@Mithoron I haven't enchanted it yet because I need my alchemy to catch up, but I have 3 daedric mail plus studded dragonscale helmet. I have several dragonscale sets if I need to upgrade them too.
Weapons have no damage cap though, do they?
Eh, I still have some way to go. My set is now 800-ish armor and my weapon is 250 damage (only? only.)
Daedric weapons look so cool, I wish I liked how the dragonbone sword looks
Though thankfully amber has the same damage, will try to see how that looks too. Hopefully not too orange
@Mithoron well I don't need to fly, I just need to run farther
Glass looks so nice too. Once it becomes easy enough to hit armor cap I'd probably go with glass
Alchemy is just 62, the rest are 100. 300 days passed in-game
Oh, and I forgot, I actually just have nightingale boots and gloves equipped, so for now that affects armor rating too.
OK, is something wrong with me or is killing foxes fun
Their eyes are just so weird and the way they look at you is kinda creepy. Killing goats and everyone else isn't as fun. Oh, rabbits are really fun too
Bonus points if you sprint towards them and bash them with a mace

Anyway, Skyrim aside, now I'm on season five of Better Call Saul. Rarely have I enjoyed any other show this much

@M.A.R. You already hit the armor cap and damage is about as high as what you reasonably get.
While displayed armor gets higher and higher, getting close to 700 or higher does nothing.
 
1:17 PM
@M.A.R. Also I think you noticed that by now material doesn't matter much, as long as you can fully temper it.
It's speed of weapon that still makes difference.
@M.A.R. You should actually fly now - on dragons.

@M.A.R. I'm reading "Unsounded" not half bad webcomic.
You didn't go back to Digger?

@Mithoron Armors yes, but also weapons?
@Mithoron Yeah I can do that. Never tried it after Miraak.
He was easy. Time to amp the difficulty?
I legendaried a couple of skills
@Mithoron I read that elemental fury makes for more damage than enchantments
Also my character was always gradually transforming from a mage into a fighter, now he's a full fighter
I neglected stamina but I should upgrade it now
 
8:40 PM
@M.A.R. Weapons too, of course
@M.A.R. This time was quite a bit ago
@M.A.R. I have a feeling it's because you neglected enchanting and getting strongest spells. I defeated Miraak using a spell.
@M.A.R. Maybe, but it has limited usage.
This "legendary" is weird. I used it a few times, but after Miraak you can get perk points back for a soul. Some infinite leveling is nonsense.
 
9:44 PM
@Mithoron I'm reading that armor cap is at 567, which is disappointingly low. What about weapon cap?
So I should amp the difficulty then
And now I'm creating monstrous potions. The exploit is becoming easier
@Mithoron honestly elemental blasts/bolts etc. make it really easy except for the badassest bosses.
Toughest guy I've met was called Thoron. I just stumbled into him, f*cker must have been a close-to-endgame boss or something
@Mithoron I'm greedy and I wanna get enough perks to have lots of upgrades in every fighting style, so quite a few legendaries are needed. Though I suspect after level 80 or so, leveling up will be too too difficult.
 
@M.A.R. Fighting style? Didn't I mention most of them hardly does anything by now?
 
@Mithoron what do you mean? I'm just saying I wanna get enough perks for the bows and one-handed weapons to have any possible cool slash beneficial aspects
Like, say, slow time perk with the bow. It's not that useful practically speaking, but I'll get it
And I'm not even an archer most of the time. Just sometimes sneak archer for fun
 
10:02 PM
The bonus damage is calculated using the base damage of the weapon.
Also if you have such damage already...
Well, as long as want to go further you can get more and more of perks etc... You're playing with some absurd speed, so you get hooked for more stuff, I guess.
I didn't finish Thieves - felt kinda pointless later in game. Killed off assassins cutting it short too.
Still I played, like half a year or so, just not intensively.
 
@Mithoron Okay, can I get some advice on health stamina magika upgrades? Now that I fight dual wielding, should stamina and health be roughly equal, or do you recommend, like, 2 levels for health, one for stamina?
 
10:19 PM
@M.A.R. I don't think stamina would matter much now. It's mostly for power attacks and even normal should slaughter.
 
Well, I'm gonna slowly amp the difficulty now
Cya for now
 
@M.A.R. Careful with that, I felt the difference even being much tougher vs magic then you.
