This is absolutely true. People always say Morrowind is way too easy to break, and the simple truth is that it is but for a reason. Morrowind is unforgiving. Not in a cheap death kind of way (though there are plenty of of those) but in that if you do not use everything at your disposal, the game will happily chew you up and spit you out. At the same time, the game also gives you all the tools you need to fight back. Take the Dwemer Puzzle Box quest. I think we all remember a certain bridge leading to the ruin guarded by a certain Imperial. Even with solid stats and skills and equivalent weapon and armor, Snowy can be quite a handful. A first time player is going to get his ass handed to him (especially going in blind) unless he uses healing potions. Most people would think to only use one at a time, but quickly realize he hits harder (and faster) than a single potion heals. What do you do? Maybe you run off and lick your wounds, reloading an old save and coming back later. Or maybe you try to drink a second one in desperation. What happens? The healing stacks. I'm sure some would even think this is a dastardly exploit, but many encounters after this will prove it to be necessary. I would argue Morrowind not only expects you to try this but is almost certainly designed to make use of this and many other methods. It tantalizes you with possibilities. Potions getting stronger every level makes you wonder what effects it, and so you happily experiment with fortifying your intellect. The costs on overpowered looking spells and enchantments aren't there to gatekeep you, they're there to gatekeep anyone who isn't willing to go for them. Traveling across the continent is only 80 or so coins if you want to take boats and striders, or 3 or 4 Windwalk or Wind Form scrolls away and if you're feeling extra extravagant that day. For God sakes, the continent is populated by living gods and wizards with clone daughter harems, you have no excuse.
@@TallicaMan1986 folks thought I was joking when I said you can do DBZ style destruction magic in Morrowind and use it on whole cities which ends all NPCs hit by it in an instant...

Daggerfall: 1) Take the Magic absorption advantage at character creation. 2) Create a fireball spell with a radius of 20. 3) Go into a dungeon, cast it at your feet whenever enemies are near. 4) Absorb your own damage as MP and have infinite kamikaze fireballs. Congratulations, you've broken the game before reaching level 2.
You can do something similar in Arena as well. Craft a spell of Spell Absorption that uses level scaling in lieu of base power to just hit 100% absorption at your level, carry some potions of restore power to recover magicka after casting spell absorption, then fireball away at close range. I always did that against trolls and vampires, enemies that would only stay dead if you killed them with fire.

I love how Frieza floating can be inferred as the Nerevarine using levitation while fire bombing cliff racers into oblivion...and quite possibly destroying Balmora in the process. Good times.
Imperial cultists HATE HIM watch how this Nerevarine flies for hours with only 1 potion of bargain rising force! (To Stop The Moon shrine was always my favorite one)
No joke, my step brother once used a grand soul gem to make a constant levitation belt, went high above a city, and started using a glove that was cast when used aoe fire damage. He spammed it while flying above the city and all I can imagine as now(aside from crazy deathbeam) is Vegeta’s Technique.
So much fun making custom spells to absolutely ruin someone's day! Maximum drain to every stat? Ludicrous damage from 4 different elements in a single blast?
Playing a destruction mage in Skyrim on Legendary difficulty is just blasting a few firebolt hadoukens that barely scratch the foes, and then running like a bitch to recover your magicka.
What is this "recover magicka" you speak of? Isn't it customary in Skyrim for a Destruction Mage to be wearing a full set of legendary quality dragobone armour enchanted with so much bonuses to magicka regeneration that you regenerate magicka faster than you can expend it? 😁
@@thesurvivorssanctuary6561 Not really a surprise, since Skyrim doesn't have the option to customize your own spells and enchantments. Previous games in the series let you design almost anything you wanted.
Destruction magic in skyrim is more like hitting someone with 700 fireballs and they're just laughing at you but in Morrowind you're literally just wiping out all the cliff racers with big balls of poison
Morrowind Destruction is Dragon Ball and early DBZ. Skyrim Destruction (And practically everything aside from Stealth Archery) is when power scaling became pointless. As for Oblivion, what IS powerful in that is potion brewing and enchantment.
Morrowind Destruction had way too many times I had to hold back because the wrong spell doing the right thing and suddenly you are the most wanted person on that island 😂 You then casted an AOE outside of town thinking you did everyone a favor only to walk back into a town full of dead people and angry as hell guards! 😂 don’t get me started in a cave with multi levels! I feel like that stupid hunter in WOW who just pulled the whole room and then some!
He purposely waited until Uncle Caius left before casting the spell. Don't want Daddy getting caught in the blast wave. The rest of Balmora must feel my wrath as I drown out my sadness of Daddy leaving with mindless mass murder.
Best thing about Morrowind is, if you exploit it enough you can create a spell with an area of effect so massive that it can pretty much kill an entire city.
You're not doing Oblivion's custom spells justice. Paralyzing the entire town and watching them as they slowly burned and froze at the same time in agony was the stuff.
Conjuration was also pretty cool. Daedroths and Clannfears especially were busted. The master spells of ut though especially Lich aren't that good, cost way too much and then they only stay for very little time and the Liche's AI sometimes just waits multiple seconds before attacking meanwhile the Oblivion Creatures keep pummeling the enemy.
I woulda swapped skyrim and oblivion vids myself. Though I've heard they added new spells to base game in some patch that let tri magic in so maybe it is just strong enough now.
@@grimreaper63151 too bad the spell dont work as intended, draining attribute does not work on NPCs so draining 100 endurance is useless and the spell of instant death will work only if character is weak enough, after some time when npc health will scale with your level this spell wont kill them, in short, in his video it works bc he didnt level up
Could also use the soultrap trick to summon an army of permanent minions. I used to make an army of golden saints fight an army of skeletons to see how many it would take, in the middle of Balmora of course.
My favourite spell on my conjuration build is a little beaut called “GATES OF OBLIVION”. For 10 seconds, it summons: 1 clannfear, 1 dremora, 1 daedroth, 1 frost atronarch and 1 storm Atronarch. Is it particularly effective? Probably not. Does it fill me with immense child-like joy whenever I see my army of daedra briefly spring forth from a portal and cause 10 seconds of pure, unbridled, explosive chaos? Yes, every time.

If only not for the mods, I wouldn't pick my playstyle as a mage with vanilla magic in Skyrim either. But if it's modded, oh boi it feels like Avatar sometimes.
In oblivion i remember making spell that would either crash my game or kill all things around me. It was a spell to increase speed by 100 at a radius of 50 so if a enemy spotted you and took that first step they would launch foward and die of fall damage.
If you're playing anything above Adept difficulty in that game, destruction magic isn't going to do anything to enemies. Motherfuckers have so much health and tank everything.
I always liked enchanting a ring with 3 destruction effects like: damage health 100 pts for 10 sec in 100 ft, fire damage 100 pts for 10 sec in 100 ft, Shock damage 100 pts for 10 sec in 100 ft....the way the 3 balls of energy swirled around each other as they flew towards impact and the colors when they exploded was most satisfying.
@@qwertyuiopoiuytrewp okay it might have only been 2 seconds and not 10, and maybe 50 ft and not 100.... I can't remember. It was a long time ago, and I was playing Morrowind without any kind of updates or mods, literally straight off the original disc. But with the highest level ring and a grand soul gem or Azura's star, a triple element damage effect in a huge radius was frickin awesome nonetheless.
The spell creation ability in Morrowind is second to none, and has never been Repeated. The ability to make a literal NUKE spell was amazing... though you needed to be maxed out in mana lol.
@@kevgmei bag with 100% absorb magic from telekinesis. playing with atronah , mysticism 100, int 100. Telekinesis combine with dmg spell. Total spell cost must be 1/2 of character mp or lower. ist a bug
@@leelees not really a bug, it's because of the way telekinesis works. Even though it looks like you cast it on target, in reality it gets cast on you. And with the 100 absorb you can absorb your own spells. There is also something like this in skyrim, I believe. There you have a chance to absorb your cast of any summoning spell
I think the oblivion clip should have been the skyrim one, because it has so little damage. The oblivion destruction magic when creating spells can get super destructive, I made a fireball that took out an entire area of npcs and it was awesome lol
Oblivion: High Elf (max intelligence) 100 fire damage 100 shock damage 100 frost damage Area damage 20 Consume 4 magicka regen potions Obliterate Or Any Race (lvl 1/2) Health Drain 100 1 second Insta-kill everything
ive never sat down and played through oblivion myself but i have distinct memories of watching my cousin spamming aoe paralysis with infinite magicka and then start playing dollhouse with the ragdolls like some kinda psychopath on the xbox 360 version of the game
@@povilzem skyrim required a lot of things to actually hit a target to count towards leveling the skill. In morrowind if you didn't have a high enough skill in the magic school in question the spell had a chance to fizzle and fail, thus even a successful cast was enough to count towards leveling the skill. Of course you also wanted to level up skills in a balanced way to get bonuses on level up (which required you to rest in a bed to trigger iirc)
It's not the successful hit that matters. It is the fact that you succeeded in casting the spell. If I was to change one aspect of the magic it would be to make the difficulty of the spell, relative to the players abilities that would determine the gain. So if you have a 100% chance to cast (before fortifying effects) you would gain the minimum, and if you have only a very low chance, then you would get a lot more. Later games eliminated the chance system, and made magicka regenerate. Thus they needed a way to make levelups dependent on things like hitting a target.
They're both accurate, but the oblivion one is only true to vanilla, while missing the context of the bullshit you could get up to with custom spells coupled with enchanting/fortify loops. Walking into a city, and using your entire magicka pool to AOE storm every entity within its boundaries into ash never got old.
Me as well. You aren't missing anything from Oblivion IMO. Lots of walking/riding with very little around, everything levels up with you so you can wind up making the game stupid difficult to the point of a grind, the story/ending is lackluster compared to the other too. Etc
I refuse to believe you one shotted anything in skyrim with magic unless you fortify looped potions. At which point you can do the same to a fork and poke everything to death.
Eh. Destruction in Skyrim was flashy, but you can't discount Oblivion when you can shoot fireballs the size of supernovas that also make it so your next fireball does a stacking 200% extra damage.
Same thing happens with Enchanted items in Morrowind. 1 charge for a fireball that does like 500 damage and creates a 50 ft explosion, and the cast delay is 0 so you get to carpet bomb while you run and jump through Balmora.
First off, props to you for using Lina Inverse in a meme instead of Megumin. However unprops for using Freeza in the morrowind part instead of using Lina casting Dragon Slave.
Also, I just noticed but either Naga is short here or Lina is really, really tall. Because as I recall, Lina is really short, like 4'10" when she's 18, and that movie was set when she's 13 or 14. Naga is roughly as tall as Gourry.
My GOODNESS! SLAYERS! In 2023~! Most be the Modded Skyrim Experience. Also I thought for a moment that the Morrowind one would be the scene from the anime were Xellos exterminates the dragons by drawing his finger across the sky...except the dragons are replaced with Cliff Racers.
Something that makes sense with spongebob absorbing mermaid man’s spell, there was a way to break your character completely with spell making altar by using the cloning glitch and force your character to have a permanent spell and elemental resistances to reach above 100 which makes you 100% spell proof just like being spongebob yourself by absorbing everything spell like it was nothing
The custom spells in oblivion were amazing though. 5 damage fireball in 1000 foot radius lol. Paralyze for 1 second in 1000 foot radius. You could paralyze the whole town at once
Not pictured: frieza casting a custom fortify magicka soul trap projectile spell at the ground for 4 hours to get enough magicka to cast any spell he wants
I spent many hours in Skyrim to have my character use the most powerful destruction magic spells without enchantments only to be disappointment by the damage done, hell it’s even shit against standard enemies.
@@morva4498 When I played oblivion I had the difficulty on what some would consider easy because any higher I’d be fighting a single enemy for 10 minutes. The only time I said it to max difficulty was when it was a one on one boss fight.
@@Revick_Revas True. Though I find magic to be underpowered in oblivion in general, especially Healing. Healing is actually good in Skyrim, but boy does it hardly do anything in oblivion. I was happy to switch from magic healing focus to alchemy healing focus in oblivion.
@@morva4498 You didn't understand the magic system in Oblivion then. Magic in Oblivion can let you jump across the whole map, and one shot near enough anything.
lol making Comic Book Guy a Dunmer. Morrowind was fun with how insane you could get with messing with alchemy. While on the other hand you start the game and your punches frequently miss a giant crab that's right up in your face. That reminds me of the fun I had when I used to lead large packs of Daedra into towns to torment the npcs.
Illusion in Oblivion is so busted, if you get an invisibility spell like Deathly Visage and your Magicka regens fast enough, you can go ANYWHERE without getting attacked.
Invisibility is technically garbage in all three games. In Morrowind and Oblivion because 100% Chameleon is its vastly superior older brother..... and in Skyrim because Fortify Sneak renders it completely redundant.
Destruction in Skyrim is pretty much the combination of infinite mana plus the Impact perk which let you keep staggering pretty much everything, even dragons. Not really a fun way to play but very safe.
For those that didn't play Morrowind, with enough Magicka, you can kill everyone who is outdoors in an area bigger than a city with a single spell. You don't even need much to have literal touch of death spells with multiple effects overlapping
Reactions to imminent doom: The geek dunmer reading about Aquaman romance: " Oh ... I've wasted my life !" A certain imperial chad high on skooma reading the lusty argonian maid : "Think it will rain ?"
Destruction magic is actually completely broken in Oblivion if you know how to use it properly. You just need to use weaknesses to magica spells and combine it with weakness to an element and since Oblivion doesn't differentiate between elemental and non elemental magic, weakness to magica will not only boost the weakness to an element spell but also your damaging spell. By just casting a single spell of 100% magic weakness for 5 seconds and 100% weakness to any element for 100% for 5 seconds, you are already dealing 4 times the normal damage. But the thing is, you can even stack this effect since an opponent now weaker to every magic effect is now also weaker against your weakness spells. Combine this with paralysis for 1 second (you don't need more) and after casting your weakness spell three times bevor using your damaging spell, you are dealing 36 times your normal damage.
This is not true. The weakness spells cost almost nothing and don't need a long duration because you spam them while your opponent is paralysed. I played through all of Oblivion on max difficulty doing this. I would endorse you to test it out for yourself.
Okay, I someday need to make a tutorial video where I explain everything. The weakness spell spells literally cost like 20 magica to cast and you rarely need to cast them more than 2 times.
I checked EVERY comment, many people ask what anime this is, and probably gonna watch! Thanks you for this, maybe more people will be watch my favourite anime
It's even worst with paralyze rune of the creation club (but at Riften at Alteration 40), it's like a mass paralysis without the casting of a master spell
i really thought the morrowind spell was going to charge to a huge point and then fail to cast
That would have been golden! 🤣

I like low level op mods for this reason. But Im on ps4 so all I get are fake mods anyways. Still, shouts out Elemental Bolt and Unbounded Storm lol
If only not for the mods, I wouldn't pick my playstyle as a mage with vanilla magic in Skyrim either. But if it's modded, oh boi it feels like Avatar sometimes.
The constant stagger is it's main advantage. In AE you get a better destruction spell that does more damage but that's it.
Not if you make a good destruction mage build. My second playthrough was destruction mage on vanilla skyrim and it was amazing.
The lack of stats really screwed over the mages.
In oblivion i remember making spell that would either crash my game or kill all things around me. It was a spell to increase speed by 100 at a radius of 50 so if a enemy spotted you and took that first step they would launch foward and die of fall damage.
I mean if you aren't able to wipe a whole town out in a single shot by the end of the game, are you even really *playing* it?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why at the end? At it's start when you learn your first spells in Balmora's mage guild and then open a console...
Wdym "end of the game"? That's a beginner level spell in Morrowind.
lvl 1 alchemist lizard boi. "MY POWERS ARE BEYOND YOUR COMPREHENSION!"
You stopped at one?
Pathetic.
Starting off strong with a Slayers clip and ending strong with DBZ. Full respect.
Daggerfall spells...forget every enemy is extremely resistant to magic in this game😤
Daggerfall spells is you casting fireball at your feet ad infinitum with general spell absorption.
Unfortunately, on high levels in Skyrim, your destruction magic will only explode your enemies in laughter
Yep. No damage scaling on Destruction in vanilla.
I forgot that.. it has been many years since I played vanilla Skyrim. Magic was too poopy to endure
Destruction in Skyrim is actually the Vegeta Technique
@@aprinnyonbreak1290 "Has that ever worked"-Perfect Cell
If you're playing anything above Adept difficulty in that game, destruction magic isn't going to do anything to enemies. Motherfuckers have so much health and tank everything.
I always liked enchanting a ring with 3 destruction effects like: damage health 100 pts for 10 sec in 100 ft, fire damage 100 pts for 10 sec in 100 ft, Shock damage 100 pts for 10 sec in 100 ft....the way the 3 balls of energy swirled around each other as they flew towards impact and the colors when they exploded was most satisfying.
It is the same as Almalexia spell... Just for 10 sec instead of 1.
that can't fit in 120 enchant points which is the largest on a ring
i don't think it can even fit in 225
Huh. Whenever I made a max fire/ice/shock spell it always just had the shock effect. Disappointing
@@qwertyuiopoiuytrewp okay it might have only been 2 seconds and not 10, and maybe 50 ft and not 100.... I can't remember. It was a long time ago, and I was playing Morrowind without any kind of updates or mods, literally straight off the original disc. But with the highest level ring and a grand soul gem or Azura's star, a triple element damage effect in a huge radius was frickin awesome nonetheless.
i'm simply happy someone used good ol' slayers in a meme, it's just heart-warming
Is Slayers anime good?
@@icebatofvalikinRRBZ8 indeed, you should give it a try
The spell creation ability in Morrowind is second to none, and has never been Repeated. The ability to make a literal NUKE spell was amazing... though you needed to be maxed out in mana lol.
Destruction in Oblivion is powerful if you know how to properly create your spells
and it posble to make them cost 0mp)
@@leelees WHAAAAAAAT?
@@kevgmei bag with 100% absorb magic from telekinesis. playing with atronah , mysticism 100, int 100. Telekinesis combine with dmg spell. Total spell cost must be 1/2 of character mp or lower. ist a bug
@lee_lees not quite how it works but you get the gist
@@leelees not really a bug, it's because of the way telekinesis works. Even though it looks like you cast it on target, in reality it gets cast on you. And with the 100 absorb you can absorb your own spells.
There is also something like this in skyrim, I believe. There you have a chance to absorb your cast of any summoning spell
The crime has been reported just got me.😂
I think the oblivion clip should have been the skyrim one, because it has so little damage. The oblivion destruction magic when creating spells can get super destructive, I made a fireball that took out an entire area of npcs and it was awesome lol
in tesIV spell can be bugfull high dmg and spend 0mp. it's unballance if u know how todo it. like a bug with alchemy in tesV (without USLEP)
And then the one guy with spell reflect in the area laughs as you spontaneously combust.
@@MugwumptheGrand that's why you always have 100% spell absorption.

You can successfully cast a destruction spell in Morrowind at no target and still level the skill up 😆
You can't in Skyrim?
@@povilzem skyrim required a lot of things to actually hit a target to count towards leveling the skill. In morrowind if you didn't have a high enough skill in the magic school in question the spell had a chance to fizzle and fail, thus even a successful cast was enough to count towards leveling the skill. Of course you also wanted to level up skills in a balanced way to get bonuses on level up (which required you to rest in a bed to trigger iirc)
It's not the successful hit that matters. It is the fact that you succeeded in casting the spell. If I was to change one aspect of the magic it would be to make the difficulty of the spell, relative to the players abilities that would determine the gain. So if you have a 100% chance to cast (before fortifying effects) you would gain the minimum, and if you have only a very low chance, then you would get a lot more.
Later games eliminated the chance system, and made magicka regenerate. Thus they needed a way to make levelups dependent on things like hitting a target.
Slayers edits? OVA to boot? Hook it to my veins.
Finnaly someone use Slayers in memes
As a guy who played both skyrim and morrowind, I can confirm that this video is pretty accurate for both games.
They're both accurate, but the oblivion one is only true to vanilla, while missing the context of the bullshit you could get up to with custom spells coupled with enchanting/fortify loops. Walking into a city, and using your entire magicka pool to AOE storm every entity within its boundaries into ash never got old.
Me as well. You aren't missing anything from Oblivion IMO. Lots of walking/riding with very little around, everything levels up with you so you can wind up making the game stupid difficult to the point of a grind, the story/ending is lackluster compared to the other too. Etc
I refuse to believe you one shotted anything in skyrim with magic unless you fortify looped potions. At which point you can do the same to a fork and poke everything to death.
@@CirnoFairy it's just funny meme , we all know magic in Skyrim is terrible past early game.
@@VarenvelDarakus You must be really sucking at playing a mage might just stick to the stealth archer build which is probably all your doing anyways
Eh. Destruction in Skyrim was flashy, but you can't discount Oblivion when you can shoot fireballs the size of supernovas that also make it so your next fireball does a stacking 200% extra damage.
slayers, very nice
FINALLY someone did DB and ES 👏👏👏👏❤props to the king MTP
Thank you very much
@@MyTwoPence 👍
Same thing happens with Enchanted items in Morrowind. 1 charge for a fireball that does like 500 damage and creates a 50 ft explosion, and the cast delay is 0 so you get to carpet bomb while you run and jump through Balmora.
What really sold me was all those "crime reported" pop-ups when the Death Ball hit the city in _Morrowind._ Good attention to detail!
First off, props to you for using Lina Inverse in a meme instead of Megumin.
However unprops for using Freeza in the morrowind part instead of using Lina casting Dragon Slave.
Also, I just noticed but either Naga is short here or Lina is really, really tall. Because as I recall, Lina is really short, like 4'10" when she's 18, and that movie was set when she's 13 or 14.
Naga is roughly as tall as Gourry.

You missed the part where the skyrim bandit would still be alive.
I love how the subtitles say applause during the Explosions! 🤣😂🤣
My GOODNESS!
SLAYERS!
In 2023~!
Most be the Modded Skyrim Experience.
Also I thought for a moment that the Morrowind one would be the scene from the anime were Xellos exterminates the dragons by drawing his finger across the sky...except the dragons are replaced with Cliff Racers.
This was awesome too but Xellos and the Cliff Races would be amazing! :D
I actually find 1 Dragon Slave mod, but he is not good
Lina Inverse should technically be in Morrowind.
True
You forgot the part where Morrowind crashes.
Something that makes sense with spongebob absorbing mermaid man’s spell, there was a way to break your character completely with spell making altar by using the cloning glitch and force your character to have a permanent spell and elemental resistances to reach above 100 which makes you 100% spell proof just like being spongebob yourself by absorbing everything spell like it was nothing
That ending was unexpected and brilliant.
Lmao, i missed The Slayers And returned as memes
Instead Frieza,The Rezo's Copy, The original Pain
I see you too are a man of culture
Omg that Frieza sequence is fantastic
I'd personally switch the Skyrim and Oblivion memes around, but it's still pretty funny
Destruction in Skyrim is like Darth Sidious vs Mace Windu but on a 10h loop (Power Unlimited Power)
The custom spells in oblivion were amazing though. 5 damage fireball in 1000 foot radius lol. Paralyze for 1 second in 1000 foot radius. You could paralyze the whole town at once
This is the most accurate portrayal I've ever seen
Weird destruction is only good with fortify alchemy potion, for skyrim
And restoration loop exploit... normal potions that you are making with alchemy gear are giving something around 25% boost.
Top-notch editing, my good man. Loved the video.
Oblivion had that create a spell mechanic though, that's what I thought the death ball was going to reference because you could create serious nukes
Oblivion was like making tactical low yield nukes, morrowind was full blown tsar bomba.
Not pictured: frieza casting a custom fortify magicka soul trap projectile spell at the ground for 4 hours to get enough magicka to cast any spell he wants
I guess you learnt about the target glitch when people still thought it required soul trap.
@@SotiCoto it doesn't?
Love slayers, huge respect.

As a hardcore Slayers fan, I approve of this message....
Destruction in Oblivion POST wizard tower: "THEN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE IS GOING TO DIE"
I spent many hours in Skyrim to have my character use the most powerful destruction magic spells without enchantments only to be disappointment by the damage done, hell it’s even shit against standard enemies.
Something tells me you wouldn't like being a mage in Oblivion.
@@morva4498 When I played oblivion I had the difficulty on what some would consider easy because any higher I’d be fighting a single enemy for 10 minutes. The only time I said it to max difficulty was when it was a one on one boss fight.
@@Revick_Revas True. Though I find magic to be underpowered in oblivion in general, especially Healing. Healing is actually good in Skyrim, but boy does it hardly do anything in oblivion. I was happy to switch from magic healing focus to alchemy healing focus in oblivion.
@@morva4498 You didn't understand the magic system in Oblivion then. Magic in Oblivion can let you jump across the whole map, and one shot near enough anything.
@@xoire9754 Sure doesn't let me heal worth anything. It more sounds like you are describing the Morrowind magic.
loved morrowind very very few games that gave u the ability to make spells from almost scratch ideas
You forgot the part in Morrowind where the setup takes multiple episodes of chugging potions and blipping through loading screens.
How can a crime be reported, if everyone is dead? - Frieza the Dunmer...maybe?
This is so accurate because he even used Levitation 🙏❤️
My spell kills everyone in Balmora at once. I still get reported with no witnesses.
First time I played around with destruction magic in Morrowind, I accidentally created a firebomb and blew up the entire Balmora Mage’s Guild.
Frieza's laugh is exactly what it feels like going on a killing spree in TES. Nice slayers reference btw :)
lol making Comic Book Guy a Dunmer. Morrowind was fun with how insane you could get with messing with alchemy. While on the other hand you start the game and your punches frequently miss a giant crab that's right up in your face.
That reminds me of the fun I had when I used to lead large packs of Daedra into towns to torment the npcs.
We all watched that video back in the day where the guy nukes Balmora.
Illusion in Oblivion is so busted, if you get an invisibility spell like Deathly Visage and your Magicka regens fast enough, you can go ANYWHERE without getting attacked.
Invisibility is technically garbage in all three games. In Morrowind and Oblivion because 100% Chameleon is its vastly superior older brother..... and in Skyrim because Fortify Sneak renders it completely redundant.
Oh Lina, your capacity for mayhem is only matched by your adorableness.
Destruction in Skyrim is pretty much the combination of infinite mana plus the Impact perk which let you keep staggering pretty much everything, even dragons. Not really a fun way to play but very safe.
For those that didn't play Morrowind, with enough Magicka, you can kill everyone who is outdoors in an area bigger than a city with a single spell. You don't even need much to have literal touch of death spells with multiple effects overlapping
Reactions to imminent doom:
The geek dunmer reading about Aquaman romance:
" Oh ... I've wasted my life !"
A certain imperial chad high on skooma reading the lusty argonian maid :
"Think it will rain ?"
A yes, Morrowind. I remember singlehandedly taking over the island and turned the guards into deadric legions...
In the words of Mandy: "You don't cast magic... you *COMMIT* magic!"
Now wait a minute! Just hold up there, now! If'n there ain't no body alive, then who done did all them crime report'n?
By far Dru's favorite TES meme video of yours.
I was waiting for “You failed casting the spell”
Destruction magic is actually completely broken in Oblivion if you know how to use it properly.
You just need to use weaknesses to magica spells and combine it with weakness to an element and since Oblivion doesn't differentiate between elemental and non elemental magic, weakness to magica will not only boost the weakness to an element spell but also your damaging spell.
By just casting a single spell of 100% magic weakness for 5 seconds and 100% weakness to any element for 100% for 5 seconds, you are already dealing 4 times the normal damage.
But the thing is, you can even stack this effect since an opponent now weaker to every magic effect is now also weaker against your weakness spells. Combine this with paralysis for 1 second (you don't need more) and after casting your weakness spell three times bevor using your damaging spell, you are dealing 36 times your normal damage.
My God...
yeah, but realistically you will never have enough magicka to cast said spells before they run out
This is not true. The weakness spells cost almost nothing and don't need a long duration because you spam them while your opponent is paralysed. I played through all of Oblivion on max difficulty doing this. I would endorse you to test it out for yourself.
@@marcoflorianefinger6937 Ok, but you're still casting your painless waterball 2-3 times for every enemy before the next shot can kill them.
Okay, I someday need to make a tutorial video where I explain everything. The weakness spell spells literally cost like 20 magica to cast and you rarely need to cast them more than 2 times.
I checked EVERY comment, many people ask what anime this is, and probably gonna watch! Thanks you for this, maybe more people will be watch my favourite anime
I like the way destruction magic looks in Skyrim more, to me that makes it more fun!
You know what would've been even better? Frieza shooting that nuke only to get REFLECTED back at him by a dude with a bullshit constant effect reflect
This just reminds me when my friend made a paralyze spell that blasted a whole city. Morrowind was really something else
"Your crimes have been reported."
By who?!
As someone who has never played morrowind seeing these memes make me wanna try..
I never thought I would see Lina Inverse from Slayers at the start of the video, immediate like.
Destruction is only that powerful in Skyrim early on. By the time you can get it to 75 it's outclassed by every other playstyle.
Fireball + Dual Casting + Impact needs only 50. Who cares how strong it is if you can STUNLOCK. The only way to fight that's any fun in that game.
It's even worst with paralyze rune of the creation club (but at Riften at Alteration 40), it's like a mass paralysis without the casting of a master spell
Frieza caused Red Mountain's eruption; confirmed canon.
The fact that you could start the day abusing potions then nuke Balmora juste for fun the very afternoon of the same day.
So that's how red mountain incident happened.
I lost me shit on this one. Absolutely top tier bro, hands down a work of art.
A lot of work has been done here, my friend, I'm still far away from you, I'll take an example and do even better!
The Morrowind spell so accurate lmfao I remember making nukes in that game with custom spell creations and the construction kit.
Ok thats the best portrayal of Morrowind's freedom for sure.
