My start in Skyrim
Hello,
I want to explain a little more about my view of the game and the way I play it and what I focus on at the beginning.
1. My first focus is to improve smithing and enchantment as much as possible. I don’t like, I really hate the long mining of crafting, etc. That’s why I focus on it right at the beginning of the game so that it doesn’t bother me later. So I’ll set the „Complete Crafting Overhaul Remastered“ mod so that when I mine ore, gems will drop, which I will process in the forge and then sell. They can also make good money making jewelry that can be sold to mages as well. This way, I earn enough money for the necessary items with various enchantments, and I also get enough soul stones. This is my way of making the enchantment to max level.
Tip: There is an enchantment for gaining more experience – constantly enchant new jewelry and clothes to learn faster and faster. (When I have maxed enchants I’ll make an „EM“ set. E- enchants for gaining more experience. M- Enchantments focused on my preferred skills – bow, one handed weapons, sneaking, pickpocketing, lockpicking, magic boost, mana recovery, etc).
2. Another thing I focus on is blacksmithing. Therefore, I mine different veins. (ebony, gold, silver, iron, moonstone, etc.). When I have blacksmithing at the maximum level, I will give myself set „C“ – crafting – blacksmithing enchantment and alchemy enchantment. Items are best crafted with the „EM“ set and upgraded with the „C“ set.
3. Then I make a set with light armor „M-L“ and heavy armor „M-H“ and also jewelry „M-U“ that I can use both with a set with heavy armor and with a set with light armor.
4. And now only once in a while (once for approx. 30-50 lvls) you need to upgrade your equipment so that it doesn’t fall too far behind.
5. Very early in the game I get turned into a vampire (An ordinary vampire, NOT a Volkihar vampire. I will turn into Volkihar vampire after companioin’s main quests). And I level him right from the start. Because it has enough significant bonuses to get a person out of big trouble. Plus I like vampires so that’s another reason. I only turn into a Werewolf when absolutely necessary when campaigning for Companoins (Or when I’m collecting werewolf leveling exp).
