I may be the last person to notice this but the Skyrim werewolf  is the exact same as  the Blood Omen wolf form  I'm too lazy to make a gif of the attacks, but they're also the same! edit: also sorry for my lovely gif making skills but i just had to get it out of my system

Mr. Crow posted:I mean how many ways can a bipedal creature run with arms and legs, it's not exactly unique to blood omen.... Yeah that sounds plausible. Really though it was the attack animations that caught my eye.  Again, apologies for my sub par gif making skills. It might be easier to tell from watching a video like this one (at around 2:08) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXqdB2hbyH4&t=128s. I mean, the way it swings its arms, the long fur mane, the coloring, and the super thin build all look exactly like the Skyrim werewolf form.

So I'm having this weird issue with Ordinator and Summermyst. Ord has the rad resto perk False Light, which makes the rad Heal enchant do damage to enemies. But when I combine Heal with the Power Surge enchant and False Light, PS won't proc on anyone except followers. I've even hosed around with things to get a 4000% chance to proc and it just won't do it. With PS + a damage/utility enchant it works fine, even with False Light, but something about the perk changing the way Heal functions fucks up PS unless I remove the perk. Any ideas? Also you should add the argonian raptor feet mod to the OP because it's very important. edit: ugh. Upon further testing, with the False Light perk and any combo of Heal and a damaging or utility enchant, the damage/utility enchant is totally backwards. Heal + Lingering Fire causes the lingering fire to heal bad guys

Does anyone know if there's a way to make lights like fires and candlelight and stuff produce more light? I have my nights set to really dark, but fires, while bright enough to see from far away, don't produce any light past a 2ft radius. It would be really fine if I could navigate to a light source without hitting a rock or falling off a cliff or whatever.

Lunchmeat Larry posted:What are some fun Ordinator builds? I've mostly played with SPERG before now, usually magic-heavy, so I was thinking sword and board with heavy armour and Thunderchild shouts but at a quick glance the perks don't look too exciting so all of a sudden im thinking of adding some sneaking and ranged abilities and we all know where this is going tl;dr: Resto +Alt + Ench spell sword. Dumping stats into Magicka if you're a badass like me. Non-Destruction damage spell sword. So first, the most important parts of the build are having CCO, Summermyst, and Apocalypse (and the raptor feet and BAT mods if you play an argonian, which you totally should, and you should also have all different colors on your argonians face and have Rainbow somewhere in his or her name.) Dumping all stats into magicka makes your spells take care of all offense and defense for you. Focus on getting the Tree Rings and Ocato's Recital spells, the Spirit Tutors perk, and the enchants Heal and Power Surge above all else. Alteration is great for traveling spells and perks, and also your spell sword extras. Home Mythal + Dimension Door are awesome when you have a good permanent place for crafting and storage. You'll naturally want to get your spell sword perks, also the passive boots to magicka and resistances. Vancian Magic is interesting and still makes use of your magicka pool, even if it makes casting free. Restoration is your damage and survivability. False Light is what I use, and with that branch and the Spirit Tutor branch you'll have exceptionally powerful offensive spells. Heal Other will be the majority of your damage. Tree Rings is your major survivability so make sure to keep it up in long fights. The duration will increase in your magic effects menu, but it will always last 30 seconds. Enchanting is where you'll get buffs and Spellscribe. Make weapons with either Heal + nothing else, or Power Surge + anything but Heal. Reason being, False Light will let you deal out tons of damage from Heal (like 500k mid game), but will also reverse any other effect you combine with Heal. Heal + damage will turn into damage + healing on enemies, Heal + %effect will become damage + -%effect on enemies. Power Surge works best with Power of Knowledge and is typically what I use. Everything else is to taste. Power Surge plus Apotheosis is hilariously powerful when combined with the Crusader stuff on the branch to the right. Add Spellscribe with Repel Undead and you trivialize fights with undead by way of burning them to ash while they run from you. The DoTs and buffs/debuffs scale with resto, again making stat dumping into your blue bar a worthwhile choice. Alchemy is pretty op, and will make you a god, so avoid it. Stay safe, marsh friend.

Another fun thing with Ordinator and Apocalypse is again with Alteration. 1) Power of Knowledge lets you cast the spell in your offhand as a power for free once per day. 2) Power Surge can activate that power for free on hit. 3) The spell counts as a one handed spell! Which means it activates your spell blade perks from the Alteration tree! 4) Vancian Magic can boost those spells as well, if you use the damage metamagic. All this adds a bit of spell power to two-handed (which has the Voice of Rage and Ruin perk, adding a small chance to fire off your equipped power,) dual wielding, and even bow spell "blades" (archery has Lion's Arrow, which is the bow equivalent of Spellscribe.). You'd have to be closer than normal for bows to make the best use of those Alteration perks, but it might be incentive to break away from stealth archery, were you feeling brave (maybe Heavy Armor + Archery + buff auras from Illusion. Dropping flags, damage auras, Alteration debuffs, chilling with friends on the front line, coldly executing people with a crossbow.)

Yeah there's a lot of really fun tools in Ord that combine well with Summermyst, especially with Power Surge and the shout enchants. I was just messing around with a "puddle" build, picking up the Elemental Oil perks from alchemy, combining it with burning ground effect enchantments, a spellscribed spell like fireball or some other AoE to set off the oil, and you end up with a character that uses ground hazards to deal with many enemies at once. Just lots of things to try.

So I've been playing around with a new build and I feel like it's pretty fun. It's a staff and scroll artificer type, and it goes something like this: I'm running Ord, Summermyst, Argonian Raptor Feet, and Apocalypse, as it is meet and right so to do. I also have a mod called Magical College of Winterhold, which makes this build much easier, but some may find it OP or whatever. With this mod you get access to easy staff and scroll crafting, the former becoming available after you finish the college questline, or whenever you have the opportunity to go into the Archmage's Quarters. Also, the Arcanaeum has books that you can "study" to get a 20% buff to one school for a few hours, as well as a 20% buff to exp of one school. The exp buff ends up being lost on this build, because staves don't really increase magic skills in any appreciable way. Also I use CCO because I find it cool and fun, but it's up to you. Something else that changes how you play is Know Your Enemy if you use that mod, you end up needing to keep multiple staves on you to deal with some specific enemies, which I like for variety's sake. Everything else is to taste. Argonian racial tweaks, bigger argonian tails, and better argonian eyes are highly recommended. So with CCO I focused my main 3 skills on Enchanting, Smithing, and Alchemy, while my minor skills were Alteration, Lockpicking, and Speech. It seems like it would be just as OP as ever, but here's the catch: you a) don't enchant your own gear and b) avoid the entire right half of the enchanting tree. You find* and quest for your gear, and the build itself when played that way makes a lot of your quest rewards genuinely valuable. On a regular play-through I end up shelving most of my quest stuff because I can craft stuff that's useful instead. With this build I keep using those rewards because they're typically better than what I find (mostly.) The enchanting tree is where you get your scroll and staff buffs, which end up being huge. Charge Tap is a pretty good survival power, especially if you can get your hands on some items with the enchant that recharges your weapons to the point that they were equipped at. Said enchant also makes the Heart of the Sun perk less unwieldy, giving you a lot more standing power in long fights, as well as better flow between many smaller fights. Alchemy usually sends one way past the line between powerful and overpowered. Your gear will end up being pretty standard, being enchanted with one enchant, so potions end up being useful, not overpowering, not always necessary, but definitely helpful. It smooths out your damage and survivability, since your gear is probably not going to be what you're used to. I use Weightless to let me keep all of my ingredients on me, giving me some adaptability, and spending less time heading to my home to get the right stuff. I should also mention that I have a mod that adds a mortar and pestle as a miscellaneous item that acts as a traveling alchemy table. I just can't remember what it's called. I use smithing because I wear armor, but feel free to change it out for something else. Lockpicking has a branch on the left side that gives you the ability to gently caress with dwemer robuts, which is huge because they can be real bastards. Speech because you'll be spending a lot of money. A LOT of money. That's the other nice thing about the build; instead of ending up with a poo poo ton of bux you rarely go past a very small amount (20k or so,) which makes money worth something. I avoided the other branches because I don't feel like being a shoutist or a bard or some kind of animal wrangler. I took Alteration because the leftish branch of the tree has a weird gold-making passive, lockpicking tomfoolery, paralysis shenanigans, and Home Mythal/Dimension door, which makes traveling to the college (where you'll spend a lot of time) much easier. Worth mentioning is that I don't fast travel, so I guess if you do then you don't have to worry about it. Also the spell blade perks apply to your spells if you do one-handed and staff (which I do.) I took the Vancian Magic branch since I don't need magicka anyway, and more potency from the metamagic perk is good. So yeah, there's some wiggle room for skills, but the main idea is that you find your own gear, use the stuff you find, and generally stick to an artificer/crafty flavor of mage. There are, however, some cons... 1) It's high maintenance. You'll be doing a lot of crafting of scrolls, buying of scrolls, buying spell tomes to turn into scrolls (with the MCoW mod,) selling poo poo so that you can buy more scrolls, buying tomes and using them so that you can craft a staff with the spell you learn, and spending money on training to improve your staves and scrolls. 2) You are at the mercy of our capricious gods of random loot. Most stuff, like the sweet sweet weapon recharge and potion duration items are low level so they are found easily. Some other ones though can be elusive (good boots, hats, jewelry specifically.) Related to this is why I don't use cloth. Cloth gloves with enchants are few, same with boots. Cloth hats are a little more varied, with circlets having skill boosts and such. 3) This is where the * comes in. You suffer from chronic clown suit, unless you're like me and you cheat a bit. Say I find a pair of heavy gloves with 20% increased one-handed damage, but I specialize in cloth or light armor. I'll break it down into the actual enchant, find a pair of gloves that goes with my pretty outfit and skill/perk choice, and gently caress around with my 'player.setav enchanting' until I can craft something with the same magnitude. You do end up with things that don't normally drop (cloth gloves with good enchants,) but honestly I don't think anyone will lose sleep over it. 4) If you have the Know Your Enemy mod, the game slows way down. You enter your favorites menu a lot, and have to keep a lot of weight dedicated to multiple staves. Speaking of... 5) You'll want to increase your carry weight, since staves weigh 8 lb each. I use a mod that lowers the weight of scrolls to 0.1, but if you don't, those are 0.5 each. I think that's it. Again, feel free to deviate, maybe into focusing on actual magic schools and being a staff/scroll super-gal, or into stealth to be a sneaky demolition guy. Also, the SSE Monster mods can hurl even more obstacles at you, if you're feeling Brave. Rainbow Knight fucked around with this message at 18:22 on Mar 22, 2018 |

My understanding is that people in general hate the favorites menu, so I can understand that it's not for everyone. I mostly just like how it's changed combat around for me. To add to the build, I did some experimenting and it turns out that school skill level doesn't up the damage of staves, but it does help with scrolls. I didn't know that, and I'm sure it's been common knowledge for a good while now, but there may be someone out there who's just as oblivious as me

I just figured out that making, uh, impure(?) poisons with buffs on them last 15 times longer when used in conjunction with Ord's Lab Skeever perk. Do I need a lingering damage poison that lasts 22 minutes and fortifies the enemy's pickpocket skill? No*. Do I want a lingering damage poison that lasts 22 minutes and fortifies the enemy's pickpocket skill? Yes. I just need to figure out how to make it work in a practical way *Yes

I think the idea is that once you start progressing through the quest you obviously want to follow where it leads. You don't have anything keeping you from whipping out a spell while you're in the mine and trashing people on your way back to town, so you can derail the whole thing whenever you want. And with the Companions, you can just not drink dirty wolf blood, and the rationale could easily be, "okay so the companions are dorky werewolves so why would I hang out with them in the first place?" You peace out and that's it.

Average Bear posted:Is there a mod yet to make the game not a dull boring grey chore I don't know if you mean grey in a visual sense or not, but if you're just referring to visuals, a good lighting mod can cheer things up/spook things out pretty well. Additionally, there are some monster mods by this guy that are really good. For some reason, in my game at least, they like to spawn in big groups next to other big groups on top of vanilla groups, which makes roadside fights into a chaotic mess. Otherwise, they have interesting abilities, some can outright kill you even at higher levels, and others are just there to make you pull your hair out in frustration (imps.) I guess you just need to think of something that could be added to the game to make it more interesting, then go find the mod that does that. There are some mods that improve the vanilla game content, but honestly the best things are user created.

So I've been struggling trying to figure out how to make the perk Scorched Earth in Ordinator work with concentration spells. I've tried so many different things, and my brain just cannot grasp the concepts. I don't know if it's the perk, the hazard effect, the fire spells themselves, or what. I've looked at tutorials, and scoured the mod in CK to solve this, so if anyone could point me in a direction I'd really appreciate it. Also, someone mentioned Clockwork and the ghost not doing anything for them. I, uh, I closed my eyes the first time the ghost showed up  . That drat air horn shakes me to the bones from too much Silent Hill as a younger goon and also I'm a tremendous baby.AND IT'S SCARY OKAY edit: aw daaaamn i figured it out my brain is exquisite

Do you have any recommendations for my first playthrough? I bounced hard off of Oblivion once I realized all the encounters were the same and the skill / level scaling was boring. Anything EnaiSiaion is pretty reliably good. There are unofficial patches, also you'll want some expanded armor and weapon mods, and mods that add new monsters so you don't just end up fighting bandits/draugr/wolves/the same 3 types of dragons/bears/etc. Magic mods, Argonian raptor feet mod. Really, the driest stuff in the vanilla game are the perks, the weapons, the magic, the monsters... gently caress just the whole drat thing really. The follower Cosnach is always gold though, vanilla or otherwise. Basically, go to the Skyrim Nexus, get the mod manager downloaded, sort the mods by most endorsed of all time, and start going through pages and downloading stuff. You'll probably have a lot of stuff within the first 10 pages that you'll like, and after that you'll get more and more until you just ruin your loving save and start over. Probably. Maybe.
