KratosAurion777 Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 I did a complete respect of my character using Command , ( didn't want to restart a new character ) . I have Keep just Conjuration and some restoration perk . Sneaking > Illusion , but the two together are broken i think . Now that i have the level 100 in Enchantment i made a Custom gear with + 53 resist magicka on the shield ( and 50 Absorb magicka with astronach stone ) , -58% conjuration cost and + 96 % bow and one handed dommage and + some life and Stamina . I am just 72 in smithing so i can't make extremely powerfull weapon yet but i have more than 567 Armor already with a Glass armor . I have 150 magicka , and i can summon double Dremora lord easily .

Euclid Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I don't know what you are talking about. I'm level 59 pure battlemage (read: no weapons, heavy armor enchanted), play on "normal" and 1 (or 2) shot almost everything with icy spear in one hand and incinerate or thunderbolt in the other hand. Mind you, mobs have different resistances. Maybe that's the reason you have problems to kill them. Cheers Euclid ps: Did not try Master difficulty, so maybe it's a steep up.E.

aguliondew Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I upgraded the difficult to masters because I was not dieing enough. Now I do not have a problem with that. Still any weapon >> than destruction on masters Eulcid. With the crafting/weapon perks your weapons will hit for 150-300 before the enchants. Add enchants (max enchanting/destruction) now you have 80 fire and frost damage on your weapons. So that is dual wielding 620 damage or bow/2h 460 damage and that is without any of the bugs to give you infinite damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matth85 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 "normal"The average Joe plays on Master. Mind you, mobs have different resistances. Maybe that's the reason you have problems to kill them.The reason why people are having problem is scaling. THe expert level spells are as strong or weak, as when you get them. This means that by level 70 you do nothing but tickle enemies. Put it on master, get to level 70ish, and fight a dragon. Watch how your mana is depleted before the dragon is under 90% health. All they needed to do was having a scaled damage based on magicka. Not a fixed value that is capped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euclid Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Well, it's a ranged damage of 90 per cast, hence with 2 hands 180. I can cast 10 times in about 13 secs before running OOM. That's more than 2k damage and I start to cast at range if possible. Usually mobs don't even get close and if they do and it's getting hairy then there's alway a shout ;-) Will see how it is when approaching the level cap but I guess it's the difficulty level as aguliondew said.

Rimland Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Guys , Did you try to kill opponents with destruction spell ? when you start the game it looks powerfull but at high level IT DOESN'T KILL I have all the perks in destruction , the best spell and i still kill faster with a deadric bow without enchantment and just 2 perk in it ... And recently my illusion don't work anymore because everyone is high level . So now the only thing i can do is conjuring 2 dremora and watching them with my companion killing thing ... I play in master Yuppers !!! pretty weird... Archery with 3 or 4 perks is much, much, much more effective than magic... then again, when you think about the LORE OF THE NORDS... they don't like magic... so seems fitting that the sword and archery skills are more effective than magic !

KratosAurion777 Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 Finally Destruction is usefull ! It upgrade dmg from enchant on your Weapon , you get a very nice bonuses because the + 50 percent In fire for exemple upgrade the other enchant to ! Now i am lvl 81 and i have the max legal dmg On Bow and One handed ( i don't use the restoration bug ) . I still use conjuration because it is fun . Alteration/illusion = 0 perk in it . Well i have finish all the quest i think , i am waiting for DLC and more difficulty ( Some mod i guess ) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimF Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Due to the ridiculous leveling system, you'll have to limit your levels when playing as a "pure" mage, if you hope for your magic to retain its usefulness. By doing that, you can freely enjoy the power of magic. The other option is using various mods, that allow magic to scale nicely till the latest levels. There are great mods that fix destruction and conjuration at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossomo Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Guys , Did you try to kill opponents with destruction spell ? when you start the game it looks powerfull but at high level IT DOESN'T KILL You don't get the game mechanics. It only takes about 20 levels to max destro. I'm guessing you mean by high level you have trained other skills. Now it is up to you how you synergize other skills sets with destro magic.
