Did you see the "Money Glitch" on the same page? Very tempted...

[MartyG]

You don't need the money glitch, just level, any cave you come across then gives you loads of Septim. Besides it's cheating.

I've bought up all the houses today, and maxed them out from my cave and ruins hauls.

I've also started looking at alchemy and potions. I'm so weak willed that I make really crap ones, but I'm getting better.

Septim? I've found the caves so far to be tight when it comes to dishing out expensive treasure...

[SaijoBob]

I'm getting around 5,000 a cave now from loot and coinage, at level 18. It's easier to get more from areas with humainoid enemies though, as beasts don't seem to drop better stuff at high levels.

When your opponents start wielding Obsidian weapons and equipment, it's heavy bt you can haul a fair amount of it back with an ease burden spell.

I'm actually finding some of the "caves" heavy going and a bit dull...1st enemy weak, 2nd less-weak, 3rd comes with the 4th and you have to do the runaround til you heal...

One of the mages guild reccomendations I just couldn't be arsed with last night, I'll try again tomorrow probably

They certainly do get pretty repetitive, so I tend to only do a cave crawl if I have a quest there. I think I'll focus on doing the guild quests and main quests to get all my achievements, then if I still feel like playing the game go through and do the random stuff.

Thats pretty much my approach to things at the minute I only visit caves/ruins when I need the cash. I'm focusing on getting all the achievements at minute starting with the dark brotherhood quests some of the bonus stuff you get for them is great.

[Richard.John]

Is it possible for one hit kills with the bow? I tend to fire 10 or so before anything falls down.

I dont think it's possible at default difficulty even with stealth kills at least on humans or mostsers.

An Expert and Master of marksman have a couple of very nice perks though which will help you out.

[eastyy]

There is just so much to do

I have now become arch mage at the guild.I am now arena champion (can earn quite a bit of money at weekly fights) i hunt vampires for money.

And i have done quite a few missions for the dark brotherhood (some are really evil)

I'm having to pick up a new copy later today thanks to my 360 scratching my disc.

All I get now are insane load times and music skipping aplenty on certain parts of the map. It has to be the way the data is spread out over the disc.

No one mention the cache (I've stated I have cleared it a number of times).

Has to be the disc. Arse.

[Gareth C]

Mine is buggered too. Only just started it yesterday but I am at the first gate and the screen constantly shows a loading sign and runs at literally around 1FPS, oh and I have had no audio for the last half hour. This whole next gen business is starting to drive me insane.

[Concept]

Oblivion is the first game to make me think that the lack of a fixed specification with the 360 (HD/non-HD) has lead to a complete lack of stability in it. Some people don't report bugs, glitches or loading problems, whilst others are having a nightmare with it.

This, along with sorting out displays/televisions and finding it's not exactly straightforward to pick up a working screen... yes, I agree, this next-gen lack of solidity isn't what I was hoping for either.

[eastyy]

all these problems that people say about the x360 version its a bit to PC like to me.


I have similar problems with the pc version and the framerate is inconsistent to

For all the wannabe theifs,

The Shrine of Nocturnal provides the unbreakable lockpick (which also has a + 40 Security )

Its Located

->Open Spoiler<-

Walk out of Layawin (sp) through the east doors, cross the bridge and follow the path north. You'll pass ruins and a little town before coming to the Shrine. All these landmarks are east of the path.

You must be a level 10 to start the quest
