i came to the point where the mods i ahd for oblivion were twice is big as vanilla so i cant imagine what to expect from an even larger community.
but ye history has shown that in a matter if weeks we will have all the textures, all renders, ... pretty much everything rewritten by the modding community.
It's no fun, though. There was a similar bug (or more like a quirk) in Morrowind, where you created a fortify intelligence potion using Alchemy. Now, since Intelligence was the governing attribute of Alchemy, your alchemy results would be better after you drank the potion, so you drank it, created a new fortify intelligence potion, drank it, repeat.. Until you had tens of thousands of points in intelligence and could create potions that lasted for weeks of real life time and increased your stats by the thousands.
With stats like that, you just oneshot absolutely everything in the game even with the Master difficulty setting. It sort of ruins it.
I used to have a mage in Oblivion with 100% Chameleon. I also used the "debuff stacking" bug/quirk with Destruction when I felt like oneshotting guys. It worked like this:
Create three spells, two with weakness to magicka AND weakness to fire 100% on touch, and one with fire damage 100 (or so) on touch. Then chain-cast the weakness spells. They would stack, and the weakness to magicka effect would multiply both of them, eventually leading to the target having like a 3000% weakness to fire and magicka. Then you'd blast them with the damage spell, which would deal ridicilous amounts of damage thanks to the multiplier.
game look awesome, going to try play it next week :)
Should I go for light or heavy armor ? guess I will stop using dagger now and use more bows :)
beth fucked smithing up... go play pure mage on master , enjoy manly tears
collected 20k septim so far (sure there is some of you that got more, but i still think its pretty much without cheats!) and going to buy a house somewhere. any advices where a good place is?
edit: with "finishing the game" i was talking about finishing the main quest. :P still got a lot of the sidequests going on (feels like there are OVER 9000 of them)
just click the place or the city on your map where you want to go and click 'yes'. if you have not discovered this place yet, the game asks you if you want to set a marker there.
edit: well ok, hmmm....i think it depends on your personal taste. i personally would prefer heavy armor always to light armor, because i trained my chara to have big endurance so it can take many blasts without dying.
The house in solitude is 25k WITHOUT the upgrades and the one in windhelm is 12k. My first house was ofcourse Whiterun because there are alot of shops. Second I got was Solitude because its the biggest one. Riften is great if you have done the thieves guild, but it's rather ugly. Windhelm is also a nice house. But with fast travel it doesn't really matter :)
I got about the same amount of souls/shouts, got a few extra souls though. Most Factions give a few shouts along their quests without a dragon near it, which is where you should spend your souls. Also if you need more shouts, just look for the dragon icon when exploring, means there is a dragon + word nearby.
But I am lvl 28, 100 smithing, 75+ one-handed, 50+ heavy armor, 50 block, around 50 archery aswell.
I rushed through major portions of the game though, so going to take it easy on a second playthough. Saved Mages Guild, Dark brotherhood and most interessting sidequests for this playthrough :)
sneak in a corner, running backwards into a wall. go sleep. receive lvl 100 sneak
