With all the recent talk of video games on NSG there has been one big one left out. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This game is looks wayyyy to fun. Really looking forward to slayin' some dragons!

... not to mention the ultimate hyphy game!

Personally i use the nightinggale perks to defeat the dragons followed with berserkers rage. 100 two handed 100 heavy armor full deadric... the game got boring... anyone else here about the DLC?

using things like enchanted apparel with fortify smithing along with blacksmith / fortify smithing potions allows you to get your damage to crazy high levels. if you're good with alchemy, just make a bunch of fortify smithing potions (blisterwort, glowing mushrooms, spriggon sap, or sabre cat tooth. use any 2 or 3 of them to make the potion). hope it helps

this. also, stack them. if you have more than 1 potion/elixir/draught/whatever, use them all at once to stack up the effects (in other words, if they're +10% better for 30 seconds, and you have 5, using all 5 will make it +50% better for 30 seconds.)

What's the point of leveling magic skills? Since all the spells have set damage... or am I missing something obvious?

But iron daggers are faster.  And there's also a way to get sneak up to 100 in like 15 minutes in case anyone's interested in that.  Search it on youtube.

Me too. 1 hit kills on dragons with my bare claws. The game is also phenomenally less fun with stats that high, so I put it on master level and use low-level weapons.

indeed. you get a pretty good mask for getting all 8 (if you didn't know, go to Labyrinthian and you'll find a dome thing with a ruined room inside. read the note by the skeleton and grab the wooden mask. when you put it on you go back in time and you can set the dragon priest masks on busts. putting all 8 in their place gives you a final mask. after this you can take the masks back as you please.) the most useful mask is volsung, by the way. (underwater breathing, carry 20 more points of weight, prices are 20% better)

yeah but the problem with volsung is its a light armor mask, whereas i have a heavy armor character

and to the other guy, not all word walls have dragon priests. there are only 8 priests and most of them are at the end of mines or ruins

that is a problem, but it's also a plus. i only wear it when i'm going underwater, so it pretty much just sits in my inventory (a plus, since light armor doesn't weigh a lot)
