Got jumped by a dragon at only level 6....
Stupid thing landed beside me and smacked a mammoth on the way. Cue a giant running to rescue me! The dragon buggered off and the giant kinda pathed around when the sky went black and the dragon picked him up and flew waaaay high and dropped him !!

Giant lands (presumeably with two broken ankles) and continues pathing around aimlessly. Dragon lands and has another go at me but the Giant beat *unholy lard* out of him while I got the f out of d

Very cool game, but I'm going to take my sweet time over it and spend all next year playing it.

Noob question, not sure i fully understand the ranking of skills system.
I have some novice and adept skills right now, at the trainers they are offering to train me for a cost, is this simply buying what i can do from just using the same skills?
As in when i use conjuration skills for example i level conjuration up, am i simply doing what the trainers are offering for gold?
What way does it go, novice-adept- etc etc?

Yeah, you're paying them to level you up quicker.

The training system in this game is pretty simple as they offer to just train which ever skill you pick up a maximum of 5 ranks per level. You do not have to use these trainer at all in the leveling process. Once you gain any 10 skill points you gain 1 level & one perk point which can be spent on any skill you want, some perks cannot be unlocked until a higher skill rank is achieved in that skill.

This was not the case in the other elders scrolls as you normally choose a skillset to try master and which ever skills you gained points in it reflected on a multiplier towards a specific attribute.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

I'm having trouble selling legendary dragon plate I've mass produced and enchanted because the vendors don't have the money to buy it Anyone know any vendors that regularly have large amounts of money to buy stuff?

The most I saw was just over 5000 on an armor trader in Riften but it seems random. Last time I checked her she only had 750 so I'm stuck. Each armor piece sells for around 1600-1700 (My speechcraft is low) but no one has even that. I don't want to make a loss of 500 a piece settling for 1000 each

Bought my first house in Whiterun. Not the biggest, but at least it's a place to store all the crap im carrying. It has a cozy feel to it as well.

Once you get the furnishings it's quite cool. No more cobwebs and you'll have a cool alchemy lab as well.

there's a speech perk so you can invest in traders, so they have more money

Nodferatu

just found elven armor, that stuff is built like a tank and is very light.

Slyly got a short burst in tonight while the missus caught up on I'm a celeb. Hit level 15 and went to the throuth of the world. Afterwards decided to head back to whiterun to decorate my house...seem to have hit a glitch, the guy won't give me the option to buy anything. Looked in a few wiki's, none of the suggestions work. Another one had me restart a quest to get it work. Also had the arrow in the head glitch for a while...bit of a pain that the only big technical issues I've had have been quest related. They pull you out of the experience a bit....shame. Ah, I'm just venting, still loving it to bits.

With regards to smithing:
- what are the upgrade levels? Such as fine, flawless legendary etc?
- Is there anything past legendary?
- I had an item(legendary) that i upgraded, it gained some armour but stayed legendary so does that mean they can be upgraded even more?

Elessar

So I'm doing the imperial legion quests and after attacking a fort I'm told to report to Hadvar (the guy who frees you at the start of the game). But I can't find him! Where is he? When I click show on map it just shows the fort, and he's not there...help!

EDIT: Nevermind a reload sorted it.

I'm level 100 smithing with no perks and I get flawless.

Thanks I had no idea of this. Annoying having to spend perks on that though when I want to spend them elsewhere but thanks for that!

Elessar

I got some dwarven armor from a merc I came across in the wild: he was heading to a job and wanted me to assist. I just killed him and took it :P

However it's only the main body and the helmet - where in skyrim is the more of a chance to get my hands on dwarven armor?

I wandered up around the college and Winterhold and as there was a blizzard any time I'd been there before never realised

its beside a sea of ice

so I just watched the sun go down, this has some jaw dropping scenery in it, beautiful looking game in places, crappy phone pic incoming:

I don't think it's available for the house in Whiterun.

Nope, you can't get it in Whiterun. I bought everything else, and it's a fine looking place.

Absolutely agree. Are there seasons in this game? Enroute to a quest I went to Kynesgrove for a second time and it's summer time here - could have sworn the first time it was covered in snow...

But yes I am walking around in awe at the graphics, beautiful blue sky, lush green forests ahead and above me, the clouds moving over the mountains, birds singing...this is a jaw dropping game :eek:

Contender for RPG of the last few years. Definitely game of the year!

How do I buy a house then?

Go to a stable and talk to the guy leaning against one of the supports. Stables are outside nearly every town/city.
