I was storing all my stuff in the two barrels in front of the blacksmith shop in whiterun, never had anything disappear or stolen, though I never let 10 days pass either without adding/taking from those barrels... now I store stuff in DB sanctuarythe one outside of dawnstar in the master bedroom you get built by delvin from the TG
I never stored anything until I got a house. I guess that's why I have $60k+. I'm a sell whore.
Remember that you also need it to improve the armour to make it flawless or legendary, I can't remember which is better, but that requires dragon parts as well.
holy shit this game is addicting. i've never given games like this a shot so this is the first RPG i've gotten into. i'm primarily an FPS player. i bought Skyrim on a whim saturday night and started downloading it before i went to bed. spent 7 hours playing on sunday and 4 more tonight. i planned on playing BF3 tonight but wanted to try one thing in Skyrim first...and that was it. 4 hours gone in no time.
Are High Elf characters any fun? They are hideous looking to me, maybe there are texture mods that make them more appealing. Do you get any respect from the Thalmor/Aldmeri Dominion has an Altmer character, or are they are lippy and aloof as ever?
This game is bigger than Oblivion, FO3 and FONV (from what I remember) in terms of the world and content. Can't say for certain compared to Morrowind, although I think it is. I still haven't even visited every single town, and I've only explored in detail I think two of the holds (major city). Two holds I've visited only briefly.
It is this size that makes me wish you had the option of not being thrust into the main quest for RP reasons. I'd really love to just be able to live in the game world for awhile. I mean take when you first get to Riverwood, it would be awesome if you could just start out working a bit in the lumber mill or as a hunter maybe. But I can't see why you would design it the way they did, since many people might have trouble discovering/finishing the main quest otherwise. It isn't a huge deal of course, since there aren't game play implications of putting off the main quest. But really for games with this overall level of quality it is more about finding faults for improvement, than any real negativity.
That was actually one of the reasons Morrowind was so difficult to get into. They just kinda threw you out into this vast, open-ended world that had countless possibilities, and most people simply had no idea where the hell they were supposed to go.
I like the smithing, I just need to figured out what levels I need to be at to add more stuff to my swords and armor and in the case of the armor where to find void salts.

I don't know where void salts appear in the wild, but you can buy them as ingredients from most alchemists, there's one in every major town. What armour requires that to make/improve?
You can improve armour at any level, but your smithing level decides what grade of improvement you actually apply, so you start off being able to improve weapons by about 1 attack/defence point, eventually you can improve them to flawless/legendary which adds a large bonus, smithing is well worth it IMO.

I doubt their attitudes change if you're also a stupid elf retard-looking homo silly fantasy character, since even though I am playing as a Nord I still get every second character shouting SKYRIM FOR THE NORDS or FUCK OFF BACK HOME Y'BASTARD at me and the like. Bethesda seem to have overlooked the race aspect of it.
Nope, race has no bearing on how the game plays, other than your racial power. It's pretty irritating, actually.
you can also jack void salt from alchemist and court wizard's shops if they have them lying around.
It affects certain lines the NPCs will use with you, same with your gender choice and main skill choices, but that's it to my knowledge.
Yeah if you're a thieving bastard you can
NG armor requires it.
Currently I'm sitting at 68 Smithing with steel, arcane, elven, and dwarven perks and able to improve 2 times. Now "if" my brain is working right 3 upgrades will be at 80 and 4 at 100?
Side note my NG armor was at 99. 1 void salt later its 126(and listed as exqusite), must find more alchemist's!

I found myself clicking through his lines just so I didn't have to hear his voice. The thieves guild seems more thuggish than in Oblivion. Perhaps I didn't notice, but is there no bonus for a clean mission?
Huh? You don't sequentially upgrade things with Smithing. You always upgrade them to the maximum of your abilities.
that's how i've been playing. if i enter a room and nobody's around i take what i want. is there any downside to being a thief in this game if you never get caught?
I'm the same way. Enter shop crouch and move until you are hidden and steal like a MOFO. I've crouched behind venders and stolen coins and coin purses that are in front of them on a counter at about every shop I hit.
Only real down side is the snide comments you get from guards and what not.
"You keep your fingers to your self while in x town" It's fun to turn around and clean them out when they do it
i haven't been ballsy enough to steal right behind someone's back while they're in the room. i quicksave what feels like every damn 30 seconds, so i suppose i haven't got much to lose. i guess i'll work on my thievery tonight
In my corrupted save play, I was a DW warrior but my pickpocketing skill was the most used. I had so much stolen crap I couldn't sell.
Well how does it work then? If a smithing check isn't needed past the perk for doing enchanted armor/weapons where does the check come into play at? My weapon/armor skill?

Thieving is so easy, probably too easy. The only one I had trouble with was jacking the translation the NG portion of the quest line.
