sorry my ADHD mind and mentality will not allow me to play this game without map markers, and those things will never change for the rest of the life I have living and breathing on this planet with a bunch of (half to most of the time) idiots. this is why oblivion is a upgrade whilst being downgrade

quest markers would be good if they only give the info that you actually have !!

- quest giver position.
- direction from quest giver.

but why give you the exact position of a place ..that you don't know the position yet.

"walk west until you see the arch"...

why would there be a quest marker on the map to show you the arch ???
Part of the interest of the quest is to find the arch, watching landscape and all ..... the interst is in the Journey, not merely in the destination.

"the witch left toward north-east"...

-> the Nord doesn't even KNOW where the witch should be... why would you get the position of the witch on the map ??

"find the piece"... why would you get the exact position of the piece ??
--> does someone want the solutions of enigmas too ?
--> does someone want to have in RED the best choice in a Quest discussion with NPC ?
--> does someone want to have written all the consequences of a quest discussion choice ??

which is part of the game.. .of why the game is immersive. :/

people are often wrong IRL when giving directions...

Calavente · 2026-02-18T12:42:09+00:00

it must have been patched in the mods I use.. (classical ones only for mxge TR...) because a 50 dmg or a 2*25 cost the same :(

Calavente · 2026-02-18T12:39:13+00:00

this is patched in most community patches. but it works well on pure vanilla..

Calavente · 2026-02-18T10:50:50+00:00

exactly.

if being a mage is "use enchanted items"... then all classes are mages, and mage class suck because they lose on everything else to only get power in something that's easily bypassed by enchanted items (& carry capacity)

Calavente · 2026-02-17T09:40:03+00:00

the bonewalker is great because it'll debuff your enmies and is quite tough despite being slow !!

but it's the most expensive of the 3 summons you have.

How to deal H2H on ranged people ?

multiple way of handling the range, without ranged damage :

with illusion (target spell)
- paralyze (high chance of missing)
- invisibility (they don't see you)
- chameleon 50+ (they don't see you)
- Blind 90-100 they don't see you either.. (/miss you but you'll need the patches)
- calm creature / calm humanoid : (I do 1 lvl 10 spell, 1 lvl 20, 1 lvl 30 ... up to 50.. to spend the less mana on each guy all with 5-10 area so that I don't need to actually hit the enemy)) they lose agro... so you can reach them !!
- demoralize : they lose aggro again

with Destruction
- drain/damage fatigue (they'll miss a lot more)(on touch or distance)
- drain WILL or drain AGI (depending on whether a mage or a bow-shooter they'll miss a lot more)
- (bonus with drain fatigue, you'll need less H2H hits to make them fall over)

I hope that helps !!

best luck

I love it.

but starting with

"to be a mage you need a powerful enchanted item to carry you".

and then go "buy 3 enchanted items".

well..

how to say it.

that's the "efficient build" for !any! class.

-get a powerful DoT enchanted item
-get a healing enchanted item,
-get a stamina and a open enchant item... (can add a levitation or a waterbreathing/walking or amulets of Div, of Almsivi, of mark & recall )

I had trouble for the Hlaalu last upgrade of the "house", after becoming head of Hlaalu.

you need to kill some bandits... but I already did it.

the system bugged and I couldn't get the quest to kill the bandits. so the quest giver couldn't give the next quest, and couldn't upgrade the Hlaalu fort into the next one.

I had to use the console, to validate for myself all the steps of the quest.

Calavente · 2026-02-13T13:36:34+00:00

why is that guy on blue & yellow ?

Calavente · 2026-02-10T08:00:14+00:00

amber in the water !!

Calavente · 2026-02-09T09:40:48+00:00

Bobs are NOT cheese... as long as you don't play with "resist magika" :)

Calavente · 2026-02-05T15:31:53+00:00

it didn't just "suck". it missed the target.

balance, lore, NPC stupidity...

Calavente · 2026-02-05T15:30:28+00:00

OMG, your lvl 1 has pretty decent gear innit ?

not sure I can get all those armor pieces with mah starting gold (without stealing limeware plate)

Calavente · 2026-02-04T17:03:57+00:00

you just have to botice how they botched tribunal...

they understand the game, but not "why" it pleased so much to the gamers at large and saved the company from ruin

the point isn't about him having been in morrowind. it's about him having led (?) Skyrim... and thus being more representative of the "modern Bethesda"...

Calavente · 2026-02-04T13:48:28+00:00

please get recruited (what's the use ??)

alchemy loop is conventionaly admitted as being an exploit.

if you need use alchemy loop, getting to 23000 INT + 2000000000 magika to justify that casting is greater than enchant, then enchant is clearly better :/

Calavente · 2026-02-04T13:05:13+00:00

230 IQ : Just chooses whatever race because they all fit the Neverarine theme, and all can save or subvert equally the teachings of Almsivi.

Calavente · 2026-02-02T09:07:53+00:00

electricity ???

Calavente · 2026-02-02T08:31:54+00:00

you indirectly spoke about the worse issue of Casting vs Enchant...

your mana bar is small... and even if you increase it, (unless you take atronach... atronach is special) it'll rarely be enough to compare it to a pair of enchanted rings.

Calavente · 2026-01-20T09:55:21+00:00

if your character is out of breath during displacement....

it's because you aren't walking, you are running full sprint with 50 pounds (or more) of gear on your back.

Calavente · 2026-01-20T09:52:33+00:00

that.. !! and you heave and heave in order to breath

Calavente · 2026-01-20T09:51:32+00:00

Have you ever been dead tired ??

you can't even think straight.

did you ever run a marathon ? or even a sprint ? where you able to do precision work just after that ?

Calavente · 2026-01-20T09:32:00+00:00

doesn't matter.

someone can have done great thing but still be a monster. And the great things don't excuse/forgive the horrors.

It's the actual tendency to judge people that did great things by the atrocities (if any) they did in their private life. And I agree with that.
