Game: Skyrim

[Kraco]

Hilariously, Fire Atronachs indeed die from a couple fire spells, but trolls, who are supposed to be weak to fire, still take a good number of hits.

Fire atronachs are weak anyway, but trolls are supposed to have quite a bunch of HP. Furthermore, maybe the bug didn't only remove positive resistance but removed the weakness to fire as well. That would mean trolls can eat more fire than they should. Without the bonuses, negative or posite, it's all up to the absolute HP and all manner of beasts and tougher NPCs beat the human player at that.

Btw, has anybody paid attention to what degree general magic resistance can compete with elemental resistance? If it can, does it also protect from dragons' breath attacks (or shouts in general)? In Oblivion elemental resistance protected from that particular elemental attack and also raised the general AC, whereas magic resistance protected from all elemental and other hostile magic but didn't affect the AC. I'm pretty sure in Skyrim elemental resistance does nothing to the AC, though, which naturally would weaken it compared to magic resistance if the latter is still universal.

What's AC?

It seems Ryll nearly always makes character builds that I would like/intend to make, one step ahead of me. Grrrr!

[Kraco]

What's AC?

Armor Class. I couldn't immediately recall what manner of word Elder Scrolls use for how good your armor is, so I used the D&D word.

[Ryllharu]

Buff, just be glad TES doesn't use Thac0.

[Xelbair]

Indeed, be glad... i hated that rule in dnd Ryll.

I haven't experienced any problems with the 1.2 patch either. Level 55 and going through the Brotherhood quests now. Can't wait until I complete them so I can kill everyone in the group.

lol.. (just had to do it. :P )

Who do you want to kill most?

All of them. They're so full of themselves. Though I do appreciate Astrid's shapeliness in her brotherhood garments.

Tell me how you feel about it all once you've completed the quest.

[Animeniax]

Tell me how you feel about it all once you've completed the quest.

Spoilerish:

Yeah I got the main objective of the Brotherhood quest and it's pretty mind-blowing, but I haven't completed it yet. I already joined the Stormcloaks so it makes sense. I imagine if I had joined the Imperials my target would be Ulfric instead.

I haven't joined sides, but my target was the same as yours. (PS: What I meant was to see if you felt like killing everybody once it's all over. )

[Animeniax]

I see what you mean now. I just spent almost $20k to fix up the new headquarters... but they'll all die anyway. After you complete the Brotherhood and thieves guild missions, do you continue to do quests for them to make money? Or does it culminate in some larger quest or purpose? If it's just money, I'm going to slaughter both groups soon.

Also, here's my housecarl/soon to be wife in HD glory (some mods applied):

Nazir's quests will run out. The Night Mother will keep giving you quests indefinitely without benefit other than the pay.

The Thieve's Guild ones.. now they're a bit different. I don't know if it's just with Delvin's jobs or if they apply to Vex as well, but every 5 jobs you'll get a special one that has an impact on improving the guild. In one of them, you'll gain an extra fence.

Some tips if you get married:

-You have to wait a day after the day the wedding is arranged to show up at the temple of Mara in Riften.
-Once you get married, immediately speak to your wife while still inside the temple or she will disappear and you won't get to set where you will live together.
-It may take a day or two before she appears at your agreed upon home.
-If you have a housecarl at that house, hilarity may ensue between the housecarl and your wife.
-In general it seems wives will not wear other outfits without some console commands to alter that behavior.

What's amazing about that cover is that she doesn't actually speaky any english.

This are my housecarl/sword maiden in her enhanced Nightingale outfit and me with my Bustersword and dragonscale armor redone as nightingale armor:

You can enchant already enchanted items?

Or is there a perk that lets you diseenchant things without breaking them?

What exactly gave you that idea?

No, as far as I know, you can't enchant something that is already enchanted, even to add a second enchantment if you have that perk. The dragonscale is modded to look like nightingale and the bustersword is an add-on so you can smith your own. Only bad thing is that it weighs 30 lbs and is a two-handed weapon. The enhanced nightingale is only visual, no extra enchantments from the stock.

He said Enhanced not Enchanted, he's using the HQ texture mod for the nightingale armor.

[Buffalobiian]

Ah, I see.. yeah, I misread enhanced for enchanted.
