The SECOND Nerbit said "There are no repercussions for murdering anyone here, as they didn't witness my transformation, and therefore they have no way to pin it on me. With that in mind, I had one very specific goal", I knew exactly who he was talking about. XD
@@kyucumbear No, not really. Nazeem was there, it's the urn you see at 11:41. If you look at the left side of the screen, near the altar there's an urn. That's Nazeem. Every NPC you kill becomes an urn. As far as I'm aware the bodies do not appear, only the urns with their name if you hover over the urn
Fun fact: not only does the khajiit Khajiitclaws bonus not stack onto your werewolf form, the base werewolf unarmed damage is actually less than the Khajiit with the claws bonus. So at low levels, an unarmed Khajiit actually hits harder than a werewolf.
Who would win... A ferocious beast that can run at high speeds and tear a group of warriors to shreds in seconds. Or a cat that talks in the third person.
As a cat owner that had to get 50 stitches because the sound of a piece of foil in the background is sooo scary I can agree cats scratch harder than dogs.
Werewolf sprint attack to this day is the strongest one hit move in the game you can achieve without glitches. There is nothing more satisfying than depleting 1/4 of Ancient Dragon HP in one move.
clearly someone didn't mess around with the restoration glitch. "without glitches" ah. alright. figured a sneak bow attack with a potent poison effect would be it, but whatevs.
@@KeithElliott-zd8cx I said glitchless because this is strongest attack you can achieve without breaking the game. Your bow attack with poison that does 500 damage, 100 lingering poison for 10 seconds and 150 ravage health aint "glitchless".
@@ExtremeMan10 wdym, daedra bow with smithing perks, archery and sneak should by itself do like 500 damage on sneak attack. So I am little bit confused, as you can also use a Philter of True Shot (the sold/found one) with 40% increased damage which is multiplicative. Math: Daedric Bow - 19 base damage according to the Skyrim Fandom Wiki. Overdraw perk doubles it, so 38. Fortify Smithing gear (like Silver-Blood Family Ring and The Forgemaster's Fingers - results in 27% increase, Blacksmiths appron with bonus also exists) +Blacksmith's Elixir (50% more effectivness)+ Black Book - Seeker of Might (provides the 10% bonus to smithing skill) results in 86 base damage bow according to the "Weapon damage calculator" by PRIMALmarauder . On top of that, Fortify Archery enchantment also exists with up to 40% increase per piece of gear (head, hands, ring, necklace - a generic one, can be bought from merchants), which would result in the 187 base damage on hit with daedric arrows equipped. This does not include the Ancient knowledge (15% increase to the smithing effects; its a bugged passive), above mentioned arcane blacksmiths appron with fortify smithing enchantment (comes in Amber and Madness Smithing addon from Creation Club, included in the Anniversary Edition). Now apply the sneak multiplier (x3) and boom, you oneshot the dragons at the priest burial sites like Shearpoint while being a reasonable level of about 30 with no points in alchemy and enchanting. If you play orc, they have a bonus to smithing on top of that. As you can see, if you go up to level 50 and you get enchanting and alchemy perks, it will be much more obscure, even without Restoration glitch. With proper setup, the base damage can be easily doubled, resulting in about 1k damage per sneak attack (3 shots to kill Ancient Dragon). Moreover, daggers are even more obscure if the hit is a sneak attack. P.S: With resto glitch, you can go over the integer, just see Spiffing Brit´s videos.
@@ExtremeMan10 Actual sneak dagger build has any viable dagger doing 100-150 damage from blacksmithing and one-handed perks as well as blacksmith elixir, times 30 because of assassin's blade perk and shrouded gloves enchantment for 3,000-4,500 damage, low balled duel enchanting of drain health for 25 pts, and paralysis for 2 seconds for funsies, and then we'll use the bought deadly poison for 65 damage. One-handed perks duel flurry for 35% attack speed and duel savagery for 50% power attack damage. 80% damage increase easy from enchantments to one-handed from boots, amulet, and 2 rings. Each enchanted item you could put on fortify health as well for about 40-50 points, or further boost your sneak. High damage build with fortify health or sneak, health drain and paralysis making you virtually unkillable. The werewolf lunge attack I doubt does anywhere near the 5k+ damage and has nowhere near the survivability.
Cool mod idea: each race has a unique werewolf transformation. Khajit is a like lion looking werewolf, argonian looks similar to a deathclaw or a gatorclaw, nords have pale white/blond fur, orcs are like horrifying werewolf creatures with multiple layers of teeth, etc
I love that the last fight establishes that Tsun COULD join the fight against Alduin to save the world, nothing is stopping him. He just doesn't feel like it, unless Alduin attacks him personally.
I think it’s cause, as the guardian of the bridge, he cannot start a fight unless he gets attacked or someone tries to pass. Which seems like the kinda divine weirdness common in Skyrim
I'm a big fan of using the Werewolf Form for the Dark Brotherhood quests. Transform some distance from the town, sprint in, maul your target to death, sprint out.
If you own a home in that town, you can transform inside your house and nobody will be the wiser. How exactly does a werewolf have the key to that structure? Bah, none of my business, move along.
The Alteration skill tree actually synergizes really well with lycanthropy. Not only do armor spells carry over to beast mode (and benefit from Mage Armor when they do) but the Atronach perk does too. Also the Atronach Stone or Lord Stone are really good too.
Oooh.. this is interesting! I was planning a Werewolf Mage run and this could help a ton! I want to make a squishy mage with a dark secret when he gets angry.. when he runs out of magic or gets pushed too far he rages out and kills everything with his bare claws and teeth. Do you have any more information on this or anywhere I can look? I’ve never really messed with alteration magic before, I usually stick with destruction or summons.. alteration is like enhancing armor and weapons and stuff, right?
@@DanteYewToob Most of this is off the UESP wiki and I haven't really messed with it myself much. When you transform you lose any passive racial bonuses (since your race is temporarily turned into "werewolf") and any equipment bonuses too. But you'll keep the effects of any buffs you cast or activate ahead of time and any static effects from perks or standing stones. As Nerbit mentioned you can activate an Orc's Berserker Rage or Breton's Dragonskin abilities and they'll stay active. Armor spells like Stoneflesh will stay active, and if you dual cast them with the Stability perk they'll last a lot longer and if you take the Mage Armor perk they'll be stronger since werewolves don't wear armor. Most perks aren't going to do much of anything, but Magic Resistance and the Atronach perk will make dealing with other mages a lot easier.
So, the record-scratch glitch (great name btw), is likely caused by your character initiating a finisher animation but there not being enough room to fit the models. So the game takes a second to recalculate and places your and your victim in the nearest space that doesn't cause collision issues. It can happen on regular finishers too, except much faster because the models are much smaller. A werewolf's frame is quite large and is more horizontal when finishing, due to the hunched over nature of the mauling attack.
It took me YEARS to realise that Werewolf fighting system is tied to finisher animation and by finishing off with a particular combo of buttons, you get different finisher animation. I've played skyrim since release in 2011, and only 10 years later, in 2021, I realised there's a head pop execution! I love this transformation so-so much. Truly, Skyrim is a game where you learn something new with every playthrough.
@@hereticFox716 Yes. It happens if you press both left and right mouse buttons simultaneously when the opponent is at critically low health. Holding Left mouse button only does a jump and mauling execution. There was another where he jumps on it's prey and eats it, like when you devour a heart, but while the target is still alive, but I forgot which button combo does that. Right mouse button holding, I guess?
Hell I’ve been playing for like 2-4 years now and I just learned about the head pop one a few weeks ago by accident and didn’t even know how I did it till now 😂 (I was literally mashing buttons while surrounded by a large group of enemies)
I'm planning on getting skyrim on PC soon, this is a nice tip for me since i LOVE being a werewolf, I don't use it as much as I'd love to, but I LOVE being one, knowing the power i can hold
Holy shit! Using the werewolf form during the scripted sequence to kill Nazeem is the best thing I've seen. I usually just skip it but I'm gonna start doing that. In fact, making a new Nord character. Thanks Nerbit!
At level three, aside from inheritance letters, not a single scenario comes to mind where a courier would approach you this early. That one wasn't looking for you, you just happened to find a random encounter courier carrying letters.
Well, there are quite a few quest based ones. None that I can think of that Nerbit did, and yeah, that courier was the random encounter one- the actual courier is essential and the random one isn't. But nah, technically the Dark Brotherhood can send you a letter at level 1.
I liked the addition of the Werewolf rings from the Dragonborn DLC -made the Werewolf more fun to play. I did a whole roleplay as a Van Helsing character in Skyrim, crossbow and one handed with werewolf so that I could recreate that iconic Van Helsing fight between Dracula and Wolfman!!
@@KaimArgonarEyyyywhat he meant is that he both used a crossbow sometimes and his main skill tree was one handed and would sometimes take out a one handed weapon
@KaimArgonarEyyyy Crossbow and one-handed, not one-handed crossbow. Though there is a mod that adds a wrist-mounted crossbow. Ashihito Armory. It doesn't just do that, but that's one of the things it adds.
I love playing as a werewolf. The first thing I do after getting the ability is to get the cursed ring of Hircine (which randomly turns you into a werewolf) and don’t get the curse lifted until after I kill Alduin. I like the RP of a random, uncontrolled werewolf transformation ruining your day, and not mastering it until later on
@@AutumnSwift2 see, that’s what I love about it. That thrill, the risk of going into a major city with the threat of a transformation lingering over your head. I love the drama and chaos it causes if you do transform, and every time you make it thru without turning, feels like a win haha
Quick tip for anyone else wanting to try this: the sprinting attack as a werewolf is absolutely broken. You can stunlock and kill any dragon on the ground with it very quickly. Smaller enemies will be ragdolled by it.
FYI: Vegetable Soup gives you several minutes of slow Health and Stamina restoration that will continue working in Beast Form. The regeneration from the Lady Stone still applies too. Alteration is also super useful to werewolves. Flesh spells still apply to Beast Form for their duration and since you count as unarmored (despite post-Dawnguard Beast Form receiving a level-based armor bonus), the Mage Armor perks are actually good for it. The Magic Resistance and Atronach perks still apply too. The benefits of eating a corpse with the Ring of Namira carry over into Beast Form too. Just be careful because you can't eat a corpse with the Ring and then eat it again as a werewolf or vice-versa. You can only do one thing per corpse.
apparently you can't regenerate health as a werewolf at all as it has set to 0 unless you equip the Ring of the Hunt, which enables regeneration and thus making additional health regen effects stackable
@@sigmazeta2044 I got confused about the Lady Stone because it works in Vampire Lord. Vegetable Soup will still work in Beast form though as it's not a regen buff, it's very slow healing
This is a game where you can murder a deer in cold blood, and its ghost will send you on a quest to do it in the exact same way to people that were already planning on killing it themselves. This feels like an especially odd dream.
@@sliggoomaster7213It's an actual quest. Ill met by Moonlight. And if you aren't familiar with the quest's name, it's the quest where Sinding gives you the cursed Ring of Hircine and has you hunt down a white stag to beg Hircine's favor. The one where you are told by the aspect of Hircine (in the form of a spectral white stag) to hunt down Sinding. Which culminates in you either killing and skinning Sinding (to get the Savior's Hide), or hunting with Sinding (getting the uncursed Ring of Hircine).
@@agrithdragonflame3775not sure if it’s a bug but if you go back and kill sinding after getting the ring you get the hide as well (it’s worked for me on a ps3 and a switch so)
Considering Sovengarde clearly takes influence from Valhalla, an afterlife entirely defined by glory in combat; I'm actually not _that_ surprised seeing its inhabitants be cool with a werewolf considering there's not much more glorious than transforming into the spitting image of nature's savagery and laying waste to everything around you.
@therealsneezuschrist that downside only exists if you’re a Nord. Besides, Hircine’s Hunting Grounds are probably one of the best afterlives you could have in the Elder Scrolls, provided you are sent there as predator and not prey.
@@astercat49 Even if you're prey you'll eventually become a hunter and if you die the second you close your eyes youll be back in the wilds of Hircines Hunting Grounds the next moment, or potentially granted the beast form by Hircine.
most likely the courier you came across was not the same one as the one that gives you letters. There is a random encounter where a random courier spawns, his only line of dialogue is "I-important deliveries to make, no time for chatting." killing him or pickpocketing him reveals he has some books and a letter that will mark... something on your map, admittedly I never actually read any of the letters.
I just killed the courier today after i got a letter, i feel like I'm crazy with everyone acting like it's widespread knowledge the courier is an essential
23:10 Too late to give you advice now, but for anyone trying this build at home: your running power attack as a werewolf is SO much more powerful than your standing one, and it's what you need to get Alduin and other dragons down after just one dragonrend. It's also great against other tough enemies like dragon priests so you don't have to rely on them bugging out to kill them. It also staggers, so you have both defense and offense in one.
16:21 there is a random event were you can find a courier delivering packages to someone not yourself. he is non-essential, and either pickpocketing or killing and looting the letter he's carrying will give you a misc objective. i've only seen it once or twice, i think the objective was to clear out a bandit fort.
Oh you gotta try the hybrid glitch so you become a vampire *lord* remember you have to be a vampire *lord* not a regular vampire for this glitch to work so you progress along the regular companion quest line until you get to the under forge and then as you drink from the blood fountain to gain beast form you activate vampire lord and if you did it right when you exit the cave as a werewolf you will burst in a concave of blood and transform into a vampire lord then bam your a werewolf vampire hybrid
I haven't done the Thalmor Embassy in beast form, but on my first playthrough (which was, like yours, as a werewolf) I did the quest for the old woman in Whiterun to rescue her son from the Thalmor fortress near Castle Volkihar - and ripping through that place in beast form was tons of fun :)
Suggestion for a character/historical figure run: “Can you beat Fallout New Vegas as general Douglas MacArthur?” A bit of context: MacArthur was a US general who was famously fired during the Korean War after he revealed that his plan to win the war was to launch a massive tactical nuke attack at the border between the Korean Peninsula and China. His idea was to turn the area into a wasteland to prevent troops and aid to make it to the peninsula. This caused a massive drama both in the US and internationally, so to prevent things from getting worst MacArthur was fired. Basically this would be a Fat Man focus run. That’s why I suggested New Vegas BTW, as the Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC let’s you buy different types of mini nukes. Hopefully this helps to make the challenge more than a pacifist run with extra steps, plus the variety of explosions might help to make the experience less repetitive, and maybe even tactical as each type of mini nuke have different aspects. And yes, this would be one of those runs that is less about beating the game, but rather the shenanigans that ensure while using such an OP weapon. In a previous comment someone asked me if MacArthur ever used a .45 (aka the famous 1911 pistol), this let me down a rabbit hole regarding the generals career. Basically despite his willingness to use nukes and being in the military, MacArthur was never a “gun guy”, so he only carried a hand gun for self defence, a gun that during the years changed. First it was a .38 revolver, he used it during the US intervention in the Mexican revolution of the early 1910’s; when he was send to France to fight in WW1 he received and used a 1911 pistol (thought there aren’t any photos of him with the gun); finally between the world wars and all the way to when he fas fired, he used a .32 semi automatic pocket pistol. Checking and the Fallout New Vegas wiki, there are several revolvers -“.357 Magnum”, “Lucky”, “Police Pistol” (I accidentally thought this was a .32 in my previous attempts) should do the trick for the .38. As for the 1911, since the “.45 automatic pistol” and it’s unique variant “A Light Shining in Darkness” from the “Honest Hearts” DLC are 1911 that isn’t a problem. However without mods, there isn’t anything in NV similar to a .32 pistol pocket pistol, however you could use the 9mm or the 5.56mm since as they are the most similar in calibre to a .32 = 8.128mm. Since MacArthur had a .32 when developing his nuclear addiction, I would say the only pistol you should use from the list is the .32 equivalent. That being said, I think switching between pistols would make the challenge more ridiculous than what it is already. If not I think getting both “Lucky” and “A Light Shining in Darkness” should be extra objectives for the run. As for the look? The best I can think of is to get general Oliver’s uniform (boots and cap included) and complement it with some massive sunglasses and a smoking pipe, though for that last one anything relatively close to it should do the trick. That being said someone pointed out to me that the Lonesome Road DLC has the “US Army General outfit”, problem is that outfit is dominated by a trench coat (making it very WW1ish), while general Oliver’s clothes more closely resembles what MacArthur used to wear. Someone also mentioned that one of the requirements of the run should be to complete the Lonesome Road DLC, or just detonate all the nukes in it. I would also suggest collecting all 14 of the normal mini nukes that are in the base game, though I feel like that it might be a bit boring compared to everything else on the run. You should also keep in mind that even though MacArthur worked for the government (US army), he was appointed Chief of Staff of the Army by millionaire turn president Herbert Hoover. So you can either work with the NCR or Mr. House. Attempt: 8
Skyrim as a Werewolf. Yeah, I love playing as a Warewolf. And you playing as a cat turning into a dog is pretty funny and entertaining. I actually killed Harkon in his boss fight at the end of the Dawnguard DLC as a Warewolf in my latest playthrough. So that is something funny and cool you can do as a Warewolf.
@@MumwaW I just attacked him over and over again, killed his gargoyles, and attacked him again until he died. Remember, you can give him the bow and still kill him, it's just a little harder to do so. I just went ham and mauled him to death with fang and claw. Easy and poetic win to kill the final Vampire boss as the Vampire's tradition arch enemy, the Warewolf.
Fun fact, activating werewolf transformation, then talking with a follower to exchange items right before you shift (so that when the trade window opens you're a werewolf suddenly), you can then have them hold your rings/amulets, then go and hit "equip" on all of them from their inventory, which will let you wear as many as you want. Because it Just Works.
Here's a tip Farcas will always give you "clear a location" quests Aela will always give you the animal quests and I have yet to test the other members of the companions, but both companions outside of story missions will give you those types of quests.
I like how it is basically guaranteed that in Bethesda games, even when you are a giant bloodthirsty wolf, it will still be inconsistent wether or not they will aggro on properly, or just be cool/unaware of you.
I once did a full playthrough of all questlines as a werewolf and learned a cool feature of the rings. If you equip the frostmoon ring you want the buff from, then switch to the ring of hircine, you will still keep the buff when transformed. Btw, the courier that appears on the roads is different than the one that gives the player letters, and is not essential.
"Ahh, ahh. Please... Help us... Ah... " "An unsightly beast, a great terror looms!" "Nerbit the Accursed is coming." "Have mercy... Have mercy upon us all." You know, there's probably a ton of other Werewolf or beast references I could've used. Bladewolf, Blaidd, Sonic Unleashed, even Turning Red (kinda). But Bloodborne was probably the most fitting. Why? Simple. It gave me an idea for another Souls run. *Can You Beat Bloodborne as a Werewolf?* Beast Claw and Beast's Embrace rune only. (Also, don't be suprised you killed the Courier, they're only immune to bullets to the face, not werewolf claws)
Hey Nerbit! Fantastic job! (as usual) I've literally spent hours watching all your videos when I first discovered your channel- and I. Regret. Nothing. You are amazing, and I look forward to your uploads every week!! Since I am ACTUALLY early for once, I'll post all the ideas I have wanted to for a while 😅 1. Can you beat FO4 with the Mysterious Stranger? I'm not sure if this challenge can be completed satisfactorily in the other Fallout Games, but it might be possible in FO4 using the Prototype Railway Rifle, as the damage is too low to kill anyone feasibly. Yea, you would have to keep the Choo-choo boys alive for a while, but once you have the gun, run them over :) 2. Can you beat FO4 as Sierra Petrovita? You don't necessarily use her weapons but feel free to use anything listed under "Products" on the Nuka-Cola Corporation Wiki page. Ofc healing only by nuka-cola and variants. 3. Oh, and just an addition, in Fallout: New Vegas next time you don't want the platinum chip or to raise your Science Skill, you can use the Lucky 38 VIP keycards. There are 2 in the game: on Chief Hanlon's desk and on Mr House's brother's desk.
I love how you tried to help Kodiak by sending all of his friends to the wrong afterlife… lol Your kind gesture will go unappreciated because they aren’t even going to Sovengarde… oh well. It’s the thought that counts! I’m sure Kodiak saw your act of kindness and it warmed his heart anyway.
Alteration perks are a good choice for werewolf. Combined with the blessing of Mara and The Lord Stone, you can have 70% magic resistance while a werewolf. You can also cast defense spells right before transforming for up to +300 defense with mage armor, or 80% flat reduction (for less time) with master Alteration.
Tip for anyone trying this, any spells or abilities that affect your base character carry over to the wolf form. So stuff like Orc Rage, Oakflesh and similar stuff that effects unarmed, damage resistance… etc. so it’s possible to have a pretty hardcore tanky wolf form, if you can use your Berserker Rage, cast some high level DR boosting spells and quickly transform and take full advantage of that minute of solid psychotic chaos! With Berserker Rage and the Bloodlust ring, you do 4X DAMAGE! and you take 100% dmg! No penalty! So if you’re getting swarmed, boost DR… If you’re getting hit by spells, boost your magic resistance.. wanna do some mystical damage, use elemental cloaks! etc. Just experiment and try stuff out, because veggie soup and other food bonuses carry over, long duration healing works, a handful of shouts and standing stones work as well! You can literally enter a stronghold as a magical, gleaming, flaming, berserk werewolf! Imagine a monster that’s just slaughtering everyone with flaming claws as arrows and axes bounce harmlessly off its gleaming hide as it screams and howls with such fearsome rage that you just lay down and die. That’s possible. Or perhaps you feel an ice cold chill like the grip of death… you’re a true Nord, you know cold… but this… this is different. This sends a chill down to your soul, it terrifies you. As you clench your jaw to keep your teeth from chattering and stand tall to keep your wobbling knees from buckling, you hear a sound.. a sound even colder and sharper than a winter icicle directly to the skull… “HAWOOOOOOOOOORGGH!” As you turn to face the sound, you hesitate… paralyzed by fear as your body begins to freeze solid where you stand and then a massive clawed hand explodes through your chest. You barely feel the pain. You almost feel… relief. You look down and see the clawed hand gripping your heart and you take your last ragged half-breath as you watch your heart shatter like ice in the powerful hand and then you’re halfway to Sovengarde as your body shatters and falls to the floor. Before you have time to look down on your brothers they join you, one by one at your side drifting through the aurora towards The Hall of Valor for mead and tales of adventure. You think to look back as you hear the sounds of roaring, clashing steel and gnashing teeth but the great hall looks so warm and inviting and Tsun awaits to welcome you. As centuries pass and many parties, hunts and fights have been had a new warrior enters Sovengarde and asks how you died. “Quite a spooky story, actually…” and you call around your brothers to piece together to tale of “The Black Blizzard”! “It was a wolf cloaked in the icy squall of death, who came one night and one by one slaughtered us all. It walked at the center of a small blizzard, making it nigh on impossible to get close to the beast… not that it would matter. It had fur like plate armor, and claws like Skyforge steel! It showed no mercy and feasted on the frozen remains of those who fell to his mighty claws. Also, it smelled like fresh vegetable soup which is confusing because it clearly was not a vegetarian. But anyway… Gunnar totally screamed like a baby girl and I’m pretty sure Erik just ran away! Ahahaha! Mikael put up a really good fight, actually.. until …his head was ripped off. Oh, me? Oh I was on guard duty and died first. Hahaha the damned beast ripped my heart clean out of my hairy Nord chest! Bahaha! So, what about you?” “Oh, I mocked the Dragonborn and he told me to go fuck myself so hard I flew off the side of a mountain…”
I super enjoyed this run! There's just something fascinating at seeing you manage this as a catdog. It's interesting seeing where the mechanics do and don't cause issues, too. (You have absolutely fulfilled the dreams of many players re: Nazim.)
I'm not gonna lie, when _It Has To Be This Way_ started playing during the Alduin fight, I thought it would lead to a gag where you're slashing away at him to about the same effect as Raiden punching Armstrong.
First video of yours I'm watching and I can't help but feel under the commentary I can hear the unmistakable music of first Fable game (Lost Chapters/Anniversary)
theres actually 2 couriers in the game the one that comes and gives you letters in the middle of nowhere and is essential, and the one that you killed who is non-essential and contains a letter on his person that leads you to a small radiant quest (this one is a random encounter and can spawn multiple times in a run)
I just want to say thank you for the normalcy you bring into my life with the consistent uploads and the hilarity of some moments. My dad's going through some health issues, and this was a breath of fresh air with the craziness that's been going on. Keep up the good work man!
@@Nerbit13098So, in honor of all dad's, Can you Beat *insert Bethesda game here* as a dad? Must have a child, doesn't have to be yours, jokes as often as possible, DIY's your own things, and is great at grilling foods
8:41 there's a lore reason for Wuuthrad being effective against elves. When the Atmorans first migrated to Skyrim, the Snow Elves were in charge. They didn't mind the humans and everyone got along fine, so the humans created the settlement of Saarthal. At some point during Saarthal's construction, the humans discovered the Eye of Magnus, and tried to bury it. The Snow Elves found out about the artifact, and went from friendly neighbors to genocidal maniacs in a heartbeat. They slaughtered everyone in the settlement while trying to find the Eye, and only Ysgramor and his sons survived. They fled back to Atmora, rounded up a bunch of warriors, then came back to Skyrim and declared war on the Snow Elves. Never forget, elves are bastards. The Altmer are bastards, the Dunmer are bastards, the Dwemer were _super_ bastards, and the Falmer were/are bastards. Bosmer and Orsimer are alright, but they're the exceptions.
I love running Lycanthropy, and have a couple of critiques. First, passive resistances from Standing Stones apply. Lord and Atronach are great, and work well with Breton blood. Second, passive magic resistance from the Alteration tree apply, including Atronach. Overcasting water breathing is also a cheeky way to grind levels and give yourself more health and stamina. Last, I actually prefer to get the whole right side of the perk tree, before finishing the damage buff perks, then getting the other Roar perks. The ability to feed on everything shy of undead is fantastic.
You should consider doing a run as Dracula from castlevania. It would allow you to use the vampire form as his "second phase" and many of his abilities could be adapted from existing Skyrim spells: Fireball = Dracula's flame barrage Fire rune = Dracula's Flame pillars Become Ethereal shout = Dracula's Teleport There are a few more moves, but this would ultimately be an interesting run with restricted abilities, yet still open enough to allow unique playstyles. The only other restriction would be, of course, complete the dawnguard questline on the vampires side. :)
I just thought with the abundance of rodent pokemon of several types the run should be fun. Also Pied Piper build would have been the name especially since Violet has the amazing self replicating mouse as a rare Pokemon.
There is a somewhat rare alternate version of the courier which is the one you encountered. They have a note on there corpse that marks a random location on your map
You can use a glitch to wear multiple rings and necklaces thats how you get infinite shouts so you could have werewolf bonuses and ring of hircine plus you needed the werewolf or vampire transformations to do it
Hi Nerbit, unfortunately the courier kill was not that big of a deal. There are actually two types of Couriers. One being the „I was looking for you“ unkillable kind that WILL ignore your wolf form. The Kind you killed was a random encounter where a courier delivers a mail to a random Hold with barely information in it. Usually some kind of vague „Yeah we have the box“ and then a side quests starts. These are easily killable and most likely the kind you met on the road
You should have used growl with this run. It would have let you start out as a werewolf and might have been a little op. But they also send silver hand after you... you know like actual werewolf hunters should. I mean it also opens up the option for "can you beat slyrim as a werebear".
Can’t you become a werewolf outside the companions quest by getting the cursed ring of hircene and having a random transformation happen? Edit: Never mind looked it up it doesn’t was confusing it for a mod that allows you to use the ring without being a werewolf
@@someone24688Yeah, it's supposed to. Having said that, it's bugged and does absolutely nothing if you're not a werewolf. Also that effect never triggers even if you ARE a werewolf.
Challenge Run Idea: "Can You Beat Fallout 3 as Allistair Tenpenny" - Can only use a sniper rifle as a weapon. - Have to get enough caps to be considered "rich". (Been a while since I played 3, so I'd say minimum at least 10-20k caps at the end of the game.) - Any instance where you can hire someone else to do something for you, or make a business decision such as investing wisely, you have to take. - Must fully upgrade the Tenpenny Tower player home. Other rules/restrictions are up to you to decide. I'd say that you could hire companions but that may make the run too easy, so maybe either don't hire them, or implement a restriction such as only being able to use them for a single quest or event.

One of my favorite playthroughs was "project: metalbeast". A werewolf playthrough, but I also level up alteration so I can armor up before I transform, plus the added magic resistance from the alteration tree. Also IIRC you can drink potions/eat food as long as you assign them to your quick bar or whatever it's called. I guzzled vegetable soup for infinite stamina.

My guess is that Nerbit didn't leave a body to be displayed... But the alternative is funnier.
The SECOND Nerbit said "There are no repercussions for murdering anyone here, as they didn't witness my transformation, and therefore they have no way to pin it on me. With that in mind, I had one very specific goal", I knew exactly who he was talking about. XD

Fun fact: not only does the khajiit Khajiitclaws bonus not stack onto your werewolf form, the base werewolf unarmed damage is actually less than the Khajiit with the claws bonus. So at low levels, an unarmed Khajiit actually hits harder than a werewolf.

"without glitches"
ah. alright. figured a sneak bow attack with a potent poison effect would be it, but whatevs.
@@KeithElliott-zd8cx I said glitchless because this is strongest attack you can achieve without breaking the game. Your bow attack with poison that does 500 damage, 100 lingering poison for 10 seconds and 150 ravage health aint "glitchless".
@@ExtremeMan10 To be fair, it’s hard to play Skyrim at all glitchless. I found fortify restoration accidentally when I first played in 2013
@@ExtremeMan10 wdym, daedra bow with smithing perks, archery and sneak should by itself do like 500 damage on sneak attack. So I am little bit confused, as you can also use a Philter of True Shot (the sold/found one) with 40% increased damage which is multiplicative.
Math:
Daedric Bow - 19 base damage according to the Skyrim Fandom Wiki. Overdraw perk doubles it, so 38. Fortify Smithing gear (like Silver-Blood Family Ring and The Forgemaster's Fingers - results in 27% increase, Blacksmiths appron with bonus also exists) +Blacksmith's Elixir (50% more effectivness)+ Black Book - Seeker of Might (provides the 10% bonus to smithing skill) results in 86 base damage bow according to the "Weapon damage calculator" by PRIMALmarauder . On top of that, Fortify Archery enchantment also exists with up to 40% increase per piece of gear (head, hands, ring, necklace - a generic one, can be bought from merchants), which would result in the 187 base damage on hit with daedric arrows equipped. This does not include the Ancient knowledge (15% increase to the smithing effects; its a bugged passive), above mentioned arcane blacksmiths appron with fortify smithing enchantment (comes in Amber and Madness Smithing addon from Creation Club, included in the Anniversary Edition). Now apply the sneak multiplier (x3) and boom, you oneshot the dragons at the priest burial sites like Shearpoint while being a reasonable level of about 30 with no points in alchemy and enchanting. If you play orc, they have a bonus to smithing on top of that.
As you can see, if you go up to level 50 and you get enchanting and alchemy perks, it will be much more obscure, even without Restoration glitch. With proper setup, the base damage can be easily doubled, resulting in about 1k damage per sneak attack (3 shots to kill Ancient Dragon).
Moreover, daggers are even more obscure if the hit is a sneak attack.
P.S: With resto glitch, you can go over the integer, just see Spiffing Brit´s videos.
@@ExtremeMan10
Actual sneak dagger build has any viable dagger doing 100-150 damage from blacksmithing and one-handed perks as well as blacksmith elixir, times 30 because of assassin's blade perk and shrouded gloves enchantment for 3,000-4,500 damage, low balled duel enchanting of drain health for 25 pts, and paralysis for 2 seconds for funsies, and then we'll use the bought deadly poison for 65 damage.
One-handed perks duel flurry for 35% attack speed and duel savagery for 50% power attack damage. 80% damage increase easy from enchantments to one-handed from boots, amulet, and 2 rings. Each enchanted item you could put on fortify health as well for about 40-50 points, or further boost your sneak. High damage build with fortify health or sneak, health drain and paralysis making you virtually unkillable. The werewolf lunge attack I doubt does anywhere near the 5k+ damage and has nowhere near the survivability.
Imagine being Kodlak getting rid of his Werewolf form to go to Sovngarde just for the rookie to show up in his Werewolf form.

Don’t you get sent to the hunting grounds As a werewolf?
Cool mod idea: each race has a unique werewolf transformation. Khajit is a like lion looking werewolf, argonian looks similar to a deathclaw or a gatorclaw, nords have pale white/blond fur, orcs are like horrifying werewolf creatures with multiple layers of teeth, etc
…shit. You have an actual point.
I’ve seen ones for argonians and khajit. But I’ve never seen one like the orc. I don’t think orcs get enough love from mods.
Alternatively, nords could become werebears. I’m not sure if that’s already a transformation, though. I know it’s an enemy.
The Red Guards look like coyotes or dingoes and the forest elves look like Chihuahuas.
It would not be more accurate that the Khahites are like the Saber Cats but somewhat more humanoid
I love that the last fight establishes that Tsun COULD join the fight against Alduin to save the world, nothing is stopping him. He just doesn't feel like it, unless Alduin attacks him personally.
Alduin: *accidentally hits tsun with an attack*
Tsun: and I took that personally
Mortal world? Easy come, easy go. He’s got a bridge to guard.
@@Allantitan Alduin: *accidentally hits Tsun with an attack*
Tsun: So you've chosen... Death
That actually happened to me, tsun got hit with fire, and absolutely fucked up alduin
I think it’s cause, as the guardian of the bridge, he cannot start a fight unless he gets attacked or someone tries to pass. Which seems like the kinda divine weirdness common in Skyrim
I'm a big fan of using the Werewolf Form for the Dark Brotherhood quests. Transform some distance from the town, sprint in, maul your target to death, sprint out.
Man, these completely random werewolf attacks. That's the 7th one this week. Strange that they always happen in different towns.
I’m pretty sure that’s what astrids boyfriend does because otherwise he isn’t doing anything for the dark brotherhood
If you own a home in that town, you can transform inside your house and nobody will be the wiser. How exactly does a werewolf have the key to that structure? Bah, none of my business, move along.
Festus would be very proud, he says that his style is 'walk in, melt their skin off, and run like the wind'
i do the same thing sometimes it seems like the only thing you really can do if you’re not a stealth archer
The Alteration skill tree actually synergizes really well with lycanthropy. Not only do armor spells carry over to beast mode (and benefit from Mage Armor when they do) but the Atronach perk does too. Also the Atronach Stone or Lord Stone are really good too.
Oooh.. this is interesting! I was planning a Werewolf Mage run and this could help a ton!
I want to make a squishy mage with a dark secret when he gets angry.. when he runs out of magic or gets pushed too far he rages out and kills everything with his bare claws and teeth.
Do you have any more information on this or anywhere I can look? I’ve never really messed with alteration magic before, I usually stick with destruction or summons.. alteration is like enhancing armor and weapons and stuff, right?
@@DanteYewToob Most of this is off the UESP wiki and I haven't really messed with it myself much.
When you transform you lose any passive racial bonuses (since your race is temporarily turned into "werewolf") and any equipment bonuses too. But you'll keep the effects of any buffs you cast or activate ahead of time and any static effects from perks or standing stones. As Nerbit mentioned you can activate an Orc's Berserker Rage or Breton's Dragonskin abilities and they'll stay active. Armor spells like Stoneflesh will stay active, and if you dual cast them with the Stability perk they'll last a lot longer and if you take the Mage Armor perk they'll be stronger since werewolves don't wear armor. Most perks aren't going to do much of anything, but Magic Resistance and the Atronach perk will make dealing with other mages a lot easier.
The cloak spells can be used too.
Oh and vegetable soup can be used to give yourself some health regen if you need it.

So, the record-scratch glitch (great name btw), is likely caused by your character initiating a finisher animation but there not being enough room to fit the models. So the game takes a second to recalculate and places your and your victim in the nearest space that doesn't cause collision issues.
It can happen on regular finishers too, except much faster because the models are much smaller. A werewolf's frame is quite large and is more horizontal when finishing, due to the hunched over nature of the mauling attack.
Did not know this about that glitch l. Still good to know
I think it might actually just be bugged. Killed a few reavers on mostly flat ground, and it still froze for the same amount of time
It took me YEARS to realise that Werewolf fighting system is tied to finisher animation and by finishing off with a particular combo of buttons, you get different finisher animation. I've played skyrim since release in 2011, and only 10 years later, in 2021, I realised there's a head pop execution!
I love this transformation so-so much. Truly, Skyrim is a game where you learn something new with every playthrough.
THERES A FUCKEN HEAD POP EXECUTION?!
@@hereticFox716 Yes. It happens if you press both left and right mouse buttons simultaneously when the opponent is at critically low health.
Holding Left mouse button only does a jump and mauling execution.
There was another where he jumps on it's prey and eats it, like when you devour a heart, but while the target is still alive, but I forgot which button combo does that.
Right mouse button holding, I guess?
@@YourContractHasExpired I think right mouse holding is the toss to the side kill animation
Hell I’ve been playing for like 2-4 years now and I just learned about the head pop one a few weeks ago by accident and didn’t even know how I did it till now 😂 (I was literally mashing buttons while surrounded by a large group of enemies)

At level three, aside from inheritance letters, not a single scenario comes to mind where a courier would approach you this early. That one wasn't looking for you, you just happened to find a random encounter courier carrying letters.
Well, there are quite a few quest based ones. None that I can think of that Nerbit did, and yeah, that courier was the random encounter one- the actual courier is essential and the random one isn't. But nah, technically the Dark Brotherhood can send you a letter at level 1.
I liked the addition of the Werewolf rings from the Dragonborn DLC -made the Werewolf more fun to play. I did a whole roleplay as a Van Helsing character in Skyrim, crossbow and one handed with werewolf so that I could recreate that iconic Van Helsing fight between Dracula and Wolfman!!
Now that's a good idea
1-handed crossbow? Is there a proper mod for such a thing now, or are they still just re-skinned staffs?

I love playing as a werewolf. The first thing I do after getting the ability is to get the cursed ring of Hircine (which randomly turns you into a werewolf) and don’t get the curse lifted until after I kill Alduin. I like the RP of a random, uncontrolled werewolf transformation ruining your day, and not mastering it until later on

"I've got lots of human shaped health potions" Never change Nerbit.
Quick tip for anyone else wanting to try this: the sprinting attack as a werewolf is absolutely broken. You can stunlock and kill any dragon on the ground with it very quickly. Smaller enemies will be ragdolled by it.
Even the regular one-handed (walking) power attack will ragdoll small enemies, great for crowd control.
FYI: Vegetable Soup gives you several minutes of slow Health and Stamina restoration that will continue working in Beast Form. The regeneration from the Lady Stone still applies too.
Alteration is also super useful to werewolves. Flesh spells still apply to Beast Form for their duration and since you count as unarmored (despite post-Dawnguard Beast Form receiving a level-based armor bonus), the Mage Armor perks are actually good for it. The Magic Resistance and Atronach perks still apply too.
The benefits of eating a corpse with the Ring of Namira carry over into Beast Form too. Just be careful because you can't eat a corpse with the Ring and then eat it again as a werewolf or vice-versa. You can only do one thing per corpse.
apparently you can't regenerate health as a werewolf at all as it has set to 0 unless you equip the Ring of the Hunt, which enables regeneration and thus making additional health regen effects stackable
@@sigmazeta2044 I got confused about the Lady Stone because it works in Vampire Lord. Vegetable Soup will still work in Beast form though as it's not a regen buff, it's very slow healing
This is a game where you can murder a deer in cold blood, and its ghost will send you on a quest to do it in the exact same way to people that were already planning on killing it themselves. This feels like an especially odd dream.

@@sliggoomaster7213It's an actual quest. Ill met by Moonlight.

The one where you are told by the aspect of Hircine (in the form of a spectral white stag) to hunt down Sinding. Which culminates in you either killing and skinning Sinding (to get the Savior's Hide), or hunting with Sinding (getting the uncursed Ring of Hircine).
@@agrithdragonflame3775not sure if it’s a bug but if you go back and kill sinding after getting the ring you get the hide as well (it’s worked for me on a ps3 and a switch so)

Considering Sovengarde clearly takes influence from Valhalla, an afterlife entirely defined by glory in combat; I'm actually not _that_ surprised seeing its inhabitants be cool with a werewolf considering there's not much more glorious than transforming into the spitting image of nature's savagery and laying waste to everything around you.
But the downside of your a wearwolf you don't get to go to sovingaurd

26:56 That whistle was a very nice touch. A man of culture, I see.
most likely the courier you came across was not the same one as the one that gives you letters. There is a random encounter where a random courier spawns, his only line of dialogue is "I-important deliveries to make, no time for chatting." killing him or pickpocketing him reveals he has some books and a letter that will mark... something on your map, admittedly I never actually read any of the letters.
He's a random encounter???
I just killed the courier today after i got a letter, i feel like I'm crazy with everyone acting like it's widespread knowledge the courier is an essential
23:10 Too late to give you advice now, but for anyone trying this build at home: your running power attack as a werewolf is SO much more powerful than your standing one, and it's what you need to get Alduin and other dragons down after just one dragonrend. It's also great against other tough enemies like dragon priests so you don't have to rely on them bugging out to kill them. It also staggers, so you have both defense and offense in one.
I've 1 or 2 hit bosses by accident, ran up to them because I kept dying and boom dead within seconds.
If you have to rely on the dragonpriests bugging out, then you have failed to properly abuse geometry.
Nord propaganda be like
You can stunlock Alduin with the werewolves sprint attack, if you've got enough stamina.
(Or eat some vegetable soup before transforming, I suppose)
Mmm vegetable soup
Alduin would likely be very confused watching a werewolf just chug a bowl of soup. Lol.
16:21 there is a random event were you can find a courier delivering packages to someone not yourself. he is non-essential, and either pickpocketing or killing and looting the letter he's carrying will give you a misc objective. i've only seen it once or twice, i think the objective was to clear out a bandit fort.
Highlight of every Friday. Looking forward to this'n, don't think I've ever bothered screwing around with the werewolf stuff.
Oh you gotta try the hybrid glitch so you become a vampire *lord* remember you have to be a vampire *lord* not a regular vampire for this glitch to work so you progress along the regular companion quest line until you get to the under forge and then as you drink from the blood fountain to gain beast form you activate vampire lord and if you did it right when you exit the cave as a werewolf you will burst in a concave of blood and transform into a vampire lord then bam your a werewolf vampire hybrid
I haven't done the Thalmor Embassy in beast form, but on my first playthrough (which was, like yours, as a werewolf) I did the quest for the old woman in Whiterun to rescue her son from the Thalmor fortress near Castle Volkihar - and ripping through that place in beast form was tons of fun :)
That was the thalmor embassy lol it's the same place
Suggestion for a character/historical figure run:
“Can you beat Fallout New Vegas as general Douglas MacArthur?”
A bit of context:
MacArthur was a US general who was famously fired during the Korean War after he revealed that his plan to win the war was to launch a massive tactical nuke attack at the border between the Korean Peninsula and China. His idea was to turn the area into a wasteland to prevent troops and aid to make it to the peninsula. This caused a massive drama both in the US and internationally, so to prevent things from getting worst MacArthur was fired.
Basically this would be a Fat Man focus run. That’s why I suggested New Vegas BTW, as the Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC let’s you buy different types of mini nukes. Hopefully this helps to make the challenge more than a pacifist run with extra steps, plus the variety of explosions might help to make the experience less repetitive, and maybe even tactical as each type of mini nuke have different aspects. And yes, this would be one of those runs that is less about beating the game, but rather the shenanigans that ensure while using such an OP weapon.
In a previous comment someone asked me if MacArthur ever used a .45 (aka the famous 1911 pistol), this let me down a rabbit hole regarding the generals career. Basically despite his willingness to use nukes and being in the military, MacArthur was never a “gun guy”, so he only carried a hand gun for self defence, a gun that during the years changed. First it was a .38 revolver, he used it during the US intervention in the Mexican revolution of the early 1910’s; when he was send to France to fight in WW1 he received and used a 1911 pistol (thought there aren’t any photos of him with the gun); finally between the world wars and all the way to when he fas fired, he used a .32 semi automatic pocket pistol.
Checking and the Fallout New Vegas wiki, there are several revolvers -“.357 Magnum”, “Lucky”, “Police Pistol” (I accidentally thought this was a .32 in my previous attempts) should do the trick for the .38. As for the 1911, since the “.45 automatic pistol” and it’s unique variant “A Light Shining in Darkness” from the “Honest Hearts” DLC are 1911 that isn’t a problem. However without mods, there isn’t anything in NV similar to a .32 pistol pocket pistol, however you could use the 9mm or the 5.56mm since as they are the most similar in calibre to a .32 = 8.128mm.
Since MacArthur had a .32 when developing his nuclear addiction, I would say the only pistol you should use from the list is the .32 equivalent. That being said, I think switching between pistols would make the challenge more ridiculous than what it is already. If not I think getting both “Lucky” and “A Light Shining in Darkness” should be extra objectives for the run.
As for the look? The best I can think of is to get general Oliver’s uniform (boots and cap included) and complement it with some massive sunglasses and a smoking pipe, though for that last one anything relatively close to it should do the trick. That being said someone pointed out to me that the Lonesome Road DLC has the “US Army General outfit”, problem is that outfit is dominated by a trench coat (making it very WW1ish), while general Oliver’s clothes more closely resembles what MacArthur used to wear.
Someone also mentioned that one of the requirements of the run should be to complete the Lonesome Road DLC, or just detonate all the nukes in it. I would also suggest collecting all 14 of the normal mini nukes that are in the base game, though I feel like that it might be a bit boring compared to everything else on the run.
You should also keep in mind that even though MacArthur worked for the government (US army), he was appointed Chief of Staff of the Army by millionaire turn president Herbert Hoover. So you can either work with the NCR or Mr. House.

(Also, don't be suprised you killed the Courier, they're only immune to bullets to the face, not werewolf claws)
I cannot tell you how happy it makes me to hear Pumpkin Hill in the background of videos that I watch. And it seems to happen a pretty good amount
Hey Nerbit! Fantastic job! (as usual) I've literally spent hours watching all your videos when I first discovered your channel- and I. Regret. Nothing. You are amazing, and I look forward to your uploads every week!!
Since I am ACTUALLY early for once, I'll post all the ideas I have wanted to for a while 😅
1. Can you beat FO4 with the Mysterious Stranger? I'm not sure if this challenge can be completed satisfactorily in the other Fallout Games, but it might be possible in FO4 using the Prototype Railway Rifle, as the damage is too low to kill anyone feasibly. Yea, you would have to keep the Choo-choo boys alive for a while, but once you have the gun, run them over :)
2. Can you beat FO4 as Sierra Petrovita? You don't necessarily use her weapons but feel free to use anything listed under "Products" on the Nuka-Cola Corporation Wiki page. Ofc healing only by nuka-cola and variants.
3. Oh, and just an addition, in Fallout: New Vegas next time you don't want the platinum chip or to raise your Science Skill, you can use the Lucky 38 VIP keycards. There are 2 in the game: on Chief Hanlon's desk and on Mr House's brother's desk.
I love how you tried to help Kodiak by sending all of his friends to the wrong afterlife… lol
Your kind gesture will go unappreciated because they aren’t even going to Sovengarde… oh well. It’s the thought that counts! I’m sure Kodiak saw your act of kindness and it warmed his heart anyway.
Alteration perks are a good choice for werewolf. Combined with the blessing of Mara and The Lord Stone, you can have 70% magic resistance while a werewolf.
You can also cast defense spells right before transforming for up to +300 defense with mage armor, or 80% flat reduction (for less time) with master Alteration.
Tip for anyone trying this, any spells or abilities that affect your base character carry over to the wolf form.
So stuff like Orc Rage, Oakflesh and similar stuff that effects unarmed, damage resistance… etc.
so it’s possible to have a pretty hardcore tanky wolf form, if you can use your Berserker Rage, cast some high level DR boosting spells and quickly transform and take full advantage of that minute of solid psychotic chaos! With Berserker Rage and the Bloodlust ring, you do 4X DAMAGE! and you take 100% dmg! No penalty!
So if you’re getting swarmed, boost DR… If you’re getting hit by spells, boost your magic resistance.. wanna do some mystical damage, use elemental cloaks! etc.
Just experiment and try stuff out, because veggie soup and other food bonuses carry over, long duration healing works, a handful of shouts and standing stones work as well!
You can literally enter a stronghold as a magical, gleaming, flaming, berserk werewolf! Imagine a monster that’s just slaughtering everyone with flaming claws as arrows and axes bounce harmlessly off its gleaming hide as it screams and howls with such fearsome rage that you just lay down and die.
That’s possible.
Or perhaps you feel an ice cold chill like the grip of death… you’re a true Nord, you know cold… but this… this is different. This sends a chill down to your soul, it terrifies you. As you clench your jaw to keep your teeth from chattering and stand tall to keep your wobbling knees from buckling, you hear a sound.. a sound even colder and sharper than a winter icicle directly to the skull… “HAWOOOOOOOOOORGGH!” As you turn to face the sound, you hesitate… paralyzed by fear as your body begins to freeze solid where you stand and then a massive clawed hand explodes through your chest. You barely feel the pain. You almost feel… relief. You look down and see the clawed hand gripping your heart and you take your last ragged half-breath as you watch your heart shatter like ice in the powerful hand and then you’re halfway to Sovengarde as your body shatters and falls to the floor.
Before you have time to look down on your brothers they join you, one by one at your side drifting through the aurora towards The Hall of Valor for mead and tales of adventure.
You think to look back as you hear the sounds of roaring, clashing steel and gnashing teeth but the great hall looks so warm and inviting and Tsun awaits to welcome you.
As centuries pass and many parties, hunts and fights have been had a new warrior enters Sovengarde and asks how you died. “Quite a spooky story, actually…” and you call around your brothers to piece together to tale of “The Black Blizzard”! “It was a wolf cloaked in the icy squall of death, who came one night and one by one slaughtered us all. It walked at the center of a small blizzard, making it nigh on impossible to get close to the beast… not that it would matter. It had fur like plate armor, and claws like Skyforge steel! It showed no mercy and feasted on the frozen remains of those who fell to his mighty claws. Also, it smelled like fresh vegetable soup which is confusing because it clearly was not a vegetarian. But anyway… Gunnar totally screamed like a baby girl and I’m pretty sure Erik just ran away! Ahahaha! Mikael put up a really good fight, actually.. until …his head was ripped off. Oh, me? Oh I was on guard duty and died first. Hahaha the damned beast ripped my heart clean out of my hairy Nord chest! Bahaha! So, what about you?”
“Oh, I mocked the Dragonborn and he told me to go fuck myself so hard I flew off the side of a mountain…”
Fucking hell thats cool.
I went on a Werewolf rampage from Riften to Solitude. Managed to get almost all the perks in one go.
I super enjoyed this run! There's just something fascinating at seeing you manage this as a catdog. It's interesting seeing where the mechanics do and don't cause issues, too. (You have absolutely fulfilled the dreams of many players re: Nazim.)
I'm not gonna lie, when _It Has To Be This Way_ started playing during the Alduin fight, I thought it would lead to a gag where you're slashing away at him to about the same effect as Raiden punching Armstrong.
Nerbit : Why won't you *DIE?!?!*
Alduin : Firstborn of Akatosh, joor!
First video of yours I'm watching and I can't help but feel under the commentary I can hear the unmistakable music of first Fable game (Lost Chapters/Anniversary)
"Its special enchantment is that its racist.."
Bro this fucking sent me, the dead pan delivery was so perfect. Holy shit I cant stop cracking up.
theres actually 2 couriers in the game
the one that comes and gives you letters in the middle of nowhere and is essential, and the one that you killed who is non-essential and contains a letter on his person that leads you to a small radiant quest (this one is a random encounter and can spawn multiple times in a run)
I just want to say thank you for the normalcy you bring into my life with the consistent uploads and the hilarity of some moments. My dad's going through some health issues, and this was a breath of fresh air with the craziness that's been going on.
Keep up the good work man!
Thanks man, I hope your Dad gets better soon ❤
@@Nerbit13098Thanks man, means the world to me.
@@Nerbit13098So, in honor of all dad's, Can you Beat *insert Bethesda game here* as a dad?
Must have a child, doesn't have to be yours, jokes as often as possible, DIY's your own things, and is great at grilling foods
Adding mine to Nerbit's, I hope your dad to get better soon.
@@glennboyce7753 I hope so too, thank you!
8:41 there's a lore reason for Wuuthrad being effective against elves. When the Atmorans first migrated to Skyrim, the Snow Elves were in charge. They didn't mind the humans and everyone got along fine, so the humans created the settlement of Saarthal. At some point during Saarthal's construction, the humans discovered the Eye of Magnus, and tried to bury it. The Snow Elves found out about the artifact, and went from friendly neighbors to genocidal maniacs in a heartbeat. They slaughtered everyone in the settlement while trying to find the Eye, and only Ysgramor and his sons survived. They fled back to Atmora, rounded up a bunch of warriors, then came back to Skyrim and declared war on the Snow Elves.
Never forget, elves are bastards. The Altmer are bastards, the Dunmer are bastards, the Dwemer were _super_ bastards, and the Falmer were/are bastards. Bosmer and Orsimer are alright, but they're the exceptions.
At least falmer got what they deserve by being majorly screwed by dwemer. And those too by being fkin erased
Bosmer are also bastards, side note. Oh, and Orsimer, too.
Having said that: so are the non-Mer races.
In other words; ATHIS IS ONE OF THE GOOD ONES, WEE-HAW!
Spoken like a true son of Skyrim.
Those spider webs looked incredibly formidable. I don't know how you managed to get past them.
I love running Lycanthropy, and have a couple of critiques. First, passive resistances from Standing Stones apply. Lord and Atronach are great, and work well with Breton blood.
Second, passive magic resistance from the Alteration tree apply, including Atronach. Overcasting water breathing is also a cheeky way to grind levels and give yourself more health and stamina.
Last, I actually prefer to get the whole right side of the perk tree, before finishing the damage buff perks, then getting the other Roar perks. The ability to feed on everything shy of undead is fantastic.
Hey nerbit i just wanted to say I really enjoy the content,keep up the great work!
Hey, thanks :)
You should consider doing a run as Dracula from castlevania. It would allow you to use the vampire form as his "second phase" and many of his abilities could be adapted from existing Skyrim spells:
Fireball = Dracula's flame barrage
Fire rune = Dracula's Flame pillars
Become Ethereal shout = Dracula's Teleport
There are a few more moves, but this would ultimately be an interesting run with restricted abilities, yet still open enough to allow unique playstyles. The only other restriction would be, of course, complete the dawnguard questline on the vampires side. :)
Can you beat a Pokemon game with only rodent pokemon?
The kind rat build lol
I just thought with the abundance of rodent pokemon of several types the run should be fun. Also Pied Piper build would have been the name especially since Violet has the amazing self replicating mouse as a rare Pokemon.
“Casually promotes me to party leader before going offline forever” I felt that
Just think Nerbit did something Benny never could: kill the courier
Loved the fable music in the background, cool balverine playthrough!
That silver hand back stabbing his buddy had me dying lol
Just wanted to thank you for the nostalgia hit with the fable music btw. ❤That was a nice surprise! I also loved the video!!
There is a somewhat rare alternate version of the courier which is the one you encountered. They have a note on there corpse that marks a random location on your map
You can use a glitch to wear multiple rings and necklaces thats how you get infinite shouts so you could have werewolf bonuses and ring of hircine plus you needed the werewolf or vampire transformations to do it
This might be the closest we’ll get to a Nerbit Van Helsing challenge run.
Hi Nerbit, unfortunately the courier kill was not that big of a deal. There are actually two types of Couriers. One being the „I was looking for you“ unkillable kind that WILL ignore your wolf form. The Kind you killed was a random encounter where a courier delivers a mail to a random Hold with barely information in it. Usually some kind of vague „Yeah we have the box“ and then a side quests starts. These are easily killable and most likely the kind you met on the road
You should have used growl with this run. It would have let you start out as a werewolf and might have been a little op. But they also send silver hand after you... you know like actual werewolf hunters should.
I mean it also opens up the option for "can you beat slyrim as a werebear".
Growl?
@@hereticFox716it’s a mod
The fable music in the background tho... Awesome video homie much love
Can’t you become a werewolf outside the companions quest by getting the cursed ring of hircene and having a random transformation happen?
Edit: Never mind looked it up it doesn’t was confusing it for a mod that allows you to use the ring without being a werewolf
I thought so, but looking it up the ring actually does nothing if you don't have lycanthropy from the companions first
@@Nerbit13098 you'd think there's some other way of contracting lycanthropy, but that's where skyrim is a bit weird sometimes
@@Nerbit13098 while it is cursed it can transform you at anytime without lycanthropy but after the curse is lifted it needs lycanthropy
@@someone24688Yeah, it's supposed to. Having said that, it's bugged and does absolutely nothing if you're not a werewolf. Also that effect never triggers even if you ARE a werewolf.
Challenge Run Idea: "Can You Beat Fallout 3 as Allistair Tenpenny"
- Can only use a sniper rifle as a weapon.
- Have to get enough caps to be considered "rich". (Been a while since I played 3, so I'd say minimum at least 10-20k caps at the end of the game.)
- Any instance where you can hire someone else to do something for you, or make a business decision such as investing wisely, you have to take.
- Must fully upgrade the Tenpenny Tower player home.
Other rules/restrictions are up to you to decide. I'd say that you could hire companions but that may make the run too easy, so maybe either don't hire them, or implement a restriction such as only being able to use them for a single quest or event. At the very least, I'd say it'd be a good in character move to hire one to input the code at the end, since there's no way Tenpenny would willingly sacrifice himself.
I still can't get over the fact that Argonians and Khajits can be werewolves lol
I love how Skyrim is a old game but there’s still content creators making videos on it, Skyrim is hands down one of my most favorite games ever awesome to see it still being uploaded
“I awaken in my fursona” as a furry I was dying of laughter at this part 💀
Fable background music in a Skyrim video awesome well done i personaly love both franchise's.
"A sentient napalm strike just waiting for my signal to commit war crimes"
You, sir, are a poet.
Challenge ideas
Can you beat Fallout 4 as Rip Daring (protagonist of the astoundingly awesome tales) you can only use a double barrel shotgun, raggy clothes and have to collect every astoundingly awesome comic
Can you beat fallout 4 as the Crusader/Inquisitor of Atom
Rules: only wear Children of Atom Attire (yes their recon armor counts) you can only use CoA weapons or weapons that have inherent radiation damage
FatMan, Gamma Gun, Radium Rifle, Atoms Jugdment, nuka grenades, nuka mines
And you have to get the Crusader/Inquisitor of Atom perk from Far Harbor
I had a heart attack when you slaughtered all the Companions you monster!
*''Its special enchantment it that is racist.''*
This whole video is a 10/10 just for that joke.
Damn. Last week's joke run was so traumatic it turned Nerbit into a furry. Please send your thoughts and prayers to help this man, and maybe one day we can learn, Can You Beat Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance With Your Bare Hands?
Love to see the Marcurio love- he’s always my go to follower when I play
Werewolf: Definition: An dangerous furry
The record scratch glitch has to be my favorite in the whole game.
Wooo puppy!
Big Doggo
8:42
Best axe and just gonna say that the elves deserved it and continue to deserve it to this day. Just ask Pelinal Whitestrake.
Dual flurry will increase you werewolf swings also alteration is great because of mage robes, dual cast ebony flesh for a longer lasting spell as dragonskin doesn't work with dual casting perks
Not me just realising you could do this… safe to say I really have an unbreakable “mace go bonk” mindset
WHAT?! I've been playing this game or years! And i didn't know you can bite their heads off! OMG! That's bad ass!!!!
Hearing the fable soundtrack brought me such a nostalgia trip. God I miss that game
"When around elves, watch yourselves.
Don't trust them knife ears. That is why I got this ax"-Ysgramor, probably.
"eh, khajitt are basically just furry elves"- Pelinal Whitestrake, definitely.
Adding “Nerbit’s Whistle of Death” to my list of favorite playthrough moments. It’s going between “Revenge does wonders for the Will to live” and below “Execute Order 66”
being able to wear only one ring in Skyrim still makes me unconsolably angry to this day
I didn't realize my regular play style was going to be a challengeg run
21:41 hearing Snake say "TASTY" (right after eating a reticle python, I think? Or maybe it was the high calorie bar?) Really brought back memories 😅❤
One of my favorite playthroughs was "project: metalbeast". A werewolf playthrough, but I also level up alteration so I can armor up before I transform, plus the added magic resistance from the alteration tree.
Also IIRC you can drink potions/eat food as long as you assign them to your quick bar or whatever it's called. I guzzled vegetable soup for infinite stamina.
