list of 1000 tips, tricks, and Secrets in Skyrim - Page 2

29. imperials (or those with great calming skills) should invest some perk points in 1handed for damage and sneak to get 15x crit with daggers. using voice of the empire will cause most enemies to turn their back to you. take that time to sneak and knife them. this has saved me from brutal deaths by lightning blasts multiple times.

30. Not only do fire spells do the most damage, they seem to also cost less than frost and shock spells.

31. Atronachs are completely immune to spells of their own type, so if you are mainly a fire spell user, the best atronach to use is the fire one, as you can use your spells without needing to worry about damaging your minion.

32. Your companion can carry an unlimited number and weight of stuff, but only if you tell them to pick them up in command mode.

33. You can skip the dialog and go straight to command mode by pointing your cursor at your companion from far enough away that the "talk" option doesn't appear, and holding the 'use' button.

34. Whirlwind Sprint can be used as a long-jump. There are some areas you can only reach this way

35. Go by random townspeople and show off some Shouts (don't attack them). If they've never seen it before, they'll exclaim their surprise or something. Some time after you arrive in any major city, a courier will give you a letter from an anonymous person giving you a misc. quest towards a word wall. You can also talk to Arngeir one of the greybeards, after completing his tasks he can point you to more word walls. Some words can only be learned through the main quest.

17. The "Impact" perk in the Destruction tree will stop a dragon from breathing fire/frost.

This also works with shield bash and power attacks. Just make sure youre in their face. Constantly staggering dragons makes quick work of them. Same with giants.

4. Mammoths and Giants can't walk on rocky terrain or walk in ponds and water

Wrong. i have just been in a fight with a mammoth and he was most definatley runngin through a river

28. In a dungeon, you can turn off the torches to help with sneak attacks. Hiding in the dark enemies can walk right passed you and wont see as long as you are fully in the dark

How do you do that?

It depends how deep the river is, if they require swimming most animals won't follow you (also bears). As for torches, many of the torches can be interacted with with E on PC. Idk what the button for it is on consoles. You can also place them back that way.

36. Sleeping in a bed you own or a bed at an inn will give you a buff for 8 hours that increases ALL skill gains by 10%.

23. Pickpocket someone who shoots target dummies with arrows, and take the arrows they were using (usually iron or steel). Then, give them one of the arrow type you want more of. They will now shoot that type of arrow instead of the one they were shooting before. Simply collect he arrows as they hit the target dummy to get as many arrows as desired.

I love you.

I could use this if I find a bow to use better than my bound bow. Getting tons of deadric arrows bc of you

Who shoots daedric arrows on dummies?

32. Your companion can carry an unlimited number and weight of stuff, but only if you tell them to pick them up in command mode.
