Well, in Morrowind I was a Sorcerer and rarely used magic at all. I actually turned into a pretty sweet fighter (most weapons/armor at 100, high STR maxed AGI). You still level things by using them right? I like being able to totally deviate from the class I chose.
i posted my cahracter in the other thread, but ill post it here too, because it is soo badass high elf male magic intelligence, willpower sign of the lady alchemy alteration blade conjuration destruction illusion mysticism then just hop or run everywhere. sneak around people who are asleep, and use charm spell or scroll when bartering. if you think you may get into heavier melee, replace one of the crappier magics (mysticism? or even alchemy..theres tons of chances to play with it) with an armor specialty. btw, anyone go vampire hunting under imperial city? im down in the bloodworks I just kind of stumbled across it. is there a quest associated with this?
I was down in the bloodworks for the last thieves guild mission and i managed to kill them all without contracting polymorphic-whatever-the-fuck but then i went to sleep and got bitten so Im a goddamn vampire anyway. On a lighter note, I completed the thieves guild and you get a pretty sick item when its over. The last mission is tough though, ghosts are the gayest enemies out there. And oblivion gates take forever to complete, everything is pretty easy to kill except storm astronachs, I cant take them head to head, they just dont get hurt that much, even from my 13 base damage 20 fire damage shortsword i got.
WTF Man, I went to go kill the old man sitting on his chair (have to loosen the fastenings). Well, I walk into the house and he's like "get out! Go away", I leave the house and his male servant runs after me and attempts to kill me. The guards and a citizen bust his ass and I go to kill the guy and it says I failed the bonus because I killed his servant. Sucks...What was the bonus?
woot I just spent waaay too much time closing the gate in snatch...er kvatch. scamps are tough on a high elf. time to go join the mages guild...daddy needs some new spells!
Hmmm.... I found a 22 damage longsword that weighs 0 and is enchanted with soul trap 120 seconds. Pretty hot. Oh, and the Grey Cowl is friggin awesome, detect life 120 feet, lets you carry an extra 200 pounds, you can kill all the people you want and you take it off..... no one even remembers that you just mauled the guard captain and ganked some random loser.
Yeah well my fricking repair bill is usually around 1500 after an oblivion gate, then arrows, then around 2500 for recharging my damn weapons. I got Astra's Star which is supposedly a reuseable grand soul gem but I havent tried it out yet.
I finished the main storyline this weekend but I still have soooo much more to do. I've barely touched any of the guild stuff although I have done a fair number of side quests.
I had to put this game down, I think I may uninstall it. I had it for a little over a week and I had played 43 hours. Im quitting cold turkey.
Good god, pace yourself. I've only put 17 hours in and that's on and off playing when I have the time. Are you sick of it or it's too addicting?
I was home sick with mono so I had alot of time where I couldnt do anything at all but play. I havent played for 4 days, I could go on but I kind of want to play.
