i'm playing a torrented copy so no worrying about updating. my plan was and still is to finish my first playthrough on this copy then buy the Steam version after they have the mod tools out for it. i've learned better than to buy Bethesda games at release, as far as i'm concerned anything they release is in a beta state for a few months until they patch things up sufficiently

Yeah that thing is worthless, I used it on a quest where I had someone with me and we encountered a dragon so I thought I'd use it, the lightning almost never hit the dragon and the girl with me didn't even stop crouching like they usually do after the battle ends and they hit zero health, she crawled all the way home I guess.

You have any good places to collect ingredients, or do you just buy a lot?

Judging by my posts, does it sound like I have ANYTHING good currently going for me in regards to Gaychemy? =|

Enchanting? ####ing easy.

Smithing? ######edly ####ing easy. "Herp Derp IORN DAGORS!"

Alchemy? Lol. Good luck kid.

what's the point in leveling alchemy? you can find potions in any cave or buy them for fairly cheap. hell if you level up enchanting and smithing all the way, you won't even need potions by that point

To translate this: Blaster means is that to make the best end result weapons and enchantments , you need to use potions to both enchant your armor you wear while smithing/enchanting and for the final enchant.

If it's anything like Smithing, Enchantment, or Oblivion Alchemy, you can make much, much more powerful stuff on your own than you can buy at shops.

Also if you use poisons a lot, you can stack a "type" of poison and "favorite" it so you just have to hit a key to re-apply the poison in mid-battle. It's hard to get enough of one type of poison from a merchant to make that worthwhile.

i realize this, but to make my final armor set and weapon i just bought a single smithing and enchanting potion, and i already feel like a god now since nothing can touch me. i'm not sure how maxing alchemy to make me even more powerful would have any effect

Max Smithing potion you can buy? Summat like 50%

Max Smithing potion you can make? 130%

Pffft, Flames Fans. Always willing to settle for second best.

A friend of mine just got the game and found a way to level up like crazy in the ope ing of the game

When you're escaping with the imperial guard and stop by the bear in the cave, he just started attacking him, and he doesn't die

He got 2 handed and sneak to level 100 pretty quick by crouching behind the guard and hitting him

Find an arcane enchanter. Disenchant something to learn how to make that enchantment, then you can apply that enchantment to something new.

Most cities and some dungeons have arcane enchanters in them.

Just save before you use the enchanter, sometimes you get stuck on them and have to load from a previous save.
