I fucking love how weapons in oblivion where ACTUALLY unique and you could tell you had a rare weapon and not just a generic weapon with a buff enchantment
Very few "unique" items had an interesting enchantment in Skyrim. Zephyr, Ghostblade, Wuuthrad come to mind. Most of "unique" weapons in Skyrim had generic enchantments and didn't even have a unique model for example:Aegisbane, The Pale Blade, Red Eagle's Bane. It was super lame. Is it so hard to come up with a unique model? No, people from Bethesda were just super lazy.
Was never into Fallout 4, so I don't know, but I very MUCH agree with Skyrim. There were like 5 unique blades with different enchantments but the same mesh and textures :/. Akaviri blade, Harkon's sword, Bolar's oathblade, Dragonbane. Now, there were 3-4 redguard 'unique' swords with different enchantments. Windshear, Bloodscythe, Soulrender.
who's playing in 2020? I just got it last week. kicking some ass and getting all the sigils just running around drinking strong potions of invisibility.
@@goldedrag111 no but I literally just turned my game on . Now I know what to do. I got umbra,frostwyrm and an oblivion gate is all that I've done so far.
I think the biggest reason why Oblivion is so iconic and memorable is because they absolutely nailed the sound design and soundscape. Everything from the sound of your journal opening to the swishing of a blade to the twang of an arrow to spells shooting off, storms and thunder clashing, monsters screaming, bandits shouting, and the music!! Oooooohetc the music!!
It's the same with the Fallout series, tbh. New Vegas had tons of unique weapons. FO4 has the same models with different effects. Bethesda are getting lazy.
i stoped playing skyrim and this is one of the reasons...no matter steel or dragonbone...its almost the same..what a shame...i love skyrim but now i started oblivion and i am in love again...i like it more than skyrim...the story,the quests,gameplay...the map,the world....seems more like the wonderland of elder scrolls..skyrim is very poor on visuals,effects and overall appearence...its a shame but this is it...im waiting tes 6 :)
yeah that's a known bug of the rosethorn hall. There are certain spots that where this will happen. Also you can't place sigil stones. They will also go nuts for some reason
Dragonsword of Lainlyn. A one-handed longsword added in the Battlehorn Castle DLC, at lvl 25+ it does 23 base damage, 30 points of Fire Damage, Absorbs 25 Stamina for 5 seconds, and teaches a Lesser Power that is immune to Silence and does 30 Fire Damage in 10ft of the target. Absorbing all of an enemies stamina causes them to stagger and fall down, second only to paralysis magic. Dragonsword has the highest absorb stamina enchant in the game, and causes enemies to fall down left and right, so they can't block. My favorite weapon.
*Equip daedric dagger *Enchant for maximum possible fire damage. *Enchant for weakness to magic on strike. *Enchant for weakness to fire on strike. Enjoy.
Get ridiculous amount of money. Get a spell that deals 999999999999999999999999 damage in 9999999999999 range. Kill Methunes Dagon personaly with 2 shots. AHAHHAHHAHAHHAHA!
Get a daedric/madness/amber weapon -enchant with 14 points of fire,frost,shock damage -enchant with 100% weakness to fire,frost,shock,magicka -enchant with soultrap BENEFIT
One important note is that the Crusader weapons and armor, if you got them at a lower level, reset to the current leveled effectiveness when you place them on their stand in the Chapel. This also fully repairs the armor, as well as fully recharging the weapons.
i didnt know that you could get them to be levelled to your current.. i remember i was about like lvl 10 and decided i wanted to do the quest as i bought the game of the year edition with the 2 major dlcs and after a while it was basically useless.. cool, if i ever go back to it il bear that in mind
loads of time I might as well have spend on my studies at university. Have a look at my item collection to get a sense of how much time I really wasted! th-cam.com/video/2P8jdHsQulg/w-d-xo.html
MrWIWARD haha i've also done that in oblivion! Unfortunately in Skyrim it is nearly impossible to place items and decorate your home with them:( i had much fun with that in oblivion
I just LOVE the sound effect of Umbra being unsheathed! That and its damage makes my top weapon. I fondly remember cheesing Umbra by jumping on the pillar with multiple 2 handed weapons to level. Then trying normally only to get wrecked when I was younger.
I just came across your video and I used to name my custom class Witch-King and my final gear was a full set of Madness armor enchanted with +50 Magicka stones and some other stuff like light named Witch-King Cuirass/Greaves etc… Love the fact that you went for the full role play and named you elfic set Ayleid Witchking with the hood it looks amazing !!! Ah oblivion what a game
Umbra stands out the most if you don't do the questline for it because then it remains weightless. However you lose the ability to drop it not that you would ever want to. Weightless umbra provides a large perk to stealth based characters. Imho the best thing you can do in the start of any run is to steal the Dark Brotherhood set from J'ghasta's house and get umbra. It establishes a really effective early game for a stealth character. I also like to pair it with strong poisons and sneak bonuses due to its lack of effect, really brings out its beauty.
Shadowrend isn't limited to being a Claymore. it takes the form of whatever weapon (other than a staff) you happened to have equipped when the Shadow spawns
1 of my main reasons why I fell on love with this game n Skyrim was mostly because of the fact that you can picklock/break in any house or store and Steal from them and also pickpocket people inside their house while asleep or awake when walking. And that right there is why I started playing these type of games and fell in love with it. That’s just 1 reason now there is a bunch of reasons why I still love this game n series.
1) There's no way that 9 out of the 10 best weapons are blades. I prefer blades because they weigh a lot less, but most of the most powerful weapons are blunt weapons. Also, the most OP weapon in Oblivion is the Hatreds Soul bow with high-damage enchanted arrows. If your Marksman, Sneak, and Agility are maxed out at 100, you can kill almost anything in the game with two or three long-distance shots. I killed Umaril in two shots once, killed Jyggalag in three shots, killed Umbra in three shots, and killed Mankoran in two shots. If you snipe enemies from far enough back, it drains most of their health AND freezes them because of the speed drain. And if you have three Hatreds Soul bows in your inventory, it will refill the magic every time you swap one out, so you'll have fully charged bows without using Varla Stones or Soul Gems. NOTHING is more powerful than a maxed-out archer with the best bow and arrows.
I haven't been able to buy a system console for myself ever this will be the first one I get to buy a PS3 tomorrow and for my son a Sega Genesis multi-game pack and myself Oblivion game of the Year edition. Oh the many hours I've put into this game this was when I was fresh out of high school. Great memories great game
I literally got oblivion sometime in 2010 and I just beat the main story line 2 days ago for the 1st time and never looked it up. If there's one thing skyrim needs that oblivion has it making your own spells.
Truncheon of Submission ! Bought in Anvil, it actually HEALS your target but depletes his stamina, so you can paralyze without killing ! I also love the troll combo Staff of Everscamp + Azura Star + Apotheosis Staff : basically, scamps perpetually respawn, allowing to constantly fill the Star, allowing to constantly refill Apotheosis. Fire from afar, the scamps can serve as blocking meatshield ! Not that effective, but somewhat funny. But my fav weapons still is the standard one handed Glass Mace. So glossy, so icy !
I remember when my Ancient Akaviri Katana which was enchanted with damage health 30 pts got disintegrated by some Dremora, so I started slaughtering the entire plane of Oblivion with Shadowrend.
was hoping u could upload a video of the best light armor, and the best heavy armor. I am needing to find good strong sneaking light armor. please reply
hmm... thats a tough one I never played as a thief. maybe you are best of enchanting a set of armour. I would always take a set of casual clothes, a ring and an amulet and enchant all of them with a chameleon enchantment to get 100% invisible. But maybe this makes the whole game a little bit too easy ;-)
This is where it gets a little bit complicated. You need an illusion skill of 50 i think (Just level up by spamming any low level illusion spell) to be able to use low end chameleon spells. And then you need 5 large soul gems to enchant your items to get 20% chameleon on each. To enchant them you need access to an enchantment altar, which in the original game can only be found at the arcane university. Which means you need to join the mages guild an get all the recomendations etc.
MrWIWARD: is there a place where I can buy or specifically find chameleon armor? I already have the gauntlets from the khajit in the dark brotherhood, but I want more.
You can get the ring of kajiiti by completing the daedric quest for meridia, it has 35% chameleon other than that I'm not aware of any item as effective
Shadowrend is an axe if you have a higher blunt stat when you go to the tree of shades, and a sword if you have a higher blade stat or blade and blunt are at the same level
If you go to Vindasel and don´t kill umbra, move back to the shrine of Clavicus Vile and just finish the quest without a reward, you can go back to umbra later, kill her and get her sword, now it will be weightless quest item.
Best weapon i have found is Rockshatter. When i maxed out everything, did all quests plus dlcs, i went 100% chameleon and found Rockshatter killed enemies of all types faster than everything else, including custom daedric, shadowrendm goldbrand, dawnfang, etc. that shock plus 35% weakness to shock is the winner by a country mile. Plus it’s weightless until you return it for the quest.
Nice video But theres one weapon that i dont understand why you didnt put on the list The crimson eviscerator: Its stats are godlike -absorb strengh 20 for 5 seconds on strike -damage health 35 points on strike -damage magicka 35 points on strike -weakness 35% to poison on strike Its aquisition is a little weird though
actually in my opinion the best blade in the game is 'The Curse of The Ayleids' its a one of a kind weapon appearing as an elven shortsword / mace (depending on your higher lvl blunt or blade and if equal gives blade) this unique weapon has a broken enchantment where it drains health 100 pts for 1 second and light 100ft 2 seconds and has 45 uses it is supposed to be available at lvl 30+ (no DLC) but is available at any lvl, kinda, is was never properly put in game and was supposed to have more than 1 second of 100 health drain but this doesn't matter because you cant even get it on PC properly the only way to obtain it is at magic place in imperial city but it isn't there you have to make it (enchant it) yourself but you can get same effects as the blade does with the same charge by using the black soul gem or grand soul gem (grand soul filled) this is probably another error that you can make it yourself and it took me 3 months to find it in pc's console (thats how I discovered it) and couldn't find it anywhere online, also why making it is better is you get same effects without having to look for forever in console and is make able on xbox and ps3 cheap instakills on anything with health at or lower than 100 though doesn't work on magic immune creatures like that guy with the 'grey agis' at arena' unless you can break his shield or disarm him
thats not surprising really, as i didnt either. everything I found out was on pc using console commands though when I tried to get it on my highest leveled serious character i couldn't find it again in the console (I just assumed i wasn't looking hard enough and moved on) also i dont think the sword is that important or special anyway because of its basic pre-used weapon skin and that you can get same effect with grand soul gem at Arcane University Cryonasium (FuckSpelling) and that you cant display it because player.placeatme command makes it look like a purple rectangle and if you pick it up and drop it, drag it or TK it and sometimes even sell it your game will crash or freeze... also it's value is -1250 (at least with my mercantile lvl)i know because every time i sold it it took away that muck money from my character before it froze... or crashed PS: if you can find out anything tell me, I would love to know (I dont use mods other than that oblivion unofficial patch if that helps)
4:26 AHAHAHAHA!! You pick up Umbra and stuff just goes flying! That's why this is one of my favorite games of all time. It's not only extremely good, but the glitches and voice acting make it hilarious as well.
Actual strongest: *the mace of doom* To get it go to the frostcrag spire house then save in the living area (the place with the plants) Save there then go and uninstall the dlc (you can reinstall afterwards). When you load your save you’ll be in a black void seeing the inside of a house. Move towards the house and eventually you’ll get teleported inside of it. Leave the house and you’ll be in the testing area. The mace is in the middle of the village. It does over 200 thousand damage and uses blade instead of blunt skill unlike most maces. You can leave the area by fast traveling.
One of the few good videos about this topic, im sad that there was no dragon sword of lainlyn, since its one of the most badass, or even the crimson eviscerator The only real problem in this is that there werent any bows, and even though archery is pretty weak in this game, hatreds( whatever) is really good, and with the right arrows you can kick ass, not to mention that dawnfang superior is better than goldbrand
Im going through some mendela effect stuff i could have sworn there was like a easter egg in this game where you get the biggoron sword from ocarina of time
Might be right there. It would at least deserve an honorable mention. Maby could have put a couple more blunt weapons in there in general but I almost exclusively use bladed weapons on all of my characters
It kind of sucks that the majority of enchanted weapons are blade. I love blunt but there's barely any interesting enchanted weapons you can find. Two handed weapons get even worse treatment.
Yeah You've got a point there. I actually prefer Skyrim's take on the whole blunt/blade and one-handed/ two-handed weapons thing. There is little reason to chose blunt skill over blade skill in Oblivion
Yeah I agree as well. I also like how Skyrim gave maces(or hammers), axes and swords different attack speeds and stagger rates, it gives the player more choice in the way they play.
The only named weapon I ever use is the Honorblade of Chorrol, because it's strong, can harm ghosts, and weighs nothing. In the rare case that I need something that hits harder, I keep Azura's Star, and a Glass Longsword, enchanted with a two-second soul-trap, and equal parts 2-second Shock, Flame, and Frost damage (for the maximum amount of damage a Grand Soul will allow). With this I can kill almost anything within a couple hits, and I don't need it to have a bunch of uses, because I'm constantly re-filling it every time I kill anything with a white soul.
this is of course a good strategy. You might even want to consider using a daedric longsword and enchant it, since glass weapons are only the third strongest tier. I do have to say however that I prefer unique weapons to custom ones. They just appeal to me more.
I know that sword, it's actually quite good. But the fighters stronghold dlc isn't very common and I prefered to just include arms that most players can get, so I only include the two big dlcs: knights of the nine and shivering isles
Exactly the reason why I can't play Oblivion in high-levels. So "conservative" I am of my weapon charges. Even 2-3 enemies are sometimes enough to drain certain weapons.
I respectfully disagree with this list. Based on effectiveness against enemies from the point of their availability until their replacement becomes available, here is my list. Level 1 Blunt: Callibens Grim Retort (replaced by Mace of Molag Bal) Blade: Honorblade (replaced by Goldbrand) Bow: Frostwyrm (replaced by level 19 Hatreds Soul) Level 15: Ebony blade (especially effective against Spider Deadra) Level 17 Blunt: Mace of Molag Bal Level 19 Bow: Hatreds Soul Blunt: Hatreds Heart The damage speed enchantment on earlier versions of these weapons does not stun enemies for repeated sneak attacks. Level 20 Blade: Goldbrand --The end game (level 50) Blade specialist does fine carrying Ebony Blade and Goldbrand but must have Azura's Star and a soul trap spell to recharge frequently. These are good weapons for confrontational melee fighters. --The end game Blunt user does best with sneak attacks, stunning enemies with a single hit from Hatreds Heart and then finishing them off with 6X sneak hits from a depleted Mace of Molag Bal, level 25 Rock Shatter, or a second, depleted, lvl 19 Hatreds Heart. Soul trapping may not be necessary--you can collect enough varla stones and filled soul gems to keep single hit Hatreds Heart going for a long long time. Soul trapping blunt weapons are also available in random loot. --The end game bow user can do everything with two copies of Hatred's Soul and a quiver full of steel arrows, one bow stays enchanted for the stun shot, and one stays depleted for the followup 3x sneak hits. --You can argue that Umbra is better than Honorblade (it is more powerful) but Honorblade is easier to get, easier to repair, and can be traded in for the Escutcheon of Chorrol after it is replaced. Umbra is, however, a must-have weapon for Conjurer's who want to safely trap souls for recharging their staves while their pets are doing the killing for them. Experience playing at high difficulty shows that Volendrung does not replace Callibens Grim Retort because it is slow and two-handed--so there are no 6x sneak attacks, shields cannot be used with it, its base damage is only Dwarven when Elven warhammers are already in the game. The paralyze effect does not offset the drawbacks.
I would disagree with you on that. As you see Goldbrand is my #2, so essentially my #1 from the original game. It is only 3 DMG points short of Umbra's base DMG but its enchantment adds 22 points of fire DMG which makes it much more effective in most circumstances. It also has 3000 magical charge compared to Umbra's 2500. The 120 sec soul trap enchantment is overkill and has little practical use
True Point Btw Umbra U Can Get Legit At Lvl 1 But Goldbrand Boethia's Shrine To Long Hey Another Question (Iv Got Frostwyrm) I'm In To Bows I Needs Fast And Easy Bow To Get Please Reply (Don't Include: Hatred,Dynamo And Infliction)
Itz Kruizy That's a tough one to be honest. There aren't really any unique bows that are particularly effective, besides the fact that Archery is a pretty badly balanced skill in Oblivion. I like to just take the most effective bow I can get (Daedric or Perfect Amber for example) an enchant it using a sigil stone. Add fire, frost or damage health and thats as effective as your bows will get in oblivion
+MrWIWARD Seen That Stuff And I Agree Oblivion Is Not A Archer Based Game Skyrim Would Be Rather Better For Eg: Glass Bow Of Staggered Prince Zephyr Bow And Firineils End (Can't Spell) And Yea But I'm Looking For A Wilderness Bow Where U Can Find It Its Hard -_-

I fucking love how weapons in oblivion where ACTUALLY unique and you could tell you had a rare weapon and not just a generic weapon with a buff enchantment
Shell Bell that was my major problem with skyrim
nope nope Agreed
Skyrims unique weapons actually had cool affects and looked different in oblivion it was just an enchanted item that the same as non unique items
Very few "unique" items had an interesting enchantment in Skyrim.
Zephyr, Ghostblade, Wuuthrad come to mind.
Most of "unique" weapons in Skyrim had generic enchantments and didn't even have a unique model for example:Aegisbane, The Pale Blade, Red Eagle's Bane.
It was super lame.
Is it so hard to come up with a unique model?
No, people from Bethesda were just super lazy.
Hadzi Prodan exactly
Back when "unique" weapons didn't all look the same and you could find them organically.
What do you mean? In what game do they all look the same?
Joey's Double Chin Skyrim, Fallout 4
Was never into Fallout 4, so I don't know, but I very MUCH agree with Skyrim. There were like 5 unique blades with different enchantments but the same mesh and textures :/. Akaviri blade, Harkon's sword, Bolar's oathblade, Dragonbane.
Now, there were 3-4 redguard 'unique' swords with different enchantments. Windshear, Bloodscythe, Soulrender.

Really similar though

They're used to hold Oblivion gates open, of course they go nuts.
Just put them on the floor.
Unless you are really attached to them.
Something to note about Umbra: if you never completed the quest, it can stay in your inventory in case you decide to go to jail
Like every other quest item...lol...
And even better: its weight is 0
Dawnfang/Duskfang is my favorite weapon in Oblivion. Love the sword of the Crusader too.

Get out and stay out
Let's go, replaying oblivion for the first time in 10 years currently
1) There's no way that 9 out of the 10 best weapons are blades. I prefer blades because they weigh a lot less, but most of the most powerful weapons are blunt weapons.
Also, the most OP weapon in Oblivion is the Hatreds Soul bow with high-damage enchanted arrows. If your Marksman, Sneak, and Agility are maxed out at 100, you can kill almost anything in the game with two or three long-distance shots. I killed Umaril in two shots once, killed Jyggalag in three shots, killed Umbra in three shots, and killed Mankoran in two shots. If you snipe enemies from far enough back, it drains most of their health AND freezes them because of the speed drain. And if you have three Hatreds Soul bows in your inventory, it will refill the magic every time you swap one out, so you'll have fully charged bows without using Varla Stones or Soul Gems. NOTHING is more powerful than a maxed-out archer with the best bow and arrows.
Im glad i already know WHERE to go to get these weapons..... thanks...
I haven't been able to buy a system console for myself ever this will be the first one I get to buy a PS3 tomorrow and for my son a Sega Genesis multi-game pack and myself Oblivion game of the Year edition. Oh the many hours I've put into this game this was when I was fresh out of high school. Great memories great game
over 10.000 views everyone! Amazing, never thought this to be possible. Thanks to all of you!
Cay you do me a favor?
Do you use mods? And if so - could you please list them.
Sure, If you want to call it a favour. I'm not using any mods at all, only the official addons knights of the nine and shivering isles
MrWIWARD Ah! Cool. Time to dig out oblivion again!

IMO skyrim needed some more unique-looking weapons.. alot of the unique items in skyrim are reskins..
amen
One of the few videos that appreciates shadowrend for what it is best weapon ever
That's why I thought there should be another video done on the topic
I just bought Oblivion today, never played it before, hopefully it's as exciting as Skyrim was.
hope you enjoy it!
I literally got oblivion sometime in 2010 and I just beat the main story line 2 days ago for the 1st time and never looked it up. If there's one thing skyrim needs that oblivion has it making your own spells.
Truncheon of Submission ! Bought in Anvil, it actually HEALS your target but depletes his stamina, so you can paralyze without killing !
I also love the troll combo Staff of Everscamp + Azura Star + Apotheosis Staff : basically, scamps perpetually respawn, allowing to constantly fill the Star, allowing to constantly refill Apotheosis. Fire from afar, the scamps can serve as blocking meatshield ! Not that effective, but somewhat funny.
But my fav weapons still is the standard one handed Glass Mace. So glossy, so icy !
Thank you for this list.
you're welcome man!
I like how your house is set out
"Schadowrend"? I have to admit, that amused me quite a bit. Thank you for making that typo.
The Quests to get the items are so nostalgic.
still playing to this day I love the game lol and Im doing a lets play on it right now actually!!!
This will ALWAYS be the best ES game! 🤓
I always get Dawn/Duskfang as soon as I can when starting a new game, because it is good and I can't be bothered to worry about maintenance.
I remember when my Ancient Akaviri Katana which was enchanted with damage health 30 pts got disintegrated by some Dremora, so I started slaughtering the entire plane of Oblivion with Shadowrend.
Been playing since 2006 aaallllll the way to 2019!! ❤❤
was hoping u could upload a video of the best light armor, and the best heavy armor. I am needing to find good strong sneaking light armor. please reply
hmm... thats a tough one I never played as a thief. maybe you are best of enchanting a set of armour. I would always take a set of casual clothes, a ring and an amulet and enchant all of them with a chameleon enchantment to get 100% invisible. But maybe this makes the whole game a little bit too easy ;-)
MrWIWARD: where can I get chameleon?
This is where it gets a little bit complicated. You need an illusion skill of 50 i think (Just level up by spamming any low level illusion spell) to be able to use low end chameleon spells. And then you need 5 large soul gems to enchant your items to get 20% chameleon on each. To enchant them you need access to an enchantment altar, which in the original game can only be found at the arcane university. Which means you need to join the mages guild an get all the recomendations etc.
MrWIWARD: is there a place where I can buy or specifically find chameleon armor? I already have the gauntlets from the khajit in the dark brotherhood, but I want more.
You can get the ring of kajiiti by completing the daedric quest for meridia, it has 35% chameleon other than that I'm not aware of any item as effective
Still a great game I enjoy playing it daily
wow dude, you just have the best weapon in the game. i never had an unique weapon where i played tthe game...
I'm Playing in 2017.. love this game, Thanks for the Video ... Great Weapons and Appreciate showing us gameplay with the Weapon. Nice job
appreciate your comments!
Do you still stream Videos ? ESO or Skyrim
Honestly with my crusader armor and Umbra I just be pullin up in Imperial City punching random guards just to cause a massacre
I know it's not crazy rare, but Duskfang is still one of my favorite videogame weapons
What is the sword in your thumbnail? Is that from a different game? Because I know it’s not one of the swords you showed in the video.
I'm really sad that you stopped to produce content, but i think university is most important then some oblivion videos, good luck about degree!
Shadowrend is an axe if you have a higher blunt stat when you go to the tree of shades, and a sword if you have a higher blade stat or blade and blunt are at the same level
Where do u find drum roll ?
During the main shivering isles quest.
You can find it on the ship that's made of calipers and tongs. Once it's finished you head inside the captain's lodge and there it is behind his seat.
Next to the golden galleon
@@Each-Uisge nah next to my lovley nutters
No Patrick drumroll isn’t an instrument
Amazing weapon designs on Oblivion!
Sad that in Skyrim they were just lazy and were like "lets just not make things badass looking!"
There are plenty of interesting weapons in Skyrim. Miraak's sword, Dragonbone Warhammer, wabajack.
Just go to rindir's staffs in the imperial city market district and buy the apotheosis staff for 6000 gold.
Dawnfang is by far my favourite sword.
best weapon is umbra and just not start/complete the quest cause it dosent have any weight to it until you finish the quest.
If you go to Vindasel and don´t kill umbra, move back to the shrine of Clavicus Vile and just finish the quest without a reward, you can go back to umbra later, kill her and get her sword, now it will be weightless quest item.
Umbrais not the best weapon, far from it
The best weapon imo honestly is either the crimson evicserator or the dragonsword of lainlyn
Best weapon i have found is Rockshatter. When i maxed out everything, did all quests plus dlcs, i went 100% chameleon and found Rockshatter killed enemies of all types faster than everything else, including custom daedric, shadowrendm goldbrand, dawnfang, etc. that shock plus 35% weakness to shock is the winner by a country mile. Plus it’s weightless until you return it for the quest.
Paul B You can enchant your own weakness weapon which is a hell of alot stronger then Rockshatter.
Still playing in 2018!
Nice video
But theres one weapon that i dont understand why you didnt put on the list
The crimson eviscerator:
Its stats are godlike
-absorb strengh 20 for 5 seconds on strike
-damage health 35 points on strike
-damage magicka 35 points on strike
-weakness 35% to poison on strike
Its aquisition is a little weird though
seeing as its from the vile lair dlc I found that too few people actually have access to it
MrWIWARD i see
Also the acquisition of the stronguest version is kinda stupid
actually in my opinion the best blade in the game is 'The Curse of The Ayleids' its a one of a kind weapon appearing as an elven shortsword / mace (depending on your higher lvl blunt or blade and if equal gives blade) this unique weapon has a broken enchantment where it drains health 100 pts for 1 second and light 100ft 2 seconds and has 45 uses
it is supposed to be available at lvl 30+ (no DLC) but is available at any lvl, kinda, is was never properly put in game and was supposed to have more than 1 second of 100 health drain but this doesn't matter because you cant even get it on PC properly the only way to obtain it is at magic place in imperial city but it isn't there you have to make it (enchant it) yourself but you can get same effects as the blade does with the same charge by using the black soul gem or grand soul gem (grand soul filled) this is probably another error that you can make it yourself and it took me 3 months to find it in pc's console (thats how I discovered it) and couldn't find it anywhere online, also why making it is better is you get same effects without having to look for forever in console and is make able on xbox and ps3
cheap instakills on anything with health at or lower than 100 though doesn't work on magic immune creatures like that guy with the 'grey agis' at arena' unless you can break his shield or disarm him
never heard of that. Couldn't find any information about it online
thats not surprising really, as i didnt either. everything I found out was on pc using console commands though when I tried to get it on my highest leveled serious character i couldn't find it again in the console (I just assumed i wasn't looking hard enough and moved on)
also i dont think the sword is that important or special anyway because of its basic pre-used weapon skin and that you can get same effect with grand soul gem at Arcane University Cryonasium (FuckSpelling) and that you cant display it because player.placeatme command makes it look like a purple rectangle and if you pick it up and drop it, drag it or TK it and sometimes even sell it your game will crash or freeze... also it's value is -1250 (at least with my mercantile lvl)i know because every time i sold it it took away that muck money from my character before it froze... or crashed
PS: if you can find out anything tell me, I would love to know (I dont use mods other than that oblivion unofficial patch if that helps)
Did not know Oblivion had that many weapons and more.
Sweet. No maces or axes on the list though. Dawn/Duskfang is my favourite.
you should make a video for the locations and where you find them
maybe at some point. But in the meantime you can find some further information on the items in the description
4:26 AHAHAHAHA!! You pick up Umbra and stuff just goes flying! That's why this is one of my favorite games of all time. It's not only extremely good, but the glitches and voice acting make it hilarious as well.
If I could have 2 weapons from oblivion directly into skyrim it'd definitely be the staff of sheogorath and shadowrend
I'm playing Oblivion in 2017. The game is timeless.....
How??? it crashes on me when i start! i cant even play it... whats your secret?
Nothing secret. I play the game on Steam without issue on a 3 year old PC tho I have upgraded the gpu to a GTX-1080.
Actual strongest: *the mace of doom*
To get it go to the frostcrag spire house then save in the living area (the place with the plants)
Save there then go and uninstall the dlc (you can reinstall afterwards). When you load your save you’ll be in a black void seeing the inside of a house. Move towards the house and eventually you’ll get teleported inside of it. Leave the house and you’ll be in the testing area.
The mace is in the middle of the village. It does over 200 thousand damage and uses blade instead of blunt skill unlike most maces. You can leave the area by fast traveling.
I hope Bethesda will listen to the negative feedback from Skyrim and Fallout 4 and make their next Elder Scrolls game similar to Oblivion.
One of the few good videos about this topic, im sad that there was no dragon sword of lainlyn, since its one of the most badass, or even the crimson eviscerator
The only real problem in this is that there werent any bows, and even though archery is pretty weak in this game, hatreds( whatever) is really good, and with the right arrows you can kick ass, not to mention that dawnfang superior is better than goldbrand
I always forget how friggin good Oblivion is.
I can't wait to play this again
Sorry, you missed entirely the best weapon in the game. Mehrune's Razor
Im going through some mendela effect stuff i could have sworn there was like a easter egg in this game where you get the biggoron sword from ocarina of time
Just started new game OCT. 2023
Dawnfang/Dustfang is the strongest/best op weapon in the game if you get it after lvl 30+ because its stats are leveled.
Nice video man i loved it :> btw can i know ur major skills?
Blade, Marksman, light armor, heavy armor, destruction, Conjuration, athleticism
still playing 2017. this game is a god.
I'm surprised Nerveshatter didn't make this list seeing as it's one of the highest per hit damage weapons in the game.
Might be right there. It would at least deserve an honorable mention. Maby could have put a couple more blunt weapons in there in general but I almost exclusively use bladed weapons on all of my characters
It kind of sucks that the majority of enchanted weapons are blade. I love blunt but there's barely any interesting enchanted weapons you can find. Two handed weapons get even worse treatment.
Yeah You've got a point there. I actually prefer Skyrim's take on the whole blunt/blade and one-handed/ two-handed weapons thing. There is little reason to chose blunt skill over blade skill in Oblivion
Yeah I agree as well. I also like how Skyrim gave maces(or hammers), axes and swords different attack speeds and stagger rates, it gives the player more choice in the way they play.
+Mr. Spookalon of Boneville They have different attack speeds in every tes game.
The only named weapon I ever use is the Honorblade of Chorrol, because it's strong, can harm ghosts, and weighs nothing. In the rare case that I need something that hits harder, I keep Azura's Star, and a Glass Longsword, enchanted with a two-second soul-trap, and equal parts 2-second Shock, Flame, and Frost damage (for the maximum amount of damage a Grand Soul will allow). With this I can kill almost anything within a couple hits, and I don't need it to have a bunch of uses, because I'm constantly re-filling it every time I kill anything with a white soul.
this is of course a good strategy. You might even want to consider using a daedric longsword and enchant it, since glass weapons are only the third strongest tier. I do have to say however that I prefer unique weapons to custom ones. They just appeal to me more.
I know that sword, it's actually quite good. But the fighters stronghold dlc isn't very common and I prefered to just include arms that most players can get, so I only include the two big dlcs: knights of the nine and shivering isles
Goldbrand all the way.
Rockshatter was always a classic for me
I almost feel dead for its level system that we see bandit with full dadera armor at lvl 25
Exactly the reason why I can't play Oblivion in high-levels. So "conservative" I am of my weapon charges. Even 2-3 enemies are sometimes enough to drain certain weapons.
whos still playing in 2077?
Ha
I bought this game yesterday ready to pay with my blood
I remember my best sword ended up being a madness one with damage health and soul trap.
Where can one find these weapons? I wonder if any of them is from the original crude game or from some specific expansion or mod. Thanks
Guilherme Taffarel Bergamin he included dlc weapons but I dont think that there are mod weapons included.
I respectfully disagree with this list. Based on effectiveness against enemies from the point of their availability until their replacement becomes available, here is my list.
Level 1
Blunt: Callibens Grim Retort (replaced by Mace of Molag Bal)
Blade: Honorblade (replaced by Goldbrand)
Bow: Frostwyrm (replaced by level 19 Hatreds Soul)
Level 15:
Ebony blade (especially effective against Spider Deadra)
Level 17
Blunt: Mace of Molag Bal
Level 19
Bow: Hatreds Soul
Blunt: Hatreds Heart
The damage speed enchantment on earlier versions of these weapons does not stun enemies for repeated sneak attacks.
Level 20
Blade: Goldbrand
--The end game (level 50) Blade specialist does fine carrying Ebony Blade and Goldbrand but must have Azura's Star and a soul trap spell to recharge frequently. These are good weapons for confrontational melee fighters.
--The end game Blunt user does best with sneak attacks, stunning enemies with a single hit from Hatreds Heart and then finishing them off with 6X sneak hits from a depleted Mace of Molag Bal, level 25 Rock Shatter, or a second, depleted, lvl 19 Hatreds Heart. Soul trapping may not be necessary--you can collect enough varla stones and filled soul gems to keep single hit Hatreds Heart going for a long long time. Soul trapping blunt weapons are also available in random loot.
--The end game bow user can do everything with two copies of Hatred's Soul and a quiver full of steel arrows, one bow stays enchanted for the stun shot, and one stays depleted for the followup 3x sneak hits.
--You can argue that Umbra is better than Honorblade (it is more powerful) but Honorblade is easier to get, easier to repair, and can be traded in for the Escutcheon of Chorrol after it is replaced. Umbra is, however, a must-have weapon for Conjurer's who want to safely trap souls for recharging their staves while their pets are doing the killing for them.
Experience playing at high difficulty shows that Volendrung does not replace Callibens Grim Retort because it is slow and two-handed--so there are no 6x sneak attacks, shields cannot be used with it, its base damage is only Dwarven when Elven warhammers are already in the game. The paralyze effect does not offset the drawbacks.
Good points there, someone knows his stuff
Tbh Umbra Should Be First Its The Strongest In The Game Its Self No DLC
I would disagree with you on that. As you see Goldbrand is my #2, so essentially my #1 from the original game. It is only 3 DMG points short of Umbra's base DMG but its enchantment adds 22 points of fire DMG which makes it much more effective in most circumstances. It also has 3000 magical charge compared to Umbra's 2500. The 120 sec soul trap enchantment is overkill and has little practical use
True Point Btw Umbra U Can Get Legit At Lvl 1 But Goldbrand Boethia's Shrine To Long Hey Another Question (Iv Got Frostwyrm) I'm In To Bows I Needs Fast And Easy Bow To Get Please Reply (Don't Include: Hatred,Dynamo And Infliction)
Itz Kruizy That's a tough one to be honest. There aren't really any unique bows that are particularly effective, besides the fact that Archery is a pretty badly balanced skill in Oblivion. I like to just take the most effective bow I can get (Daedric or Perfect Amber for example) an enchant it using a sigil stone. Add fire, frost or damage health and thats as effective as your bows will get in oblivion
+MrWIWARD Seen That Stuff And I Agree Oblivion Is Not A Archer Based Game Skyrim Would Be Rather Better For Eg: Glass Bow Of Staggered Prince Zephyr Bow And Firineils End (Can't Spell) And Yea But I'm Looking For A Wilderness Bow Where U Can Find It Its Hard -_-
+Itz Kruizy And also remember arrows with magic effects on them will also help if you can find them
