Wouldn't have wanted to live in Windhelm either if it wasn't such a badass house with an Armory. I used to stay in Solitude before I left and lived in Markarth. More display and storage spaces than Solitude.

Besides, there's a bug in the Solitude house which makes your wife sleep on the bedroll in the basement and not in your bedroom.
 
Markarth is my favorite house. Ended up trying all of them. The Windhelm house has...uh...issues... too. Let's just say the previous landlord didn't completely clean up after the previous occupant. ;)
 
I had that quest bugged too but managed to complete it in a strange way -- what part are you stuck on (maybe put in hide tags for spoilers)
I got stuck when you investigate clues, it never added the quest update when I found the body by the graves. It said 'Investgate the body' but nothing would get that to work (uesp said it should have happened already) - and then the Jarl's assistant or w/e wouldn't tell me any clues... :(
just curious what you side you guys decided to go with. my character is a nord so i sided with the stormcloaks. for me i did not see any thing racist or whatever other people have been saying about them. i just saw it as they were there first so to speak end then the empire came in and took it away from them. plus i like being a rebel:D

so what do you guys think?
;)
Ocn outta the evo (or 3d) forums!?!? :D

I went with stormcloaks for my nord, the ka'jait may side with the empire - not sure yet ;)
 
You can costumise your house by holding E on an object and you can easily move it. I have a question. I finished all the quests from the mage collage and i got the Arch Mage robe and Morokei mask from a dongeon. Whenever i wear both of them my head is bugged (disspears). It is only me or it's a glitch from the game?
 
Depends on what you want customized. You can't add display cases that easily LOL. Although I have lots of stuff displayed (Troll skulls, Centurion Dynamo cores, Daedric Artifacts, Blades of the Holds....) I haven't finished the Mage College quest yet. I left that for last. LOL, nor have I found Morokei Dragon mask, but so far using Dark Brotherhood robes or Thieves guild armors, dragon masks work fine for me.
 
With Arch Mage robe and Morokei + 100 enchenting skill (two enchs on every item) you're kinda invincible and the game gets boring lol... i can beat a dragon in less then 30 seconds and i'm only lvl 47...

Thats a bit fast? Ordinary dragon not the Ancient or Elder ones? If an Ordinary Dragon, I can kill it with my bow in 5-6 shots (450 damage + 31 fire and 31 shock damage). That would probably be around 30 seconds as well. Once I dragon rend the thing it wont go up again.

Although it may also be on the difficulty. Default difficulty is adept, and I am on Master.
 
Today i killed a Blood Dragon very easy,.. the dragon didn't even menage to land more than two times... i can record a dragon fight if you want to ;)
 
The Dragon kills are easy. I can tank their shouts. What irks me is when they don't land. In my case they do like swoops and breath frost/fire but don't stop. Its a bit harder to hit a flying dragon with a bow than with Magicka (you seem to be a mage type) especially when they change directions in mid air. Waste of arrows. Once they land though, they're as good as dead.
 
Yes i am imperial mage... i have all my items enchented with two enchs.. magicka or magicka regeneration so i barely use potions in a fight... and yes it's easier for a mage to aim a dragon while flying because i can shoot two fireballs/firebolts at a time while you can shoot only one arrow and it takes some time to shoot the second one.
 
That's why Dragonrend was such a blessing when I got it. LOL. I can force them down. LOL.

I do have uber enchanted/smithed armor/weapons though. (made fortify alchemy equip, then made fortify enchanting pots to make even better fortify alchemy equip to make better fortify enchanting pots to make awesome fortify smithing equip and fortify alchemy equip for great fortify smithing pots.) LOL.

I plan to play as a mage on my second playthrough (made mistakes on my first, so some quests became inaccessible). Although I thought of a cool build that would make playing the character difficult IMO. I will make a mage with no Destruction skill. LOL.

Conjuration for offense, Illusion and Alteration for buffs. LOL. I wonder how long I could last trying to play with that.
 
I only added perks in Restoration (for magicka and magicka regeneration bonus up to 50%) and destruction for bonus damage at fire/frost/shock spells.. i have illusion 100 but i don't have only like two perks on it.
 
LOL. I play mostly sneak archer and I got like 60+ in illusion, conjuration and alteration but no perks in them LOL. Illusion is useful if you're trying to play sneak, the muffle spell perk seems useful.

I got archery, smithing, enchanting, sneak and lockpick at 100 though. LOL.
 
Lol that's how i got Illusion skill 100.. I'm telling you, whenever you have to walk to a destination spam muffle and you will gain skill. I used Equilibrium (Conjures health in mana) in one hand and Heal in other and that's how i got my skill in Restoration lol... there are a lot of usefull tricks in Skyrim.
 
I always muffle LOL. I really find it funny when they're running around like headless chickens in the room looking for the archer that's picking them off 1 shot each. LOL.
 
I always wondered how do you own a dragon while you are a warrior... no range attacks no spells... i mean everytime the dragon lands if have to walk close to it and hit it, lol that is stupid..
 
Archery. You just need the increase damage perks and the crit perks and you're good to go. Unless they plan on playing Conan the barbarian style. So you use your horse to keep it busy while you hack from behind. That's difficult in Master level, the Dragons use their "moneyshot move" on humans quite often, where they bite you, wave you around in the air and you fall dead. Out of three dragons I tried facing face up, 2 did that to me when I had full life.
 
Sounds intersting but warriors aren't my style... i prefer thieves/rogues or mages (in my case). On the other games i played (wow, lol) i played only stealth characters and i wanted to test how's the mage doing.
 
I recorded a battle... me vs 3 mammoths, two giants and a dragon... it's now uploading to youtube xD...
 
I can't for the life me get how to record a battle. LOL. Now Giants are easy meat...3 or 2 shots... 1 shot if I was sneaking. However my defense is a little weak. I just use nightingale set coz it looks badass. LOL.
 
I got stuck when you investigate clues, it never added the quest update when I found the body by the graves. It said 'Investgate the body' but nothing would get that to work (uesp said it should have happened already) - and then the Jarl's assistant or w/e wouldn't tell me any clues... :(

I think this might help but not sure
Talk to the people in the inn/tavern and/or the mage in the main castle. Also, follow the blood spatters on the ground there.
