loveme4whoiam Posted September 24, 2003 Author Share Posted September 24, 2003 DragoonFurey, i know what you mean. Ive had arrows fly through the side of an Ogrim before. The collison detection is slightly suspect, methinks. Right, to answer everyones question: 1. My skill is 35-36 (i started with it as a Major skill)2. My fatigue is usually at full. When i go hunting i usually walk a bit to let it reach full again3. Crosshairs are on (didnt know you could turn them off - pretty useless anyway). I'm in 2st Person (knida obvious :huh: )4. I'm using either Chitin arrows or Iron arrows that i found on a corpse Last point about Trib, i thought that being attacked by the Dark Brotherhood guys (who have really good armour - gracias :P ) overruled the Trib beginning?

Pob Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Last point about Trib, i thought that being attacked by the Dark Brotherhood guys (who have really good armour - gracias ) overruled the Trib beginning? It is the Trib beginning to be attacked by the DB (you get a journal entry) and then you need to speak to a gaurd (anyone will do) Had a thought about the bow. The bow is held in the right hand and the arrow fired on the right hand side, this may be why the bow pulls a little to the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read in the little pamphlet you get in the box saying you get attacked in your sleep, like the Trib beginning. So i assumed that the DB lot were from BM rather than Trib. Cheers for the info. Hang on a sec, that means i'm still going to have some fool from BM attack me as well... Thanks for the thoght about the bow. But would Bethesda put that much detail into the physics? It would be nice if they did (wink, wink, ES IV) but may be beyond the engine at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 Bloodmoon is activated via the "Latest Rumours" dialogue, not an assassin. However, it is just as annoying because the "Latest Rumours" dialogue works for every NPC in the game after that, and always talks about Solstheim.

Malchik Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Re Trib trigger. Sometimes you can 'rest' several times before the first DB attack. The booklet implies up to three but I've had a lot more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played as a Woodelf Marksman, I started with Marksman as 50 and I still couldn't hit stuff first time til it was about 70ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pack Rat Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 i did notice thatsome races arent that good bow users, i think about orcs then, had same prob too, i shot straight at them but it never hitted anything even after trainig <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pob Posted October 6, 2003 Share Posted October 6, 2003 I have noticed that (generally) what is more important than a high skill is the high related stat (not the case with some skills, but is with others). In partcular agility in combat seems to determine your chance to hit, so high agility hits more often and while high skill helps, high stat has more influence. This may influence why the bow isn't working properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveme4whoiam Posted October 10, 2003 Author Share Posted October 10, 2003 So, does everyone think that Bethesda severly messed up how the bows work, or at least made them too complex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switch Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 NOOO!! Bethesda can NEVER mess up!! THEYRE PERFECT I TELL YOU!!! *Becomes unstable and scuttles off into a corner, slumps down and starts scrawling messages on the wall with a pointy stick* Eehehehhee.... :D :ph34r: Ahem.
