Were Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 White (or black?) means skill/attribute is on its normal level. Green means something (spell/enchantment) boosts it \ Red means something has damaged/drained it :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 White (or black?) means skill/attribute is on its normal level. Green means something (spell/enchantment) boosts it \ Red means something has damaged/drained it :? Yeah I know the enchantments part but I don't understand why some are red, nothing has damaged or drained it (except for my scales to Personality). Oh, and how come I can't remove the Blade of Woe or the Vipereye (I can't remove it, and it won't let me wear it, but the effects are still on apparently, but it's not highlighted like I would be wearing it) from my pack? It says they're quest items. I want to remove that Blade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Were Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Blade of Woe You can remove it after [hide=]Completing Dark brotherhood quests[/hide] Vipereye Bug, cant remove it in xbox version :( ---- Try praying at an altar or drink a restoration potion for that skill? Damage effects wont go away like drain spells ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
____ Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 You can use removeitem if it's the PC version. I know I do it with all the random junk for the theives guild; and the market quest. Usually I don't mind for weapons/armour with 0 weight but keys and notes I can't remove (well key for the santuary is the exception) piss me off to no end since it's just more crap to scroll past.

rushrock Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Wait, I've completed a few Dark Brotherhood quests. I'm up to the Fort one where you replace medicine with poison (it's on hold right now because I got bored), and I still can't remove that damn blade. That sucks that there are so many bugs. Someone should patch that or something. Also, does the Game of the Year edition of Oblivion (the one I have I think, might be the X-Box classics one) come with Shivering Isles? How do I go there?

Were Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Too bad they wont be patching the game anymore :/ Portal to Shiv isles is in the Niben bay east of Bravil, on an island :) (did you get the message stating a portal has opened?) BTW the medicine bottle from that quest is a perm quest item, too :? Oh and FULLY complete the Dark brotherhood questline to [hide=]Get the blade enchanted[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I didn't read that, don't want to spoil it. And no, I didn't get that portal message yet. Thanks you guys for helping me out, I'm still sort of a neub. By the way, what's the highest main level you can ascend to? I'm level 16 or 17 I think, one of those. Is that good? (My last level message was the one saying I will never get younger.) By the way again, can you age in this game? When you pick your looks in the beginning, (young, old) does that stay constant?

It's constant, yes. Those messages are your experiences as you level and learn things. You realize that you're not going to get younger, so you have to stay in top form to be able to compete with the newer adventurers. Not sure about a limit. I'm level 30-something, and still have a long way to go, and some here are in the 50-range, I think.

rushrock Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 The highest level a skill can get is 100, right? What happens when all your main skills are maxed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah duh, but how do you up your main level after that if there are level 50+'s in Oblivion? Surely the skills must've been maxed out by then!

____ Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 From memory the max possible character level is 52 without having stats or attributes decreased from jail or whatever. HOWEVER; this requires you to carefully select your 7 major skills; specilisation and birth sign so that all your skills start at the lowest levels possible. AND, if you're tricky, you can max all your attributes with a character like that by level 36 (depending on birth sign). But once all your attributes are maxed; you can't sleep to level up "Perfection can not be improved upon"; so unless you have the PC version you can't use the console to lower your attributes to keep leveling up. Edit: You can also keep leveling on the pc using the console, but legit methods max at 52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VjuliusT Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 *Cough*53*Cough* Anyways thinking of skills to pick on a "ranger" at the moment, I'll post it later for some advice (I hope). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VjuliusT Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I need C/c on this build, please (Magic word :thumbup:...): Race : Bosmer/Argonian. Birthsign: Thief/shadow. Attributes: Agility, speed. Skills: Sneak, marksman, blade, alchemy, light armor/hand to hand and security. I'm not really experienced, so it would be really helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 So, erm, what's the point of Hand to Hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VjuliusT Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Well I mean either blade or hand to hand, I can't decide which one. My brother that pretty much finished the game as warrior told me that it's pretty decent so I'm not sure. Also when I'm using blades it have to be knife or a short sword for fast movement because my defence and health isn't going to be too high (I haven't tried hand to hand before so I don't know (In actual combat)). Hand to hand doesn't sacrifice your movement speed if I'm not wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 No, I mean, what does it do? Nothing, right? Just a weak form of attacking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
____ Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 *Cough*53*Cough* Yea, my bad. Forgot to add the 1 you start on :lol: No, I mean, what does it do? Nothing, right? Just a weak form of attacking? Fatiuges your opponent damn fast. I wasn't even a journeyman of Hand to Hand during the Arena and I could knock people down with a power attack after laying into them for a bit.

____ Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 So what's the best way to incorporate Hand to Hand into battle scenarios?

No, any kind of weapon beats h2h :( If your on pc you should download a h2h mod because the skill is almost useless in vanilla :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VjuliusT Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Oh :P also I'm on the 360 version. Made up a new build, maybe it's better. It's a Mage/Ranger. Race: Argonian/Altmer Attribute: Intelligence (Or willpower) and agility. Skills: Marksman, light armor, alchemy, destruction, blade (or athletics), Conjuration, security. Conjuration is for a target dummy and a "tank" to keep me safe while I shoot arrows/magic. Do I need a close range option if I go with both offensive magic and ranged? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonorhc Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Conjuration and Alchemy level too quickly for major skills. Best swap them out for other things. Your conjuration summons aren't going to be tanking much, since without mods, it'll be a while before you get any summons that are worth anything. Ranged combat involves a lot of running away.
