Skyrim Builds

[Rand{CLR}]

Lvl 52. Rand has obviously finished enchanting/smithing/alchemy. Maybe completed 1hand/block/light or heavy armor and restoration. With a few points in sneak/speech and lockpick.

I've got 100 in one-handed, enchanting, and smithing. I didn't put any extra effort into alchemy so it's just progressing at normal. Light and heavy armor are pretty high (I found the dragon priest mask that grants water breathing very early and have worn it since, so that's a lot of light armor points; heavy armor is almost 100). Lockpick is nearly 100 right now. Nothing went into speech but sales probably drove it up fairly high.

Archery, sneak, restoration, and destruction are fairly high from sheer use. I probably either need to start putting perks in destruction or just give up and dual-wield or shield--I do very little damage to the foes of my level with spells.

I finally finished that quest for the Galdur amulet about a week ago. I had the piece that increased health, and found out that one of the other pieces was in a location with a mage guild quest, so I didn't finish the quest until I got that far in the guild.

are you still using a companion? I just gave up on them. They kept dying or getting in the way of my fireballs.

go console commands type

help (name) 4

this will give you the characters id number.

go back to console and type

setessential id# 1

1 is for immortal aka gets to minimal hp then falls like kids or other necessary characters do. Then they will stand back up. Works great!

see the character was doing that for a while, then just died on me for some reason.

I rather not do to many changes like that to the game though. I thought I was using an immortal character with the lady who helps you with your first house.. forget the postion name.

Lydia and i dont think she is immortal, I have gone the whole game with her like that no problems

You guys do realize you have to disband your companion every few levels because the game is sort of broken, even after patches. Then have them follow you again for their stats to reset to their respective numbers. It's a small bug in the game and I found it helps.

Also Rand, get that alchemy up and make pots for smithing and enchanting perks. If you give up on magic and duel wield etc, you will STILL do very little damage in combat unless you sneak up to EVERYTHING for 15x crit damage(you CAN get 3-4 crits in a row with this but gets boring, not enough action). Enchanting/smithing for improving your weapons on master difficulty is essential in staying strong offensively and defensively. If ya don't, well you know what they say in Pirates of the Caribbean, "Dead man walking!"

had her die 3 times on me and well gave up on her. She really was more of a pack mule then anything else.
