    To train magic skills, you don't need to clutter your spell list with multiple training spells. Experience is awarded per action, not by magnitude or magicka cost. Creating one spell for each skill, set at minimum cost gives just as much progress as any other spell. Touch spells are the best as they have the shortest animation. As long as the spell activates on a target, you'll gain xp. Destruction, weakness on touch spell, no damage, no kill. Restoration, anything on touch really, find an npc and go to town, or leave town with an on-self spell if you wanna stretch your legs. Alteration, mysticism, and illusion are basically the same as restoration, use what you got. Conjuration, summon a skelly then have a turn undead ready or just keep re-summoning.
    Alchemy, go buy/collect as much of any two matching effect ingredients as you can and make as many potions as you can. Farms and inns have a bunch of restore fatigue and health ingredients. At most, you'd need to make just over 2k potions if you're alchemy starts at level 5.
    Armorer, best way is to make a spell to fortify it to be at or above 100, your hammers won't break. Some doomstones give the effect, the Thieves Den npcs sell it and being a vampire could also provide it. Any fortify _skill_ effect will provide the spellmaking effect for all other skills. You can also have a spell to disintegrate your own equipment. Or in the Shivering Isles, get the Amulet of Disintegration, which has a self disintegrate armor and weapon passive effect of 10k.
    Sneaking into a wall while undetected by nearby NPCs, allows you to afk. Or you can pickpocket, opening and closing a pickpocket screen gives 2 xp, while sneaking gives 0.75 per second. If you've finished the Arena, you can use the Adoring Fan or let a Highwayman rob you and just spam pickpocket on them, you don't even need to steal anything and they'll never get mad.
    Light/heavy armor and block, travel to a bandit camp or cave. Try to gather bandit bowman up, run into melee with them till they pull out a dagger. Daggers have the highest attack speed, thus highest hits per second. The more dagger wielding bandits the better.
    Blade and blunt, hit stuff, with daggers or one-handed blunt weapons(preferably). If you have the Vile Lair, you can use the sleeping prisoner for infinite nonstop training, because they never go unconscious. Also a good target for spell training.
    Athletics, run(0.03 xp per second) into a wall, or swim(0.04) into a wall. The difference seems small, but at most, swimming could save you nearly 24 hours of training.
    Acrobatics, find something to stand under that blocks your jump height. That way you hit the ground faster and jump more often. Taking damage from a jump gives 10x more xp than a normal jump, but the time to reset and the distance required as your skill increases makes this inefficient.
    Mercantile, sell single items at a time.
    Speechcraft, play that little minigame, fail on purpose.
    Above all, remember to rest and level as soon as you get 10 major skill-ups. After a level-up is available you stop earning progress to attribute gains when you actually level up. So if you've got 2+ levels stored, any after the first will have attribute gain bonuses locked at a +1 until you clear all available level-ups. Which could potentially harm your character's growth in the long run. Also, don't be afraid to pay skill trainers to level your skills, especially at the higher levels.

      Old comment, but i thought id add that for combat skills, the frozen people at Peryite's shrine never get knocked out until you finish the quest, so you can freely practice on them.
      For block, go to the house where the rats are in the first Fighters Guild quest, in Anvil. Punch each rat once them just stand in a corner blocking. For armor, same but dont block.

However, if you're talking about going through hundreds of thousands of actions just to unnaturally level a spell school, it really does make me wonder if it is not a waste of time when it can be done quickly and one can continue actually playing the game. I'm at the age now where time is pretty valuable. I guess whatever makes players happy is the right solution for them.

Bethesda literally took a step backwards with Skyrims magic, cities, movement all just feel so dull compared to Oblivion. After 120 hours I started modding it for graphics and god dang it looks good. The power of mods is insane.

  • @Pandaddy90
    @Pandaddy90 3 роки тому +88

    I noticed this wasn't mentioned, so I figure I would.
    So for people that want to play without exploiting too much, pick Primary skills opposite of what you wish to be, and the skill you use most as secondary (Pure Mages pick Blade, Blunt, Repair for example). Since Primary skills level faster, it will raise your character level up faster. Without your actual skills being raise before that happens, you will have relatively low stat points per level.
    This method allows to control how often you level up, allowing you to min max your stat points. So being Character Level 1 with all mage skills at 100, means that your next character level up, will yield the most in Magicka, Intelligence, and Willpower, etc.
    Tldr, if you don't do it this way, you could be Lvl 50 and get wrecked by a Level 20 scamp. If you do it this way, you can play on max difficulty without raging.

    Drain Fatigue/Stamina, when a NPC stamina reach 0, he just falls face first into the ground, just like a paralysis, but unlike Paralysis, no enemy/or rarely any as resistance to Stamina/Fatigue drain.
    Also they can go into Negative Stamina value, and untill they reach a positive stamina value, they STAY ON THE GROUND.
    They recuperate 10 stamina per sec, but if you hit them with Drain Stamina 30pts per sec for X secs, they never get up.
    The stamina bar goes fromm -100 to 100, wich mean that when they reach -100 stamina, it will take them 10 secs AT LEAST to get back up.
    And Drain Stamina is cheaper to make as a spell/enchant and to cast.

It has to be bound armor since bound armor doesn't gain value from enchantment, and it's 0 weight, meaning it can be reverse pickpocketed.

    2. Go on horseback to "Vidasel" where NPC Umbra is waiting for you. Leave the horse near the entrance. Come in, attack the NPC and direct it back to the horse.
    3. Umbra will follow you until Imperial City. Go inside the city and let the guards do the rest.

    Fun tip: if you turn off “Save on Rest” and save before you sleep to level up, you can sleep, and while the time is ticking down you can load any save you want, and that save will level up instead of the one you slept in. You can do this to level up to almost level 200 (until your stats all get to 100). After this, if you do the Shivering Isles quests for the head Mania guy and get Felldew withdrawal, you can level your skills to 100 again, and when you cure your withdrawal, you’ll be level 200-225ish with some stats that are 110-115

    Tip: When you first wake up in the cell. (Don't move until you do a save. So you have a place to go back to if you want to do this.)
    There's a table by the left wall. If you duck (sneak) (CTRL on pc) and aim for the join between the table and the wall pillar so your looking towards the back of the cell. You don't trigger the person in the cell across the hall. No trigger no Emperor Uriel Septim VII. Until your ready for him, then walk towards the door. I don't know what if anything it will do. Currently I just like the no rush feel. And getting sneak up until I either get to 100 Start it up and go read a book, Keep an eye out for the level upgrades. or run out of patience. And go play it anyway.
    -
    Put auto walk on (Q the pc) and just walk into that wall , you get 1 level of sneak per two minutes approx. I started with level 5..
    -
    If you use heal until you run out of magic. Then stop walking and hit the spacebar (jump on pc) until you run out of green Acrobatics. You level all three up. Takes longer than just doing sneak.
    When you want to continue just walk towards the door. I don't know what if anything it will do. Currently.

      Yes and you can backstab the enemies getting the sneak attack damage multiplier all day long without them even noticing you, you can also make yourself 100% resistant both to physical damage and magic or even have 100% physical damage resistance and 100% spell absorbtion so enemy's spells recharge your magika instead of damaging you using combos of enchanted items you find and items you enchant yourself (ring of the iron fist and amulet of axes or blades give both 33% reflect damage, add Escutcheon of Chorrol gathered at lev 25 for an other 35% and you have 101% reflect damage). If you go for the 100% spell absorbtion, Sorcerer's ring 25% + 5 items enchanted by sigil stoones 15% each) you can do even more crazy things like making custom spells that auto recharge magika ( by putting some telekinesis in them ) while you cast them, so let's say a spell with x fire damage + 100% weaknes to fire 3s + 100% weaknes to magika 3s + the right amount of telekinesis to recharge its cost, it will do 4x fire damage due to the weakneses (from the second time you cast it vs someone) and you can cast it all day long without interruption as it recharges your magika as it consumes it. But are those the best ways to play the game? 100% chamaleon so no enemy sees you, reacts and try to harm you or 100% physical and magic resistance so even if they see you can not harm you can be fun for a very short time, then the game quickly becomes boring as there is 0 challenge.
      The only use I see for a 100% chamaleon suit of armor I see is to kill fast and without risk your own summons to recharge the Azura's Star by soul trap so you can have your custom enchanted weapon always at full charge easilly and for free and even that is far too OP in my opinion.

    Best Sword you can make is in fact something that has the highest attack speed like a dagger and enchantments of all 3 elements like 5 damage of fire cold and shock for 1 second and 100% weakness to all 3 elements for 3 seconds. Best thing is, elemental weakness stack on top of each other so after 10 hits with a quick dagger the weakness will become 1000% to all elements, meaning your 5 damage to all 3 elements is suddenly doing 50 to all 3 elements, you can easily kill anything in a few strikes even Dagon him self, just walk up to him and spam your dagger until he turns into a liquid! You can also add 100% Weakness to Magic on top of the elemental weaknesses to further compound elemental damage.

    This video has good tips but HUGE MISINFO on the magic levelling. It is better to use spells that are as weak as possible to spam, as all spells give equal exp regardless of how strong they are. Make a spell that only costs 1 magicka. For example, Water-Breathing for 1 second on self. You can cast this over and over forever and quickly level Alteration. For Destruction, make a Weakness to Element for 1 second on self as this means you don't need to cast the spell on an enemy.

    I think the drain health effect only lowers the targets max health by the stated amount, and that the effect lasts for the duration. Most enemies on lower difficulties don`t have more than 100 hp, therefore they get oneshot.

    And even better tip for anyone that's playing a real solid Warrior what you do is is just before Uriel starts talking and the other two guards leave the room run out and wait the Mythic Dawn will continuously spawn unlimited amount of spawns so depending on what you want to do you can set all your blocking blunt hand-to-hand pretty much any of your physical skills to as high as you want you can even do it with a magic User it's a little more tricky though

    Actually bro I would say choose a Breton to get the magicka boost and choose warrior or the lady for boosted endurance and or strength/willpower. And then choose the major skills to be the ones you use the least...that way they'll be the easiest to level up and will actually make you want to use those skills where you normally wouldn't. I only say do it this way because if you level up your major skills and they are what you use all the time...by that time if you wanted to level up the shit you don't normally use it would be very slow and boring. I shoot to level every skill tho and not the just one specific build.

    To do the Scroll Duplication Glitch:
    Things needed:
    Around 12 scrolls is the max dupe at a time
    Another 12 scrolls of a different spell
    The item you want to dupe:
    Start with potions, most expensive potion is bought from The Gilded Carafe.
    Then upgrade to the stone that is bought at Slash and Smash.
    Finally upgrade to the veil of the seer bought from Edgar’s Discount Spells.
    Mercantile Skill is needed to upgrade so sell each item separately, one by one to level efficiently.
    Now to do this.
    Switch between your 2 scrolls but don’t click on one scroll twice then use whatever is the highlight key aka shift, so shift click to drop. So hold highlight and switch to the thing u wanna dupe and just drop it. Now it will work. Also warning, if the quantity of the item you are duping is more than the scrolls u have, it won’t work so drop them and repeat.

    Best bet is to pick as your PRIMARY skills, skills you won't actually be using as your default skill set. Yes, this means that your "actual" skills won't go up as fast, but that's ok because you'll be using them a lot, and have far more control over when you level. And try to make sure that your PRIMARY skills cover every attribute. Then you keep a running total how how many times your strength-base skills, (for example) have gone up and you can make certain that your chosen attributes go up by five point per level. Result; you can have stats and skills that way outclass your opponents at early to mid levels.

  • @dylanwalser3138

    Couple tips:
    -Do NOT download Wizards Tower right off the bat. Spell Crafting is the fastest way to ruin a play through. There’s a reason they made Spell Crafting accessible only after completing the mage guild quests.
    -Also I wouldn’t recommend using the duplication glitches until you’ve played a decent bit. It’s another way to make your play through not as fun and adds a slight chance that your game crashes when you do it.
    Other than that yeah solid guide 👍🏽

The Honorblade is a quest item too even at level 1 which means it weights nothing and at level 1 weight is a pain otherwise.

    A few things you got wrong: drain effects reduce x for y seconds, and spell cost has impact on how fast you level. at 100, you can intentionally have yourself become addicted to felledew during the SI Addiction quest for Thadon, and level back up, bypassing level caps. When you have all your attributes back at 100, you use the chalice of reversal to increase your attributes above 100 then use the oghma infnium to further strengthen your attributes.

    • @greenscheme2040
      @greenscheme2040 3 роки тому +2

      Yeah but you don't want to do that. You have 300 points in any one area to get it up to 100% and a lot are already used up to start with. If you max out Sneak you only have those left in Security and Marksman to max out Agility. You can sneak in crouch/autorun by the bed of anyone sleeping like a Guild buddy or a Fixer. In very early levels of Sneak take your boots off not to make noise. Do the Sneak a little at a time so you can get that Agility up later since you ONLY need 10 points of skill to max that attribute the full 5 points upon leveling. And cast spells while doing it so you can work your magic schools stats at the same time. Remember to keep your shield out to cast faster. Maxing any skill too early is suicide in this game. You just kill your ability in an attribute by doing it.
      Also Agility is less important early on than Endurance (Health points) and Intelligence (Magika points). If you don't max them at 5 every time you never reach max points for Health and Magika and you aren't as strong and die a lot. I also like to do Strength early so I can carry more and do more damage and mix in some Willpower a bit. Thieves Guild is my favorite but I really don't need Agility up early to do those quest well.

This applies to any school of magic and there is no need to make different spells for each level, just use a cost 1.

      True that though they have to get into the Arcane University first to make those spells. You can use something like Minor Heal until then to gain Restoration traction though. And any other minor spell that uses few points to cast like a weak Detect Animals etc until then.
