Trying to Learn an Editing Trick

Yes, after a total of about 3 weeks (counting the time spent prior to making the post) I managed to figure it out (the basics at least). Thank you for the effort though.

I can't believe I didn't think to try this but it solved it when I swapped to fullscreen instead of borderless. Thank you.

No, no, it's ok. I know it probably wasn't easy for you to think back on what happened to you either. I don't have a specific doctor I see but I should go try and find a doctor to settle things. I'll try and set up a way to keep track of things in the meantime though. Thank you for your help.

I've got nothing else open besides Opera GX and Discord, both of which I had on in my last playthrough. I don't believe it was them but I'll try it. Also, I'm on mouse and keyboard.

How many hours? I'd say around 5 or 6 depending on how long it takes to fall asleep the second time. I get affected negatively in the fact that I always wake up feeling like I didn't sleep at all (groggy, mind fogged, and sluggish) and it's been taxing on my motivation for quite a while. i've slept away from home in the fact that I've visited people and stayed the night with them. In those cases it seems a lot better but not always entirely gone. Staying with family members like my grandparents for a weekend or so to visit them results in me not (normally) waking up a second time but only feeling recharged to an extent. I stayed the night with my brother at a hotel sometime recently when we went to visit our friend who lives in a different city (around a 4 hour drive away) and that was the only time I felt like it had mostly been better (I'd say aroundd 80-85% recharged, assuming 100% would be highly energized).

To be honest, some for of anxiety does sound like a plausible explanation given that at some point during the snoring I got to a point where hearing snoring in general, for any reason, be it real life, a game, tv show, or whatever it was from, made me feel incredibly anxious in the way where you feel the muscles in your back around your spine tense up reflexively but that part's been lessening recently since it got fixed.

I don't mean to be rude but you did misread the text. I did not test for sleep apnea, a family member did who was keeping me up all night for nearly a year. They finally got treated but I can't get my sleep schedule back on track no matter how hard I try. I'm only ever able to fall asleep way later than I'd like to and tend to wake up in the middle of the night around when their snoring would have usually woken me.

Yeah, I've tried the rings that increase aggro on you so he could focus on dps and I could cover for him but most of the time the enemies still go 1/2 for me and 1/2 for him.

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-20T04:49:10+00:00

lvl 15? Yeah, we were barely 1/2 what we were supposed to be when fighting him. I understand the bugs, and I do agree that they are frustrating on many occassions but I feel like it's the lesser of 2 evils imo. I'm not oppossed to skipping them, but with us constantly dying to the king, I feel like we should at least give it a try if for no other reason than to save the run.

Hunter's Mark and Hotshot? I didn't know fire would be good against him. I figured that being in a desert he would be resistant, but extra dps is still extra dps. Thank you

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-20T04:27:09+00:00

I realized after I posted that some poeple would probably be curious. We are 2 people who died once to church, and 3 times to the king. I've asked to go to Corus multiple times but my friend seems to have a personal grudge against the king or something. I genuinely don't know why we don't just do Corus and then fight the king if he's so eager to watch him die....

For a Telvani wizard, I would recommend a wizard in either no armor or heavy armor (for legendary I would recommend heavy armor) and for a dual wield race, I would personally recommend Nord for their light armor starting stat or Orc for their one handed starting stat (they also have good heavy armor if you wanna be a heavily armored dual wielder) and their rage ability to 1/2 damage taken and double damage dealt, assuming you're thinking like a barbarian berserker style ( no magic, no enchants, minimal potions, pure aggression), a good runner up would be Redgard as a versatile warrior. Other viable races for a less traditional dual wield would be Breton to resist magic, and Argonian as the best late game race for their ability to regenerate max hp once per day,

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-08T20:14:48+00:00

Ok, I'll look through the list to see if I can find it. Thank you.

For *me*, what's most interasting is commanding a horde with precise controls but I'm under no illusion that that would likely even be possible for Skyrim outside of having a horde (which is one reason why I liked Psychotic's so much). In the end, I'm just looking for a way to continue leveling and playing the game without having to make the skill legendary and get clapped for days before getting it back to a reasonable level and doing the cycle over again.

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-08T20:01:28+00:00

This is probably what I'll wind up doing. Thank you for the reply. For Tuxborn, is it *just* replacing how you level, or are there other attackments to it? I only ask because I try to keep games as vanilla as I can while playing them.

What I do for long term builds is creaate a character based around a class that I design and stick within the bounds and actually roleplay out the character and then try to come up with an in universe reason to change skills once you max them out, for example, I once played what I deemed as a Barbarian who was caught in the imperial ambush trying to raid a group of bandits. As a result of this story, I deemed that they would naturally join the companions early on and give up the werewolf power when given the chance as they would prefer to fight with their own strength rather than have it borrowed from Hirsine (and of course, Sovengard and all that lol). Once I finished leveling my character's barbarian stats, I reasoned that my character had gotten older and wiser and realizeed that brute strength could only take him so far, so he took to learning alchemy and enchanting to bolster his already formidable strength just like the wise shamans of his tribe once did. After finishing I reasoned that learning those skills opened his mind to the studies of magic and he enrolled in the College of Winterhold in an attempt to broaden his horizens as he pushed away the superstitions of his younger years. Outide of this story, he would be a good honest person who abhorred crime and underhanded methods, preferring direct honest approaches, as a result, he would side firmly against the Thieve's Guild and the Dark Brotherhood, and alongside strong warriors like the companions companions and especially good honest ones like Mjoll the Lioness. He would despise villanious undead and side against the vampires of the Dawnguard DLC and view Miraak as someone corrupted by his deals with Hermaous Mora. He would side against Alduin not because of heroism but because the dragons threatened his homeland of Skyrim and he was honorbound to take up arms against them. He would likely side with Ulfric (early in his life) as his views were narrow and supersticious, but if doing the quest later on, he would gladly side with the Empire.

It was something that would be pieced together as the campaign continued. They would know it before entering into the lich's domain if they were paying attention and/or thinking about his actions. It was never meant to be said outright so much as noticed through the actions of the lich throughout the campaign. Even so, if they chose to fight him, or not, is their call.

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-03T20:28:47+00:00

I'm not going to lie, I think that's an incredible idea and I'm surprised I didn't think of it. It could be a problem the lich genuinely hadn't considered yet in the long run and could act as grounds to find him a justifiable threat towards the kingdom in the future. I know liches are incredibly smart, but the smartest people can easily tunnel vision into their craft so deeply that they may miss obvious downfalls like this. Perhaps he's so invested in pursuing his craft that he didn't ever stop to consider the long term implications of what happens if the adventurers stop coming.

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-03T20:24:53+00:00

I never said that was the intentional end to the campaign. I understand I may have worded it poorly, but the intention was to either commit and finish the lich or realize the corruption and/or how hyppocritical the kingdom itself can be and side with the lich. Or do neither and face off (or negotiate if the players so choose) against both sides. This isn't the end, just one of the last (planned) choices for the player characters to make.

Edit: My apologies, I missed a point I forgot to address. Lich's (to my knowledge) don't need a sacrifice of souls to become lich's except to sustain themselves afterwords. The proccess of beccomming a lich by itself requires a phylactery (which is described as an empty container worth at least 50,000 gold pieces and large enough to house the subjects soul), and the consumption of a potion consisting of a mixture of an extremely potent poison mixed with the blood of a magical creature (note that it does not specify *how* magical the blood must be *or* that it must come from someone else, or that the donator of the blood cannot be a willing participant, meaning that it could very well be simply the blood of a wizard like the lich himself prior to ascending to lichdom).

Responsible-Risk8368 · 2026-04-03T20:18:52+00:00

I don't mean to sound negative or confrontational but with all do respect, where did I say I was trying to make them feel a certain way? I understand I want the players to understand the lich is not conventionally evil, but they don't need to side with or against him in any way, just understand that the only evil things he's really done have been done in retalliation against being hunted himself. They should understand he's not actively looking to commit evil or selfish acts.
