    I thought I left this pin already, but in case you missed it (or are just new here), I decided to revisit this run with level one stats while setting my level to a very casual 255. Goblins had tens of thousands of HP while my highest damaging weapon did about four points of damage, so I did what anyone would naturally do in this scenario; I formed a legion of mercenaries, misfits and goons to destroy everyone in my warpath. ua-cam.com/video/fIeoIrVvoCI/v-deo.htmlsi=WXqiRLUtJu1bITz2

    I remember when I first started playing Oblivion all I ever did was steal things, and because of the way the lock picking minigame works I was able to just open them at low level with a lot of patience... then I realised you could get a lockpick that doesn't break and cryed about all the wasted time

As one can guess, this somewhat breaks space-time when it’s activated. Meaning that it can have been activated 30 years ago, fought against people trying to stop its activation 40 years ago and ended a war 2 minutes that will begin 300 years from now and last 50 years.

  • @spaceangelmewtwo9074
    @spaceangelmewtwo9074 2 роки тому +6

    Short answer before even watching the video: Yes. You can level up your skills without levelling up your character, and the enemies only scale with your level, not with your skills. And so, not only is it possible to beat Oblivion at max difficulty at level 1, it's actually easier than beating it normally on max difficulty because you can raise all your skills to 100 and have the power of a max level character while the enemies are all only intended to be beaten by a level 1 character.
    Now try this on Morrowind. I guarantee you will have a much harder time. Sure, you can also level up your skills without levelling up your character, but that doesn't actually make the game easier in Morrowind because there is no level scaling in Morrowind. Therefore, all you accomplish by remaining level 1 is that you've kneecapped your stats.

    I cant tell if this is the worst or best one to do this kind of thing in. Oblivions scaling has always been my biggest gripe with the game. If you don't level, it essentially locks you out of seeing certain things. Not because you need to meet a requirement or something is just much too difficult at your level but because some items and events literally won't appear until you are scaled to them

    I got tired of that and tried another methoid. I thought, "If I don't use any of my major skills then I could get my minor skills to max and use max level spells on low level enemies." I combined high elf and apprintace to get max starting magica...Well you can get 50 more by going atronotch I guess but I can't grind my abilities with no magica regen.

    Suggestion: get the goblin staff in the tutorial, then some soul gems, afterwards, head to the ayleid ruin with umbra inside, hit them, *R U N* , then lead them to a large rock just outside the entrance, due to the stupid ai, they'll be stuck trying to hit you at the bottom instead of jumping up, and you can really slowly wittle away their health ( bows at level 1 are too weak to do enough damage to counter the regeneration, and melee doesn't have enough range to hit them ) once you do that, enjoy ebony armour and one of the best swords in the game at lvl 1

    I know without finishing the vid that yes you can. I also know because I have done it that completing oblivion without levelling is actually easier than if you did level. Sure you can’t get your hands on high level loot such as the mundane ring which would have been great and made a Breton the best class but the more you increase skills, the easier it is to play. You start out and it’s insanely difficult but it soon becomes a cakewalk.

    Also on Clannfear vs Frost Atronach vs Daedroth.
    Clannfear is the most powerful out of a bunch, but the most fragile, though. If ge can approach the target, he can kill anyone but Storm Atronach, tho.
    Frosty is middle of a road. Not good at anything, but not bsd either.
    And Daedroth has fairly meh damage, but it's tanky and bulky.

    I was always wondering about this, since I first started this game in 2006. At no point during that time, having the game on the 360, did I ever feel like max difficulty was "possible". Even through normal leveling. The tutorial dungeon was functionally impossible, any dungeon at any level felt impossible, you just died.
    Lately I started a playthrough where i console'd myself to level 30 at the beginning, so leveled stuff would be maxxed. Along with a mod to let me equip any number of non-duplicate vanilla-generated rings. I think I should restart that but with max difficulty. It'll make those dungeons really tricky, but REALLY worth it.

    When you take the stone in the oblivion realm and jump down to the floor the gate actually closes immidiatly before you hit the ground and maybe die. That saves a few seconds if you dont wanna wait.

    I enjoy these type of "Can you beat oblivion X" type videos but i see a lot of people saying its actually easier at level 1, which is true, but if you want a real challenge at level one, there are a few static leveled enemies, umbra of course but also the lich of lost boy cavern, id say give him a shot

    Destruction debuff stacking is my favorite way to do high level runs, set up a few weakness to something like magic and a then after magic a element of your choice fire, frost, lighting and you’ll do like 50* the damage lmao it’s hilarious.

    Before watching the video: if you never mention that poison damage ignores difficulty modifiers and is thus extremely broken for high difficulty, I will be sorely disappointed.
