guard outfits look cool!” And like an idiot i decided to take the town first. Well after that, I went into winterhold, and the guards were just Imperials. No more cool winterhold guards!
    Hope this helps someone.

      I just started my legendary account and yea I was killed by a wolf, twice. I'm pushing through it though, until your character has more of a footing with skills and equipment trying to make up that gap is the hardest at the start. Basically you have to exploit the game mechanics and be 'cheap' in every fight, using awkward rocks and water to keep your distance or using a companion to keep enemies busy. Of course I just finished survival mode in FO4 so the fact I can save anytime and fast travel in this legend mode makes it seem possible.

      And I find it MUCH easier to fight in third person when using a melee weapon. If you're sneaking up on someone to sneak attack them with a dagger, or when you're using a bow, first person is great. Of course this comes down to play style, thus this is not a tip but a preference.

    • @merpins
      @merpins 8 років тому +13

      And you have more than 81 skill points. You can make a skill line that you maxed out "Legendary," which resets the skill-line to level 15, refunds you the skill points, and lets you level up that skill line again.

    • @blindness134
      @blindness134 8 років тому +9

      Trevor Daniels When you level a skill to 100 you can turn it into a Legendary Skill, being able to re-level it from 0 to 100 while having to re-take all the perks.
      This can be done with every skill and as much as you want, making possible to break the 81st level cap.

    • @Trevorious2010
      @Trevorious2010 8 років тому

      So I
      You lose all the perks you've unlocked in the skill? And you have to relocate them? Or do you keep the points? I don't get how getting your perk points back is considered no level capping as you would still end up with the some amount of perk points as you begin with...

    • @blindness134

    Only fight a giant if there is a cliff side or a bunch of boulders that you can jump onto and arch from. If you try and fight from the ground too early on you're going to get destroyed, but if you arch from a cliff or boulder they can't get access to, then you're golden. Just make sure it's easy to jump on and off from your archery spot, because giants will run away if they can't get to you, so you need to jump off so they come back, and jump back on when they're in range.
    And beware, companions WILL get in your way any chance they get. You wanna go through a doorway? Not if Lydia can help it.

    @rollaj0int 8 років тому +81

    If you guys want to get to level 100 sneak in 30minutes follow this guide.
    1.Go to the Greybeards
    2. Make sure you have a dagger
    3. Start sneak knifing them until the eye comes up(do not knife at all when the eye pops up otherwise you will die a horrible death)
    4. Save save save save save!
    If you do this for 30mins you will get 100 sneak, make sure you put most points into sneak, that way you get completely undetected and can continously spam the attack button around the 80s.
    I got to the Greybeards in mainquest line around level 5, this method got me to level 19.
    I would also save in between 10 levels just incase you fuck up, Happens to the best of us and you wouldn't want to lose 70 levels.. (happened to me)

    Which means you'll be walking your butt to the nearest town or you have to drop something.

      @@prashikjadhav3954 🤣The Collage questline is a joke. You only "need" to cast magic in two specific quests, and both are low level spells. I don't even level Magika. I got in using a Magika boosting item to get past the entrance exam, then eventually enchanted four pieces of equipment with Cost Reduction to make specific spell types free to cast. My adventuring setup is usually Destruction/Restoration. *Without* the Unofficial Patch Mod, I use the Resto-Loop to get full reduction (for two types) on a single piece of equipment.

    I'm like a couple months late to be commenting on this but if you're new to Skyrim but you know that you want to have an archery based character here is a little hack, not really but like easy leveling it up.
    When you first get to Riverwood help the elf, Faendal I think, instead of Sven when it comes to that mini quest of love and Camilla and crap- lol and he'll become like a follower but he also helps bring up your archery and since he's your follower the gold you pay him you can just take it back when you ask him to trade items with him. I learned this trick from my uncle and I will never not use it cause it makes it easier to level up a bit. Plus, the max you can level up your archery from him is like 50 and that's halfway to completion.
    That's all I got or all I can remember for right since its late as hell- xD

    • @cooldoodert2919

      Shinaki-Senpai After that, if you finish the Companions quest, you can use Villas, Farkas, and the huntress. They are master trainers, can train you to 90 in archery, heavy armor, and two-handed. You can ask to see their inventory and take your gold back. You can get 20000 gold by completing the dark brotherhood questline. Might take some time, but definitely worth it for archery/warrior. fairwell, HAIL SITHIS!

      Caution on the over exploring. You can break some quests. Once you get up past level 30 you start making bank. I like to level enchanting and smithing, then legendary them. Sell the items you made and enchanted. For enchanting, the best boost for enchantments and for increasing value are Sneak, Chaos, Banish, Fear, Fortify Destruction, Health Restore, Paralyze. (Low level I use Waterbreathing on rings as petty souls work great with this one.)
      Chaos and Waterbreathing are found in Solstheim.
      There is also a bandit camp behind Whiterun, it's actually got a mine. Look for the upside down V. It has Transmute, handy for turning iron to gold.
      The Fortify Restoration / Alchemy exploit still works. You'll need to look it up if you want to know more about it. But this does kinda make things super easy. "Warning: do not mess with fortify health using this exploit. Will glitch your health and bring it below 0 if not careful."

    Not bad advice in general, but (IMO) first-person sucks and is the best possible way to lose a fight if you're up against more than one opponent.

    First time I played Skyrim with the frost troll. I didn’t feel like doing the steps so I tried climbing straight up. When I got to the frost troll it jumped down and I was above it now. I didn’t kill it as I knew I stood no chance so I just walked over it as it walked were I should have been

    I’ve been playing skyrim for 3 years now and I still haven’t touch dark brotherhood, dragonborn, bard’s college and dawnguard quests. Let alone modded quests that I’ve installed for years.

      As in you're still busy doing other stuff, or intentionally skipping it?

      Terang I've played it since it came out in 2011 & still haven't picked a side on the civil war or finished the dragonborn training. I guess I've spent way too much time making up my own missions

      Jesse Richards it took me 6 years playing the game to realise you can switch sides mid way through the war. You can either switch sides with the jagged crown and just bring it to the other city or you can abandon the siege on Whiterun and if you go back to the leader of the side you were on they name you traitor, then you can go to the other one and pledge allegiance but theyll have dialogue about not trusting a traitor before letting you in the ranks.

      Hmm, weird. Are you actually playing the game or just adore the atmosphere? Not hating, just me being progressive completionist and haven't ever finished main questline but first stuff I do is Dark Brotherhood, Companions, Thieves Guild etc.

      Has anyone tried to do dawnguard and companions?? Like my game glitched and I can’t enter the soul cairn to get arvak’s skull and I’m sad
