For this quest, you actually WANT to do Meridia's Beacon quest. Nearly every corpse in the shrine has leveled gold. And the final room has nearly 1500 gold on the corpses there.
I have to say: Joov is actually really clean with the Skyrim combat. Bashing power-attackers, crushing guards, and spacing out staggers, even in crowds.
I'm not great at showing it at times, but I am pretty competitive and want to play the game at a high level, at least when it comes to viewing each encounter in a vacuum. I might be using a stupid build or not using efficient equipment, but I still want to WIN
@@Joovhaha that’s your alternate account. You had to point it out because no one else noticed. Then u used your main account to bring attention to it. It’s cool dude. No one actually struggles playing this. Grandmas everywhere would absolutely dog you in Skyrim. Stealth archer baby.
31:50 hey joov! i know exactly whats going on here. you see, after you survived that kill animation, the NPCs all recognized you as the true alpha and refused to attack. this is a little-known easter egg, put in by the one true sigma, todd howard! (also, great video!)
I had an odd one once, against a whiterun guard after I pissed them all off (I was told to shout, but they didn't approve of me shouting at the jarl). He got me in a kill animation, since I was at Master difficulty, and took my head off. And then I stood there. Head was gone, I was forced into third person, but that was it, I could still move, fight, take damage. Don't know how it happened. I reset a quicksave after clipping it
Who care about some random farmer of no consequence to your playthrough? We help Cicero because he is the GOAT, the best Skyrim NPC to ever exist and anyone who disagrees with **factually** wrong.
Know what would be a fun challenge mod? Whenever you get a skill level up, rather then it going into the skill you were actually using to get that level up, the level up is instead given to any possible skill at random. It’d force you to adapt your play style based on whatever skill is actually getting the random level ups as you play
From what I can gather, that glitch you ran into was because you kept hopping in and out of the spells menu, basically you clicked at the exact right second to cause the death to occur before the menu, but since the menu force you back to your character you basically spawned in a millisecond later after your death as if nothing happened.
I think I had something similar happen years ago... And I mean in like 2011 or few years after that. I healed using a potion right when I got grabbed by a dragon and then got flung away, and then the game didn't know what it was supposed to do because my health wasn't zero but it SHOULD have been. Not sure if it just soft locked and I had to reload or if it eventually stopped the ragdolling and let the character get up. Sort of similar because it did go through with the animation for dying from the attack and didn't skip it perfectly like in this video
In this episode Joov: Pays to win Lends a helping hand to a psychotic serial killer Eats a girl's BF in front of her Fights of smilodons with 0 hp TOUCHES THE BEACON Demonstrates Skyrim's finest pick up techniques
im sure someone's mentioned it, but with saadia, if you lure her to kematu and kill him before he paralyses her, you can get the 500 gold, a lot of gems and saadia's reward, plus some unique dialogue!
The cool thing about that is you can keep her in good disposition too. She is a little annoyed at the strategy you used but still grateful that you took her side
Pickpocketing is so underated in this game. Being able to throw a guards entire outfit and arsenal on the ground Infront of him without the dude noticing is a huge powerplay. Not to mention the extra 100 carrying capacity sheesh
When it comes to stealth missions, no companion sells faster than Farkas. I swear his shoulders are so big that the enemies can see them through walls and shit
Fun fact: Helping Cicero with Valerius actually is a good deed. If you don't do it by the time you meet him in the Dark Brotherhood quest line, the quest becomes unavailable, and he wipes out the entire family off-screen.
7:48 throwback to the first time i watched this video, it being the first videos of Joov’s i’d ever seen and thought this was genuine and not a bit 🤣 i was so confused 😭
16:30 I had to watch this back a couple times, the dude with the shield kills two of his allies before Farkas even starts attacking. He's supposed to be attacking, but his first one triggered a spinning power attack which one shot the orc, then because they're all out of place he triggers the backstab animation on another. 11/10 work Bethesda.
A fun thing if you ever do this kind of challenge again, in dragon's bridge there is a quest to find a lady who got lost in the river. (I think its dragon's bridge, its around there.) and if you complete it, you find a boat with lots of flawless gems including a flawless diamond (Or a couple) which is worth a ton, and I mean a ton of gold. I think the gems overall are worth like 10-40k.
I bought Anniversary back during the beginning of last summers sale, and ever since, I've seen giants riding dragons like every other day and it never gets old. It's almost always right outside Tundra Homestead
3:00 heres a bit of a tip, home owners and store owners only follow you IF they know where you are so if you can find an alternate entrance into the building away from where the owners usually hangout then you can steal all you want as long as they dont see or hear you so for example the 2 story houses usually their balconies have stairs so enter via the balcony and you can steal freely
Do you come up with all of the challenges yourself? This is super creative. I'm glad I subscribed to you way back when, your videos have steadily gotten better. It's ALWAYS a treat. I don't even like fallout content normally but I like all of your videos, even the fallout ones :D
I try to come up with my own as best as possible but I do take a lot of suggestions from people on my Discord server, and usually I try to make any tweaks that I can that I think will make things more fun, challenging, or timely. This was one of those that was suggested and I really enjoyed the idea. I'm learning how to change things on my own when I have time, but I also have a few friends that are extremely talented at building goofy utilities like the "Press a button to lose 10% of your gold" plugin we used here.
@@JoovTry to beat skyrim se as the investor. Basically, you don't fight. But you buy your follower top tier gear, upgrade it to legendary, etc. and they fight for you. You can install honed metal to get blacksmiths to upgrade and craft for you

@@Joov Ooh, and maybe you can do another playthrough with the mod ''realestate'' and ''skyrim stock exchange'' to buy every single purchasable property in skyrim. That'd a cool one too
These games catch a lot of heat for avoiding traditional RPG mechanics and while I would love to see more of that stuff in TES6 - the beauty of them comes from how you roleplay alongside the world. Certain dialogue will be funnier if you're pretending to be a chef, or a hunter, or just a straight up killer. Some encounters will be passable, or unavoidable depending on how you're playing. If I want to go through my thief arc, then the Revelers on the road have a different meaning to me in that moment than they will in the future. It's kind of it's own thing and it's honestly really hard to describe in a few sentences.
@@Joov I think your ability to immersive yourself in the games you play has allowed you to be both so creative and technical in your videos. The quality of your content you produce through your gameplay and commentary makes me feel like I'm experiencing the game for a whole new time and in completely fun and different ways. Gained a new sub from a person who just discovered you today! Never change Joov, I think you got a winning formula, now I have a whole catalogue of yours to go through :)
I really love how Alpha Male and Sigma Male has become a thing to just meme on But at the same time, Joov proves himself to be a true Sigma by putting himself through all these challenges Alpha Chads be malding
this challenge puts a big red circle with an arrow pointing towards it on why i love meridia's quest so much the amount of loaded dead people in there is insane, i swear it's like 2000 free gold from the bodies alone
Joov. I watched these on the VOD channel and tried the challenge myself before you posted this vid. I followed same rules + expert and survival. I mimicked marrying ysolda and buying breeze home to stay true to your challenge however I chose to do the dark brother hood quest line. I got 25 points with a time of 7:37:42. It could have been done quicker höher died a few times doing long travels. Appreciate the video and the idea. You’re the best Skyrim TH-camr out there!
For sure: My science fair back in 2004 or whatever was testing the volume of gasses produced of various chemical reactions to show the potential dangers of household chemicals and I lost to another kid in my class who stuck the cut stems of white flowers into food coloring to dye the pedals different colors. I am still pissed that an art project won a science fair.
30:00 I transformed into a wearwolf while being mounted on a horse and was permanently locked into "horse 3rd person" while my actual body ran around 😂
I think a skyrim vid where you get as many people to attend your wedding as possible would be funny, though I’m not sure how you’d turn that into a whole video
I loved the Sigma Male/Finance Bro Podcast meme throughout the challenge. I just wasn't prepared for the stellar execution. Even the character's face is terrifyingly accurate.
Okay, as a game programmer, let me shed some light on what I think has happened with your body and all that at 31:50. Basically, when you "died" your body got ragdolled. While in first person, your body still exists, but it flips a value and makes it inactive, but still existing (Hence also why first person ragdolling doesn't happen in Skyrim, only getting up from ragdolled position which is an animation). So while the body is inactive, it is still recognized as the position of the players "physical body", but the AI will move to attack at your "player position". To attack, it checks if it is within distance of your "physical body" as it has the hitbox, but it moves to where the player entity is (The entity itself contains the body and more, for instance) This is why, I am guessing, they were able to attack you while you were in third-person as the body becomes active and becomes the "player position" of the entity. This is just guesswork based on this video and I haven't actually checked Skyrim code for how it treats the body and the player. tl;dr hitbox is attached to the body, but AI attempts to move to player position. While in first person, player position is equal to camera position. While in third person, player position is equal to body position. Bug is that hitbox is still attached to body, but body don't "exist" while in first person, but player position still does. AI doesn't attack because it is out of range from hitbox. I do hope this helped and that you will see it, Joov!
Interestingly I would argue ESO is certainly pay to have any kind of cool looking clothes it doesn't have anything that provides a mechanical advantage to anyone else in the shop
@@hazeltree7738 bro 2 of the 3 are some of the worst ones and the third is middle of the road granted they have great ascetics but not a mechanical advantage
We talked about that a few times actually! It was suggested a lot and I like the idea but it would be a pretty intense grind. In the future, I think I'd like to take that rule into account but I have to actually donate cash to charity if I want to pay immediately for power
@Joov so question; did you do "The Horn of Jurgen Windcall" because the room at the end is overflowing with individual coins. And if not then take this as a note for any attempt in the future.
30:48 it also has an animation for the body of the player to play before ragdolling, you can see the animation break when he exits the fav menu and heals, the arm did the wrong animation. There’s more but for some reason the typing is lagging.
I've only just found your channel 4 days ago and I love the videos and all the different ways I never thought about playing these games, keep it up and heres to looking forward to seeing you hit 300k you've earned my sub.
This video gave me the best kind of brainrot, before I even knew the term. Ever since seeing this when it came out 10 months ago, I have found myself regularly saying “Passive Income” even in situations where it only kind of makes sense, and I know none of the people I say it to know what the fuck I am talking about, but it gives me dopamine and I chuckle on the inside. It doesn’t even have to be monetary; I have said “Passive Experience Income” in gaming-related fora and I feel only a modicum of shame.
You don't need to replace shop keepers with your spouse. You just need to move them into your home, and they'll "open a shop" without having a building or stall for it.
@@suzysuzuki8865 The sigma grindset doesn't include working for someone else, it's about passive income Getting a shit load of gems from every box you open is more sigma
For the past decade, at least once a year I redownload Skyrim excited to try a new build or something. Literally 30 seconds in, and I am back to stealth archer, with just a small twist. Every single time. And you know what, i love it and will be doing it for the rest of my life probably. Damn you Todd.
It would've been better if it had a Wizard 101 pay to play/win system, like you finish the intro sequences, get inside Whiterun, thinks "Wow this game is great, I am so excited to explore dungeons and cities!" then your character goes to the nearest dungeon and realize that he forgot to pay a DUNGEON CHEST KEY, meaning he cannot open any of the chests. And once he come back to Blancherive, he has to pay 300 gold per week or 4000 gold immediately to enter the shop to buy the DUNGEON CHEST KEY for 1000 gold. But here's the catch, there's also DUNGEON MASTER CHEST KEY and ULTIMATE DUNGEON CHEST KEY with also ULTIMATE DUNGEON MASTER CHEST KEY for higher leveled players. You can also buy a subscription for 2500 gold per week in order to access the entire game and the chests, but here's the catch, new zones aren't included, meaning everything you explore after paying won't be accessible until you pay.
tbh the ruleset lacks refinement: I would say that as a high value man, any fine garments and jeweleryshould also be lootable. besides the fact that posing with a gold bar on instagram gets you rich fast, so those and silver ingots should be allowed. finally, I believe there is a point to be made about skooma that the closeminded authorities living inside the matrix simply wouldn't get.
Completely leaving Bleak Falls to sleep in Riverwood wasn't the solution I expected since it's a dungeon that has bedrolls right in the very first room.
The weird Schroedinger's dovahkiin phenomenon during the mammoth tusk bit was the trippiest and most genuinely unsettling thing I've ever seen Skyrim do
Hey Joov, indie dev here. Your third person body is essentially a puppet NPC that you switch to when you're in third person, same reason why multiplayer mods exist for Skyrim and other solo Bethesda titles. The NPCs switch focus because when you toggle camera perspective it activates a toggle that makes the puppet the focal point instead of the first person player object, however "you" are always that player object. In this case, somehow, you managed to get the third person voodoo doll killed without triggering the death state. Whatever circumstance lead to that must have also skipped the death state trigger as well. Very interesting bug catch for a little behind the scenes on how games are made!
No cause the intro is so relatable. My cell project from school was made out of actual trash 💀 two small cardboard taco shell boxes glued together, painted blue. I'll never forget that project. Never.
I've played, (and beat) skyrim atleast 100 times, and I NEVER knew there was a 3rd chest in the shout room for bleak falls barrow, something new everyday
@Joov if you try this challenge again (and i think you should), you can be an Imperial who naturally find more gold. a second tip is using “scum saving” to take on more than one thieves guild quest. you can take three in one city and make 300 coin instead all while looting purses and gems.
Fun fact: both kematu and saadia lied! Saadia claims she "refused to sell out to the thalmor" and is on the run from them, but she fled one of the only nations that beat and drove out the thalmor to hide in a thalmor-occupied province. Keematu says saadia won't be killed and is going to be returned to hammerfell for a fair trial for feeding secrets to the thalmor, but after siding with him, she gets a coffin/urn with her stuff in it in the hall of the dead.
Recently found Joov's channel and I have to say, I love that he doesn't just do stealth archer kajhiit like every other Skyrim creator. Makes everything more interesting
also if you have USSEP installed you will discover that for whatever reason Arthmoor decided that Ysolda takes over Belethor's and Mikael takes over Hulda's. It's dumb.
Seriously missing out on an opportunity if you don't clip the giant riding a dragon into a YT short. In fact, Lucia sliding into existence to ask for money and the curious case of the dead man walking are great Shorts opportunities as well.
I love your dedication and immersion in your challenges! I didn’t know I’d be learning so much about economics, passive income, taxes, how to get married, and how to be a Sigma. Thanks for these life lessons!

Actually laughed out loud at that, amazing line.
I think a skyrim vid where you get as many people to attend your wedding as possible would be funny, though I’m not sure how you’d turn that into a whole video
31:40 you're in a quantum superposition, both alive and dead, standing in front of them and laying dead clipped into the door
I have my notifications on for 2 youtubers, Jabo and Joov, the brothers from another mother.
I think when we finally meet each other some cosmic explosion may occur
@@Joovthe cosmos will explode once you can confirm for yourself in person that british people actually exist when you meet him.
Jabo uploaded today? I don't see it😢
Jaboov
@@bingusenjoyer197I can confirm that they exist as I’m English
I loved the Sigma Male/Finance Bro Podcast meme throughout the challenge. I just wasn't prepared for the stellar execution. Even the character's face is terrifyingly accurate.
Okay, as a game programmer, let me shed some light on what I think has happened with your body and all that at 31:50.
Basically, when you "died" your body got ragdolled. While in first person, your body still exists, but it flips a value and makes it inactive, but still existing (Hence also why first person ragdolling doesn't happen in Skyrim, only getting up from ragdolled position which is an animation).
So while the body is inactive, it is still recognized as the position of the players "physical body", but the AI will move to attack at your "player position". To attack, it checks if it is within distance of your "physical body" as it has the hitbox, but it moves to where the player entity is (The entity itself contains the body and more, for instance)
This is why, I am guessing, they were able to attack you while you were in third-person as the body becomes active and becomes the "player position" of the entity.
This is just guesswork based on this video and I haven't actually checked Skyrim code for how it treats the body and the player.
tl;dr
hitbox is attached to the body, but AI attempts to move to player position. While in first person, player position is equal to camera position. While in third person, player position is equal to body position.
Bug is that hitbox is still attached to body, but body don't "exist" while in first person, but player position still does. AI doesn't attack because it is out of range from hitbox.
I do hope this helped and that you will see it, Joov!
SKYRIM BUT ITS PAY TO WIN! “Welcome to elder scrolls online-
Interestingly I would argue ESO is certainly pay to have any kind of cool looking clothes it doesn't have anything that provides a mechanical advantage to anyone else in the shop
@@lillycline1414What about the buyable classes?
@@hazeltree7738 bro 2 of the 3 are some of the worst ones and the third is middle of the road granted they have great ascetics but not a mechanical advantage
"are you prepared to die?"
-they think I'm dead
Why not have it so you can only skill up with teachers?
We talked about that a few times actually! It was suggested a lot and I like the idea but it would be a pretty intense grind. In the future, I think I'd like to take that rule into account but I have to actually donate cash to charity if I want to pay immediately for power
Unless there's another way to gain levels, there would be a level cap as you could only gain 5 skills per level. The cap isn't even very high.
@Joov so question; did you do "The Horn of Jurgen Windcall" because the room at the end is overflowing with individual coins.
And if not then take this as a note for any attempt in the future.
@@MortimerADuke mods can fix that at least
@@Joov1$to charity for a loot box
30:48 it also has an animation for the body of the player to play before ragdolling, you can see the animation break when he exits the fav menu and heals, the arm did the wrong animation. There’s more but for some reason the typing is lagging.
I've only just found your channel 4 days ago and I love the videos and all the different ways I never thought about playing these games, keep it up and heres to looking forward to seeing you hit 300k you've earned my sub.
Love when Joov finally learned what Passive meant
3:56 did the editor muffle his voice when they basket go over his head?! Thats detail...
This video gave me the best kind of brainrot, before I even knew the term.
Ever since seeing this when it came out 10 months ago, I have found myself regularly saying “Passive Income” even in situations where it only kind of makes sense, and I know none of the people I say it to know what the fuck I am talking about, but it gives me dopamine and I chuckle on the inside.
It doesn’t even have to be monetary; I have said “Passive Experience Income” in gaming-related fora and I feel only a modicum of shame.
"You don't need healing! What you do need are good marks like Dragons, good side gigs to keep your finances afloat... and a healing spell."
Lol
You don't need to replace shop keepers with your spouse. You just need to move them into your home, and they'll "open a shop" without having a building or stall for it.
you should had put this video as a members only so people had to pay to see it
"I'm just going to take this bag of coins into this other room. And totally not steal it." An underpaid Dragonborn.
"You can't stop the sigma grindset!" Literally headbutt a werewolf to death.
Dude, the constant, scarily accurate grindset lingo is so damn triggering. I love it.
I feel like collecting the Crown of Barenziah could've been a great way of trivializing this, but then again thats not enough suffering
What about all the money you get at the end of the dark brotherhood quest line lol
@@suzysuzuki8865 The sigma grindset doesn't include working for someone else, it's about passive income
Getting a shit load of gems from every box you open is more sigma
This channel is positively binge worthy! I'm so glad the algorithm recommended this to me!
33:55 Watching you charge up to the boss in werewolf form, STOP, and THEN power attack caused me psychic damage.
For the past decade, at least once a year I redownload Skyrim excited to try a new build or something. Literally 30 seconds in, and I am back to stealth archer, with just a small twist. Every single time. And you know what, i love it and will be doing it for the rest of my life probably. Damn you Todd.
Making fun of those moneybro/grindset people is ALWAYS appreciated and loved
Andrew tate after learning gay people don't care about what he says :😭😭😢😢😢😿😿😭😭
It would've been better if it had a Wizard 101 pay to play/win system, like you finish the intro sequences, get inside Whiterun, thinks "Wow this game is great, I am so excited to explore dungeons and cities!" then your character goes to the nearest dungeon and realize that he forgot to pay a DUNGEON CHEST KEY, meaning he cannot open any of the chests. And once he come back to Blancherive, he has to pay 300 gold per week or 4000 gold immediately to enter the shop to buy the DUNGEON CHEST KEY for 1000 gold. But here's the catch, there's also DUNGEON MASTER CHEST KEY and ULTIMATE DUNGEON CHEST KEY with also ULTIMATE DUNGEON MASTER CHEST KEY for higher leveled players.
You can also buy a subscription for 2500 gold per week in order to access the entire game and the chests, but here's the catch, new zones aren't included, meaning everything you explore after paying won't be accessible until you pay.
tbh the ruleset lacks refinement: I would say that as a high value man, any fine garments and jeweleryshould also be lootable. besides the fact that posing with a gold bar on instagram gets you rich fast, so those and silver ingots should be allowed. finally, I believe there is a point to be made about skooma that the closeminded authorities living inside the matrix simply wouldn't get.
Completely leaving Bleak Falls to sleep in Riverwood wasn't the solution I expected since it's a dungeon that has bedrolls right in the very first room.
Finally.
Skyrim as Todd always envisioned.
The weird Schroedinger's dovahkiin phenomenon during the mammoth tusk bit was the trippiest and most genuinely unsettling thing I've ever seen Skyrim do
joovs impression of a podcast sigma male is scarily accurate
So real. The bit just kept on giving, too
Hey Joov, indie dev here. Your third person body is essentially a puppet NPC that you switch to when you're in third person, same reason why multiplayer mods exist for Skyrim and other solo Bethesda titles.
The NPCs switch focus because when you toggle camera perspective it activates a toggle that makes the puppet the focal point instead of the first person player object, however "you" are always that player object. In this case, somehow, you managed to get the third person voodoo doll killed without triggering the death state. Whatever circumstance lead to that must have also skipped the death state trigger as well.
Very interesting bug catch for a little behind the scenes on how games are made!
The alpha male and sigma male jokes were the best thing by far LMAO
realizing that brynjolf would absolutely be a youtube grifter in real life has made me unfathomably upset
Bugs? Nah. "It just works." Also that ending was perfect 😂
No cause the intro is so relatable. My cell project from school was made out of actual trash 💀 two small cardboard taco shell boxes glued together, painted blue. I'll never forget that project. Never.
I’m dying 💀
Lucia: Mister can you spare a coin?
Joov: Absolutely not!
Todd watching this: “is….is this what they want?” 😂😂
the companions had one conversation with the sigma male and immediately sent him to die
I love how he could've married Uthgerd or many other people earlier for passive income but just chose not to
I've played, (and beat) skyrim atleast 100 times, and I NEVER knew there was a 3rd chest in the shout room for bleak falls barrow, something new everyday
Me too. Same goes with the quest where you shoot the mead bottles and you get a free 5 archery levels, I have never run across it
"Mm-mister... could you spare a coin? "😢
🏃♂️ "Absolutely not"
@Joov if you try this challenge again (and i think you should), you can be an Imperial who naturally find more gold.
a second tip is using “scum saving” to take on more than one thieves guild quest. you can take three in one city and make 300 coin instead all while looting purses and gems.
I can tell you're a true understander of the grindset with how familiar you are with the core concepts of it. You ain't fooling me, scoundrel
Holy shit the Sims 2 soundtrack at the wedding made me feel nostalgic
Watching a Joov video is basically just me waiting for the moment when sheer chaos ensues and then he dies.
I can’t tell you how excited I get when I see you post! Your videos are funny as hell and creative! Keep up the amazing videos!
Fun fact: both kematu and saadia lied!
Saadia claims she "refused to sell out to the thalmor" and is on the run from them, but she fled one of the only nations that beat and drove out the thalmor to hide in a thalmor-occupied province.
Keematu says saadia won't be killed and is going to be returned to hammerfell for a fair trial for feeding secrets to the thalmor, but after siding with him, she gets a coffin/urn with her stuff in it in the hall of the dead.

Recently found Joov's channel and I have to say, I love that he doesn't just do stealth archer kajhiit like every other Skyrim creator. Makes everything more interesting
I swear this man makes my day by wanting to switch from starfield to go back to skyrim.
also if you have USSEP installed you will discover that for whatever reason Arthmoor decided that Ysolda takes over Belethor's and Mikael takes over Hulda's. It's dumb.
Seriously missing out on an opportunity if you don't clip the giant riding a dragon into a YT short.
In fact, Lucia sliding into existence to ask for money and the curious case of the dead man walking are great Shorts opportunities as well.

Joov: "What the Hell was that"
whiterun Gard: "what's that" 😂
That guard and Joov both witnessed a paranormal event.
I love your dedication and immersion in your challenges! I didn’t know I’d be learning so much about economics, passive income, taxes, how to get married, and how to be a Sigma. Thanks for these life lessons!
This is the new intended Skyrim experience lol
How to make passive income for the rest of your life:
Step 1: Find a hard working spouse.
Step 2: Profit.
I was so poor that we could only afford jello and mini marshmallows for my cell project, I at least had a lunch that day 😅
The only thing I learned with this is that the Sigma Form is a big wolf fursuit.
Furies are all suspiciously wealthy.
