| enemies scale,so if you go there at low levels the likely wont have those weapons. plus youd have a real hard time killing em anyways.
if your a heavy armor stealth character than get the heavy armor perk to make it not weigh anything |

if your a heavy armor stealth character than get the heavy armor perk to make it not weigh anything They will always have those weapons , even at lower levels = confirmed. Though I wouldn't bother until u have decent armor . @Wadey , that heavy armor perk is very useful , especially if you're running a full set of Daedric armor like I am |

- you miss understood my post. it doesnt matter how many dungeons youve cleared, so no need for getting defensive like that
Its all good ! I wasnt being defensive ........just talking about what I enjoy doing in this game tbh. One of the things I really like is wandering around discovering things and places not really doing much at all sometimes. Some people rush through the main quests, others play with different characters its really amazing the variety and replay value. I did finish the Sanguine quest Mitch mentioned earlier and got my first few staffs. I checked and I'm a level 17 with 11 dungeons cleared. BTW +1 for you for all the advice and help you have been giving everybody Thanks !

| http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1332899-am-i-the-first-to-discover-this-synergy-with-necromage-perk-and-vampirism/Someone posted this on reddit. The short of it is that being a vampire not only gives you all the different stat effects and such, but it also actually flags your character as an Undead. This is important because of the Necromage perk in Restoration that makes all your spells affect Undead more strongly. Including any enchantments on your armor/jewelry, any of your spells that target you (including all Conjuration), and some Shouts. - Quote :
- My mystery began when I picked the Necromage perk so I could do more damage vs. draugr and thrall level 50 pets instead of 40. Then I noticed my Become Etherial shout was lasting a long time and the recast was shorter. Then I noticed that when I put on a necklace that grants 15 bonus to carrying capacity, it actually added 19.
It finally dawned on me today:
If you become a Vampire, Bethesda has made it so that YOU ARE FLAGGED AS UNDEAD. That means the Necromage perk that makes all spells have greater effect on undead WORKS ON YOU TOO!! That also works on enchantments on your clothes and conjuration summons (since they're actually a spell cast on yourself...my dual casted Dremora lord shows as duration 6 minutes)
My Archmage robes now have the following stats: 125% magicka regen, 18% reduction in casting costs, 62 bonus magicka
My Nahkriin Mask (the last one) shows as 25% reduction to restoration and destruction costs (instead of 20%) and gives 62 bonus magicka (vice 50)
My Talos necklace and talos buff from shrine still show the same display stats, but Become Etherial usually has recast 20 seconds. With two talos buffs it's 12 second recast. With Necromage and two talos buffs, it's 10 second recast. AND, the actual shout lasts longer. Become Etherial lasts longer than the recast. It used to last 8 seconds and now it lasts longer than 10. I can literally run through the game invincible and it uses no exploit...just making myself undead and picking a perk that affects undead.
My 60% magicka regen ring is now a 75% magicka regen ring.
My Fire Resist boots that provided 40% resist now provides 50%
There is now a DAMN good reason to be a vampire mage in addition to the illusion bonus. |

| I found Sam in The Bannered Mare in Whiterun Mitch. He is a plain looking guy in robes, no hood, dark hair, who sounds a little drunk. The quest is a little long but the booty is pretty decent. Make sure you check all chests in the last Dungeon or you could miss out on some good stuff. |

| I love Daedric quests. They're so fun.
Also, I finally went and saw the greybeards. At level 50. Now, I'm addicted to going to them and getting info on where to go to learn more words of power and don't think I'm going to stop until I find ALL of them.
Like 95 hours of playtime or so, I believe. Pushing 100.
9.5 MB save file, getting frame rate issues every once in a while when lots of stuff happens. =\ |

| i made a new character. a pure wizard. and he killed his 1st giant at level 5.
it was pretty funny though. i had a random hire, and he kept trying to attack the giant and would get hit and go fying, but since your followers cant die unless you hit them id see him runningback to me to fight the giant and get sentup to the heavens again. that happened over 10 times |

It surprised me because when I got hit by one before it only sent me flying back into some rocks. |

| I think I am going to have to start a new character, got to the thieves guild mission where you have to take the armor they give you forever ago. I didn't keep it so I can't finish the thieves quest line. Kinda annoyed, no one I can steal it from or kill and take it from in the thieves guild is there? |

| Yeah I just found it on the skyrim wiki page, it basically said im screwed for that quest line. Here is the quote from the page.
"For the above reasons do not under any circumstances sell your Thieves Guild Armor back to Tonilia or any other merchant as there will be no way at all to retrieve it. So far there seems to be no possibility of this issue being fixed on console" |
