ericdude88 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) has made skyrim easy mode on for me. Even on master difficulty. I OHK everything, even dragons. I also have 378 armor rating Daedric armor with a plus 27 heavy armor skill enchatment, while my daedric boots, gauntlets, silver ring/neckllaces all have +44% one handed attack damage bonus. Everything is legendary, and even dragon melee attacks on me don't do any damage. I also have the Otar, maxed out in every way possible, which also gives me +30% protection vs the 3 types of magic attacks. The problem is, i tried to get the best equipment ever early in the game, and once i did, the game just gets boring. I don't even bother checking for loot anymore. I have barely completed any quests (have done 35 so far), i haven't started any thieves guild, dark brotherhood, winterhold, stormcloaks vs empire, or any other faction quests for that matter except for companions ones. I haven't even talked to the greybeards yet, since i just focused on exploring every cave and becoming rich and powerful before moving on in the game. Now, despite having 1% completion, i don't even want to play anymore because of the combat. I just walk up the enemies and click they're dead. Why don't enemies in this game level with you??

Kravick Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 They DO level with you. You just broke the game with your min/maxing. Seriously, if you want to play the game without breaking it, don't combine any of the tradeskills with another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naikado2 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 My weaponry all does at most about 30 damage. What is this sorcery you have endowed upon yourself? >:S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghizz Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 So you took advantage of the im-balanced crafting skills and are now complaining that you feel too powerful? Why don't you try playing on master difficulty with no console commands as well as no crafting? That's what I'm doing now, and it sure is a challenge. Skyrim is a game where you can choose whatever the **** you want to do. If you want to be god, continue equipping those swords, but don;t complain on the forums. If you want combat to actually be fun, use lower - damage swords and armor thats not legendary?

Collecting, leveling, crafting, and enchanting are half of the game for me. For me, this game is about having something to look forward to, to have upgrades. That's just how i play RPGs. It's just fun for me to hunt for the best equipment. Character building is my favorite part of all role-playing games, so i refuse to just settle with low level weapons. It takes away half the fun. And it is definitely hard for me to just settle with low level crap when i know there are better stuff. It's hard for me to purposely degrade my equipment. I just wish it was like Fallout 3, where even maxed weapons don't do amazing damage, and where different weapons are good for different situations. I remember in Fallout 3 I'd constantly switch between plasma rifles, lazer guns, snipers, assault rifles, and tons of unique special weapons. Sometimes i'd go melee. there wasn't anything that was so OP. And it is hard for anyone to purposely use some crap weapon they have when they obviously have a better option.And dude, don't assume. I don't use console commands at all, and no crafting is no fun. Different people have different tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, if you want to play the game without breaking it, don't combine any of the tradeskills with another.Well, all i did was max out enchanting and smithing. Once i did that, i enchanted some cheap gauntlets, clothing, necklaces and rings with +25% smithing effectiveness (all using grand soul gems and enchanter's elixir). Once i did that, i wore those clothes, giving me a +100% smithing bonus, and then drink a blacksmith's elixir, maxing me out to 150%. Then i improve my weapons. After, i craft my daedric full suit of armor, then with another enchanter's elixir, enchant a +44% bonus to one-handed damage to all armor that can possibly be enchanted with this ability (gauntlets, boots, ring and necklace). That's how i get my overkill armor and weapons lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vindekarr Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) You have only yourself to blame, if you wanted a balanced fight you shouldn't have powerleveled. It does strike me as a bit of a pointless criticism, yet one I've seen constantly since release, people complaining that the game becomes unbalanced when they essentialy use god-mode. Illogical.

Being a person who is just OCD and has to search for best combos in any game i play, the fact that this is possible is game ruining. I don't know how you guys can, but there is just no way i can knowingly nerf myself after all the hard work i did just to have a challenge. i'm not that type of person.

ericdude88 Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 That's hardly the game's fault Eric.That is your opinion. Personally, i liked Fallout 3's weapon system much better. Best weapons were only situational best weapons, gameplay had a lot more variety in terms of combat (and i say this because melee+archery > mage any day...and there is no other choice), and the fact that there are actually strong enemies (unlike in this, where the supposed bosses, the dragons, can be one hit killed...) made it a lot funner. I actually had to sneak a lot and try different approaches. Now i just run up and slash because its the best way to go about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
