Well my friend just sent me a picture of his armor rating and here it is.


How does it even become fun anymore when you do this stuff?

All that armor does nothing. You can get a max of 80% reduction from physical damage at an armor rating of 567 and anything higher is a waste. Damage though has no cap so if he made a weapon then he will be killing everything in one hit.

The point is, why cheat in this game? Only shortening the life span of the game.

Well that is stupid, really stupid. That would basically mean the heavy armor and light armor perks are wasted when you use them on well fitted and matching set. I have a armor rating of 1184 and you mean to tell me I could of saved my perks that i used in heavy armor as long as I have around a 600 armor rating?

If what your saying is true there is basically no difference between light dragon scale and heavy deadric armor other than the simple fact light moves faster basically making heavy armor users useless?

Why have perks that don't do anything in the game? I'm a little irritated right now in all the time I put into smithing and creating a set of smithing armor just so I could make my armor beter.

Just got the platinum trophy. I think I am going to put it down, maybe until the GOTY edition with all the DLC.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Two achievements left, need to grab 100,000 gold and pickpocket 40 or so more people.

Finally got my Curved. Sword.

Try the ships in Solitude's docks, one has pirate guys. Not sure if it's a spoiler that needs tagging, as it's a generic weapon and an area you can see normally.

I wouldn't say all the perks are wasted. I mean the Light Armor tree has a few solid perks with the 50% stamina regeneration and 10% chance to evade any physical attack while Heavy has the perk to make it weigh nothing so you can haul more loot. The armor cap to get the 80% damage reduction probably should have been around an armor rating of 800 or so with how easy it is to get that high once your smithing is at a high enough level.

I probably won't hit that mark for a while though since I am happy with my Nightingale armor which is just awesome looking.

Meh. Probably just really windy where that guy was. Besides...who hasn't seen a saber cat get trapped in the Phantom Zone from Superman and get shot straight up in the air where it vanishes never to be seen again? Happens all the time.

Not sure if this has been posted but I think you guys need to see this...

Does this surprise anyone? A dirty Browns player shoved an opponent down. If it's brown, flush it down!

Actually my favorite of those videos is the one with the lady standing on the table, for whatever reason, and falling down because of FUS RO DAH.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

I have a question for you guys, but I'll put it in spoilers in case it is story driven event rather than a result of something I actually did.

Spoiler

I was in Solitude and was selling some weaponry to the Smith. I walked out of the gates and was immediately met by 4 thugs who went right into beatdown mode. I defeated them and took all their possessions including a note that was a hit contract. It said "teach that thief XXX a lesson. I don't want you to kill him, but if it happens.....whatever, Hroggan(I'm paraphrasing obviously). Now....I did notice that I had a dagger in my inventory that said "stolen", but I don't remember stealing anything(except from Drela's Cottage when I cleaned it out after accidentally killing him after he attacked me.)
Is it a story line or did I indeed pilfer something without realizing it from this guy Hroggan

Thanks....and does anybody know where he is. He is a dead man now.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Anyone else stop and listen to the Bards in the Inns when thing sing the Dragonborn song?

I always do, cause I'm like: "That's me, bitch."

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

That was weak, more like just a FUS is all.

I know man. If you just have Fus then you might as well use slow time or something...

You stole something from him at some point. He's in Morthal.

This game blows away Oblivion.....badly.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

I'm kinda surprised "arrow to the knee" took off as a meme and not FUS RO DAH . I mean, look at the Star Wars Force Push and how popular it is...
