Skali is off to a fast start despite some hairy situations. While rounding up his starting gear he was chased by a pack of werebears. Thankfully, the Redoran Guard had his back. Those werebears are tough! He's a full member of the Companions, but Vilkas has sent him off to sunderstone gorge. Given Skali has no resistance or fire resistance, he won't be completing that assignment. Kharjo asked him to retrieve his moon amulet from Bloodskaal Barrow. That will definitely have to wait. Skali has encountered all kinds of nasties outside White River Watch. He has attacked by a Khajit battlemage firing lightning bolts, then the scavengers, and then the roaming band of bandit chiefs. Lots of running around and tactical retreats, but he killed them all. He's using a skyforged steel greatsword, silver greatsword, Stormfang and an elven bow primarily. He just picked up an iron greatsword with soultrap, so no need to play around with Gathrik. He has an amulet of arkay and just found a lightning resist amulet.

The Dread Zombie Tubasha has been hard at work. She made it out of Helgen, cleared Embershard, eliminated all of the bandits (and Anise) in the Riverwood area. Then it was off to Whiterun, where she cleared the Hall of the Dead (though I don't know if that counts as a dungeon or not), talked with Jarl Balgruuf, did a favor for Farengar. She started looking for work and cleared Silent Moons, Valtheim Towers, Redoran's Retreat, White River Watch, and finished off with Bleak Falls Barrow. However, her combat with Mirmulnir was (in my opinion) hair raising... See what you think. Dancing With Mirmulnir (about three minutes long) I'll be posting other video of her exploits, but I kinda wanted to give this one a place of its own. |

You didn't see it, but she chugged a LOT of healing potions... and she had a bowl of vegetable soup before the fight started. :) |

You know... health potions, stew's and soups.. raw ingredients ... Thistle, Snowberry and Swamp fungus, dragons tongue ... your "elemental" resist's... and we did decide that raw ingredients are ok.. just not mixing potions.. Yes it will raise Alchemy.. but so will tempering or recharging.. so... We all know the game pretty well.. so if you know the place has mages... a few berries or dragons tongue, go a long way to being helpful. |

Cora has used a few veggie soups, and carries some ingredients (which I always forget to use.) She almost got killed last night by the boss in Ilinalta's Deep, cornered by him and a resurrected mage, and I forgot completely that she was carrying four Scrolls of Firestorm. :ugh: She's now at just under level 8, about 10 hours. She just cleared Valtheim Towers and has just entered Fellglow Keep. I think she has 11 dungeons cleared, counting a couple of forts that don't get marked by the game. About 9000 gold. Looking forward to level 10, when we will start finding random Apprentice-level spell tomes. We need them! We really need a ranged Destruction spell. |

That is really the one thing that I am afraid of.. not finding any useful spell tomes... but, if I can get Az up to H.H. and get some dragon's going, their are a few shout's that will really be useful... Become Ethereal, Kyne's peace, Ice form, Storm Call... yeah, very useful...

You have to fight mages to get spell tomes. I think I picked up of all the available novice spells by about level 4. Then there's a gap, and you don't see any apprentice-level tomes until level 10 or 11 (different loot tables.) The tomes you find don't depend on your skill level, just your overall level. And it occurs to me that Cora should leave off doing any more mage lairs for a while, and go fight bandits and draugrs, so she'll have a source of higher level tomes. Some of these lairs don't respawn. :) |

That is good to know. ..most of my RP "mages". . Either get their tomes from the CoW as part of "classes"... or I console in the chest with all the tomes... and they grab what they need at that time.. .Haven't done a "find" the tomes mage in years... |

I think that there's something we need to make clear one way or the other. That is, dungeons that do not show as cleared... The Dread Zombie Tubasha is currently level 8, and has officially cleared 9 dungeons at this point. The problem is that she has also cleared: The Hall of the Dead in Whiterun Redbelly Mine Fort Greenwall. None of those three have been flagged as cleared or added to her total by the game. the Hall of the Dead was a very minor thing (even if it was at level 3), but the frostspiders in Redbelly are dangerous, and Tubahsa has been making grumbling noises... Something about "hunting down competition organizers if she doesn't get credit for the Bandit Chief at Fort Greenwall". Ah, I wouldn't take that sort of thing too seriously, you know what great kidders Orcs are, and it probably doesn't mean a thing... but she says she risked her life, and honor demands fair reward, whatever that means... At one point quite a bit earlier, I'd asked about such dungeons, and was told by someone (No, I don't remember who) that Areial had mentioned that we'd have to just keep track of such dungeons and add them to the tally. When I went looking for it, I couldn't find that statement though, so..Inquiring minds (and irate orcs) want to know... ;) |

hmm I DO remember saying that.. and I will say it again. If it doesn't show as cleared...tally it up.. keep track of it.. ( by Name) Reason.. IF their is a quest with the dungeon, it might not "clear" until you have done that quest.. Most do.. some don't.. I seriously doubt we all want to sit there with the wiki open, looking into the dungeons. The only reason I did not count Whiteriver Watch Tower with Mel, is cause I only saw 2 dead bandit's.. not the usual 3.. plus it re-spawns... |

Tubasha thanks you (as do I :) ), I think she's a little confused though... she said she hopes you "Live long and prosper"... You've kinda got ME confused though. I'm familiar with Whiteriver Watch (as in a cave with Whosit Ironhand at the top, but I don't think that's what you are talking about. Are you talking about the tower by the cliff that lays between Riverwood and Bleak Falls Barrow? |

Ah, that explains it. No caffeine... Yeah, it's not always three who show up there, although most of the time it is. The guards usually handle them well enough, so I rarely bother with it... unless I show up with a giant tundra spider or something hot on my heels. ;) |

Twice now, I've had an odd encounter on the road. I've chalked it up as being part of Immersive Patrols, but it was definitely new to me. A group of four bandits (all of them the lowest tier) that have crazy amounts of health. They deal little damage, but are like freaking tanks to take down. |

I've not got caught up on all the stories yet (will do that tonight after work) I'm planning to make a start tomorrow and throw in as many hours as I can over the course of 2 days....work keeps me busy with random shifts and different hours every day. Currently planned character will be Eragon Breton Male Skill Focus: Archery, Conjuration, Alteration Hopefully this way I can hide behind my summoned meat shields, rack up a decent amount of magic resist and get plenty of souls for selling/recharging any staves I pick up. If it doesn't play out too well, I may switch one of the magic skills for sneak. |
