I played this game for so long that I ended up making a custom spell for the sole purpose of reducing Mehrunes Dagon's health to nothing. Just wanted to see what happened. It did every type of damage, plus weaknesses, and all of it was maxed out. Named it Divine Bitch-Slap. Had to use a bunch of fortifications to even use it. And, during that ending bit where he's stomping through the city, I fired off that spell...and dude kinda melted... Seriously... Didn't die though, obviously. The game won't allow that. He just sorta melted into this weird semi-recognizable puddle of himself for a few seconds, then reformed and resumed his rampage.✌️

So I was stuck to being invisible forever. This game is truly a experience.

[@Otakupatriot117]

I always take vampirism as it comes up in the dark brotherhood and cure it after finishing the questline. To me that's the perfect amount of time to see every mechanic and it not get too boring and frustrating. I love how the amount of sun damage actually depends on the weather and time of day, not just your vampirism level. Skyrim really took it a step backwards having vampirism kick in before the sun even rises, in the coldest part of the map with grey clouds blocking the sky. People with actual sun allergies have backed me up in saying that a vampire would be right at home in Skyrim.

[@exantiuse497]

In real life, near the poles, in the winter the days are short, but in the summer they're actually long. If you go far enough to the north the sun never goes down in summer months Now, Skyrim represents Scandinavia/Nordic countries which are near the North pole. If TES universe works the same way, it means that Skyrim's winters are great for vampires but summers are actually terrible. Up to a whole month with no night at all and several months where night is only a few hours long. How is a vampire supposed to feed in that time? I don't know the exact way the sun affects vampires in TES lore (lore can be different from game mechanics so it may be different from how our character is affected in-game), but in other stories (e.g. Dracula) even the slightest ray of sunshine is harmful to the vampire, no matter if there are clouds in the way. Even sunlight directed at the vampire with a mirror is enough to kill it in some stories. So the cloudy weather of Skyrim isn't necessarily any good for its vampires, they don't want to go out at daytime no matter what

[@SwollaG7]

​@@exantiuse497 the relative closeness/distance of Skyrim to the north pole isn't stated in any Elder Scrolls game as far as I know. however, most speculative maps of Nirn put the continent of Atmora in place of the Arctic circle. latitude-wise, Skyrim is more like southern Canada, so I don't think it would suffer from axial tilt that much. I definitely agree with markwest that oblivion did the sun allergy mechanics better. unfortunately, imo vampirism in TES has always felt like a game design afterthought

[@coralimes3074]

really skyrim took a step back in every way it could, less skills, less spells, less mechanics in general and especially less roleplaying

[@arnaudbouret5562]

I'd enjoyed the surprise of being turned into a vampire a bit out of the blue in Daggerfall. In that one, if you got infected and slept for a bit afterwards but within three days after, you got a quick dream scene; and eventually, you "died" and woke up at night in a tomb. I had no idea why I'd gotten the cutscene at first, and searching the Internet wasn't really a thing yet, so waking up as a vampire in a tomb three days later came as a genuine surprise. I'd liked that surprise and experience, and it made me interested in trying vampirism mechanics in the following TES games. No cute cutscene in III, IV and V, though. In Oblivion, as it happens, I met a vampire in a side quest rather quickly, well before going through Kvatch in my first playthrough (I think I was level 4). Nevertheless, a long-duration, slow heal custom spell essentially removed the issue of taking sun damage very quickly. It meant only upsides unless I let vampirism progress to stage IV and entered cities (and since it can only progress from you voluntarily initiating a transition, that's not happening unless you decide it does). Well, stage II+ also meant no fast travel, but I never used that anyway. Never fast traveling is how I even made the detour to Kvatch in the first place - I'd gone up there hoping to buy a grand soul gem from the Mages' guild it would have probably had if it had been still standing, so that part of the main quest, in what was my first run, came as a bit of a surprise, and I stumbled into it because I was looking for five grand soul gems to cure that vampirism. Had fun after that, since I was at stage II vampirism and the sun was just rising when I began the escort quest for Martin, which meant the whole trip was spent taking sun damage and regularly casting heal spells, finally arriving in Bruma at dusk - imagine standing around in front of the Blades just after bringing the final Septim to them, standing with flecks of ash floating away from your body in the wind while Martin is being honoured and you, his silent protector, stand defiant of the pain you endure and relish what you've just survived and accomplished. That visual wasn't implemented, of course, nor any specific narrative, but why play a RPG if you aren't going to let your imagination play a bit ;)

[@nathanjohnston9762]

Interesting note: Because you were a vampire when you brought martin to cloud ruler temple, your Bruma hero statue actually WOULD burn in sunlight. I was playing with a 100% chameleon armor set when I took martin to the temple, and my statue was invisible as a result 😂

[@nathanjohnston9762]

@@NohRoom it's really common for guards to turn on one another in kvatch because they accidentally hit each other. Just like they have a disposition towards the player, they have a disposition toward one another. If one guard hits another one too many times, too quickly, then they all turn on each other just like allies turn on the player. One guy gets fed up, and kills another, then the rest of the guards get mad at the murderer, and it keeps happening until the remaining guards like each other enough to not keep the madness going. Surprising you've never seen this madness. There's an argonian in one of the cities who usually gets caught stealing food, and sets off the same thing.

[@naboost9485]

@@Dovah_Slayer I'm curious, how do you manage to get over 100 attributes without any external bonuses. You're supposed to be capped at a hundred. Maybe it's a cheese or something ? Also, yes, starving yourself as a vampire is supposed to make you stronger . mortal blood is the only thing that partly lifts the curse. Making you more mortal than vampire. As you starve the mortal part of you fades away and the only thing remaining is the vampiric curse , the source of your power is thus purer. Addressing the inchantment part when you argue that it's much better to equip a whole shield to prevent yourself from being paralyzed is better than an actual good piece of equipment,well,I strongly disagree for reasons I just stated, why would you waste and equipment slot for something you can get passively while keeping in mind that all stages of vampirism gives that immunity to paralysis. Your not even forced to get the sun damage to get it. Additionaly a paralysis spell or inchantment isn't the only way to get paralysed, while on early game it pretty much is, in late game even the bandits you encounter are skilled to the point their attacks can get you paralyzed. It has the advantage of keeping your magicka for something more useful too. Being a vampire doesn't give you exclusive superpowers, given enough effort, every character can theorically get the bonuses of vampires without the downsides at least temporarily, it's just a nice pile of passive advantages and disadvantages you add up to your character, when you do play as a vampire however you get to relocate those ressources you would have otherwise spent on getting the immunity to paralysis, resistance to weapons , bonuses to attributes and skills ect ... elsewhere, wich is really handy. Not gonna lie it is inconvenient at times (thinking about you fast travel ) but it is convenient at others. To me the outcome is very much worth it.

[@Dovah_Slayer]

@naboost9485 There is supposed to be a cap, but I've found that with the enchantment exploit, caps don't matter (and with that exploit, you actually don't take up a gear slot) which of course loops back around to making the vampire advantages irrelevant I will say though the passive bonuses in my modded playthrough (which now has no sun damage and reverse progression) doing little to no exploits being a vampire is finally worth it but that sun damage and stage 4 guard hostility are both deal breakers for me (because i like to be as powerful as possible when i play a vampire character in any game) and the fact that the cure quest can just break making it impossible (without cheating in the console) to cure is really just the biggest slap in the face ( the part where you have to talk to the count to cure his wife can also break......yay, oh Oblivion you buggy fucking mess we love you)

Awesome game I played thousands of hours exploring everything and still load it up when I am feeling nostalgic.

The heart transition after Lucien Lachance showed up was hilarious. I hit the like button and subscribed right then and there.

[@NKCS7]

Vampirism is OP, no clue how anyone would think otherwise. Daylight is easy to avoid through feeding or waiting in buildings.

thank you juggy, your videos make me happy.

Brings me back to my own oblivion days. I remember finally getting to level 20 without cheesing only to walk out of a door one day and lose all my health. I was clueless until i finally checked my status effects and was a vamp😢

[@Rubbly]

This rides a fine line between absurdity and optimization, I love it! That part at 1:55 was hilarious haha

[@mashedpotatos3750]

Bro you should do a run where you see how far you can get in evh questline if you were to keep all essential npc's following you the whole game. Like martin, jeffory, ulrich kekand, robert jermane, etc. You can end up with n entire possee of unkillble npc's

Dude I can’t believe ur just now about to hit 1k bro, you had me cracking up the entire time, awesome video my guy!

I think it's safe to say we all thought it was going to be really fucking awesome and then had to wait outside for the mythic dawn quest and kept burning to death

I laugh I sub and damn did the line “close shut the jaws of the elderscorlls 4 oblivion” make me laugh

[@smarks6779]

Made the mistake of putting on the gauntlets of gluttony while I was a vampire in one playthrough. Killed me so fast that between the loading screen and actually getting in game I sorta soft locked. I reloaded to before I even got vampirism

[@demonic_myst4503]

Why would put them on ever 15 strengh for 30 health drain is not worth it

[@smarks6779]

@@demonic_myst4503 it was like my 2nd playthrough didn't know much about it just threw stuff on.

Love these runs bro. The emperor saying elder scrolls 4: oblivion killed me XD

lol i literally stopped playing after i saw the requirements to cure Vampirism.

It means so much to me that someone is still making Oblivion content even just a year ago

[@brandonsees4779]

The fact that you named this video this because of the Yt algorithm, immediately had me hittin subscribe

[@huiledenoix8014]

problem with vampirisms in oblivion is that the buffs count as your normal stats, so you can't raise those stats past 95. But it is quite something powerful with a balance between constraints and benefits. It makes you superhuman, but with vulnerabilities. Better than in skyrim where you have very little constraint and very little benefits. If your character has a lot of health, sun damage is a neglectible debuff and no real danger.

[@nathanjohnston9762]

by using damage attribute on yourself, it's possible to bring all stats and skills in oblivion to any number you want.

[@christhethinker6791]

Being a vampire is pretty worth it if you are a mage

[@ProxyGateTactician]

Enjoyed the video a lot! Thanks for posting. You should keep uloading Juggy

[@YungChamu]

WE LOVE JUGGY

[@YungChamu]

First by the way

[@FiftyFiveEyes]

I'm amazed at the fact that not only i find new oblivion videos in 2024 but they are also good.

[@Thedeepesttruth]

If you used the enchanter to make urself 100 % chameleon you would be fine in the sun if I remember correctly. And why not have either a strong self heal spell, or absorb heath spell? Lot of ways to work around the the sun issue as a vampire.

[@Dovah_Slayer]

there's not enough strong spells to outdo the damage of the stage 4 damage (i've tried to make vampirism work once when i accidentally became a vampire and the fucking cure quest broke and couldn't (this was on console so i was SOL)) at least not ones that have reasonable magicka costs you're better off ignoring vampirism in Oblivion all together always carry cure disease potions unless you want to play oblivion in the worst way possible

[@Thedeepesttruth]

@@Dovah_Slayer From what I remember you can wear pants shirt helmet necklace ring and boots. Enchant each with 15% chameleon. You can then be totally unreadable to ai. U can commit crimes and not get caught, can pickpocket anyone, and avoid sun damage. That’s what I meant by enchant. It’s basically totally invisibility but you can move and interact. And can’t you put two enchantment on gear? So you can do that and boost magicka boost regen boost health regen, boost stamina regen and like feather. I think there was a gear and ring glitch wear you could wear many rings that you enchanted at once. My character ended up with 5k magica and immortal and super fast.

[@Dovah_Slayer]

@@Thedeepesttruth ah yeah I tend to avoid exploits in these games I personally believe any system that is only fun with exploits is a bad system (which is also why I only played morrowind once everyone says "use exploits until you figure out how the game works" and im like no thats not something i want to do and because of that morrowind is simply too hard for me to enjoy)

[@sklsdjf]

@@Dovah_Slayer enchanting all armor slots isn't an exploit, but yeah the ring glitch and stuff is. I'm also not sure why chameleon would protect from sun damage.. but even if you didn't have 100% chameleon, you can still use enchants to the best of your ability for other stuff and just not go in the sun. or drink blood to revert to an earlier stage of vampirism and take less damage from it.. there's plenty of ways to legitimately use the tools the game gives you, this dude was just making it unnecessarily hard bc that's the point of the video

[@Thedeepesttruth]

@@Dovah_Slayer I get it especially for first play through or challenges or like to make content. I usually always play the game traditionally then do second play through with a walk through to get all quests and secrets and abilities. Then if I’m still into the game after then is when I go for exploits to make it more fun and see what the limits are or how godlike/powerful you can get. It’s been like 12 years since I last played Oblivion, I got that game when if first game out on PS3 the first month of its release! In 2006 2007. Fun times. For the vampire there are some less exploitative tricks like always traveling at night and use stealth to hid in homes and caves. If I am remembering correctly as long as you have some type of shelter over your head it will protect you. Finally you can totally craft a spell that fortifies your health and heals yourself over time. The spell crafting is something I miss so bad in elders scrolls now. That was the original reason I used cheats to become god like so I could actually craft insane spells that I could actually cast for like 2000 magicka cost! I also found out you can make destruction spell on self for 1 point and spam it to build levels, or use a one sec summon on strong daedra to easily level up conjugations. There are a lot of work arounds for most magic skills.

[@dstillwell66]

Love your sense of humor always cracks me up haha

[@radioactivetoaster9369]

[@AetigmaFacade]

I never fed as a vampire gained about 87 levels without feeding. Your stats increase when u don’t feed. I think I had 862 strength. 650ish endurance and like, 500ish stamina. You literally become a super Saiyan. In oblivion when you kill some one (the actual killing blow) all excess damage is turned into physics, throwing the lifeless corpse. Needless to say, unless I was in a dungeon or building…. They’re body would just fly away like 6 miles. Sometimes traveling I would just find corpses of people I killed months ago. Vampires are OP

[@A_random_Khajiit]

This is a great video, man. Keep up the good work bro.

[@KnownAsKenji]

Kinda funny that Vampirism in Oblivion is such a s$)# mechanic that it's considered a challenge run.

[@sklsdjf]

I mean, he wasn't exactly using the mechanic fully. he was playing as a stage 4 vampire only, if u just drink blood it's not that bad lmao. plus u get huge perks when ur not in the sun

[@barrybend7189]

17:54 one of the best items for the deadric item sacrifice is Marune's Razor. If you can grab it from the Cult meeting ( it is difficult) you can sacrifice it and Martin gives a remark saying it's ironic it's this object.

I got a love/hate thing going on with Vampirism. While it gives great buffs and sets up interesting ways to play the game, I’m still traumatized from the time I got stuck reloading an auto save and scrambling to get out of the daylight before it kills me. Fun times.

[@DaemonPrince]

3:37 this is exactly why I hate Bethesda's take on vampire powers and why I use mods to enhance and the powers work as the opposite where feeding grants you more. Feeding effectively makes you no different from base besides the fact that you now have a passive weakness to fire and slightly higher stats.
