JediSayRelax
I'm really glad the remastered version came out so a whole new wave of people can fall in love with Skyrim like I have. Such a relaxing game
EvanJames
Favouriting for the day I finally decided to play... bet I never see it again
BumNanner
Hold alt on PC to make the horse gallop, so hit the sprint key to sprint. Wow. Never would have thought of that.
Trycom
The end says Don't translate this

I didn't know a many of these. Thanks @OP !!!
SomthingAwesome
Lol I'm currently living in Anise's house
SirPowder
You can give the Crown you get in the Civil War questline and give it to the opposing faction, essentially going turncoat.
ShaunDreclin
wow holding the sprint button makes you go faster that is a shock
TheTeeTwo
I appreciate theese, more are welcome.

Op is a reposter and a phoney. Unfortunately, I am the High King of Skyrim....

The person who created is credited directly on the picture.

Why does one of those markings at the bottom glow? Wait... Holy shit i understand now!
hsdqwerty
These never load on mobile...anyone else have the same issue?
genesteeler
im on mobile and its fine
MedicalSideOfImgur
Did you know, you can mine by doing it the way people have been mining for centuries? Pickaxing an ore.
EffieDeia
400 hours in skyrim and I didn't know fire boiled the water. This is what I get for being hack and slash.
HaveYouSeenMyLSD
At least credit the OP, @OP.. -1

Rename this to "things everybody who actually played skyrim knows"

lol I just always fireball every fox I see
Aerolfoz
#23 #24 and #25 are not necesarily right at all. First, you can rebind. Sprint key makes horse gallop, not alt. Foxes are random. Hidden...
Aerolfoz
...stuff is everywhere. And 25, if by hosue you mean paltry sum of gold, yes. Actual house being usable by you is a misunderstanding
Aerolfoz
from the disposition system. They'll let you use their house if you're a friend, and this is the same that makes them give you inheritance.
fuckyouandyourwittyusername
Is that what they meant? That one confused me, I've never gotten anything other than money.
Aerolfoz
That is what it seems. I also never got anything but money.
liam33
you can make your horse run by pressing the run button!?!!?!?!?
supraman2turbo
Foxes dont lead you to a damn thing Ive tried that one, they go in circles
fuckyouandyourwittyusername
It's a half truth. They just run away, but Skyrim has so much stuff going on that wandering in a random direction will lead you to stuff.
supraman2turbo
But then it isnt even a half truth when wandering around will find you something regardless.
fuckyouandyourwittyusername
Well, no. If you follow a fox, it will lead you to something interesting, but it's not scripted or intentional. But it will happen.

So whats with Anises cabin
TheMovieGalaxyQuest
Small dungeon below it
AnErrorOccured
Beware of it!? I always stop by there immediately at the start! Free house bitch! Free enchantment table too.
daneshannonsparks
I'm like "chill out lady I'm a witch too I'm actually like head of the witch school it's cool" but no, she has to go make it a whole THING.
Sephority
She's a witch
SpecialProjectY
How do you known she is a witch?
Sephority
If you read the notes she's trying to get her daughter and grandaughter in the coven.
SpecialProjectY
She looks like one?
Ryoswindwalker
It has an old woman called anise who will attack if you go into her basement.
FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
She had a basement?
Placeboy
There's a trapdoor in the floor in the westernmost part of her cabin.
SpecialProjectY
Every woman has a basement, some attack when you try to explore it.
FusRoDoodles
After 3 days of playing on PS4, I find out now that Sony won't let modders add external content, so the mods will always be basic. FML.
Omni21
Yeah, we were so peeved when we realized mods were worthless on the ps4.
sunnydelinquent
PC man. I have PS4 but Fallout 4 and Skyrim have never been better than when I built my PC
FusRoDoodles
I had regular Skyrim on PC, loved it. I got the PS4 version so I can lay on my couch with my dog and play it.
sunnydelinquent
I miss the old days. 360 in the bedroom. Black Ops with the pupper
WarriorSuperman
Yeah, I got an Xbox One from a friend and bought Skyrim. PS4 screwed themselves outta my money on that one.
spudcosmic
To be fair, if you're interested in modding you're missing out on the greater 75% of mods because console will not support script extenders.
WarriorSuperman
I do have the PC version but my PC is not a beast by any means. I can support a lot of mods, but nothing like an ENB or something like that
WarriorSuperman
The Xbox version is nice to have as well for some casual playing cause my computer isn't set up for gaming specifically.
AWeirdnamethatithoughtwasalreadytaken
Mine faster. Equip two pickaxes and use Elemental Fury shout.
iDrinkDrano
Yup. That was my main use for that shout as well
idiotcube
But don't try to block if you have two pickaxes. You will only get confused.
TojS

SaltySouffle

wooting
or just get a mod for instant mining?
Kmpapples
can confirm, fury shout 4 life
daneshannonsparks
Mine faster. Install a mod that lets you mine an ore vein in one swing.
AlabasterScarf
Can confirm, cuts your time in half at least.
KevorkianScarf
Not sure if they fixed the bug, but you can also swing faster with a dagger in your L hand and pickaxe in R hand. Esp. if spec'd for DW
deathson10
Also dont mine out the entire cave. Leave 1 node and come back in a day, it willrespawn much quicker than mining it all out.

Mine faster. Eh. What about mine fewer?

What about Mein Führer?
AliBarber
This is priceless info.
AWeirdnamethatithoughtwasalreadytaken
Hey, gotta get that iron ore somehow. A slightly more valuable piece of info. I think the mine in the Eastmarch orc stronghold is ebony ore.

Save for future Skyrim use

You can kill Astrid when you first meet her when she tells you to kill one of the three people she kidnapped, then get a quest 2 kill the DB
motorwaffle
Roleplayed a good character my first runthrough and did this.
Sephority
She's pretty tough
supremedeer
I loved that option. It felt good to kill the whole brotherhood as a Fire Mage.
supremedeer
That was so much fun, honestly. I felt good killing the whole brotherhood as a Fire Mage.
tbirds569
I remember the first time I played and saw Astrid in the cabin. I really didn't feel like killing those people so I used unrelenting force 1
tbirds569
On her and just killed her. Didn't even know I could join the DB
tafkae
I did this on accident my first playthrough. Like, I didn't want to kill any of the others so I was just like "ok I'll just kill YOU"
irishPEDOelf
When i first started this quest line, at the cabin i pickpocketed her blade of woe and then at the end where she gives it to you she gave(1)
irishPEDOelf
me another one :D
channelranger
She even congratulates you, since she said "someone has to die for you to leave this room", and she appreciates good snark.
Shewy92
At first I killed all 3, couldn't find her, reloaded, found her, killed her and took her cool clothes and key...then killed all three again
Gaehhn
I just stole all her stuff, including weapons and clothes. I have two knives of woe now. And multiple sets of DB Armour.
iAintNoSynthDammit
i love how the quest name is "FAIL SITHIS" instead of "HAIL SITHIS" when you do this
ADFluffy
During my very first Skyrim play through I gave a lot of thought as to who I should kill. An idea came to me and ,thinking I was clever 1/2
ADFluffy
I attacked Astrid. Holy fuck was that a mistake. She was so much stronger than me, but I had already completed the Companions quest line 2/3
ADFluffy
So I was a werewolf. I transformed and used the werewolf howl to keep her from killing me while I killed and ate the other 3 people in 3/4
ADFluffy
the room. After the deed was done, I got the notification that I had failed "Joining the Dark Brotherhood" and gained 4/5
ADFluffy
"Destroy the Dark Brotherhood". FML 5/5
Chrichelle
I wouldn't recommend it though, you miss out on a lot of cool dialogue, loot, and storyline. Unless you are past your first playthough
borgmaster
Can confirm played through it once and on my alt i realized i didn't want to do all that shit again. Got that DB killing gold.
Chrichelle
lol, I would do it just so i dont miss out on getting cicero and windshear.
borgmaster
I wasnt sadist enough for that whole questline. Neither of those items appealed to me.
Chrichelle
windshear is good for when you dont feel like fighting something, but it decides to annoy you anyway. :P
homoerection
Who is Astrid? Oh god, I love this game but I'm such a newb....
OneBigPotato
Astrid is the leader of the Dark Brotherhood!
QueenCousland
Go to Windhelm, get into the house of Aventus Aretino. Sleep every so often, there's something that's only triggered if you do. Hail Sithis.
homoerection
Will do! Thanks!
JeanClaudeVanDamnIt
Travel to the 3 standing stones by Riverwood and there is a hunter down the hill with a bed you can use if your low level.
homoerection
Awesome, thanks!
FusRoDoodles
This I did not know. I always assumed she was essential, so I avoided the quest on 'good' guys.
LJashin
"Good" characters should always join the brotherhood for the fact that the story line ends with you killing the weak and cowardly emporer1/2
LJashin
SKYRIM BELONGS TO THE NORDS!
ProfoundTaco
Damn milk drinkers!
AccidentProneTheSecond
Yeah, you also get more of a chance for the DB to attack you in random encounters
Thoraxe123
Yea then when you kill them, you can find a note on then that has your contract
newsguycraigevans
They have you assault the DB. Then you get a small reward. And it's really anticlimactic.
AccidentProneTheSecond
It's pretty much just one quest where you take out most of the DB. Anticlimactic is an understatement tbh
ReverendAurora
And not worth it for the pittance you get.
Alighierian
it's something to do after you saved for the giggles, before reverting the save to actually progress
ButWhatIfTheresBears
If you're deciding between the two whilst reading this, join the DB over killing Astrid. The story is awesome and the rewards even more so.
FusRoDoodles
Oh yeah, I loved doing the Brotherhood. Just sometimes you have characters that wouldn't exactly be assassins.
Armored0Titan0
Best storyline in-game imo.
AmandaConrad
I always did the DB quest line because of Shadowmere. Free awesome horse that battles with you and has an insane healthpool.
XJDAN
Also something awesome: Killing Cicero
forgotmyokdpasswordsohereweare
He's good as a dragon distraction
catleesimotherofkittens
One time Shadowmere died in my game and he never respawned RIP :(
Bstone1
Don't forget if Shadowmere does die she respawns after a week.
OrangeFlavours
Ghost horse best horse.
SalvationIsHere
Arvak from Soul Cairn
OrangeFlavours
Ye.
jackmanlol66
Shadowmere doesn't actually have an insane health pool, only insane health regen.
jiynxed
yeah in my game that i have him, he dies basically any time anyone starts fighting me.
HUGEFUCKINWEEB
But doesn't he respawn after 3 days or something in the pool by the sanctuary?
Armored0Titan0
Plus like 3x the stamina of normal horses.
Acrossbetweenabunnyandeeyore
He... umm... fell off a mountain...
knightmair
He's supposed to respawn after a few skyrim days and go to the dark brotherhood
