Tbh, frostbite spell is harder to use due to how the majority of the NPCs in the game are nord and they have a 50% resistance to Frost.
Slows them down at least
@@CHEWYLOE only half as much as you'd "expect" tho
@@allenellisdewitt True
+ the undead are resisted it even more, not to mention dwarven structures are completely immune to any kind of frost magic
frost magic is super weak in general, nords, vampires, draugr, frost dragons and a lot of animals resist frost, plus there is a fuck ton of ones that are immune to it.
only things that fire is not good against are flame atronarchs and dunmer, not really much of an issue.
shock is the best destruction magic, only need to worry about storm atronarchs, which aren't an issue if you focus on the main quest as you usually never reach the level necessary for those to become common.
Local pyromaniac throws hands with both a overgrown lizard and god.
These are always golden, keep it up man
This would also work with Florida man instead of pyromaniac xD
Hello. a video appeared on my channel how I create a sword from SKYRIM with my own hands.

This is the best thing I’ve read all week
"HANS! GET ZE FLAMMENWERFER!"
"Sir I cant, Nerbit needed it."
This is great lol
Agreed
"sir,
I AM ZE FLAMMENWERFER"
UNDERSTANDABLE, COUNTINUE ON HANZ
Flamethrowmer.
The 4 naked people is a random encounter where vampires or bandits have killed those 4 and have taken their gear to impersonate them. The vampires usually kill vigilants and the bandits kill faction members. Usually the 4 imposters are in some bushes nearby changing until you surprise them
The funny thing with that scene is: the 4 vampires have stolen the vigils cloths, but... when you kill the vampires they only have the vigils cloths, and no set of their own. Meaning the vampires must have all been naked when they found the vigils XD
@@Snoogen11 they just travel light.
Also, can't vampires turn invisible in Skyrim+DB, or have I just played too much Sacrosanct/Bloodlines mod?
@@robbiirvine1038 I know some vampires turn invisible when low on health
@@Snoogen11 no they just ditched their own clothes
@@robbiirvine1038 ok, I looked into it. If you have the dawnguard dlc, vampire squads will use invisibility in two scenarios. Engaging an ambush, and running away when low on health
Sorry it's been so long since the last Skyrim run, I had a run with a wooden sword I recorded back in November but the footage corrupted, it kinda put me off playing for a while lol
Yello

All's good bro
@Nerbit you need to check out major slack attack
Hey, out of all curiosity are you planning to branch out into any new games, I like what you’re doing on your channel, but I really hope you don’t get stuck in only 5 different games.
I don't really care about the game or the challenge. I just really like your narration and sense of humor lol
That Orc really did meet the match he was looking for when that dragon stopped by.
"Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be _le-"_
Fighting a dragon seems like a pretty metal death, good for that old orc
now you must just hope malacath feels the same.
The Battle of Whiterun bug actually has a fairly simple fix: Don't fast-travel back to Windhelm, walk/run/ride on horseback for the return trip. For some reason, the actual quest completion is tied to the soundtrack, so you need to give the battle music time to finish.
could that be related to why my old skyrim save had battle music playing 24/7 and the last save was way too far back
I just finally got up to the most powerful I've ever been. Trying to complete everything and I was so close. Last 3 quests and mercer didn't drop the key or eyes so I'm in a loop of drowning to my death. Last save was way back
Something of note, the dragons deal Magicka damage and their breath weapons use MP so if you hit them with enough Lightning magic they can't use their breath weapon.
Your lying. You completely made that up, pulled it out your bum. Smh *face-palm*
@@jameswagoner1460 Search your feelings, you know this to be true.
Almost 2'000 hours, and I didn't know about this.
If you pelt them with ice spells they'll eventually become totally stationary in the air if you shoot them with the ice spike, pretty funny
Unfortunately not as useful as you would think. Much like stamina and power attacks only a bare minimum is needed as resources don’t have negative values and merely need to be regenerating. If your casting enough shock damage to impede spell casting odds are the raw damage is already near killing them.
Still lightning storm winds the award for best anti-air spell in the game.
I remember playing Skyrim as a kid this way because I thought Flames was one of the only destruction spells lmao

Can I give a tip about the Flames Spell? It's a bit late but instead of continually holding the Flames down use it in small bursts as the DOT is stacked on top of each other rather than one continuous stream.
I was gonna say the same thing. I love the flame spell. It does way more damage if you spray small bursts off and on repeatedly compared to a continuous stream.
@@jimmyphattits3700 yeah that's how i do it too. it also wastes less magicka.
"It just works" todd howard
I did this because I was saving mana, it seems my way of things is good in another way.
Stack this with slow time and it’s pretty damn good actually
Mitten Squad and Nerbit videos just 1 hour between each other? I smell a conspiracy :P

@@Nerbit13098 Confirmed and verified. What about Senza and Dante Ravioli? Also part of the Can you Beat hivemind? :P
@@Anistuffs nope this is too easy for them they will be like can you beat skyrim with out walking or can you beat skyrim with a power glove
@@robert23456789 Funny enough, ymfah did a no walking skyrim challenge.
@@MrFForger So... how the f are you supposed to do anything in the game without moving?
The guy in the thumbnail made me think it was a flamer only run for a bit
Not quite yet may get to it at some point assuming it wouldn't be too easy
Honestly, I would have switched to the Atronach stone for dragon fights. Yes it cuts down on your Magic’s regen, but dragon fire is classified as a spell affect, so the apprentice stone is making you weaker to it. But the Atronach stone would give you resistance and you’d lose the weakness.
I use Atronach stone for pretty much every character, it's one of the best. Steed and ritual are both pretty good too.
@@rustyjones7908 And with that Crown(?) that lets you use TWO different Stones, you become unbreakable.
@@Maniacman2030 oh yeah. I have to make a rule for myself not to use the crown, it's amazing fit everyone.
You could also call this "The best way to get rid of spiders in Skyrim and in real life."
KILL IT WITH FIRE! AHHHHHH!
Don't forget if your at low or zero magicka but have something like the novice hood that increases base magicka, you can unequip and then reequip the item to instantly refill your magicka by however much the item buffs. So novice hood buffing magicka by 50 points means taking it on and off (especially with hotkey bindings) gives you effectively infinite maficka for lower cost spells
When you say it out loud it makes it sound cheap...
Lol
Didn’t expect the Sonic Heroes reference, you’ve awoken some buried memories there
SOOONICC HEEEROOOOOOOOOSSSS

“Stealth is recommended” means that it’s time to bust out the old “no one can notice if there’s no one left to notice” strategy.
The delphine bug is really common, the best way to fix it is to use console commands to equip a torch in her hand, once she does that she will function normally.
Really? That's what causes her to take a shit? This buggy-ass game lol
@@rustyjones7908 Eh, not always, but it USUALLY works. If not then you're in for a rough time.
Also yeah the game is buggy and I love it so much.
A fix that works for me more often than not is, before entering the temple proper (yknow, where the giant face door is), is to pickpocket the torch out of her inventory.
Reminds me of playing Assassin's Creed II on PC: the entire game will stop during a specific cutscene early in the game, where Ezio is using the newly-repaired hidden blade for the first time...but the game's code doesn't know it's equipped, so you have to hit the "2" key to hotkey-equip it onto him for the cutscene to continue.
When Ulfic won't talk about the next part of the war, save, attack and reload. I'm pretty sure that fixes it. I did it once and it worked
Gotta wake him up from a parralel universe
In my recent magica playthrough, I discovered that the damage over time for the flame spell stacks for each cast, so spamming flames in many rapid bursts does way more damage for less magica, rather than holding it continuously.
I love the Hank Scorpio thumbnail. "If you want to kill somebody on your way out, I would really appreciate it!"
My favorite Simpsons Episode!
Also anyone else who has the Delphine not working in Alduin's wall area, you can add a torch to her left hand and then she unfreezes and the quest can resume. That's right, it softlocks because she doesn't have the torch to put in her hand to light the brazier. "It just works"

Con you beat skyrim as a whiterun guard? Can only use an Imperial sword, whiterun guard armor fur boots, and for the memes, can only heal with sweet rolls.
So this is the opposite of fallout? Because you DO want to set the world on fire instead of not wanting to, of course i have to mention my idea again cause it feels like tradition now.
What about an alphabet run meaning every time you kill someone you have to go in order of the alphabet, assault carbine, brush gun, combat knife. Etc etc just an idea I thought could be fun
Could even include the letter c being companion or f being fall damage if someone your fighting dies out of order you have to reload your save to before that person died no other rules really.
Could be fun :)
@@Nerbit13098 yay I shall stop spamming that suggestion now
@@helghastmajor3471 no never stop spamming

The camp at the beginning where you find the Black Robes has one of the easiest ways to get a bit of cash in the beginning.
One of the bandits will have a treasure map, and the treasure is across the river in a giant tree just ahead of Riverwood.
I'm curious if you've considered using the unofficial patches for all of the Bethesda games. It doesn't prevent all glitches, but it does help a lot.
unofficial patch isn't really worth it. It """fixes""" the dumbest shit. Like any method of accessing any vendor chest, wearing hoods and circlets/masks, the fortify restoration loop glitch... There's miniscule edits that don't matter and then just patching out a lot of unnecessary stuff because cheating/exploiting in a single player game is immoral.
@@CircusFoxxo I don't use mods or patches, and have never had any Bethesda games glitch on me
@@petercross1879 Then you haven't played New Vegas. It is fair to say that weird stuff happens but it's not the "lul saved by mods" bugfests that people say it is, aside from NV. There's a select few patches I use that make the games run a hell of a lot smoother with my dumb number of mods.
@@petercross1879 ...because I don't play Bethesda games.
@@petercross1879 That's an actual lie
This video may cause a flame war ;)
Nice
The only kind of war lol
Wasn't expecting a Sonic Heroes reference today, nice.
“Some people master Wayne just want to watch the world burn.”
Fun tip:
1) Unlock dual casting
2) Spam both mouse buttons at once with the flame spell
3) Profit
The burn effect lasts about 2 sec after the end of the flame spell. If you use the toggle spell very fast, the burn stacks. If you toggled it 8 times during those 2 seconds, the enemy will burn for 8x the "normal" amount. This is much better dps than simply holding down the spell, also consumes less magica.
Last time I played Skyrim, I finished the game as a sneaky mage. I first had in mind a stealth archer with a bound bow, but ended up using a custom flame aura spell - it "froze" a part of your mana, effectively reducing your maximum amount, but it worked permanently, dealing a little bit of damage in a small radius around my character. I just tweaked the radius a bit, and fun part - it didn't appear to affect my visibility unless I was currently casting it. So most of my fights were me sneaking around the site while everyone else burned to death. The fact my character stealthily glowed in the dark the whole time only added to the comedic effect. I think I used a conversion mod though, with major rebalances in skills and spells. Perkus maximus, was it? Quite recommend, only crashed my game when I tried to play as an arcane archer (i.e. the one with all kinds of magic arrows).
Tullius is an old man that isn't noted to be a physically powerful enemy.
Been on a Skyrim kick lately, watched all of your can you beat Skyrim videos and was wishing for more. Thank you sir!
Flames' superiority was never in doubt, just look at my boy Erandur
"I did manage to get the final hit though"
Meanwhile alduin is a protected NPC
I admit I've watched this video several times. I enjoy the funny and witty commentary during the challenge. Although I'm mostly a Skyrim junky, I have watched your Fallout videos as well. They put a smile on my face. Keep up the good work.

Had to get out of the peace council somehow
I just likes this guys voices
Thanks I've been told my voice is very different from a lot of people lol
Yes xD.
You should do only frostbite. It may do the extra stamina damage, but at least half of the enemies in the game, npcs included, are resistant to cold damage. It is skyrim, after all!
even if he was allowed to use all frost spells it would be a pain in the ass, some enemies are just immune to frost.
@@windhelmguard5295some enemies are immune to fire or shock too. One is flat out immune to magic ((from the only cure))
@@Skullhawk13 true, but the list of enemies which are immune to fire is extremely short and enemies that are immune to shock are extremely rare as it's, as far as I know, only the storm atronarch.
@@windhelmguard5295 I mean yeah, Frost is most common immunity in Skyrim, Shock is least common. I got anniversary edition tho so I got pay-to-win blast
He could have also grabbed the thalmor robes near the shrine of talos for a total of 24% destruction reduction.
As a Normand, the Bayeux tapestry joke was incredibly obscure but also hilarious.
3:55
Set a campfire for a man and he'll be warm for the night.
Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
Wisdom
The Fortify Destruction Potion would have increased the damage of Flames.
With the Breton race, the Lord Stone, and Agent of Mara from the non-combat quest you pick up at Mara's temple in Riften, you can get a permanent 65% resistance to all magic damage for very little investment. No perk points, no gear, no consumables, just a nearly two-thirds magic damage resistance that's with you at all times.
Missed that early thalmor robes for 15% less destruction cost but it didn't really matter huh haha
I'm surprised the rest of mitten squad hasn't found this guy yet. He's not even 100% a copycat,he brings his own twist to Bethesda game challenges.
Btw, the Atronach stone is much better than the Apprentice stone. Sure, the Magicka regen decrease sucks, but the 50 extra is a nice boon to somewhat offset this, also because it's percentage based so more magicka total = more magicka regen per second. But by FAR the best part of the stone is the magic absorb. It's SO powerful. You can completely absorb atronachs, dragon shouts, and lots of other things you wouldn't think would work. You can actually absorb your own summoned minions, which basically gives you infinite magicka because you usually absorb more than it takes to cast the spell.
Little known fact: the fire damage over time also increases a target's damage intake
Nice pfp
This is false. There is nothing in the code that supports this.
@@tadferd4340…fire is dealing damage…it’s a joke
@@Skullhawk13 There is a significant portion of the Skyrim player base that believes burning targets take more damage. There is also a significant portion that believes you can stack the burn damage.
Neither are true.
Holy crap I've been binging your videos for the past 3 days and your content is severely underrated. Keep it up man.
-All Bethesda games & New Vegas are held together with paperclips, chewed gum & masking tape.-
16:15 I experienced that exact same glitch yesterday. A look into a reddit forum said that it has to be nighttime for her to light the torches. So I reloaded a save from before first entering the temple and set the game to about 11 pm. Then I entered the temple. It worked. It's insane how after all this time it never got fixed.
Quick edit: I was playing on console so no console commands rip.
When I did a mage playthrough I essentially only used the flame and healing spells and was able to charge through and destroy everything without difficulty. Tougher enemies took longer but never really felt like much of a threat because you could heal while attacking and potions are very easy to come by. I had the same experience when I tried a melee build. The normal difficulty is so easy that you can run through most enemies with basically any build without hassle.
I almost spit out my cereal when you made the G Force joke.
I always do the civil war quest line to avoid the peace council, but also because you can’t become thane of Windhelm without finishing it as an imperial or taking Falkreath (iirc) as a Stormcloak. Also, if you want to buy Hjerim (along with the crime scene clean up service), that civil war progression is the service you have to do for the jarl before you can buy property in Windhelm. (Reasontosidewiththeimperials#35728: Solitude does not have mandatory military service as a requirement for buying a house.)
For flames, all you have to do is just hit em for like a split second, wait for the DOT to end, and then hit em again. It's the only way to really use the flame spell well
Nice video keep on fighting the good fight
Thanks man, the support means alot :)
Missed opportunity to say “embershard, more like ember charred”
Whenever i use magic, i’m more fond of conjuration. Specifically the bound weapons. Bound weapons are somewhat worse than their physical counterparts, mainly the bow, but if you’re a conjuration mage you can crack skulls with a magic battleaxe
An axe that scales with your melee skills making the spell pretty well worthless honestly.
@@demomanchaos this is true, but they’re also good for whenever you’re stuck in prison and feel like going on a murder spree. A very niche situation to use them in, but the option is there. Specifically for a challenge run to only use bound weapons, could you do it? Obviously you could, but it would be fun i think
Edit: to give a specific example of the whole “bounds weapons in prison” thing, they’re useful for one particular mission involving the forsworn in markarth, where you get thrown into the mine for life (or more accurately, till you escape). It is useful for when you have to kill a specific prisoner, or are just getting out.
Honestly i never really liked the conjurer weapons, i was like "if i wanted to use weapons i wouldn't be a mage goddamit"
@@Jynx9921 they do come standard with soul trap. If you ever need to fill soul gems you can do it that way, though the magic to do so and the shout are far better
I’m more interested in Fallout honestly but your commentary and fun challenges still make this enjoyable to watch good job nerbit :)
Edit: Stormcloak heroes assemble!
“Brother! Get the heavyflamer!” “What do you mean its gone?!”
Atleast the old orc got the worthy death he wanted
On the bright side, the world didn't look worse off by the end, which is surprising, with all the burning you did.
then again, you could put Tamriel in a microwave for an hour and the landscape wouldn't look any different.
No joke though, flames is op early game. After you dump a few points into destruction it's basically just a flat damage bonus to any weapon you use. I like speccing for it in my "Paladin" playthroughs.
Surprisingly, trees are actually very fire resistant irl, they do controlled burns near where i live almost monthly to kill the underbrush, but the trees are fine. I'm sure that Bethesda totally thought about all that
15:14 you can see dragon take off in top right of the screen.
Idea, can you beat Skyrim with a hired companion? If they die, you need to reload a save, and any “temporary” companions need to have their quest finished immediately.
Fuck yeah a new nerbit video
Hope you enjoy :)
Silent casting is not necessarily a bad idea.
I am not sure if the glitch is still there, but there is an illusion perk that gives extra damage to fire spells. Most likely because fire has a perk that gives them a fear effect, which ends up tagging them as illusion. It gives a flat bonus to fire, which is great for DOT like flames.
Taking illusion up to the fear perk also increases flames damage by 10 points, as it is considered a fear spell with it's associated destruction perk, in addition to the 50% bonus with augmented flames perk.
With this bug you can dual wield it for 54 damage per second. (base 8, +10 from illusion, then x 1.5 from augmented flames, and x2 for using both hands to case simultaneously) It just melts through most anything in the game quickly while letting you easily kite them about and is an extremely strong build, even without things like impact which just make it easymode on top of everything else.
hell yeah new skyrim challenge
Yeah sorry it's been so long lol
The bodies are a glitched random event if you side with the stormcloaks. There is meant to be imperials spawning there as an ambush, the glitch doesn't spawn the imperials. Skyrim has over 2000 random events, a good chunk of them are glitched out. I only know of this because I bought the guidebook which detailed them, seen other people talking about them back on Reddit, conclusion a good portion are glitched.
Just a heads up, dragons breath weapons count as magic for things that affect magical resistance, like the standing stone.
"As useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle" is one I've never heard. Ive heard "Tits on a bull", "Screen door on a submarine" and "One legged man in an ass-kicking contest" (plus a few i aught not repeat) but not ashtray on a motorcycle. I love it
Love how he called them the Legion in the tutorial
As someone with few hundred hours on this game and never once finished it, this video really tells me why. You'd think that during those 11 years the game's been out, all bugs would have been fixed already. Finally, I caved in and stopped being a vanilla gamer and installed some mods to fix these bugs and glitches... Maybe I'll finally be able to actually finish the game. All my playthroughs have been cut short by some bugs. Either I couldn't resolve them or I just completely lost my interest and quitted or started a new game... So shameful to leave all bug fixes to the modders.
Bethesda, their spaghetti code and ultimately? Laziness. "Oh well, the Modders will fix it."
@@Maniacman2030 It just works 🙌
I enjoyed the sonic hero rings in the corner
Hey nerbit you should play a fallout as a mimic, the prey you kill the prey you became
You can more than double the damage of the flames spell by leveling illusion and getting the Aspect of Terror perk. It's glitched and just adds 10 points of damage to all fire destruction spells
@Mario not sure, I never played mage much to notice
I’ve been killing that small bandit camp just outside Helges for years now for their map. Damn, like 10 years of killing those guys, good times.
Should be pretty easy; Fortify Restoration Looping, then some potions of Fortify Destruction that give +183673042% destruction damage, and walk through all enemies.
I thought he was gonna say ember charred instead but that was so mush funnier 😂
Before I watch this, yes it is possible. I beat the the main, mages college, dark brotherhood, dawnguard, and Dragonborn questlines only using flames because I didn’t know there were higher level spells
What sort of confused dunmer would ever fight for Ulfrich?
My character
There's a bunch of ways to make doing this way easier on yourself:
It looked like you weren't pulsing the Flames spell. To do that you just Case, Stop, Cast, Stop over and over. It stacks the DOT burning effect and makes the spell way more damaging.
There's also the glitch where the Illusion perk Aspect of Terror adds a flat +10 damage per cast to fire spells which makes Flames' damage pretty good.
Also Fortify Destruction potions with Alchemy, which is one of the few ways to boost Destruction spell damage.
And I almost forgot Necromage. Necromage actually breaks the DOT burning effect of fire spells against the undead making it last way longer than it should.
I would have recommended doing it with a high elf, not only are 50 extra magicka useful at any level for any build unless you go out of your way to not use magic but their highborn ability is arguably the single best racial skill in the game, with the only two that come close being the orc's berserker rage and the argonian histskin.
This is how I went through skyrim for my first play through because flame spray was the most consistent dps and it actually chews through everyone. Lol
Part 30, "can you beat fallout new Vegas with only this machine?" To include a party hat
The use of the set stage command is completely valid for the integrety of the run in my opininon. So many times I have been locked out of a quest line because a NPC wouldn't deliver their dialogue
Those ice trolls in Labarynthian decimated me and gave me a hell of a fight. I had to trick them and go into a place they couldn't hit. Yet your in and out. Rip me 😂
Honestly, the editing and proofreading for some 42k subs channel is amazing. After seeing some of your other videos, (even though you have taken some video formating concepts from other channels) this is still quite quality content. Take my subcribe and make some more stuff!
Really cool to hear a local accent on youtube! Subscribed, I'm sure you'll blow up sometime soon 😁
11:10 bro is that from sonic heroes? Damn it's been a minute since I thought of that game. Back in the days when the game cube was around
Damn a dark elf stormcloak 😭
I mean that how I always play
I know you prob didn’t wanna do it to be anti-fun but there is in fact a glitch where you can jump up and down in a blacksmith forge and it will increase your destruction. I have no idea why it works but it does.
Missed the opportunity for an “Ember-CHARRED Mine” pun.
