mrpain Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Just discovered an Orc stronghold. As an Orc, with my Orcish armour, I fit right in the chief welcomed me and we greeted eachother with a brawl (with me as the victor, of course!), now to mine some ebony for my next set of armour. I f*cking love that place! It's the one right outside Markarth there right? I saw a dragon flying around the mountains nearby there once, it probably didn't attack because it did not wanted to face a f*ckload of Orcs. Gharbash is a terrific follower. I now have 10 characters - one of each race. Mother of god... How the hell did you find the time to do so?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwalker83 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 That quest where you kill the guy's soul in the star (forget the guys name int begins with an M) is so stupid. The three monsters protecting him are tougher than the guy you need to kill to complete the quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOSEPH X Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 I now have 10 characters - one of each race. Mother of god... How the hell did you find the time to do so?! Six of them are in Riverwood and are level 1 or 2. My Nord and Altmer are story complete and are cloud saves waiting for DLC. They are lvl 48 and 52. I'm currently playing thru the Dark Brotherhood and getting 16 Daedric artifacts with my Dunmer who is level 18, and alternating that with a level 22 Bosmer. I find the time by neglecting sh*t that needs doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The three monsters protecting him are tougher than the guy you need to kill to complete the quest. That actually makes sense. Why would he need protection if he was stronger than them?

Happens to me a lot I'd be on my way to do a quest and discover a cave or something along the way... and, well, I can't possibly leave a cave unchecked can I? I f*cking love that place! It's the one right outside Markarth there right? I saw a dragon flying around the mountains nearby there once, it probably didn't attack because it did not wanted to face a f*ckload of Orcs. Gharbash is a terrific follower. I think there are a few Orc strongholds, this one was on the very eastern side of the map, next to the Gloombound mine. I'll be sure to find the other strongholds though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwalker83 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Damn, those Frostbite spiders outside the Nightcaller temple are a pain! Although, I mnage to beat them by squeezing on to a narrow ledge and watching one of them fall off the side, after that I just picked them off one at time because the opening was so narrow they couldn't all fit at the same time.

I try to give them the best fights of their life when I encounter them. They're not gonna die just by two arrows in the knee, no! I would usually stripped down to lower level equipment and beat them with my own fists. (Paws, whatever.) I remembered the time with my first character, a Breton, encountered an Old Orc at level 13 or so. I accepted his challenge and damn, he was sure tough. Spent like twenty minutes trying to finish him off in the woods in The Rift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Garcia Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I finally stumbled onto the Labyrinthian place. How epic is it, anybody? And then I entered what I thought was an Orc stronghold, but was attacked by draugr. I thought the arc symbol that looks like a hut symbolized orc strongholds. Could've sworn I read that somewhere.

GTA3Rockstar Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 How many people can you marry at one time? Only one. No Mormons in Skyrim. Got it wrong. That would be Polygamy. Haven't played in awhile, kind of lost interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mati Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 No likey sorry! You know, I always listen to the WHOLE theme before I play. Hehe. And I just got in from work and I'm gonna fire it up. I actually do the very same thing Meh, I like both if the themes. The one I posted has that Morrowind feel to it, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinski Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) I finally stumbled onto the Labyrinthian place. How epic is it, anybody? Awesome as all hell. I went there for one of the quests in the Winterhold College of Witchcraft and Wizardry questline. The part where you step through a gate only for it to slam behind you and a small army of skeletons and a skeleton dragon to rise out of the dirt was rad. I can't help but think it failed to meet the complexity its name implies though, it's pretty linear. I left thinking there must be more than the one dungeon there unrelated to the College, because it was so underwhelming.

Cheat Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Trust me - I'd played the game before, clearing caves and fighting the draugr, and whatnot, but all I really had to do was complete the whole beginning thing, and wow...

Mr.Mister Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I'm a level 10 khajit named steve french. I use arrow/bow and one handed weapons. I'm also in the thieves guild.

At one time Mormons practiced polygamy, Rocky. Exactly, one time before and aren't associated with Polygamy anymore. Still the term for multiple spouses.

When you get married you get 100 gold every couple of days, the lover's bonus where your skills improve faster when you sleep in the same bed as them at the same time. And if you have a house in a big town you can move them in and he/she'll open up a shop. Visit the priest in the Temple of Mara in Riften, if he's not there he'll be in the Bee and Barb. He'll give you an Amulet of Mara, which you need to wear to start the dialogue with your prospective spouse. You have to gain the favour of someone before they will react to the amulet, which is normally a small quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiteso Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Anyone know much about getting the house in Riften? I've done that Skooma quest, can I just keep doing the Jarl's bandit quests now? Or do I have to do the quests where I help the townfolk? Riften's a nice town in terms of appearance and atmosphere... shame it's tainted by all the thievery goin' on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
