This game is amazing except for the level scaling. Why even give me the choice to invest in anything other than combat if doing so means I get OHKO'd by half of the enemies in the game?
Because investing in other skills is how you level up your character fast. And leveling up means you can add points to your health, which makes it harder for enemies to OHKO you. And there are tons of other
combat-specific reasons to invest in these other skills Take Alchemy for example. You can brew a poison that renders any mage you hit *once* from ever casting another spell. (Ravage magicka.... drains your opponent of 100% of his magicka). Then there's Blacksmithing.... mentioned about 1000 times on this thread. Work on your blacksmithing, and you can be wearing and wielding ebony gear by level 12 or 13 (that's about 15 levels sooner than the game drops it from creatures you kill) And once you're wearing Ebony or Daedric gear, you won't get one-shotted ever again.
As for level scaling when it comes to enemies.... does that even exist in this game? I'm 34th level, and With a few exceptions (namely bosses), and I'm still fighting the same types of creatures I was fighting when I was 10th level, and they don't seem to have gotten any more powerful. For example, I was about 13th level when I faced my first Frost troll. Back then he was kicking my ass in about 10 seconds. Had to reload that encounter about 15 times. Now, at 34th level, I'm still facing frost trolls, only I'm 1-shotting them now. Same thing with Restless Draugrs. They're nasty opponents, if you're 8th level. But face 4 of them bunched together at 34th level and you can kill them all with a single sideways power attack.
