Free Iorn Arrows Go
to the arena in the Imperial city and watch the blue team archer shoot
arrows. Half the time you can go in there, the arrows the archers
shoots will be there and you can simply take them without being
labelled a thief. Naturally, you may want to save before attempting
this.
Performance Improvement Applicable
only to Xbox 360s with the HDD. Cold boot (power on) while holding the
GREEN button to clear the HDD's cache. This should reduce the game's
choppiness for a while.
Infinite Money Glitch In
the Talos district of the Imperial City is the house of a man named
Dorian. Enter the house and kill Dorian. When looting his body,
highlight his gold and press A...and keep on pressing. His gold will
never run out, giving you access to infinite funds. You can return to
Dorian's house to loot money later, but his corpse will disappear after
a few days.
Infinite Money Giltch #2 There's
another way to earn infinite money without having to do anything
illegal. Become a vampire and complete the Cure for Vampirism quest. At
the end of the quest, talk to the Count of Skingrad about "Reward" to
get the 1,000 gold reward. You can then continue to talk to the Count
about "Reward" to get 1,000 gold every time. Take advantage of this bug
quickly! When you're done talking to the Count, he'll head upstairs to
his chambers, which are heavily locked.
Stealing From Blind NPCs I
tested this on armor only, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work for
any item if it's large enough for your atavism to collide with it.
First off, go to any armor shop that has a piece of armor on display
that you want. Jump up onto the shop keep's counter and just run into
and knock the armor item off the counter. This is not illegal and no
one will care. Next, keep kicking it by running into it multiple
times until you have the item in a corner away from the view of the
shop keeper.
The shop owner will actually follow you around the
shop while you run about. Get him/her to follow you to the opposite end
of the store, then quickly run back to where you placed the armor item.
Use the sneak ability and pick it up before they see you. Bam - free
stuff!
Sneak Walk Increase (Requires Rufio) The
Inn of Ill Omen is located Northwest of Bravil along the road. In the
basement of it is a guy named Rufio. As long as you are reasonably
quiet he will sleep forever allowing you to sneak around the room
increasing the skill easily. Just put your guy facing a corner and rig
the stick to keep walking and you gain a new level roughly every minute
(early on). Note that if you killed Rufio as part of the Dark
Brotherhood's quest, you won't be able to use this exploit.
Sneak Walk Increase (Requires Armand) There
is a way for you to get your sneak skill to rise very quickly in the
game. When you have the option to join the theives guild by meeting
Armand at the Imperial Water Front garden around 11pm, accept his task.
He will offer you the option to buy lockpicks. Don't buy any. Go into
sneak mode and go behind him. Not only will you get the lockpicks from
him for free, you can also repeatedly pickpocket him to build up your
sneak skill and all he'll say is to go ahead, he doesn't need it anyway.
Arena Blindspot This
requires your acrobatics to be fairly high (always jump when travelling
to increase it), since you need to jump to a spot that's normally out
of reach. The blind spot is not immune to ranged weapons or spells, but
for the most part, you can take down enemy combatants with your ranged
weapons or spells without a loss.
Naturally, save your game
before you attempt this. As soon as the fight starts, run to the left.
There is a grey stone pillar, next to the gate. Just jump on and up
onto it, as high as you can. Often your opponent is there attacking you
so the force of the attack may actually push you onto the short pillar.
If
you do it right, you can stay perched up there, safely out of reach of
most melee fighters. You can proceed to destroy your opponents with
arrows or other ranged attacks at your disposal.
This Fight's Freaking Easy Having
trouble with strong monsters or opponents? Work a bit on your Alchemy
skill and learn to concoct potions to "Damage Health". Combine such
potions with your most potent weapon and hit your enemy a few times,
then run off and grin wryly while your quarry dies within minutes.
Rinse and repeat.
Increase Alteration There
is a manor in Anvil in which there is a hidden room in the basement
that only a member of the family who sold you the manor can open. You
may attempt to cast any spells that unlocks doors on the "portal" on
the wall (but it will never unlock). However, even failing will
increase your alteration skill and eventually you can reach 100.
Sigil Stone Picker The
gates generate a random plane of oblivion along with a random sigil
stone. Go through the tower all the way to the top, till you reach the
sigil stone. Simply save the game before the stone spawns and you can
re-randomize the stone by re-loading the game, if it's not to your
liking.
Item Cloning To
multiply items you must have two different types of arrows to make the
glitch work. You attack with the arrow, and when your character is
preparing the bow but it is not yet drawn back, press RED to bring up
the menu.
Go to weapons and equip another type of arrows by
pressing GREEN twice. Nothing should happen the first time except that
the new arrows should become selected and after pressing GREEN the
second time, there should be a message that says "this weapon can not
be equipped while attacking".
Then without closing the menu,
drop the item you want to duplicate and it should fall to the ground
and multiply randomly. Multiply magic or expensive items to gain fast
money.
This exploit multiplies the item cloned by the number of
arrows you have. Your second choice of arrow when the game tells you
"this weapon can not be equipped while attacking" will determine the
number of items spawned. For example, if you have 500 arrows stocked
for your second arrow choice, you will get 500 items. A high number
multipling may cause the Xbox 360 to freeze. Furthermore, you can
also clone the Sigil Stones you get from the Oblivion Planes, but not
certain items (like swords and armor).
Exploiting The Unicorn The
unicorn offers tranquility. It's also unseasonably warm. If you have a
uniorn, go to any city with a stable and stable the unicorn. Lock the
unicorn inside while you are outside. Draw your weapon and the unicorn
will get mad. A guard will go inside the stable and start attacking the
unicorn. Close the gate in after the guard while remaining outside. The
unicorn will kill the guard and you can loot the body.
Each
guard has a key to his respective city. You can then fast travel to a
different city and you can do it again. Some of the stables have a way
for the unicorn to get out, so beware. If the unicorn gets one attack
in, it will probably kill you. The only way to kill unicorns is with
daedric, magic, or silver weapons.
Increase Disposition Every Try If
you are trying to get a person to like you that has the persuasion
option when you talk to him you can incrase the maximum disposition
level a little bit more.
I've tested this trick out myself with
some Imperial city gaurds and it works as long as you keep trying with
the person until you reach the "Disposition Maxed" message on the
persausion menu.
All you need to do is talk to the person you
wish to persuade with your weapon DRAWN and then get him to like you
through the persuasion ability until the menu says "Disposition Maxed."
When you do that, simply stop talking to the character and put your
weapon away, when you then go to the persuasion menu and look at the
disposition level you will see it is somewhat higher (the maximum
possible disposition you can achieve through this secret is ten).
The amount you can get from this seems to depend on the NPC's
persuasion level and your charcters persuaion level and the NPC may
have a grudge with you or a bond with you from things you may have done
to help or hurt them or your charcter may have infamy and/or fame, or
the guild you belong in and your curent rank in that guild may affect
the way this person feels about you.
Note: Certain charcters aren't possible to persuade - mainly charcters involved with quests (for example Baurus of the Blades).
