Lol I'm a pure mage, 320 magika and 100 health haha
That quest to get the staff where it keeps draining your magika was very, very hard...
Yes mate. IIRC you can fill it back up with soul gems? Someone correct me if I'm wrong though?

Cookie, it sounds like you need to re-think your game play tactics/character stats if you're that weak again mages.
For example, I'm very weak against two handed weapon people, so to counter act that, I've got my conjuring ability right up and now just conjure something for them to batter whilst I bow and arrow/spell they're ass.

Yeah fire resist/magic resist on a shield would sort you out.
You're weak against fire because it's pure damage as opposed to being concerned with draining stamina/magicka like thunder/ice

Mages will always f**k you up. You just gotta make sure you kill them first.
I use a bit of sneakery to get in there, identify the mages and drop them from afar with arrows. I can then switch to my mace/shield and give the others a hiding. The Dragon Priests can cause me problems though cos they float about all over the place making it damned hard work hitting them with arrows. If I don't get that first sneak x3 attack in then it can get close sometimes.
I've got the chance to paralyze perk now which is mildly amusing. They just go completely rigid and slowly topple over in whatever position they were in. Reminds of that fainting goats video.

It's levelled, so depending on your progress the armour value will change. Standard :
http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Ancient_Shrouded_Armor
I think the Armour rating on mine is 47, for the armour itself, as opposed to 33 as shown on the link above. The enchantments are the same.

Also, I know I've mentioned this before, but the Steed Stone is very handy. It not only adds 100 to your carrying capacity, but it also makes any armour you're wearing weightless. So you could be rocking with full Daedric or Dragon armour and it's weight is set to 0.

Scutch, what? where?

Muchas gracias.
Is the Wiki as good or better than buying the guide book?

I'd argue that it should be better - given the fact that it can be edited and updated online?

I've found it spot on when I've used it.

Might have to hunt that Steed Stone down. I've found a couple of standing stones but the s**t they give you isn't right good. I seem to struggle with carrying stuff cos my stamina is quite low - I've loaded my guy up massively on health. Mind you, I don't really need the cash - I have about 40k and not much to spend it on. It's rare that I find anything better than what I can make myself.
I use the UESP wiki myself - Seems to have everything I need.

It's permanent until you click on another stone

Yeah the stones are permanent but you can only have 1 at a time. The blessings (from altars) are for a day or so. Again you can have only 1. I like my Talos blessing so I can use my FOOS more often.
There are a few permanent ones you can get too. I have a couple that I've gotten through various missions. One enables me to beat the crap out of women (damage bonus versus members of the opposite sex) and one that enabled me to learn smithing a lot faster.

Probably the best resource, IMO.

Just got the achievement for 100k Gold with my new character.

The trouble I'm having now is that cos the gear I'm bringing back is so expensive none of the traders have enough money to buy it off me. The only way I can see of shifting it all is travelling all over the place to visit all the thieves guild fences. I know there are some speechcraft perks which increase trader gold but sod spending my precious perks on that - I'm still working on making myself a badass.

Each Thieves' Guild fence carries 4k Gold once you're up to the retired level and you've taken the right perks.

Full daedric armor and a dragon priest's mask ftw
Have crafted it to be legendary too now, just need to get some decent enchantments
Also got past the bit with the ridiculous hard mage. I used a mage bodyguard, which worked to some extent, and then I decided to dual lightning him... that worked well

Has anyone else suffered from the bug/glitch after the third quest 'Loud and Clear' as part of the Theives Guild? Once it comes up that you have completed 'Loud and Clear' it does not then prompt a starter for the following mission 'Dampened Spirits'. Therefore, I am unable to continue with any of the Theives Guild quests which is very disappointing as it is one of the last series of quests I have left to complete.
Two explanations are given online. The first states that when speaking to Brynjolf at the end of 'Loud and Clear' if you pick one of the two options during the conversation as opposed to the other, it will not prompt the start of the 'Dampened Spirits' quest. The second explanation is that once you have been told to speak to Maven Black-Briar shortly after being given the quest, the quest will bug out and you will not be able to continue with the Thieves' Guild quest line.
Has anyone else experienced this?
