I'm a bit confused. So i'm level 5. I decided to walk to the elders at the top of the ice mountain to get my shout training but I couldn't kill a single frost troll on my own! I was just following the door on my minimap like a derp (not taking side quests)..walking for 15 min straight. Am I playing this severely underleveled and playing this game wrong? Lol. First time playing a game like this

The game difficulty scales with level...although you likely can't put a dent in some of the tougher mobs early on in the game.

Hondaracer 11-24-2011 08:39 PM

it feels like my weapons are so underpowered as well

currently i'm like lvl 17 and i dual wield 2 maces with about 30 dmg each plus magic damage

some of the NPC's that come with me seem to beat down stuff way harder than i can

Ronin 11-24-2011 08:43 PM

Lydia fucks shit up for me but she always gets in the way. She just seems to walk in front of all my arrows and then fly across the room dead so I have to reload, dammit.

If you are having problems with monsters, get a companion. You can get one early by:

Spoiler!


Companions make the game a lot easier in the first 10-20 levels, I recommend keeping one with you at all time, until you level up a bit.

I imagine she's a bitch to have as a rogue type unless you make her wait all the time

It scales to some degree, but a lot of the monsters and low-level humans don't scale. Trolls, Spiders, regular Bandits/Forsworn/Draugr, etc. all stay relatively the same. When I was in single-digits, a few Frostbite Spiders would overwhelm me even with a companion, but they've been 1-hit kills for many levels for me.

I enchanted another set of Glass Armor focusing primarily Destruction cost reduction ... 80% cheaper destruction = 24 magicka for 90 damage Incinerate, I have 360 magicka (7 dual-casted Incinerates, Icy Spears, or Thunderbolts), and my armor rating is 260 :)

This morning, I walked through a dungeon by myself (companion got stuck in a grate in the first room of the dungeon) on Expert and leveled everything. Took out a Draugr Deathlord in 2 hits :)

I really like Eola as a companion; she stays in the back casting Conjuration and Destruction spells, resorts to a bow when she runs out of magicka.

She's who I have with me right now, she may be older but she's got pretty big tits in that armour :D

Where can you get lots of petty soul gems? Got tons of iron daggers to enchant.

Dungeons would be the obvious answer, but if you're looking to buy, pretty much all the court wizards sell them and, of course, the College of Winterhold. You can occasionally find them at general merchants as well.

Just started this game a few days ago and OMG you can just get sucked into this game and lose track of all time when playing. Never played previous TES games or this style of game to begin with so this is my first taste of a game that is so open to do anything.
I've spent most of my time just wondering around and discovering new places, haven even started doing the main quest yet. So much to see and so much to do!

Sometimes I think I'm playing the game all wrong by just doing whatever, but so far, I'm really enjoying it.

It doesn't matter

Retrac 11-25-2011 02:49 PM

Depends on your simthing skill. If you enchanted and can't enhance a magical item your gonna hafta wait awhile till you get the perk.

JayEch 11-25-2011 03:45 PM

ohh it doesnt? my smithing is going to be 100 soon, but my enchanting is only like 30. Should i just enhance then wait till my enchanting is 100 and enchant then?

careful with daedric armor, after I got it, it kinda ruined the game for me. It basically gave me godmode and I didnt even bother shielding anymore.

Spoiler!

Ronin 11-25-2011 07:45 PM

Went from 20-90 smithing just crafting the shit out of iron daggers and improving them. Gonna stuff them all in a chest and enchant them later to sell.

THEN I'LL BE OPRAH RICH.

woob 11-25-2011 08:20 PM

...or you can just play through the Thieves Guild quests and get rich without grinding -- by selling loot to fences. Each fence has 4k gold to spend on you after doing certain quests.

Ibleedswag 11-25-2011 08:40 PM

Loved Oblivion so im sure I will love skyrim also :)

fs604 11-25-2011 08:45 PM

honestly what do you guys even need money for. i dony think i ever needed to buy something so my money just stacks up.

SkinnyPupp 11-25-2011 08:48 PM

Training

You are already spending $20K per level on training, if you are at Master level. Money shouldn't be accumulating

fs604 11-25-2011 08:51 PM

oh lol training :fuckthatshit: never wasted money on that so i guess it would drain your money pretty hard

RacePace 11-25-2011 09:35 PM

The god damn house in Solitude, shit cost 25k

Ronin 11-25-2011 09:51 PM

...training?
