The Elder Scrolls Megathread XVI: Loremaster Extraordinaire - Games

Or.. you know, just... "Game"

[QUOTE=lavacano;47326295]so the encounters mod i installed is goofed and doesn't remember how faction assignment works while it's hilarious to watch the three revelers beat each other senseless on the side of the road, watching three Thalmor, two Vigilants, and a Flame Atronach who were all clearly meant to fight each other walk by in a giant pack has its immersion breaking downsides[/QUOTE] [t]http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/707402399204661584/F462B1CD11B52600777C4C7A7C6A096D532DC2AC/[/t] sup bros

Christ that lighting is disgusting.

New character on Skyrim, a high elf alchemist named Ahlfreed: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/wuPUlOI.jpg[/IMG] I installed Requiem just to make sure i wouldn't get cocky and turn it into a stealth archer. Again. Next step: buying a bloody pair of gloves, and maybe a decent looking hat.

Pretty sure those brows already serve as a hat m8

I must have been doing something wrong, because in Requiem stealth archery seemed even more effective to me.

[QUOTE=MegaJohnny;47329286]I must have been doing something wrong, because in Requiem stealth archery seemed even more effective to me.[/QUOTE] Yes, but unless you put basic perks archery is shit, like everything else in Requiem. I'm surprised for the lack of a breathing perk where you drown with air if you don't have it.

I've been pretty dedicated to keeping my 1h/shield character from going stealth archer. My stealth sucks and my archery is even worse, so it'd be more frustrating to switch at this point. Combat's actually pretty fun this way too.

[QUOTE=Lomme;47329322]Yes, but unless you put basic perks archery is shit, like everything else in Requiem. I'm surprised for the lack of a breathing perk where you drown with air if you don't have it.[/QUOTE] That's true, but even with no perks you know how to use a bow, and that let me cheese a lot of low-level enemies because of the low time to kill. I'll petition the developer to make it so you might shoot yourself without the proper perk.

A charm spell on a character that turns everyone in the area into a permanent thrall due to the skill being too high wouldn't be bad.

[QUOTE=Snood_1990;47329666]Please post more of this character if anything interesting happens.[/QUOTE] Not much for now, but here's something: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/yfTDHyl.jpg[/IMG] Whiterun isn't really a charming place, but could be a decent place for gathering plants. However, the locals aren't too happy about it. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/sudiFEL.jpg[/IMG] The local alchemist seems obsessed with ataxia. Probably a fetish of some sort. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ewNAWLS.jpg[/IMG] Apart from the local oddities, Ahlfreed's ingredient hunt turned out to be pretty good.

[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;47327477]Christ that lighting is disgusting.[/QUOTE] Welcome to vanilla skyrim. Actually I had a mod that reduces the bloom so it's not even as bad as that.

What's a good mod to use with T.A.Z Lighting besides EFLX?

Welp, I broke my Oblivion and I can't fix it cleanly. Looks like I'll have to reinstall. Next time I can free myself from OBMM for Mod Organizer [editline]15th March 2015[/editline] Is there a save cleaning program for Oblivion?

I'm doing the quest "The Whispering Door" and to get the Ebony Blade upgraded I just spawned a beggar from Riften and killed her a bunch of times and resurrected her. I checked the upgrade thingy for the blade in console and it says I killed 10 friends, which is when the Whispering Lady should tell me my next task. However, she isn't and putting "setstage da08 60" (that is the stage for getting all 10 kills) doesn't do anything either. I don't wanna have to restart my character because I've levelled him up quite a bit.

[QUOTE=IceWarrior98;47331249]Have you tried NOT cheating?[/QUOTE] Like I said, I didn't want to kill any important NPC, like traders and such. Guess I'll have to restart my character.

[quote] I installed Requiem just to make sure i wouldn't get cocky and turn it into a stealth archer. Again.[/quote] Pretty much the only class worth a shit in requiem, it's unbalanced as fuck.

[QUOTE=27X;47331269]Pretty much the only class worth a shit in requiem, it's unbalanced as fuck.[/QUOTE] Funny how that's the same for vanilla skyrim too.

Quite. It's kinda headscratching how they spent all this time working on this "total and complete overhaul of how the game is played, everything is so different." Except it's not, and once you break armor (aka Ap arrows) it's actually a joke to finish, and easier than vanilla skyrim. Baffling.
