KenKenPachi you could be right there. it might just be normal items.

IronSabbath88- well when you get high enough level to do each of the dadedar shrine quest you might want to as some of them have awards for blunt weapons and from what a friend told me after you complete all of them the very last one you got a chance of getting a special skill book that gives you something like +10 to a group of your sttributes sor something like that there.

As for me I'm running a Dunmar<dark Elve> Stealth and Marksman with swords as back up.<G> right now I'm level 13 and I'm working on the Dark Brotherhood quests.

Montezuma-I might eventually try out some mods. If and when I decide to try some of them out I'm going to be asking allot of questions from folks before I do install any.<LOL>

Oh yeah, I already got Volendrung, that giant ass hammer. It has some really good attributes as it does Paralyze for 5 seconds and something else. The only downside is it weighs 60 pounds. The thing is huge. Lol. That's the one downside about running Heavy Armor and Blunt weapons is that massive size you intake. But I have high strength that is in the 80's right now so it shouldn't be much of a problem eventually.

What mastery are you of heavy armor currently? Once you get up to Master which is 100 the armor your wearing don't go against your weight.<G> I know I'm a master @ heavy armor and I'm wearing Umbra's ebony armor which is a cool looking set of heavy armor and I've got a matching ebony bow to go along with it.<LOL> Will have to admit that it looks good.

Now a couple of things for you to think about if you come across things that Feather enchantment by all means uses them. It helps with the amound for which you can carry as well. I got a ring thats like 65 pts. Also things you get that fortify strength. Currently I'm working on the Dark Brotherhood quests. A couple of them so far you had to have a very high sneak skill plus chamelon items to get through it.

I finally finished the Mage Guild quests and was able to enter the Arcane University. It might be awhile before I make the staff though, as I hear it scales to level and I'm only level 2.I might try the Fighter Guild quests next.

[Mike 9987]

i like to play it, but i have never finished the story. i get too wrapped up in side stuff.

Mike Smith-I've yet to do the mages do to the fact that I've never been a fan of mages and the staff wouldn't do me all that much good anyway. I've got 5 or 6 @ one of my houses I'm going to sell when I get around to it as I've got no use for them. I've completed the fighters guild quests and almost 1/2 way through the Dark Brotherhood. DB has some very interesting quests and you've got to be of decent level to pull some of them off. After I do the DB than it's the thieves. I so love running stealth.

Saphra Deden- Oh ok I've not even thought about doing that one there yet. The plan that I've got is finish up DB do the TG and than do Knights of Nine.

I think doing the mages guild quest's are required, if you have any sort of interest in making custom spells/enchanted armor and you don't have the Wizard's Tower add on. Could be wrong though, it's been awhile since I played Oblivion.

You could be right there. As this is my first time playing through the game I'm not sure myself. As for the DLC add ons only ones for which I've got is Shivering Isles and Knights of Nine. Was debating on whether or not the others were worth getting or not as I've yet to hear anything about them.

[KenKenpachi]

I've been thinking of dusting it off, going at it again, but crap that game was long.

i did all the trophies a couple of days ago :-)

Redneck - You can place multiple enchantments on weapons, such as fire damage and also frost damage, or weakness to poison and poison damage, etc. If you do use multiple enchantments on a weapon, be careful - you're going to blow through the charge on that thing fast, especially if you use higher powered spells (20 fire damage uses more of a charge then 5 fire damage, for example).

You CAN'T place multiple enchantments on armor, amulets, rings, etc. Each is one and done - +STR or +INT or a light spell or a feather spell, resistence to poison spell, etc.

Also - you can't enchant unique items. So anything already enchanted, that's what it is - you can't change or add to it.

Level 13 should be fine to do Shivering Isles or Knights of Nine. Most of Oblivion scales to your level, or is supposed to, anyway. Boss fights may be a little more challenging, but I wouldn't expect them to be abnormally so. I did Shivering Isles rather early in my previous game, and was able to complete it.

And if you wait until you finish DB and TG to do KoN, you'll likely be at least level 15 or above by the time you do KoN, and then level 17 or so when you finish that. You'll be fine.

More like a couple of weeks ago for me. So with having unlocked all the trophies, beating all the side quests, and finding all of the area's I really have no motivation to replay it again.

Thanks for taking the time to find out and pass along the information I really appreciate it allot. As for the enchanting I kind of figure that was the way it was going to be. So when I enchant something better make sure it's what I want.<LOL> 

Ok well currently I've pretty much did a number on the DB quests. Got to go kill some retired military sob now and than I'll see what is left  to do after that for DB and than I'll be moving on to the thieves.

Anyone know if the other DLC's for which are available are wroth getting?  I was thinking of getting them but wondered what others thought about them.

Ken what trophy's are you talking about?

[TJPags]

The only DLC I've played is SI and KoN, which came with my game of the year edition.

I'm considering getting a few - Fighter's Stronghold, the Orrery, perhaps Thieves Den. But I'll wait until I complete my current game before deciding.

I was thinking about getting a few ot them myself like the Thieves Den and Fighters Stronhold. Right now I just killed off Adamus Phillida for the Permanent Retirement quest of the DB. Now I've just got to put his finger in the desk. Looks harder than what it sounds from what I've seen so far. Any suggestions?<LOL>

It doesn't seem like the PS3 version was supported by Bethesda very much-no trophies and only the Shivering Isles expansion available for download. I hope they do a better job with Skyrim.

I hope so too. As a PS3 user, I will be royally pissed if they only make DLC for PCs and the 360 like they did with Oblivion.

I found this, made me laugh.

Ok folks currently working on the Dark Brotherhood quests and started Lucien Lachance's quest the first one being Purification where I had to kill all the other guild members. Don't think I'll be running my own DB chapter.<LOL> But none the less I got a reward of a horse from him called Shadowmere. Does anyone use a horse or you prefer to fast travel every where? Can you use a bow while on a horse? Was curious as this is the first horse I've had in the game. Thought of buying one but wasn't sure. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Also under horses owned shouldn't it be one instead of 0 since shadowmere was given to me?

I've used horses a little bit-you can fast travel while using a horse. You keep them in stables when you stop at a town. I haven't been able to attack while on a horse, I usually have to dismount. I may be doing it wrong though. It seems a bit difficult for me to control the horse while riding, but that may simply be inexperience. I think you have to buy a horse for it to show under horses owned.

Well yes I'm finding that I'm not having the easiest time in the navigating of the norse to be honest with you there. But like you said it could be my inexperience in game with the use of the horse.  Well now will have to admit that I never thought of fast travelling with the horse might have to give that there a shot. Of course if you fast travel whats the sense of owning the horse?  I would have thought that since the horse was freeling given to you that you know owned it and it would have shown up as one that you owne. But you maybe right it might only be on the ones for which you purchase.

[Get Magna Carter]

the problem with fast travel is I once ended up underneath the area I was trying to get to (due to a bug). I personally found horses to be more hassle than useful (Morrowind did not have any horses due to Dunmer barbecue traditions)
Note if you finish the DB quests then you are in charge of the local group.
One thing that bothered me about the purification is just how oblivious they were to me doing it one by one. The final one (the male Argonian) who had only just managed to survive one poisoned apple completely disregarded the corpses of others who had died from the apples and Antoinette who had been stabbed to death in her bed and went to his own bed...

Well now how can there be a local group when you killed them by means  of the purification.<LOL> But will agree with you in regards to the purification. Heck I managed to kill all but 2 with apples one was the mage and the other was the Vincente the vampire. Vampire died from an o.d of garlic while talking to the mage assasin. Whats the mage assasin do go back to casting his spells in the training room where they both were. Took him out with Umbra. 3 died in the living quarters at the same table two in the same chair. and Oceeva died in her quarters.

*Edit*
Saphra Deden- Only thing is with the fame and infamy I think that you get fame points for allot of the quests to be honest with you. So I think that would be hard to get more infamy than fame. Of course I could be wrong on this here. I mean even with all the ones I've killed in the assinatations guild quests I don't have as many murders as I should have. Go figure that one there out?
