Custom spell for ya'll: Wing cut - Levitate magnitde 1 for 1 second on target. This will make cliff racer's lose their ability to fly and will take fall damage or drown if they land in water; a 60 second version is good to make enemies doof around in the air while walking slow.
I never thought of that one. I've used burden before to be a dick and pelt someone with throwing knives and darts from afar. Also if your personality is high enough nothing will fight you. Food for thought on that one.
Sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!
I know this is over a year late at this point, but...I started Morrowind a little over a year ago, and hit this wall and wasn't sure what to do, so I took a break after a few months. I've been thinking about picking it up again recently and have been looking at some tips to help me out when I do. Most new player tips for this game seemed to be geared toward what you should do to make your life easier (fastest way to make a lot of gold very early, locations for good early starting equipment than can carry a low level player, etc), but they take out a lot of the fun of exploring and learning about the game yourself. Yours is truly what I would call new player tips. You provide some basic info about the world/setting, a brief explanation of mechanics that help with decision making for character creation, some things to keep in mind while playing, and a general framing/approach to the game. You do all that without trying to tell anybody optimal ways to play, things to do if they want 'x', or anything that is going to make someone feel like they can't be successful if they do certain things first that seem to be repeated in so many other new player tips videos, while encouraging people that anyway they want to play can likely be done, it just takes some time. Your video is exactly what I was looking for in a new player tips video. It's like the little booklets used that games used to come with, but in video format. It sets up some basics of the game without spoiling any of the actual content. I've checked out some of the other vidoes in you channel and they seem to follow the same format. I'd be very interested in seeing similar videos for other games, even some newer ones.
If I had to recommend a guide for friends who wants to play Morrowind. I'll show them this. Too many channels are making overly long video guides that feel like they're validating their expertise rather than actually being accessible for newcomers.
You can buy some useful enchanted items for pretty cheap early in the game. -The Khajit trader near the silt strider in Balmora has several weapons that let you Summon Bound weapons for 60 seconds. The longsword version and one's that add a damage shield are expensive but the basic dagger and spear are under 200 septims and give you high damage weapons that you don't have to worry about repairing. -Veloth's helms and shields from a Temple enchanter in Balmora will give you a heal self for 10 points effect and the light armor versions will cost you around 100 septims. You can only cast them 5-6 times before waiting for them to recharge but there's no spell animation so you can chain cast them for a quick 50 points of health. The charge will also recover over in time even if you're in a city (unlike your own mana). The trader in Caldera also has a Veloth's Robe if you are going unarmored. -The mage guild enchanter in Balmora will have an amulet that restores fatigue. It doesn't have enough charge to use on an ongoing basis but can give you a quick recharge if you get caught by surprise. -The trader in Caldera has an Unlock for 20 points amulet. This can be very useful in lower level dungeons until you have enough skill with Security or Alteration skill to cast Unlock yourself.
Thank you for this video. No “steer away from x” or “use y for a good time.” Just generic useful tips for a new player wanting to experience daggerfall for the first time while steering away from too many details on any one point.
hey dude, great video. i was a bit overwhelmed after starting morrowind for the first time bc i only know games that hold ur hand like crazy and u helped a lot in explaining the general stuff, thanks man
For fast travel options I would recommend also installing the official Bethesda plug-in "Master Index". It turns hunting down the various propylon indices (already existing in vanilla version), into a quest where you get paid for each index and after returning all ten to a certain individual, you get a Master Index which turns Caldera Mages Guild into super useful transportation hub. The master index can send you to ten different locations (Dunmer strongholds) scattered all over Vvardenfell, some of which are in one most hard to reach areas. Really useful when quests take you into those remote areas. You can also return to Caldera from these locations.
Killer video my dude! I just want to say one thing that I hope others might find useful. As a member of the great house Telvanni, while in game/in lore the Telvanni hate and the Mages Guild and vice versa. You can totally join both organizations and lead them both in game. I can only think of 2 little speed bumps. 1. The only practical issue you might run into is early on (assuming you just join both right out of the gate, which I recommend you do for making life easy) is that the starting disposition might be a little lower. But nothing should be locked out to you, assuming you don't go all klepto/mass murderer on either group. 2. If I remember right a person can count on one hand the amount of quests that one group can give you that will piss off the other. All of whom can be avoided, and it won't bork you ability to lead both groups. Also you will be able to clearly tell from the what the quest giver in question wants you do which quests will piss off the other. Again just avoid them and you'll do just fine.
Yep it's totally possible to do quests for rival factions as long as you keep everyone's disposition up. I think if you want to do both Thieves Guild and Fighters Guild you have to do it in a certain order, but usually all you have to worry about is your disposition with the rival faction's quest givers. Just speechcraft or bribe them basically.
I find it really hard to not play altmer personally, especially hybrids . 1.5 mana boost is massive, and you can just compensate for their low attributes with either the steed or the lady. After that you can raise strength by jumping everywhere and taking long blade lessons. However it's true, any race can do anything, the only thing that's really different is how you need to adjust at the start of the game. Argonians and Khajits do have a big disadvantage with armor pieces but they can still play any role.
If you want a lot of money as well as a bunch of skill increases make Alchemy one of your minor skills. Make a bunch of potions with cheap ingredients in bulk.
I liked this guide, because so many other guides just emphasize abusing knowledge of item locations and such. I dont wanna look at the game as something to beat, but to experience. So videos that tell me how I can chug a bunch of alcohol and kill umbra at level one isn't useful. Thanks for the vid bud.
1:30 "All the magic skills are useful for healing, levitation, teleportation, etc.". That's why you take alchemy. It covers all of those in one skill. If you spread out too thin and pick up magic skills for the sole purpose of using 1 or 2 spells from each school, you're never gonna level those skills up.
Except you can't turn the Tower Key power into a new and better Open 100 spell. Honestly, if you're going to have to buy the spell anyway, might as well get a different sign for it.
This guide helps me ALOT, honestly bought morrowind because of a 3 way deal sale for the Elder scroll titles, and i played Skyrim and oblivion but never went to morrowind but i heard the magic in morrowind is amazing, i made an inpearl because i wanted to be a persuasion and sweet talker with magic, so i went down the Personality and got it up to 80, also got Mystic and Enchanting as well as Restoration and Alteration, Filled out my paper work, got my Hotkeys fixed around, grabbed the Lady Stone and walked out door, took me 5 minutes to figure out how to equip magic just to learn you have a Weapon hand, and a Magic hand, two separate Tools AMAZING Looked at my basic spells and saw "Water walking", uh HELL YEAH, Casted that bad boy, and went to 3rd person to see my derpy self walking on water like God himself, Casted it more and i failed the spell.. felt so realistic, Then i got bombarded with the "Where do i go, what do i do" feeling as Skyrim and oblivion kinda just Tell you where to go, but i was told in morrowind the game dose not hold your hand. Right now im trying to figure out how to get my magic bar to go back up, do i gotta wait an hour or actually drink a potion?
You can naturally regen magicka by resting using the T key like how you wait in Oblivion/Skyrim. You can rest anywhere in the wilderness. Resting in the middle of a town is illegal though, your character will just wait instead of resting and you won't regen anything. If you want to rest in a town then you need a bed.
i made a spell that is a bane to all cliffracers and is probably the most hilarious spell to use on them. on target Levitate 1 mag 1 sec. makes the cliffracers forget how to fly and they fall to the ground and die from fall damage, super cheap to cast and can basically make this spell at level 1, you can even have fun with this idea and make it be an AoE targeted effect so you just round up all the cliffracers and hit them with it and watch them all fall and die lol, also makes it easier on a melee character because sometimes they get stuck above you in the sky.
Don't forget the dunmer stronghold teleports! Getting all the stones can be frustrating, but hey, the guy pays you 500 per one. A good thing to mention is that while training is powerful, you cannot train a skill above your attribute. Need 50 speed to train short blade to 50 for instance.
Just like no fast travel is a half-truth, so is the concept that the game isn’t leveled. There’s 100% leveled enemies, but not leveled loot. Not to say powerful enemies won’t be omnipresent in some locations, but many wild/ancestor tomb enemies are leveled, along with daedric creatures
I was gonna go play Morrowind, after a long hiatus. That hiatus is going to end soon. xD Thanks so much for these lessons, Serjo. They're all very helpful! *Atronach Birthsign, FTW!!!* ✊✨👌
Thank you Kind Sir I am a new player. I started the game a couple of days ago and was so lost I have over 1 thousand hours in skyrim so I wasnt used to the no handholding this game does but I dont want to give up The lore and story seems so cool!
Morrowind definitely has a learning curve for Skyrim players, but it gets easier the more you familiarize yourself with it. They are similar in many ways.
In the beginning, you forgot to mention the quest where you have to sit at the lighthouse and watch Fargoth and you get 300 gold if you don't turn it in, quickest way to get a decent amount of gold.
@@bradleymunson4669 Death of a taxman will give you 500-700 depending on the choices you make, plus a ring worth 240 if you decide not to return it to Thavere. Honestly, If you know your shit and are willing to steal some stuff, you can leave Seyda Neen with over 2500 Septims
Meh just kill a dark brother hood and sell his to the creeper. 3200 gold. And steal the orc armor in the same building as the creeper, another 3kish gold and no crime reported. Can be done at lvl 1.
Using the Frenzy Humanoid magical effect is a great way to get away with murder. Invisibility lets you avoid combat that is too hard to win at the moment.
@@sethleoric2598 Yeah it's part of a questline to get to Mournhold which is where the Tribunal expansion takes place. You should see it in your quest log as "Dark Brotherhood Attacks" or something. And actually I think the attacks stop once you talk to Apelles Matius about it in Ebonheart. You don't have to finish the quest in Mournhold if I remember correctly. If I also remember correctly you can't farm the assassins infinitely as they stop spawning after a while on their own.
Alchemy and mercentile was useful in early game just buy motar and pestle,mix everything you take from house/ingredient sources and sold unnecessary potions to any local alchemists or traders
Did you mention Wood elf? I loved wood elfs. They were so agile. When i lvld up enough i could poke guards in Balmora and tease jump around the roofs. Actually got so much agility i could jump from ground up on roofs it was so much fun 😂 Edit - I now googled, they are Bosmer if i understood correctly. And they are great in stealth. I was a great little thief and lockpicker lol and ofcourse i had a bow. God i miss this game so much. Take care Outlanders!
even today, 20 years after MW came out; this is the gold standard IMHO, for an "open world" CRPG. Get a few graphics modss to bring those into modern standards...and the game is ENTIRELY playable even today.
@@spatrk6634 There is a clear difference between an RPG, and an ARPG. Diablo, as the King of the genre, is a clear winner of a title. BUt is NOT, an RPG. MW, the entire ES serial, most clearly IS an RPG. Like the old Wizardry series from Sir-Tech, or the Gold Box from SSI was.
Wow, 8874 views to 537 likes is probably the best view to like ratio I've ever seen on any TH-cam video ever, and I've been on here since 2006. Good job ^^
yea, morrowind does not use level scaling as oblivion or skyrim. you will find areas of morrowind to be much more difficult because lots of enemies have set level. @@pelimies1818
In general you want to pick up "the lady" as your star sign. Because your hp roll is based on endurance you have atm.. The higher endurance you have the more hp you will receive with each lvl too. Ergo endurance is the skill which you want to max out the first to maximaze potential of your health. In your character selection. You want to have one main attribute as luck to get those bonus points. (basically saves you 10 lvls :P) Luck is super important skill which is responsible for everything in the game... There is one npc in the game who has 100 luck and he is almost impossible to kill/hit/do anything to even if rest of his skills are trash. Problem with luck is that it doesn't have responsible skill and you can't power lvl it ergo you can take only 1 point in luck per lvl. Apart of that. Make sure you always get double 5's + 1 luck at every lvl up :P Regarding enchanting. Biggest game changer item you will ever receive in this game is probably some kind of amulet which will regenerate fatique per second. Making you literally impossible to knock down/ Letting you run all the time and have 100% cast chance at all times. Having full fatique at all times makes game 10 times faster and unleashes full potential of character.
@@mistborndensetsu5015 well if you want to maximaze hp then take lady. If you want other long term bonuses in tradeoff for other stuff then it also works.
Hmm, lol. Am i the only one who actually tries to create builds and in-game restrictions to keep my character weak for as long as possible? The part where you have to puzzle your way out of every situation because simple tactics dont work is the most enjoyable part of Morrowind for me. Maybe I've just played it too much tho
yeah, i love how you have to be tricky sometimes. Once i encountered a beefy orc with a big armor that gave me a lot of trouble and i had to use burden on him to over encumber him and fried him with fire balls from a distance
There's 3 vaults in each great house building in vivec, find them and bring a high security skill, or opening magic. There's ebony armor, gold, jewels, deadric weapons and many other goodies. Taunt all the guards so you wont be hit with a massive bounty. Adventure on, neravarines.
I actually modded my vaults to be a bit deadlier... I kind of regret it, but it made me think outside the box for new spells I never thought I would need. My character is now a functional immortal when I wade into battle because of these vaults. Oh and rich as hell to boot.
Notably if you really want to maximize a character you actually want to not take any of the skills you want to use. I would not suggest doing this though, as it is a giant pain in the neck. What I suggest doing is taking the skills you will use most and making them your Minor Skills, and taking the skills you want to use, but will be using more sparingly and making them Major Skills. This will helm better optimize your character in the long run with Morrowind's system, but won't be as frustrating to play early, on or to level up. In fact I'd say it is a superior experience overall, as it will make you feel a bit week at first and a bit stronger later on, without the nonsense involved with the more optimized character creation method.
ye, you take something like combat spec with all major and minor skills being magic related and max endurance first you will get slowest start possible but be able to get to around level 78 which is max level you can get if you min max perfectly and dont waste any skill points on level ups thats why you dont want in major or minor skills anything you will constantly use and accidentaly level up but ofcourse thats not reccomended for new players. because they will get destroyed not knowing anything.
@Sack4ra thank you. You don't have to be a loser and increase three attributes by five points every level. Just increase what you get points for or pick two attributes and increase Luck.
long story short - use a weapon appropriate to your skill set and watch your fucking fatigue, when need persuasion spam 10 gold bribe, other than that be yourself.
Never, never, never make Alchemy a major or minor skill, you will use it so much you will level too quickly. Levelling too quickly isn't as detrimental in Morrowind as it was in Oblivion, thanks to unlimited skill purchasing, all you need is money after all, but should still be avoided by new players.
Leveling with non-combat skills too quickly doesn’t matter at all in Morrowind like it does in Oblivion. In Oblivion it can completely destroy your character’s effectiveness, in Morrowind it’s an inconvenience at worst.
@@steedless You need to have one skill in miscellaneous to be able to get the best levelling balance, from a quick glance your suggestion for major and minor only leaves conjuration in miscellaneous that is intelligence based, and that is far more important (Bound weapon and turn undead) in a combat situation, alchemy is no use in combat. It's easy to level up alchemy to a useable level by purchasing skill points from Ajira, who should become 100% friendly very early. Whilst overleveling isn't nearly as bad as it is in Oblivion, it's still best avoided, and any skill gains above ten per level are a waste. Maybe I micro-manage too much, but it's Bethesda games that brought me to that! LOL (Ediit) I realise now that you left Enchanting as a Misc skill, but that is so useless in an unmodded game it would be a waste of money buying any skill points unless there are no alternatives.
dont use enchanting as a skill even at 100 you dont have a consistent success rate for enchanting items. just get rich and eat the gold, its easy enough to get tbh
I never bother with security, I cant stand the lockpicking system in this game and always just cheese it with an unlock command. Id also like to add that picking acrobatics and athletics for either major or minor skills is pointless, as you will be constantly moving and jumping anyways, that is unless you are trying to level up as quickly as possible.
thats not for noobs to do. game will only be tedious to them. min maxing is for veteran players who already know how the game works and where all the stuff and trainers are.
Custom spell for ya'll: Wing cut - Levitate magnitde 1 for 1 second on target. This will make cliff racer's lose their ability to fly and will take fall damage or drown if they land in water; a 60 second version is good to make enemies doof around in the air while walking slow.

A guide thats not an hour long, bogged down by lore, or plays the game for you?
You're a legend.
If I had to recommend a guide for friends who wants to play Morrowind. I'll show them this.
Too many channels are making overly long video guides that feel like they're validating their expertise rather than actually being accessible for newcomers.

V helpful, thank u pal :)
That first 8 seconds monologue is probably the most accurate thing said about Morrowind.
This was really good! Found it helpful after starting a new playthrough after so many years 😃
Thank you for this video. No “steer away from x” or “use y for a good time.” Just generic useful tips for a new player wanting to experience daggerfall for the first time while steering away from too many details on any one point.
I'm playing Morrowind for the first time through OpenMW, so this is super helpful. I also enjoyed your Fallout vid. Quality content, keep it coming!
OpenMW is a solid choice, I was using it in the video as well.
@@steedless it's pretty great. Someone also made a build of openMW that gives you VR support, so I'm trying that out, too
hey dude, great video. i was a bit overwhelmed after starting morrowind for the first time bc i only know games that hold ur hand like crazy and u helped a lot in explaining the general stuff, thanks man
The algorithm said that I would like this....the algorithm was right
I love Morrowind's comeback recently
A true sign of a classic game is when it goes through random popularity spikes years later.
I think you mean that cliff racers scream like a BANSHEE.
A siren would sound alluring.
He's right I meant banshee.
For fast travel options I would recommend also installing the official Bethesda plug-in "Master Index".

If you spread out too thin and pick up magic skills for the sole purpose of using 1 or 2 spells from each school, you're never gonna level those skills up.
Not only that, but with enchanting you can cast spells with items that don't drain your mana. Alchemy and Enchant are extremely useful for any class.
I really like the tower in the early game as a sign.

Unarmored orc weilding a spear and with boots of blinding speed. OP
Can't wait to see what parts of this guide will still apply in skywind
Skywind will most likely end up being more sky than wind.
skywind is basically Morrowind in Skyrim Engine which means most of Morrowind mechanics wil be gone
Good video. Very helpful for new players, or even people just thinking about how to get back into the game.
Thank you Kind Sir I am a new player. I started the game a couple of days ago and was so lost I have over 1 thousand hours in skyrim so I wasnt used to the no handholding this game does but I dont want to give up The lore and story seems so cool!
Morrowind definitely has a learning curve for Skyrim players, but it gets easier the more you familiarize yourself with it. They are similar in many ways.
This isn't Spongebob re-hydrated, but good vid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
King now I know, I was wrong
I messed up, and now you're gone
This is fantastic.
Enjoyed the content and will help me on my own playthrough!
Glad you enjoyed it, have fun
Nice to see some one who knows what he's talking about. Good video dood!
Thanks
In the beginning, you forgot to mention the quest where you have to sit at the lighthouse and watch Fargoth and you get 300 gold if you don't turn it in, quickest way to get a decent amount of gold.
You can get 500 ;) Guess how?
@@Amonny go on
@@bradleymunson4669 Death of a taxman will give you 500-700 depending on the choices you make, plus a ring worth 240 if you decide not to return it to Thavere. Honestly, If you know your shit and are willing to steal some stuff, you can leave Seyda Neen with over 2500 Septims
Meh just kill a dark brother hood and sell his to the creeper. 3200 gold. And steal the orc armor in the same building as the creeper, another 3kish gold and no crime reported. Can be done at lvl 1.
@@finalcam1740 If you use the proper fix, the dark brotherhood won't appear.
Using the Frenzy Humanoid magical effect is a great way to get away with murder. Invisibility lets you avoid combat that is too hard to win at the moment.
Thank you for this. Your content is amazing
you n'wah
This is the end of you, swit.
Great content and video. Thanks
me watching after i just killed my second Dark Brotherhood assassin within an inch of my life:
If you report it to the guard in Mournhold then I think the attacks will stop
@@steedless like specifically mornhould?
Well i think im going to keep farming them in the elf lady's alchemy store
@@sethleoric2598 Yeah it's part of a questline to get to Mournhold which is where the Tribunal expansion takes place. You should see it in your quest log as "Dark Brotherhood Attacks" or something. And actually I think the attacks stop once you talk to Apelles Matius about it in Ebonheart. You don't have to finish the quest in Mournhold if I remember correctly. If I also remember correctly you can't farm the assassins infinitely as they stop spawning after a while on their own.
@@steedless Ah... nice
Great summary. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Alchemy and mercentile was useful in early game just buy motar and pestle,mix everything you take from house/ingredient sources and sold unnecessary potions to any local alchemists or traders
I keep being asked by people recently how to start Morrowind in 2020
This game has insane shelf life!
The lack of a new Elder Scrolls game for 9 years is definitely a contributing factor.
Great content. Subscribed.
Alchemy! Such a fun game!
Did you mention Wood elf? I loved wood elfs. They were so agile. When i lvld up enough i could poke guards in Balmora and tease jump around the roofs. Actually got so much agility i could jump from ground up on roofs it was so much fun 😂
Edit - I now googled, they are Bosmer if i understood correctly.
And they are great in stealth. I was a great little thief and lockpicker lol and ofcourse i had a bow.
God i miss this game so much. Take care Outlanders!
even today, 20 years after MW came out; this is the gold standard IMHO, for an "open world" CRPG. Get a few graphics modss to bring those into modern standards...and the game is ENTIRELY playable even today.
lots of people who never experienced old elder scrolls games cannot get into morrowind because its actual RPG game.
and not hack and slash
@@spatrk6634 There is a clear difference between an RPG, and an ARPG. Diablo, as the King of the genre, is a clear winner of a title. BUt is NOT, an RPG. MW, the entire ES serial, most clearly IS an RPG. Like the old Wizardry series from Sir-Tech, or the Gold Box from SSI was.
great advice!
Wow, 8874 views to 537 likes is probably the best view to like ratio I've ever seen on any TH-cam video ever, and I've been on here since 2006. Good job ^^
This actually helped me !..😃
Good ol' Al
"choosing more than one weapon can be redundant"
*Laughs in Morrowind's broken leveling system*
Nice video. 🙃☕❤❤
As a noob - getting finally to Balmora, after 50 death and reloads - did not want to leave the city, really.
balmora is so cosy
@@spatrk6634 Wandering towards Ghostfence at level 2 was not an encouraging experience.
yea, morrowind does not use level scaling as oblivion or skyrim.
you will find areas of morrowind to be much more difficult because lots of enemies have set level.

Nice
Nice
Steal the plate before you leave the office..
In general you want to pick up "the lady" as your star sign.
Because your hp roll is based on endurance you have atm..
The higher endurance you have the more hp you will receive with each lvl too.
Ergo endurance is the skill which you want to max out the first to maximaze potential of your health.
In your character selection.
You want to have one main attribute as luck to get those bonus points. (basically saves you 10 lvls :P)
Luck is super important skill which is responsible for everything in the game... There is one npc in the game who has 100 luck and he is almost impossible to kill/hit/do anything to even if rest of his skills are trash.
Problem with luck is that it doesn't have responsible skill and you can't power lvl it ergo you can take only 1 point in luck per lvl.
Apart of that.
Make sure you always get double 5's + 1 luck at every lvl up :P
Regarding enchanting.
Biggest game changer item you will ever receive in this game is probably some kind of amulet which will regenerate fatique per second.
Making you literally impossible to knock down/ Letting you run all the time and have 100% cast chance at all times.
Having full fatique at all times makes game 10 times faster and unleashes full potential of character.
I prefer the steed over the lady. Best way to speed up your progress without exploits.
@@mistborndensetsu5015 well if you want to maximaze hp then take lady.
If you want other long term bonuses in tradeoff for other stuff then it also works.
Thank Azura I picked the lady over the lord..
@Sack4ra boots of speed not per se, but most people do use an exploit to get rid of the blinding part.
....but what if I want to get violated by Daedra?
Or Fargoth?... 😆
Is it strange I play as a Breton but mainly use stealth archer tactics.
Hmm, lol. Am i the only one who actually tries to create builds and in-game restrictions to keep my character weak for as long as possible?
The part where you have to puzzle your way out of every situation because simple tactics dont work is the most enjoyable part of Morrowind for me. Maybe I've just played it too much tho
yeah, i love how you have to be tricky sometimes. Once i encountered a beefy orc with a big armor that gave me a lot of trouble and i had to use burden on him to over encumber him and fried him with fire balls from a distance
Like commented and subscriber #101! #RoadTo1K!
evade the cliffracers. that is all I can say
Multi-Mark is a great spell mod, it let's you cast 12 Marks and Recall to any of them.
{:o:O:}
i admit, i so hated morrowind, when i started it, but after completing main quest, i really want to play it again
ty
Holy shit youtube just dropped this on me
Out of nowhere, TH-cam decides to carpet bomb the video to people. If only I knew how it worked...
Super....
There's 3 vaults in each great house building in vivec, find them and bring a high security skill, or opening magic.
There's ebony armor, gold, jewels, deadric weapons and many other goodies. Taunt all the guards so you wont be hit with a massive bounty.
Adventure on, neravarines.
I actually modded my vaults to be a bit deadlier... I kind of regret it, but it made me think outside the box for new spells I never thought I would need. My character is now a functional immortal when I wade into battle because of these vaults.
Oh and rich as hell to boot.
Notably if you really want to maximize a character you actually want to not take any of the skills you want to use. I would not suggest doing this though, as it is a giant pain in the neck.
What I suggest doing is taking the skills you will use most and making them your Minor Skills, and taking the skills you want to use, but will be using more sparingly and making them Major Skills. This will helm better optimize your character in the long run with Morrowind's system, but won't be as frustrating to play early, on or to level up. In fact I'd say it is a superior experience overall, as it will make you feel a bit week at first and a bit stronger later on, without the nonsense involved with the more optimized character creation method.
ye, you take something like combat spec with all major and minor skills being magic related and max endurance first
you will get slowest start possible but be able to get to around level 78
which is max level you can get if you min max perfectly and dont waste any skill points on level ups
thats why you dont want in major or minor skills anything you will constantly use and accidentaly level up
but ofcourse thats not reccomended for new players. because they will get destroyed not knowing anything.
@Sack4ra thank you. You don't have to be a loser and increase three attributes by five points every level. Just increase what you get points for or pick two attributes and increase Luck.
How did you make your game look so good and not stretched in wide screen?
Certain mods/patches/tweaks can fix that, for example MGE XE. I was using OpenMW in the video though.
long story short - use a weapon appropriate to your skill set and watch your fucking fatigue, when need persuasion spam 10 gold bribe, other than that be yourself.
epic
Never, never, never make Alchemy a major or minor skill, you will use it so much you will level too quickly. Levelling too quickly isn't as detrimental in Morrowind as it was in Oblivion, thanks to unlimited skill purchasing, all you need is money after all, but should still be avoided by new players.
Leveling with non-combat skills too quickly doesn’t matter at all in Morrowind like it does in Oblivion. In Oblivion it can completely destroy your character’s effectiveness, in Morrowind it’s an inconvenience at worst.
@@steedless You need to have one skill in miscellaneous to be able to get the best levelling balance, from a quick glance your suggestion for major and minor only leaves conjuration in miscellaneous that is intelligence based, and that is far more important (Bound weapon and turn undead) in a combat situation, alchemy is no use in combat.
It's easy to level up alchemy to a useable level by purchasing skill points from Ajira, who should become 100% friendly very early.
Whilst overleveling isn't nearly as bad as it is in Oblivion, it's still best avoided, and any skill gains above ten per level are a waste.
Maybe I micro-manage too much, but it's Bethesda games that brought me to that! LOL
(Ediit) I realise now that you left Enchanting as a Misc skill, but that is so useless in an unmodded game it would be a waste of money buying any skill points unless there are no alternatives.
Thieves guild bribe ondres servants for his key costs like 300 but payout is 500 🙏
you little fetcher
dont use enchanting as a skill even at 100 you dont have a consistent success rate for enchanting items. just get rich and eat the gold, its easy enough to get tbh
The Enchant skill affects the use and recharging of enchanted items as well, not just making them.
Or just collect the ingredients for a load of luck potions, chuck them all down and enchant a bunch of items in one sitting.
I never bother with security, I cant stand the lockpicking system in this game and always just cheese it with an unlock command. Id also like to add that picking acrobatics and athletics for either major or minor skills is pointless, as you will be constantly moving and jumping anyways, that is unless you are trying to level up as quickly as possible.
"Picking skill X is pointless because Y"
To be fair you could successfully make that argument for just about every skill in the game.
100% wrong on skills. You want to pick skills that you don't intend on using at all as your major and minor skills.
If you want to min-max in the most unfun way possible, sure.
thats not for noobs to do.
game will only be tedious to them.
min maxing is for veteran players who already know how the game works and where all the stuff and trainers are.
Anyone else kill everyone in one of the towns to test your skills?
Imperial is the superior race, Cyrodil invicta
