The point is that at first I wanted to make a character that was just really good at making money, and who would be forced to avoid combat as much as any other normal citizen. Then, once I had all the Speech and Pickpocket I needed, I was going to buy all the skills from trainers and pickpocket some or all of the money back.CreepersWiener wrote:Illusion is the easiest to level up (especially if you are a High Elf). Go to your house, park your butt by your bed, and cast Muffle as much as you can (as a High Elf, use your magic regeneration power, you will be able to cast more spells this way). Once you have burned up all your magic, go to bed and wake up. Rinse and repeat...you will level up quick.InkL0sed wrote:I'm playing Skyrim right now. When I started out, I decided my character would focus entirely on Speech, avoiding all combat. Now my Speech is 95 and my Pickpocket 96, so I've switched focus to magic – and my Destruction is 70, Conjuration 66, and Illusion 59. All at level 35.
It's kind of obscene how fast I'm levelling skills. My only problem is I'm not getting perks fast enough to keep up.
I find it interesting that you chose Speech to focus on. How is that working out for you?
That part hasn't turned out as well as I hoped because you can only train five ranks in any skill per level, and ranks gradually get more expensive, making the money impossible to pickpocket back at a certain point. So now I'm running into this problem with perks.
I have a hard time fighting things but I get by – mostly because I can summon a Dremora Lord or Storm Atronach (with all of my magicka) even without the perks.
