  • Skyrim released with an abundance of quests to do, places to visit and adventures to go on back in 2011. However, seven years later many players might finally be beginning to question if they’ve experienced pretty much all of what The Elder Scrolls 5 has to offer. Well there’s still reason to suspect Skyrim is keeping a few secrets. So today we’ll be taking a look at five more things you (probably) didn’t know you could do in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim.

    #5 also you can go tell Maven Black-Briar and she will tell that her and Sibbi "have a history" and that she will "deal with Sibbi", and tell you to go through with it. ( Sibbi Black-Briar dose not disappear/despawn ). Another thing that you can do is after you steal Frost you can tell Louis that you are *keeping the horse* and you can either threaten him or you can kill him

      @@shazzeler_hamlet it's a great game imo. I played it in 2018 so I'm not blinded by nostalgia. At first I got a little overwhelmed by it because of how different it was but I grew to love it. You can make graphics a little better with graphic extender mod. You should also download the code patch and patch all the bugs and all. The combat system isn't like skyrim or oblivion where every strike hits so you have to be careful at character creation. If you choose great sword as one of your main skills you should use a great sword because you literally can't hit anything with Amy other weapon. Give it time and don't rush the game.

    Something weird happened in my game with wolfskull cave. I was just casually sniping the draugr from the ledge, I tried killing the mages up top of the tower but couldn't hit them. I noticed some movement on the tower ( note I had not killed the head necromancer), a draugr attacked and killed them all somehow completing the quest. When I went up to the tower I heard fighting and I came upon a still alive mage with a deathlord just chillin together. The deathlord had not been killed and resurrected as it didn't turn to ash when I killed it. I found on top of the tower a dead draugr, the dead head necromancer and a few piles of ash. It seemed like one of the draugr just turned on them out of nowhere for whatever reason and the mage and deathlord bros took out said rogue draugr.

    I've got a question; could you make a video on the quest Delphine gives the Dragonborn that asks to kill Parthurnaax? I'm having issues; before I went and traveled to go defeat Alduin, Delphine gave me a quest and said I need to kill Parthurnaax because the Blades feel he deserves to die, I tried to go an attack Parthurnaax and kill him but he didn't die at all, he just kept flying upwards towards the sky than landing back onto the stone wall, it's like the game programmed him to stay there and not go anywhere else, I even spoke to him before attacking him and he seemed to agree with the Blades but he couldn't do anything about it. Another thing, I noticed that after I defeated Alduin and returned to Skyrim, the quest to kill Parthurnaax is completely gone, like it gets erased permanently. I also noticed that the Grey Beards of High Hrothgar are completely gone as well, which got me asking, "why and how".

    It may be kind of mundane by now, but I’ve never heard anyone mention it. On my first ever play through of Skyrim I wondered across Cisero transporting the Night Mother’s coffin and a wheel had broken on his little wagon beside a farm outside Whiterun. After some talk with Cisero and a little fetch talk with the farmer, you help repair his wagon and he’s on his way. At the time I had no clue who he was, and thought why he had such a unique voice? I still remember this random encounter years later because of how innocent, unique, and sinister it was. “Please won’t you help me?” Said the strange jester. “I’m just taking my mother to our new home. Please won’t you help us kind traveler?”
    Also a fun fact about Cisero, if resurrected with the spell “Undead Thrall” (highest level conjuration zombie spell) he has a few unique dialogues that I found funny. Most followers just moan or grunt when they die, Cisero says “Coming mother”

But you don't _need_ to use those light sources; player-made light works just as well. The novice-level alteration spell Candlelight makes the whole section _laughably_ easy.
