    Well I've barely started and I've broken the game. At level six I started pickpocketing people. I gained four or five levels this way (along with a mountain of keys, bits of food, jewellery, and pocket lint) and advanced the pickpocketing tree up to cutpurse (+50% chance of stealing gold) and the 40% bonus for pickpocketing all items.

    Then I realized that money you pay to trainers appears in their inventory.

    1. Train archery with Faedal in Riverwood. (+1 Archery)
    2. Pickpocket money back from him. (+1 Pickpocketing)
    3. Go to 1. (x5)
    4. Level up.
    5. Go to 1. (ad nauseum)

    Limitation for this I foresee are the trainer's skill limit, the fact that only 500 gold stays in his inventory at one time (Though what this means is that archery level 51 costs 10 gold, 52 20, etc.), and, I would think, eventually stealing 500 gold would not be enough to instantly raise pickpocketing +1.

    Always ways to cheese early levels, soon enough that X5 won't level you up and you will have to be on your way.

    Equip that special dagger you got from that witch at Orphan Rock and attack the roots with it.


    In other news, I got the second word of the Frost Breath shout. Woo!
    ..it's still not all that good, though. I'm sticking with Unrelenting Force.

    Terrible graphics, Echo. How can you stand it without clawing your eyes out? :D

    I actually just downloaded a blood splatter retexture, because to be fair it looks a bit like the dragon got jello on his snout. :P

    I'll let you know when that happens. Right now pickpocketing is at 64 and raising every time I steal my money back, and archery is at 55.

    I'd figure it would stop before that, yeah do let us know when it caps out. I know for sure in most skills that +5 didn't level me up from I think the early teens.

    I discovered that you could do this... on the pickpocketing trainer. :P

    And yeah, new thread time.

    So apparently if you choose "Ultra" settings in the launcher it sets it to like, medium/High settings. I had to go in there manually and set everything to ultra

    Soooo

    I have these unavailable shouts (kyne, fire) and I've killed several dragons that have failed to unlock anything. What gives?

    I think you need to manually select which one to unlock and then unlock it with a soul

    Does reverse pickpocket also level up pick pocketing?

    I just found everyone's favourite running easter egg:
    M'aiq the Liar, he was near the shrine to Azura. Said something about liking the new way bounties are tracked, and about preferring to walk than take carriages, then told me he had nothing more to say.

    Also on this quest:
    What happens at the conclusion? NPCs were talking over each other (annoying enough that I've now put subs on) so I missed what she said.

    I was keeping an eye out for that myself, good to know!

    Alright, back into the game!
    I've got a leftover dragon soul so I guess I'll track down a word of power next. I hope I'll find a shout that we haven't seen already.

    In my quest to get to 100 smithing, I visited multiple blacksmiths to buy more Iron to make Iron Daggers. All of the main towns I went to for purchasing, I got attacked by dragons. Since the blacksmiths tend to be outside, while I am now swimming in dragon souls, I am quite a few blacksmiths short in towns. :(

    I gave my Staff of Zombies to my companion and as soon as we killed a guy she decided to use it as a machinegun on his corpse, depleting the staff

    Is there any way to tell them not to use certain items I give them? I just need them to carry all this crap for me

    One thing I was wondering. I am going through the game with a wizard / one handed build and was wondering if that would not gimp my character much as I have to spread my level up bonuses (bonii ?) pretty thin this way between stamina/health/magic. And did not find much in the perks that would support this. It seems going one handed, they either want you to dual wield or have a shield up.
