Beautiful. My favorite is the classic one from Morrowind. Don't have a link.

Oddly I can only recall the theme of Morrowind.

But I can recall most of the music in Skyrim.
Still thinking on it I really cant wait to start my Khajiit assassin.

Imagine Zevran but with NONE of his redeeming qualities.


Ah the memories

People ask me why I play an Orc.

That is why.


Awesome.  I'd stick with that armor and just improve it to legendary.

I already improved it to Epic.

With all the perks my armor is at 750 or so, so there is no real point to going on.
Also my hammer now hits for 100 damage, and I ignore 75% of armor on foes...so I pretty much have become:

With a good mix of Sauron thrown in to allow me to clobber anyone who even thinks of getting in my way. Enemy mages are no problem since I can blitz into them at high speed and deliver a powerful crushing blow.

Seems that after this patch, Skyboost/TESVAL won't be needed anymore, all users report heavy FPS gain, even over games already using framerate optimizers.


Yeah, I've been too busy to play too much of anything lately, but just tried out the beta 1.4 patch and WOW. Areas like looking out on Whiterun from Dragonsreach or looking out on Markarth  used to kill my framerate, even with Skyboost but with the 1.4 beta patch, everything is a solid 50-60 fps now, no problem. It really makes a huge difference.

You know playing in first person I forgot at times something rather important:

Seeing THAT guy coming at you is probably a VERY terrifying thing to behold.
I mean I roasted the first guy you cant see and ONE the two other people I almost feel bad for that person.

Without the blades, Dovahkiin would probably be chilling with the greybeards practicing the (useless) way of the voice while Alduin laid waste to the world. The blades are the only ones who seem to be actively trying to stop Alduin.


The Blades lost all my respect with their mindless "kill Paarthurnax or you're not allowed in my sandbox" ultimatum.

The only tangible contribution they give the Dragonborn is that a shout was used to defeat Alduin, and even this is a debatable contribution since it is Paarthurnax who not only relays the same information, but actually guides the Dragonborn in the path to figure out what this shout actually is.

I'd guess so. At the very least, you probably need magic and/or elemental resistance. Magic users and dragons are really deadly later on if you don't work on improving your magical defences.

Though if you're going sword&board, you can probably do without it - after you get the Block perk that negates 50% of elemental damage thrown at you. In particular if you're Breton and/or use the Lord standing stone and did the Mara temple quest for +15% MR. Actually a Breton with the Lord sign and Mara's quest could probably even manage without Block (maybe just wear some magic/elemental resist shoes/ring/amulet as needed/available).

Even with that perk, mages can ruin your day until you get Spellbreaker. Some elemental resist is helpful, also stamina boost for warriors and archers.

Do they become non-essential if you side with Paarthurnax?

In my case I sided with Paarthurnax and the Greybeards at each step of the way and didn't speak with the Blades further, so I supposed I missed out on the Blades faction questline.

I prefer the Shield of Solitude, at least until I can add the 30% Resist magic perk in Alteration. That leaves the Breton sitting on 95% (25% Breton + 25% Lord Stone +15% Agent of Mara + 30% RM perk). Toss in an item of choice, and you can smile at distant mages and Dragons for a while.

Not into the Wards much at all; even the IG test runs with other Mages tend to drain the pool too quickly. Plus I dislike many of the Daedra quests personally, and wish to toss them back to Oblivion if possible.

95% MR is a bit excessive, considering the cap at 85%. You can stack some elemental resistance on top, if you wish though... 85% MR and 85% ER that would be... like 97,75 damage resistance?

I thought Spellbreaker has no limited pool to drain? Or does it?

I don't see why you wouldn't want to.  Once you get up in levels, physical damage  eventually becomes the least of   your worries.  Now you'll find yourself having to contend with  mages spamming you with high level  fire and lightning spells;   And  your own stamina/magicka/health not  replenishing  as fast as you'd want it to; you also might want to take care of the carry capacity issue once and for all.  etc.   That's the purpose of enchanting your stuff.

Of course,  if you're 'power-gaming'  you might want to hold off on enchanting your daedric gear until  your enchanting skill is at 100, and you've acquired the  Extra Enchantment  perk, that way you can put 2 enchantments on every piece of your armor.

Yeah, Orcish armor is pretty cool... then again, the Daedric set looks even more badass :D

Thanks for the tip! I only have 85% now, so this may save me a perk!

Nope they remain essential.  Even after I killed Alduin they refuse to welcome me until I kill Paarthurnax.

Funny how according to the lore Orcs are... excrement.

Orcs were born during the latter days of the Dawn Era. History has mislabeled them beastfolk, related to the goblin races, but the Orcs are actually the children of Trinimac, strongest of the Altmeri ancestor spirits. When Trinimac was eaten by the Daedroth Prince Boethiah, and transformed in that foul god's insides, the Orcs were transformed as well. The ancient name for the Orcs is 'Orsimer,' which means 'The Pariah Folk.' They now follow Malauch, the remains of Trinimac.

Who is Malauch?

He is more commonly know as the Daedroth Prince Malacath, 'whose sphere is the patronage of the spurned and ostracized, the sworn oath, and the bloody curse.' He is not technically a Daedra Lord, nor do the other Daedra recognize him as such, but this is fitting for his sphere. Of old he was Trinimac, the champion of the High Elven pantheon, in some places more popular than Auri-El, who protected them against enemies without and within. When Trinimac and his followers attempted to halt the Velothi dissident movement, Boethiah ate him. Trinimac's body and spirit were corrupted, and he emerged as Malacath. His followers were likewise changed for the worse. Despised by everyone, especially the inviolate Auri-El, they quickly fled to the northern wastes, near Saarthal. They fought Nords and Chimer for a place in the world, but did not get much. In Skyrim, Malacath is called Orkey, or Old Knocker, and his battles with Ysmir are legendary.

Must've been quite a shock, looking like regular Altmer and then the next day waking up as Shrek.

Even though he is "corrupted" Malacath comes off far more reasonably than most of the Daedric pantheon.

Least he does not demand I slaughter someone like say:
Molag Bal, Mehrunes Dagon, Boethiah, Mephala, Peryite, Vaermina.... well you get the point.

Out of all of them he seems like the one who cares for his followers.

Another thing did get me thinking though, since the Daedric princes only really seem to manifest near their shrines and dont seem to hold a lot of power away from them. I wonder if Martin slamming the gates shut actually changed how they can affect Tamriel now.

Malacath is pretty cool in Lord of Souls. He's dismissive of his origin tale stating something along the lines of 'You mortals take things far too literally'.

Right now, I'm trying to sacrifice someone to Boethiah, but i think the quest is glitched.

Crap is just another word for fertilizer.  In this case, fertilizer for badass.  Image IPB

This guy is clearly faking it.  And apparently he couldn't afford the gauntlets

Got engaged to this.  Now that's what you call a bad case of beer goggles.

Moira always sends hit squads after me for stealing from Anise.  That hag definitely has to die.
