You forgot one absolutely broken provided you have around 600 magicka. First level up your illusion with the muffle spell method to 90. At that point, do the master illusion quest at the college to get the harmony spell. Then go to a crowded place like an inn and just spam the spell. Your level will skyrocket. For instance, with a dozen people around you and your illusion back at level 15 (when you make the skill legendary), just ONE harmony spell gets your illusion in the level 40's. It's absolutely insane, it took me like 10 min for my character to grow by 30 levels. And if you don't have enough magicka, use the spell call to arms, it makes you grow a little slower but costs less.

Smithing+Alchemy+Enchanting: Raise Enchanting 30+ & Alchemy 40+(buy Perks). Then make +%Alchemy gear (early +12%Alchemy necklace from an alchemist Quest & Falmer masks can be worn with crowns for an extra Enchantment slot). Trade the potions you make, for the training you need. (Salmon Roe + Garlic + Nordic Barnicles 30ish each, is a very good way to get started, these potions are absurdly valuable.) (save 1 of each for the end for instant 100 Alchemy.) Next: Restoration Potions Glitch (these potions improve +%armour benefits -- Remove armour, Drink Resto potion, Get Dressed, make Resto Potion, Repeat.) Then make whatever potions you can. This will power level Alchemy to about 80 fast. (Fish barrels in Riften are fantastic for Resto ingredients) Make +%Enchant potions along the way, to make better +%Alchemy gear. (Takes about +50% Alchemy Gear at level 40ish to achieve the cascading Resto-Potion +% effect) Now you are rich, your Alchemy is maxed... Make one more insanely high Restoration Potion, to make 1 ridiculous Smithy Potion (GlowShroom+Blisterwart). Make 1 lowly dagger. Drink 100000%+ Smithy Potion, Sharpen Dagger to Insane. Congrats on 100 Smithing. Enchant dagger with Soultrap 1 second. Get a bunch of Gems, insta-kill Giants, People, whatever, get enchanting to 100. Enchant->Alchemy->Enchant->Alchemy->Smithy->Enchant

Whoa! Speak for yourself bud, smithing was my favorite activity for my first 5 characters. Mind you, I was disappointed the lumber mill didn’t have a quest line…

[@dustylonefox4804]

One trick i use, although slower, is casting any of the Alteration Flesh spells, then stand in front of the beam of light in Meridia's temple. It actively gives exp per hit, and that beam hits a lot. I will add that i use the mod Invested Magicka, which may change how they work, but could be interesting

[@lousygaming8220]

Use the restoration loop to level alchemy, make a ring that buffs your alchemy and smithing by around 100,000%, create daggers that do a ton of damage to instantly level smithing, sell what’s left to level speech, repeat.

[@tylerboyer277]

Use the restoration loop to level scheme, make a ring that buffs blacksmithing and alchemy. Create 2 light armor pieces and 2 heavy armor and a shield with ratings in the 100,000’s and a sword or dagger as well. Give your follower the sword and then begin fighting them. On hit with that sword and your heavy armor is maxed, one more and your light armor is maxed, throw up your shield and now your shield is maxed. 3 skills maxed in 5 seconds. That’s the fastest leveling method in Skyrim.

[@infinitedeath1384]

How would you survive it though? The maximum resistance to physical damage isn't 100% immunity.

[@infinitedeath1384]

You forgot 2 areas for leveling up sneak, either high hrothgar or the start of the game near the bear. In high hrothgar, simply sneak behind a greybeard and attack with a dagger, it increases the sneak skill very fast, way faster than the method you showed. The other way at the start of the game is the same. Sneak up behind either your stormcloak or imperial ally, when you've reached the objective where you reach the bear, and after he gives you a bow, you can go ahead and sneak attack him from behind. You can also get some levels in one handed at the same time, since hitting someone with a dagger will increase your one handed xp as well.

[@nv3363]

I did the grey beard method but he got up and started attacking me?

[@infinitedeath1384]

@@nv3363 He must have noticed you. You need to make sure the eye on your HUD is closed before you attack. If your sneak skill is low, a sneak attack will get him to notice you, so you have to wait a second before you can attack again. Once you've gained a few perks in sneak, you should be able to keep attacking without stopping. It's best to do it with a dagger too, because if you use a bigger weapon he might notice you, since it makes more noise. You should also do this after doing their little intro quest.

[@brandonvistan7444]

I've found that the soul trap exploit works on corpses as well.

[@Snowfall_201]

It does, I actually had the unofficial patch still installed by accident when I was making parts of the video so I thought it wasn't working anymore.

[@caseycockerham3925]

Love the Todd Howard name drop

[@ItzzzRhys]

You can do the destruction spell inbound storm I think hold both back triggers n fast travel to a area preferably where no NPcs are that can be killed where to get a bounty ..

[@brettmaxwell909]

Okay everybody ... Still playing Skyrim here, ... Quick question... On the Smithing speed level trick... Which is faster? A. The Iron Dagger exploit. B. The Transmute / Jewelry exploit. C. Just smithing building materials, which seems to level up smithing quickly as well. * Before answering, Please note, I asked which levels Smithing fastest, NOT which makes the most money. * * Also keep in mind, I am playing Anniversary Edition, DG, HF, etc. But NO MODS. & Have no interest in cheat mods.*

[@Lil_Clearout]

as it scales with the value of the item the jewelery is the fastest. If you do the duplicate method simply get some gemstones that greatly increase the value of the smithed jewelery to duplicate with your gold ingot. Takes about 50% less time that way.

[@joshuaarmstrong377]

KZbinr shork has the best video on how to get 100 smithing 30 minutes after leaving helgen

[@laithharrington4461]

I use fortify restoration loop to make a Godly potion of smithing and improve a weapon if you don't break the numbers limit it will take you to 100 instantly

[@legendarypureplatinumwitch6092]

Use restoration glitch to build an infinite health ring, equip 2 heavy armor and 2 light armor pieces on your set, get a shield, fortify a sword to make 1.000.000 damage and give it to a useless companion Bring your companion to an isolated place, and attack him until he start to attack you back .... with the God's sword of Rodd Toward Each hit will bring you instantaneous level 100 in ligh, heavy armor and block Then, keep reseting your skills and let your "friend" helping you leveling up

[@infinitedeath1384]

That sounds even faster than using the telekinesis trick.

[@guyjackson1839]

I can guarantee that level 1000+ character looked up the fastest ways to level up and just kept doing it nonstop

[@infinitedeath1384]

It's not even a good idea to level up that high, because certain enemies in the game scale with your level, like the magical anomalies and one of the frost giants in solstheim, I forgot his name.

[@Whykickamoocow]

Cool

[@davemac5074]

The levelers tower mod lets you level up in 3 minutes.

[@user-nx7gi4ok6k]

Where do I get the unbounded treating spell?

[@Snowfall_201]

Unbounded freezing* My voice isn't always very helpful. If you've got the creation it should be in hob's fall cave. I think they can also spawn in chests randomly, probably based on player level.

[@Damjansen]

Why not just use console commands, you are cheating anyways. For PC ofc..

[@supdota2]

console commands are not enabled on consoles iirc. also steam achievements are disabled if you use console. but yeah i personally don't care. i use advskill and additem all the time hahahah

[@Jagar_Tharn]

​@@supdota2 ironic lol

[@KPRoof]

Using the means provided by the game is not cheating, using console commands is cheating.

[@Jagar_Tharn]

@@KPRoof Exploiting glitches is pretty much equivalent to using the console.

[@KPRoof]

@@Jagar_Tharn Use Skyrim Unoficial Patch and many glitches are no longer available. I will play Skyrim on Legendary on my channel soon, I am curios to see if you find my smart play as "cheating"
