LE Reevaluate the value of gold/money/septim in game.

[duchuy613]

After playing for awhile, I realized that I rarely do the repeatable quests such as the one from Dark Brotherhood faction. The reason is there'r no valuable rewards for it. In this game, everythings are FREE. I said that because you create your own potions, you craft, upgrade and enchant your own armors, you cook your own food OR you can just steal everything you want. I dont see any use for gold in this game. You can just run around, picking a bunch of materials from everywhere.

 

Since everythings are free, I see little to no use of having gold in this game and that make the repeatable quests ingame become useless, even picking up things and sell them is not really neccessary. So what I'm asking now is for someone to adjust somethings in this game.

 

• First: This is the most important thing I want. I want all the process of smithing, enchanting, creating potions, etc. costs a lot of gold and the cost increase base on the material, the strenght of the items and your level. For example, at lvl50, Daedric equipment cost 5k gold for each piece while steel equipment cost 500 gold for each piece. At lvl81, each Daedric piece cost 8k gold or even more, much more (15k). Creating potions, on the other hand still cost money but cheaper (100-500 gold for each). Decrease the amount of materials you can find around the world. For example, you get 1 dragon bone and 1 dragon scale from each dragon, or nothing at all.
   
  
• Second: I want the price for goods in Skyrim go skyrocket. 20k for a Glass armor pieces at lvl81? 1-2k for a non-healing potion (cheaper for healing potion ofc)? And the selling price is terrible. You spent 20k for a Glass armor and sell it back for 200.
   
  
• Third: Increase the gold rewards for quest to make it worth doing. Make more simple quest such as mail delivery, hunting for deer hides and stuff. Moreover, increase the amount of gold u get from inheritance letters.
   
  
• Last: Reduce the amount of gold you can loot from weak enemy and increase the gold you can find from chests or bosses. Seriously, the vanilla game lets you loot 50 gold+ from a weak bandit that u can kill in 2 hits and loot 15 gold+ from a master level locked chest in the last room of a dgn, together with a useless book. That's just ...weird. Instead of having bandits carry a bunch of gold, add a chest that contains all their gold in a room in forts or hideouts.
  

 

In overall, pls do something to increase the value of doing quests in skyrim. With the vanilla Skyrim, I can play from the beginning to end game without doing any repeat quest and skip a bunch of quests that dont give you artifact as the reward.

 

Pls comment and give your ideas. And I hope that someone will accept this request. Thanks and sry for my English.
