Skyrim Weapons & SUrvivial


Elder Scrolls V Skyrim is a highly addicting game. That being said there are some thing that will help you survive this game. First, if all is that you remember the leveling system. You level up only as you level your skills.



Killing enemies only indirectly helps a level up in Elder Scrolls V Skyrim. Combat skills that can be trained include two handed weapons, one handed weapons, blocking, heavy and light armors, Archery, the few schools of magic, and sneaking.



Two-handed weapons can included big two handed swords, and some axes. One-handed weapons include a quite a number of swords, axes, and staffs. You may also duel wield one-handed weapons. Blocking is only available when you are not duel wielding. You can block with weapons, but more damage is blocked if a shield is used.



There are two main classifications of armor in the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim game, light and heavy. Heavy armor generally offers better protection but weighs more than light armor. Armor is made of a few pieces, the helmet, armor, gloves or gauntlets, shield, and boots. Amor pieces can be mixed, so you armor does not have to be one hundred percent heavy or light.



Archery of course is the use of bows and arrows, and at a higher level of archery, you can unlock the ability to use a zoomed view. If you press the block button while using the bow, the bow will be used as a melee weapon; this consumes stamina and does not do very much damage.



However, quite a few skills can be used outside of combat in the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim game. These include smithing, enchanting, lock picking, speech, and pickpockting. Smithing is the construction of weapons and armor. Usually metal ingots and leather is needed for this.



Weapons, can be made fine on the grinding wheel is the player wishes to use another ingot. Armor on the other hand is made fine by using a workbench. Speech affects the way you may talk to people, as it progresses you will get better prices in shops, and speech options like persuasion get a higher chance of success.

Skyrim Armor and Weapons


Next, bring some good equipment with you every time you play the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim game. Depending on the situation, bring some nice armor. Bring the type of armor you specialize in, especially since most dungeons are new to explorers. I usually wear a mix of light and heavy, and I never bring a shield.

Also, bring some nice weapons. It is also preferred to bring the weapon type that you specialize in. However, if you're running a new dungeon, make sure to bring a crap weapon. I cannot tell you how many times I have lost a nice weapon, or reloaded an earlier auto-save, because a Dragur Death lord used the disarm shout on me.

Myself, I stick to bows in Elder Scrolls V Skyrim, but I usually carry a weapon that is required for a quest because they will not use the disarm shout on weapons such as this. If you are going to take on a mammoth or giant, or multiples of the aforementioned, my advice to you is do not do it unless you have a high level of experience.

Giants and mammoths do an incredible amount of damage even if you are wearing heavy armor. I have seen giants send players flying with a deathblow.

Another important tip for you in combat is using your shouts wisely. Remember depending on the shout, they have recharge times; some can last quite long. Also, make sure you have the right type shout equipped, I had made that mistake a few times myself.

In addition, if you are running a mission in the rebellion storyline of Elder Scrolls V Skyrim, for the sake of your life, watch your friendly fire. I was playing a mission, accidently killed a teammate, and they all swarmed me. They have a zero tolerance policy, one teammate intentionally killed they will attempt to take your life for treason.

Do you have a tip for playing Elder Scrolls V Skyrim?
