Are there more than the novice fire atronach conjuration spells?

Or is the novice spell the highest atronach summoning you can get?

Question about my missing follower
My follower (Lydia I think... the Housecarl) left during a companion mission because I had to take a companion with me. She said she would "wait at home." Well I dont own any property, and now the mission is over and I cant find her anywhere. Where does she go?"

A Night to Remember
is such an amazing quest

Heh, I just triggered that one. I knew that I was getting myself into something by
sharing a drink with that weirdo, but I couldn't resist. I just left the temple (game crashed :( ),
can't wait to see where it goes from here.

i walked into a cave, near the shrine of azura, and i definitely wasn't supposed to be in there.

i had to run through the whole thing, just to escape the enemies i had no chance of killing. fun times.

She should be waiting back at Dragonsreach. At least that's where she went in my game before I got a house.

wow just got stuck in the most stupidest fucking spot, going in third person there is clearly room to move or jump but nope.. cant move or jump and i haven't saved in like 20 minutes

EDIT- and its not letting me fast travel, probably because enemies are in this area in front and know im here.

I was challenged in a drinking game,
passed out, woke up next morning in a different capitol, across the map, only to find out last night I trashed a temple, stole a goat, bought a ring, got engaged...
Still retracing my steps on this one.

edit: see it was just recently talked about

I don't know if the Jarl is gone, I didn't actually get a chance to meet him before getting put in jail :/ His guards are still there so I guess he may be hanging around somewhere.

Jarl is back now, but he won't give me quests and the guards still try to arrest me, even though the Jarl admitted, that I didn't actually commit any crimes... Weird.

First: I know this game isn´t about combat and I´m still having the best time of my life!
So ... I am level 23 and get really frustrated with the combat system. Playing on Master.

Short overview: Bow/1 handed/Conjuration/Smithing skilled.

Every thing right now is like this: Pull with Bow and let the Companion tank. Summon a Fire Element. If I´m in trouble at this point I will use my shrine. "Revive everyone in radius [x] once a day) = another 1-5 minions. Nothing even tries to hit me at this point.

My gear is a 40 dmg bow and and two 35 dmg 1h axes. Wearing light armor at ~140. Values are so high because of smithing ...

I just feel like I rolled the optimal char and it gets boring. Summons and Companions are way to powerfull. They tank so much hits while a dragon/bear/troll 3hits you.

Not if the game says you are "hanging" in midair with no flat surface beneath. Happened to me as well.

Smithing is really easy if you save your animal hides. I just went from 20-42 in a couple minutes making hide bracers. I was going to avoid this at first because I thought it was more for heavy armor, but I like the way the tree is set up for light armor all the way to dragon scale. I'm out of mats now so I guess I should go hunting again.

Can you not sell custom potions? I've got a ton of useless ones I crafted to work on my alchemy skill, but they don't appear as options to sell, even at alchemist shops. Just the handful of off-the-shelf potions I've found.

You can use iron daggers as well. Just buy your mats, they arent thaaaat expensive.

Yea I've seen lots of people mentioning daggers for a good way to level it up but I didn't want to spend any gold until I already got rid of all the leather I had stocked up. I might look into the daggers to get up to 50 now.

Without, can't have them blowing my cover.

Lydia is doing pretty well in staying aloft if need be. And if there is some SERIOUS stalking to be done, I just tell her to wait at a corner. She is awesome. The first time a NPC isnt annoying when I am doing the sneaking part.

I never played the first two Elder Scrolls games. What provinces did they take place in?

Here's the world map from Arena:

Daggerfall was Hammerfell and High Rock:

Battlespire took place on, well, the Battlespire and Reguard was on the island of Stros M'Kai in Hammerfell.

Every time you go to Whiterun (or whatever that first city is) buy up all the iron ingots and iron ore from the lady smith, her husband inside, and the smith at Skyforge. You can have 100 smithing before you even get your main combat skill to 35.

going home now transferring my save from my brothers house to my house. Hopefully it will work!



I am level 5 and 2 hours in and that is just the first dungeon! I think I am leveling up too fast. Time to steal things.

Everyone goes at their own pace :)

I'm taking my time with everything. Absorbing the scenery, looking at monsters walk, watch rabbits run, and anything else on my screen is interesting.

Wonder how much hours I will put into this game by Friday.

hmm I might do that. I just for the hell of it went to see how much of a damage upgrade I could give my bow after leveling smithing about 20 levels and wow... wow It was worth it. Huge upgrade. And that was for my dwarven bow, something I don't even have a perk in.

Doh, bright side I think there might be more quest in this game. Also I'm not finished with that quest so who knows might happen next.

I'm level 13 or 14 now and for how many hours I've dumped into it, I haven't run across very much different armor. Like at all. Nothing that look s cooler or has much better armor properties. I don't get it. I've traveled a lot of places as well.

I looted her, flipped her around and had a last long good look at her tits. Still remember them!
I was in the hight of battle (a battle I was losing) Once she died I did what all good men would do, turned around and ran away.

Just resumed play after a few hours off. Spent 10 minutes on a nice stroll with no sign of danger, just foxes and butterflies and gushing rivers. An ice dragon appears, then his mate decides to join in out of nowhere and it's tag team time. We lost.

Are you a warrior type character? Level up your smithing. I'm lvl 19 and rolling in Orcish armor. Grinding smithing to get to Daedric.

Had Dwarven Armor for a while...that was pretty badass looking.

EDIT: It's strange, it seems like EVERY town guard used to be an adventurer like me until they took an arrow in the knee lol

WEird. I'm playing the game and the screen will flash a little green (like i'm underwater) and i'll hear a "splash" sound (like when you step on water) and everything will jerk a little bit.

Then it goes back to normal. It seems something is messed up in Gamebryo. If I close the game and reload it, it's ok.. after a while, it messes up again. Anybody heard of anything like that?

Im stilling rockin my starter robes as wel (level 18) found some nice boots/ rings and necklaces but a nice hood or robe is pretty rare it seems
 
This game can be frustrating at times.


I had this companion for a few days now. Started to like him, even gets a few jokes out, he ended up litteraly as a pile of ashes by some very ugly fellas (some kind of lich?) in a dunjeon.





Also, I hate dwarven ruins.


And where can you buy the scroll for learning "tap soul" spell?

I get this feeling too, I had way more troubles with snow trolls early than with dragons.
