I wish I hadn't finished the main quest before doing everything else for what it's worth.

I'm done like four/five questlines in it. I'm probably a little more than half way.

I've spent the last 3 hours reading about the snow elfs and the dwarfs. like I've said before, it would be so awesome if they bring them back in the next game.

I just got my Smithing up to 100 and made some Dragonplate (Legendary) Armor. After that I have been just getting some Daedric artifacts.

[Caddy]

Smithing level 100??? IBC in beast mode. My smithing is like 25 :(

[Pit Bull #53]

I started a Nord 2 handed heavy armor specialist...currently working on smithing, about to hit 90. Hoping to be 100 before the night is up

[ElectricEye]

Yeah, I maxed out smithing a long time ago. I didn't like the appearance of the Daedric or Dragonplate stuff though, so I learned the Smith buff for enchanting and made a set of armor just for it and upgraded the Ebony stuff. Like the aesthetics of that one much more. Got the defense value to be a good 30+ points ahead of what Legendary Dragonplate was too.

[ImBrotherCain]

Yea I have been preaching about Smithing through out the thread... You can easily be level 25 with max level armor. EE just beat me too 100 and gave me the drive to get there. I just bought any iron i could rind and made hundreds upon hundreds of iron daggers.

I need to start mining Ebony so I can make Daedric armor. I personally like the look of the Daedric compared to previous games from what I have seen of it which is very little.. Dragonplate is meh appearance wise. I am just not a huge fan. Though I will be wearing it until. Ebony is sleek from what I can tell through the crafting menu. Its almost Black Knight ish.

[ElectricEye]

The Daedric stuff is cool looking...it's just, well, rather evil looking. Didn't line up with the type of character I wanted the play. The Ebony "Black Knight" stuff doesn't really either but it certainly lines up better than that haha. Mostly, it just looks damn cool.

Did you guys chose a side in the Civil War thing yet?

[ImBrotherCain]

I haven't chose yet but I am leaning toward the Stormcloaks.

Also yes the Daedric armor does look quite sinister but... there is really no morality in this game so evil looking it is lol

I initially chose the Imperials and then loaded a previous save. I had a real hard time making the choice, but I eventually went Stormcloaks. I didn't really think either side had it directly right, but the Empire getting pushed around by the Dominion didn't really seem to be changing anytime soon.

**** the Thalmors.

[Brent]

I went with the Stormcloaks. When in Skyrim, do as the Nords do.

[nepg]

I D:'d after I learned something about Ulfric.

[ImBrotherCain]

Well now I basically have a full set of Daedric Armor... I just need one more heart to get the shield. I already had the Waraxe

[Brent]

any tips on where I can find a daedric sword as a level 17?

[ImBrotherCain]

Smithing is really the only way I know of.

[Pit Bull #53]

Going with the daedric armor too. Still need another heart to finish out my last piece. Went with the battle axe for weapon.

[WinslowBodden]

im too busy getting ass raped in dark souls to play this game :{

[Bulldogs]

You guys have it right, Smithing is pretty damn essential. Got myself a nice Daedric bow, now I just got to enchant the thing. I'm 100 in Smithing, Archery, and Sneak. So easy to sneak up on some enemies and one shot them with the bow, definitely a bad ass feeling.

I'm a nord but I'm siding with the Imperials.

[Prowler]

I'm an imperial but I have not fought a single battle or joined a side. I have not involved myself in the war. I've walked the ''peaceful unification so we can all not die by dragons" route. If I did join, I would join the Stormcloaks. FOR TALOS!!! I do kill every Thalmor that I see now.

I have 100 smithing and 100 enchanting. I have full Dragonplate armor...on a mage...I have it all double enchanted so I get all the perks of Mage lite armor...except now Im a super mage tank!

[Jughead10]

If I get off work early today, I'm going to go pick up my PS3 at my place before I go home for Thanksgiving. I originally decided not to bring it, but after reading more of this thread this morning, I realized I made a poor choice.

Haha thats sweet... You should have done it on Daedric... you would have looked so much more bad ass.
