    A better way to speed level pickpocket is to start the murder mystery quest in Windhelm and advance it until you have the mystery amulet. Then sell it to the killer, go behind him and pickpocket it. Then sell it back to him and repeat. You can do this an infinite amount of time, he will always buy it back from you for 500 gold. It's worth 1000 gold so it levels you super fast and you get a lot of money from it. Paralyze him or put a bucket on his head to keep him from catching you.

      You can also start the dark brotherhood quest line. The 3 bound victims are 100% pickpocket chance. You can plant and pickpocket huge amounts of gold on them. Fairly certain value determines XP.

      @@prisonerofthehighway1059 This is incorrect. Each of the 3 bound victims still has a chance to fail any pickpocket check (even if your pickpocket skill is 100 with all the perks). You cannot dump all your gold on them and pickpocket it without being detected. There's a chest in the shack you can temporarly stash all that gold and at most, you can plant approx. 200-300 gold and pickpocket it successfully, which yields far, far better xp than anything else I tried (including those enchanted iron daggers), but it can still fail. This method requires a ton of save-scumming, but it's actually faster than the Thieves' Guild resell method.

    If you want to level up Speech by selling stuff, remember:
    If you sell a stack of items, it'll only count as 1 item sold worth of Speech experience! So if you want to level it up faster/using less items, you MUST sell everything one by one, NOT in stacks.

    Glad I found you my friend … I’m a dad as well , however I’m a bit older than you .. both of my sons are grown and have left me far behind .. all I have left now of good memories , is Skyrim. We all loved this game however we never finished it . I mentioned to them that I missed them being at home and how we had so much fun with the game .. for Father’s Day , they bought me my very own Xbox with the anniversary edition of Skyrim. So I’m beginning again , but after watching some of your videos to see what I may have been missing , I have fallen in love with the game all over again. Gonna get started and head out of Helgen , following your instructions to max out everything , just as you have shown .. Please keep the vids coming and keep me moving in the right direction . Thank you as well for taking the time to do this for the older Skyrim lovers like me .. great job .

    Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but when you're selling items in bulk (potions from alchemy leveling for example) make sure to sell them one item at a time. If you sell multiple items at a time, only one of them counts for speech leveling. Great guide, thanks for the hard work!

    Aetherial Crown with Lover Stone helps heaps.
    When you are levelling up enchanting, try to get a helmet of Waterbreathing and Boots of Muffling before you reach level 20, disenchant those and enchant the gold rings you make when levelling Smithing with Waterbreathing. This way, you can have stronger enchantments if you wait until you have all the perks to disenchant things.
    The Muffle enchantment is just handy to have before it disappears from shop lists.
    Get a Poison Immunity amulet from Radiant Raiment before level 20, too.
    Also, to level up light and heavy armour and block, make heaps of vegetable soup, up to 90 (clone it if you have to), and then make sure you have plenty of potions and healing spells. Once you have those, go to a giant camp. Drink 30 soups, hold up your shield and let the giant have at you. When you need healing, back off and heal. As you level up your block effectiveness, you will need to back off less often. When the soup's effect wears off, drink 30 more. Levelling up your armour skills is more harrowing, but faster than just letting the guards have at you. DO NOT SWITCH DIFFICULTY TO LEGENDARY. The giant WILL yeet you to space if you do.

    I really recommend that if anyone is going for the max 252 level then for your last 5 levels of a skill go around the map and find the books… the last 5 levels are obviously the hardest to level up. Especially for something like lock picking or any of the magic skills mostly destruction. It also adds a little more variation and sometime a little more fun than just grinding out the last 5 levels

    Also, If I remember right, use the resto potion glitch to level up smiting fast too. Just use the resto potion to create a smithing potion. If you use the smithing potion, it should take you from level 20 to 100 if the potion is strong enough. Just create any armor or weapon, and use the grindstone or table to improve it, and it should work.

    While leveling sneak I don't recommend using a high damage dagger because it will finish the graybeards health faster and they will step back as they been hurt make you have to move again behind them but if you use a lower damage dagger like iron dagger they won't move and it still gives same amount of sneak xp. Up to legendary difficulty you can't deal enough damage to make them move and gain sneak xp in a faster pace.

    This is a great video, I like that you've thought about how one skill will speed up the next one e.g. doing alchemy so the potion selling will make speech faster, then taking the potions back so you can then buy every soul gem needed for enchanting etc. Also maxing lockpicking before doing Pickpocket is a good tip. I watched another video on Pickpocket that hadn't shown that and it was a hard trying to pick the door and chest lock with 1 lockpick kept breaking and having to reload 😅. So much easier with all the perks as you get a wax key (I should have thought of that perk doh!)

    24:42 weapon skills' experience is linked to base weapon damage (its damage at skill level 0). So for faster leveling it's better to use the best weapon you can get, and since you maxxed smithing and killed the first dragon you can make dragon weapons. Also there's Elemental Fury shout just near the Meridia shrine. Since you leveled up to 252 lvl in the end, you could get like 1250 lessons and don't bother as much with hitting a horse. For archery, Anga can give 6 free lessons, she lives to the South of Lakeview Manor in the mountains.
    And since you use restobug, you could level a lot of skills quicker, as others already mentioned: Smithing, Enchanting, Speech, Pickpocketing (if the enchantment isn't bugged without USSEP), armor skills (with maxxed defense and a million of health). You could enchant just 3 items to have zero mana cost for every school of magic.

    I'd argue that simply joining the companions and then paying them for training and abusing pickpocket save scumming to get your gold back is actually a faster/more effective way to level 1h, archery, and block to 75; and, 2h and heavy armor to 90 while also getting pickpocket to 100 multiple times. It also incorporates pickpocket into training the other skills and this is almost undoubtedly faster than horse training for the attack skills. You can use grelka in riften for light armor to 75 and then go straight to giants to finish armor, and go do horses after to finish weapons. You can make pickpocket legendary a few times over the course of this too, meaning you will need to do less telekinesis fast traveling later on.

      @jhomastefferson3693 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @mike-thegamingdad when I do a jack of all trades playthrough where I want to level and do everything, this is how I do it. And the levels from pickpocketing combined with levels from training tend to be enough to let you hit the next level until level 50 or so. Early on they will double level you. And after that point, it's a good time to start working on the crafting skills to get the rest of the way through a level so you can train again. Or, use muffle spam then, or soul trap spam on a corpse until you level up again, then go back to the trainer. I do the same thing with destruction training at the college.

      Thanks very much! When you get to combat in this video that is unfortunately a grind (definitely the longest bit), but if you are playing through anyway you'll be naturally levelling these.
      What I would advise you do though which I wish I'd remembered to include in the video. Make use of combat trainers. So if you have alchemy maxed you can make expensive potions and then sell those for a lot of gold. This then gives you money to buy training, which makes combat levelling way faster. The best trainers are:
      Archery - Nuirin (thieves guild)
      1 handed - Chief Burguk (leader of Dushnik Yal near Markarth)
      2 handed - Vilkas (companions)
      All of those are master trainers so will get you to level 90

    To level sneak faster, in the cave with the bear you can push your campanion against the wall and backstab him with a dagger repeatedly while crouched.
    As you level, put perks in backstab damage perks since the more damage you do, the faster sneak levels.

    For faster leveling of the combat skills, you can get the shadowmere mount from progressing the dark brotherhood questline and use "overpowered weapons" from the fortify restoration glitch, this is possible due to the high health pool of the mount. (The Quotations are there because if your weapons are too strong you will kill the horse). You can also fully upgrade speech from selling 1 super-potent potion from the fortify restoration potion.

    During the Helgen keep intro, you can sneak attack Ralof, or the other guy, until 100.
    Use double attack with daggers for fastest results. It will take about 5 minutes of whacking away to reach sneak 100.

    So to level alchemy faster you can focus on making fortify restoration spells and do the loop with fortify alchemy enchanted items. It's a loop that can be used to make very powerful potions quickly. You end the loop by making a fortify enchanting potion then use that potion to enchant an item with insane fortify alchemy. That loop alone will max out alchemy and enchanting then to level up speech you just need to sell a single insane potion. At that point you basically have infinite money with a bunch of level ups you can hold on to to pay for training. Just get the perk that lets you sell anything to any vendor. Pay for all the training you can get, then sell a single potion to get that money back, level up, then train 5 more levels.
    edit:
    I see that you used the resto loop later in the video. If you're going to use it I'd use it right away to max out alchemy, enchanting, smithing, and speech quickly. I get why you don't like it though, makes the game boring if you can one shot anything with a dagger.

    • @mike-thegamingdad
      @mike-thegamingdad  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks! Yeah my stance on it is probably odd I know, I'm comfortable using glitches like attack, save, reload to reset inventory, and also the Dawnstar chest. Yet not the resto glitch. Hypocritical I know. I think it comes from a few things, enjoyment is one as you have pointed out, save stability is another (pushing resto too high is a sure way of damaging a save), but the main that stands out is what I ultimately wanted my guides to be. I dunno if you have watched any of my builds but I wanted to present them as relatively quick solutions whereby a casual player can pick up and right from the start of the game (within say 5ish hours of set up), go and play a certain playstyle, on the hardest difficulties, and be able to manage it and have fun and get stuck into the game with all the content ahead of them. They are deliberately done so legendary difficulty is possible, but not broken enough that the hardest enemies (legendary dragons, dragon priests etc) won't give you a hard time and can still kill you. It was a bit of a balancing act. I also wanted to make the skills quick to level but to still feel like the player had achieved something by having to mini grind certain parts 😁

    the fastest way to lvl sneak 1h and 2h and (as well as bows to a lesser degree and possibly heavy armor) at the start of the game is to use the immortal farming method during the escape from helgan mission. just make sure you have a 1h 2h bow and shield and when you reach the cave with the bear after the frostbite spiders get your immortal companion into the stream facing the wall then sneak carefully behind him and keep sneak attacking him/shield bashing him until his bar gets to 10% then let it regenerate and repeat (it does not matter if you "down" him he gets back up but you may need to reset him facing the wall again).
    once your sneak hits 100 you can keep prestiging it until your 1h 2h (and possibly armor from shield bash) reaches 100 and you bow caps out at however many arrows you had.
    even if you don't want a stealth char this is a great way to get a few lvls and skill points as well as maxing melee wep's.

Bullseye in the Archery tree makes you worse at archery (paralyzed foes immune to damage), and Purity from the Alchemy tree inhibits your profit from mixing rare potions. Lots of useless perks as well (Tower of Strength doesn't even work, specific damage type perks and critical damage perks don't scale with tempering or enchants, etc.).

      Or anything without "where the caster points" description. So if the summon has you point somewhere to use, it will fail. If not, it will succeed regardless.
      There are exceptions however
      Such as Arvak, he has you point somewhere to summon but he will never fail.

    If you are using duplication, then duplicate iron ore. You'll get XP from transmuting it, and from smelting it that way.

    Enchanting muffle is typically faster for Enchanting but slows down smithing just a little.

    Fire enchanter augmented flames and aspect of terror all work together fire enchanter and augmented flames makes fire enchants stronger and augmented flames and aspect of terror increases the damage of fire spells. You can also get a fortify destruction potion which give temporary damage boost get enchant to 100 and you have a zero cast pyromancer build :)

    You can find that book the locked room one in the dwemer place you go to for the elder scroll if you unlock and loot all the rooms. It's either that place or the one when you go to the oculory. I can never remember but it is one of the major dwemer ruins that has that book in it. There are leveled chests to lock pick in there as well and the door to get in is locked. I believe there is a skeleton in there and then the book too.

    I don't know if this was mentioned already, but you only need to level up your magicka skills to 10 below the next level to get access to them. For example, at level 15, you already have access to the apprentice level spells. At level 40, you have access to the adept level spells (so you only need to get restoration and alteration to 40 instead of 50 to be able to buy telekinesis and turn greater undead). At level 65, you gain access to the expert level spells (great if you want to get paralysis, which can greatly help in leveling your combat skills). And at level 90, you're able to start the radiant quests at the college and have access to the master level spells (although personally, I think the master level spells are unnecessary).
    As for the combat skills, I found it easier, after you prep with the magicka skills and enchanting, to get a lone giant to keep attacking you to level up light and heavy armor as well as block. Then once those skills reach 100, you can switch to paralysis to paralyze it and attack with your weapons (one-handed will go extremely fast this way). Also increase the difficulty to legendary. Once the giant's health gets low enough, you can either cast the heal other spell or the grand healing spell to restore its health. Rinse and repeat! :)
    Great video, by the way. I was able to also learn a few tips I still didn't know about as well.

      I think it may have been mentioned yeah but it's no problem thank you for sharing 😁👍🏻
      And thanks for the tips about levelling combat as well! I completely forgot/neglected to use trainers in this as well which was a huge own goal as that makes it a lot faster, especially the companions trainers who are mostly expert and master level
      Thank you for watching 😁

    For lockpick, don't unlock the llocks ocks. Just break the lockpick.. also, for sneaking, you can use the horse to level it. if you don't want to advance the story to keep the dragons to not spawn.

    When maxing alchemy I like to use this trick but I use the plantation for more room to plant and extra money if you craft upgrades to the farm

  • @mckorr2116
    @mckorr2116 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Goldenhills Plantation, once you get it all upgraded, produces a lot of gold for you, and all you have to do is wait, then ask your steward for it. A few days can generate LOTS of money.

  • @williamriggs1854
    @williamriggs1854 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just used the giants to level armor and block. You can use smithing to improve the armor first so you take less damage and still level quickly

    A quicker way to do the gold bars is to take some from feindal before u have him pick them all up and drop them with the ones on the ground each time

  • @ozymandeusii1576

    You can level sneak to 100 without the restoration loop by repeatedly sneak attacking Rolof or Hadvar when they give you the bow near the bear when escaping helgan, if you stealth behind them and power attack til your stamina is drained but keep the button held down u will re ente stealth right before regaing enough stam for the next power attack meaning every attack gets the stealth bonus and thus levels super fast. If thats too hands on u can also just crouch walk into a wall near the bear but it will take much longer. Can also use them to level 1 and 2 handed and des magic but they take much longer than stealth

    You can level a lot of the weapon perks using the companions. For example Aela will level you higher than level 50 on the archery.

    • @mike-thegamingdad
      @mike-thegamingdad  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks yeah she can take you to level 75, and Nuirin the archer from in the Thieves Guild goes all the way 90. I completely forgot about the trainers when doing this 😫

    With lockpicking, just acquire 800+ lockpicks, Go and find any one high level lock, start the mini game up, and rig your controller to automatically attempt the lock, you can do so with some tape or just by holding the left analog stick down on a controller. It will take a couple of hours, and it's probably a good idea to have your controller charging [so it doesn't turn off] and then just go do something away from the game for a bit. It's probably quicker than going around settlements unlocking doors, and presuming it's a dungeon lock, you don't need to have a high or maxed stealth skill to not get collared by the guards.

    for blocking heavy armor and tweo handed you can exploit the companions just like fandeal to level up as and take your gold back from them once they become your follwoers
