I wonder which lore goon was behind [i]that[/i].

[QUOTE=whatthe;42234084]Answer me a question, what is [sp]The Wheel?[/sp][/QUOTE] CHIM i think

[QUOTE=Altimor;42233767]Change difficulty then[/QUOTE] Im on the hardest difficulty, I just have a Breton character with the atronach stone and magicka enchantments on my robes, so I am like level 4 with 250 magicka but 60 health and 50 stamina. So it balances out,if I dont use combinations correctly they will still fuck me up, but I have this ridiculous pool of magicka that lets me use spells I probably shouldnt be able to use yet. It is just I have been playing this game for a while now and the combat isn't anything difficult so I know exverything to expect and I feel like that is currently what is making my character over powered. Before when I first got the game. "OH FUCK OH FUCK WWHAT THE SHIT IS THAT WHAT DO I DO!!" Now it is more like: "Suck my dick hagraven, I am just going to run in a circles around you smacking you all over the place and your one shitty attack animation wont be fast enough to hit me."

Actually, [sp]with the whole citadel in the middle, it actually looks more like a tower, when not looked at from a bird perspective...[/sp]

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;42234411]Isn't the white gold [I]tower[/I] viewable across it too?[/QUOTE] Yes, the tower is visible from every point in the Imperial City, except indoors.

Digging through some of my screenshots.. oh jeez [t]http://i.cubeupload.com/bwwWqk.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=Sgt-NiallR;42233545] -voojoo- That's how you do the quest.[/QUOTE] It's probably getting old with these dumb questions, but do these special kills usually come from power attacks or are they random?

Does anybody know ways to reduce Creation Kit crashing so often. I have put off making mods for Skyrim since release because I couldn't even open the damned thing no matter what I tried. I just finished a 10 step tutorial and it has crashed 3 times so far. I always remember to save but it still takes the piss.

Since we are talking CK stuff I've always wanted to make the Gauntlets Of Running Urgently that fortified hand to hand and speed, but either poisoned the player or reduced max health when wearing.

[QUOTE=Stonecycle;42235587]It's probably getting old with these dumb questions, but do these special kills usually come from power attacks or are they random?[/QUOTE] I believe that they trigger when you hit an enemy for more damage than they have remaining health. Grelod only has 1 hp, so that's why I got one there. I think I have a mod that bumps the percentage chance up to ~100%, but I don't know about that for sure.

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;42235813]Some are forced, for example, you will always do a killmove on [sp]the emperor.[/sp][/QUOTE] Little off topic but why did you put a spoiler on that lol? It would be like going into a harry potter appreciation thread right now and putting a spoiler over any mentioning of [sp] dumbledore dying ::::ooooooooo [/sp]

And then the killmove always cancels and he just randomly slumps down dead I like how in the [I]climax[/I] of the entire questline it just invariably ends in such a comically buggy and anti-climactic manner

[QUOTE=Altimor;42229234]its not hard if i walk and keep stamina but i dont want to fucking walk i want to bunnyhop[/QUOTE] Or maybe because your character isn't trained in any form of combat except for Destruction?

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;42236036]How does this harm you?[/QUOTE] It doesn't, I just found it funny, no need to be so uptight! c:

Also is there any HD head replacer for Morrowind that isn't horrifying?

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;42235586]Digging through some of my screenshots.. oh jeez [t]http://i.cubeupload.com/bwwWqk.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Do you still have a safe file of that that I can use?

Maybe, I could search for it later today

[QUOTE=coyote93;42236938] EDIT. Ehh, how can i make it so that this info dont take the whole page?[/QUOTE] Use pastebin.

I think I have a mod that bumps the percentage chance up to ~100%, but I don't know about that for sure.[/QUOTE] For some reason it's horribly bugged with magic and you get like 3 projectile cams before an actual kill.

[QUOTE=cdr248;42236473]Also is there any HD head replacer for Morrowind that isn't horrifying?[/QUOTE] Nope. Can't believe there isn't a single mod that changes the DB armor to something decent in Skyrim. The vanilla Halloween catsuit is stupid.

Are there any mods that make Morrowind combat less left clicky?

[QUOTE=Altimor;42237189]Are there any mods that make Morrowind combat less left clicky?[/QUOTE] Probably, but like many people if it so fails to hold your attention it's an issue with the broader aims and goals of the game that some people just can't get down with. I have a feeling that less clicky combat isn't going to suddenly bust open immersive doors to your RPG experience. It's pretty obvious you're playing it like a slomo HL1 speedrun. I don't mean this pejoratively at all btw -- to each his own. [editline]18th September 2013[/editline] idk maybe the glitchiness is like a wonderland for you

[QUOTE=Altimor;42237189]Are there any mods that make Morrowind combat less left clicky?[/QUOTE] But an Elder Scrolls game isn't an Elder Scrolls game without spam click combat!

[QUOTE=cdr248;42237410]But an Elder Scrolls game isn't an Elder Scrolls game without spam click combat![/QUOTE] Dude in Skyrim they added a whole other mouse button.
