Absorb HP spells from Mysticism are basically better than Destruction damage spells. I like to craft a spell with weakness to magicka first then absorb HP, it just melts enemies while healing yourself up.
@chriswhinery925 Жыл бұрын
Because of Bethesda's idiotic design choices Mysticism is basically the ONLY viable direct damage magic school in the late game because there are so many enemies that just reflect your spells back at you. At least with Absorb HP if your spell gets reflected you just hurt yourself and heal yourself for a net zero. If you use Destruction you just randomly kill yourself with your own spells.

@@rcschmidt668 enchantment, alongside alchemy, is the most powerfull tool you have access to. you dont even need to level destruction or any spell type, just enchantment is far superior to all of them. as you can put any spell in a ring, and it will hotkey it the same as a spell anyways. also, if you try to play some suboptmal caster, and not have any magicka multiplier, enchantment is the only real way to use spells, because you have so little magicka that its borderline useless. i went with a nord with str and endurance, and it was painfull trying to cast anything with that pitiful amount of magicka points you start with. and in morrowind you have to rest in order to regain them, waiting doesnt work. so its not that diferent from starting with the atronach birthsign. and you can buy a couple of spell rings in calmera for pretty cheap, and have a much more reliable damage dealing spell than if you started as a high elf with the atronach anyways.

Alchemy D tier? Yeah no. S tier easily. Same with enchant, S tier. Enchant every ring with a spell, and carry it around. It's stupidly easy to level up too; Fortify Alchemy/Enchant 100 pts for 1 sec, cost 10 MP. Now, Mysticism. S tier too, if only for the two types of teleport. Learn to chain interventions: for example, from Zainab, Divine intervention to Wolverine Hall, Mage guild to Vivec, then intervention to Ebonheart. But mysticism isn't limited to teleports; Absorb Fatigue on strike is my goto weapon enchantment. And the safest; Reflect? You mean I absorb my fatigue? Sure. Speaking of which, got a problem with mages? Not enough Reflect or Spell Absorption. BTW, Spell Absorption doesn't stack... well it does, but wierdly. Say you have 3 absorption on you, they don't add up, they each get a roll to absorb. Which can lead to interesting results, like a spell costing 10 and absorbing 30 magicka. Finally, Detect Key and Detect Enchantment are good. They're a waste of magicka, sure. But that's where Enchant comes in; "Where's my Key Ring" Detect Key, 100 ft for 1 sec. It holds 3 charges but by the time I'll have to use it again, I'll have rested back at home and it will be full again. And if not, well, I have another key ring. Find ring, enchant ring, use ring, sell ring for better ring, rinse and repeat.

@thegreatjambo1002 жыл бұрын
Here's my personal short skill strength tier list after thousands of hours of playing. For those who were also expecting that in the video.: Dagoth Ur Tier: - Alchemy (No comment needed) - Enchanting (Really good (Things like passive 100+ Sanctuary easy) but capped by enchanting capacity, which alchemy is not. Some Artifact enchantments go a lot higher than custom enchants.) - Illusion (Invisibility and Chameleon let you do whatever you want, wherever you want. Calm Enemy allows permanent sneak attacks. Turns you into a literal god unaffected by the mortal world when perfected.) A Tier: - Heavy Armor (Do yourself a favor and use Medium until you get strength enchants, after that Heavy has enough extra echanting points over light and medium to still have plenty left over after eliminating it's own weight through strength enchants) - Medium Armor (Ebony Mail, that's enough for A-Tier. Outside of that medium is good but mediocre with mostly the Royal Guard set. Missing any good shields and pants with ice being the strongest ones in those slots.) - Blunt Weapon (Sunder (one handed, more damage than a Dai-Katana, 1.5 Attack speed, insane enchants, stunlocking enemies with a tiny bit of practice)) - Restoration (Fortify Skill and Fortify Attribute are usually the most cost effective way to do boost anything (Be it physical damage, carry weight, armor, ... Restore health is very cost effective too if combined with a good defense.) - Mysticism (Obviously Dagoth Ur Tier when paired with alchemy. The better destruction since absorb health doesn't care about reflects. Couple really useful side effects with Recall, Soul Trap and Interventions.) - Athletics (Absolutely vital. Unless you go for the Boots of Blinding Speed, then you can skip leg day.) B Tier: - Alteration (Open and Levitate, rest is outclassed by other magic types but those 2 are essential. Slides down to D-Tier if you have the Boots of the Apostle and an Open 100 custom enchant) - Security (The alternative to Alteration for opening locks. Allows disarming traps if you can't facetank them.) - Destruction (Make sure you got 100% resistance against your own element or get roasted by reflection) - Block (Solid 50% damage reduction against everything you can block on higher levels. Doesn't block enchantments.) - Long Blade (A lot of strong Artifacts but nothing on Sunder Tier) - Light Armor (Only about 30-40 weight lighter than medium armor but massive decrease in defensive potential due to missing any remote counterpart to the Ebony Mail (Chest pieces make up 30% of the armor rating) along with Glass being slightly weaker than Royal Guard. Also has a couple less enchantment points than medium). - Mercantile (Buy cheaper than worth, sell higher than worth, trade every vendor down to 0 with his own stock lol.) C Tier: - Sneak (Not really needed with illusion effects but doesn't hurt either. Sneak attacks are a 4x multiplier if you spam them with Illusion.) - Short Blade - Axe (Best raw power Daedric Weapon, not taking into account attack speed or range) - Spear (Drain Strength or Levitation 1 on hit enchants make for stylish builds where melee enemies will never hit you) - Marksman - Conjuration (Golden Saints on maxed difficulty might die in 2 hits to sunder but they sure do look the part. Not affected by difficulty scaling. Style 100.) D Tier: - Unarmored (Falls a couple hundred armor short of wearing armor. Misses a lot of armor echants.) - Hand-to-Hand (~7.5 Damage per Hit lol. The Knockdown effect is really strong though if you pair it with something else. Use magic or enchants to drain endurance first.) - Acrobatics (Pretty useless for the most part, Levitation does the job of crossing the environment better) - Speechcraft (Just spam the 10 Gold bribe option and everyone will max out quickly once you have some basic fame) - Armorer (Easy to repair anything even with low armorer levels)

Mysticism deserve way more! Almsivi and Divine intervention and the duo Mark + Recall makes travel a lot easier and can save from dangerous situation by teleporting in safe places. And as other people said, absorb fatigue/magika are good to pair with other skills to take a tactical advantage, and absorb Health deals damage (like destruction "damage" or elemental offensive spells) while replenish users life. So there are also direct/indirect way of damaging the enemies in this skill. And there are the Spell absorbtion or reflect spell, that defend us from hostile magic while having other benefits (recharge mana or send back the spell to the caster), and Dispel is a must-have for any full or partial magic class, to avoid nerfs on us or buffs on enemies. Maybe the other colleges of magic are better, but no one deserve less than C tier... For the other skills, i don't want to suggest you thing, but i disagree in some other picks. However this only shows how easy is to play in different ways. For example i will put short blades and long blades above Axes and Blunt weapons, or Medium armor below Light and Heavy. Agree on Spears being a cool class of weapons (and their removal on Oblivion and Skyrim make me sad) and Merchant and Armorer being skills that deserve few attentions.

You are indeed correct sneak is broken. Unlike Oblivion and Skyrim, Morrowind performs a sneak check when trying to leave the pickpocket menu. This happens even if you succeed in stealing something, so you can still be caught. Because the maximum % chance to steal is 75%, this means your best chance to pickpocket is 56.25%, 75% chance to steal 75% chance to leave the menu.

the issue is, that argument still doesnt work, because alchemy allow you to deal with any issue. what's the point of having medium armor, and a mace, if you get hit a couple of times by a bonewalker and now have negative str? but look at that, you can just make a potion of restore str and that's no longer an issue! got infected with vampirism and you dont know how long you have until you transform? simple, make a cure diseases potion. alchemy has too many uses that go beyond the broken stuff. same with enchantment. enchantment allow you to use spells without having to bother leveling multiple skills, and int for the magicka. it can make your nord a far superior spell caster than a high elf/breton born with the atronach sign from the start of the game. you dont need to break the game, but the utility of having 1 levitate constant effect is just too good not to make use of. same with constant invisibility to not get bothered by the clif racers as you move around the world. you dont need much to make enchantment the superior choice for a caster. andthat's at base, before we start talking about how you can break the game with them. so yes, they are S tier.

I'd say armourer skill is actually pretty handy - doesn't require full investment, sure, but it is a decent convenience skill, if you can get to ~20 or something around that - especially once you gather some very expensive gear in time. Medium armor - the problem with it is lack of high tier medium sets. And the most common medium set is just slightly better than steel armour. Orcish armour is only about twice as good, but it is rather easy to obtain. Ebony Mail, which is probably the best chest armour in the game in general is also medium... So there is that. Heavy armour - honestly, it is just objectively a better choice than medium - some of the best artifacts in the game are heavy - Fists of Randagulf, Helm of Oreyn bearclaw, Dragonbone chestplate... You also get these Daedric Greaves and Cruirrass from Therana, with decent permanent feather enchantment. And even disregarding this - almost full set of ebony armour is absurdly easy to obtain. The only downside is the weight. One thing to note with weapons - weight - higher quality weapons tend to be... prohibitively heavy. So it is probably good to look for glass weapons. There are some decent picks in most weapon categories, except blunts, where you only have staff. Sure, glass weapons are not the most durable of the kind, but they are quite consistently close to the top when it comes to damage in all respective weapon types. They are a decent choice. Or just use bound weapons - probably the best option besides top-tier artifacts. Another thing - while axes got a short of the stick - Orcish Battleaxe is an interesting exception - with minimum chopping damage of 17 - it is pretty good spam attack weapon. Thing that makes enchanting worthwhile is charge cost - the higher your enchanting skill, the cheaper it is to cast spells from enchanted items - and if you can raise this somehow to 110... Enjoy casting any enchantment for just 1 charge. Destruction is fine... but it is simply, objectively better to have enchanted trinkets. This is generally true for most spells, BUT you will be casting far more destruction than anything else, and given pretty limited magicka supply... Unless you drink tons of potions. With that in mind - magic is just tons of utility - open lock and telekinesis basically invalidates lockpicking, charm invalidates speechcraft, and chameleon almost negates the need for sneaking. With various buffs you get mobility, healing, utility of all kind. Magic in general is a swiss army knife of this game - may not always be the most convenient to use, like smacking someone with a hammer, but it can do just about anything. Unarmored - a lot of people overlook it - but it had armour value comparable to Dwarven Armour - and weights nothing... And requires no maintainance. Too bad it is somewhat overshadowed by light armour - because you can get superior dark brotherhood set in like... 5 minutes of the game. Thieving skills - a lot of them get completely overshadowed by magic - that basically does the same... AND more. Hell, sneaking actually needs chameleon to work well - even with high sneaking, early missions still need savescumming... Which is kind of ass... And a lot of the guards and character are basically glued to their posts, so sneaking past them without chameleon or invisibility is questionable. Acrobatics is absolutely awesome mobility skill. Light armour... Is... weird. Lower grade sets are absolutely abysmal - chitin, netch and the like. And suddenly you jump from garbage like this to glass... which is pretty amazing - gives you protection just below ebony, for a tiny fraction of the weight. This is actually very good - but there also very little variety. Other than 2 artifact pairs of boots, and Saviour's Hide, there are no really good uniques either. Short blades... kind of suck for the most part, short swords are passable, I suppose. That said... They do have the highest on average minimal damage value - so if you like spamming attacks... they are a pretty good choice. That is also one strange situation where Daedric is not essentially the best option - ebony shortsword has the best spam attack of the bunch, if you want to make use of the speed of the weapon. Marksman - very, very good - but also pain in the ass with keeping you eye on ammo - bows and crossbows are very solid options for ranged combat - in comparison to magic, arrows and bolts simply move faster... And starting from roughly 40 levels in this skill, you should be hitting rather reliably if not fatigued. Mercantile - you have Crab and Creeper... Speechcraft - replaced with 100pts charm on touch for 2 seconds. Yep, entire skill replaced entirely by one spell. Hand to hand is unfortunately pretty bad - it works reasonably well when you fight single humanoid opponent, but damage it deals is pretty abysmal, so be ready to punch a lying enemy for good few minutes. The real problem lies in a fact that many, many mosnters have massive amounts of fatigue.

Blunt is my favourite because it inculudes: HEAVY MASSIVE GIANT HAMMERS!!! Beating sticks And Clubs Staffs look really cool. They kind of resemble Morgensterns or Goedendags.

The Daedric Hammer is the coolest, because it is a Bec De Corbin, a real life polearm hammer not many people know about. I think, 6th house Bell Hammer is the only 6th house themed weapon, which is a cool novelty. Orc Warhammer is one of the only two Orc weapons in the game. The Wooden Mallet is awesome too. Bloodmoon gives you a Nord leg as a weapon. Also a fun fact about hammers is that they somehow have more reach than other weapons, so you can sometimes outreach opponents.

heavy armor should be on top tier above medium armor for the simple fact it has the best enchantment capacity. which makes it far superior. also, there some amazing heavy armor like the dragon cuirass which gives 100% fire res, on a nord, with that armor alone, you are almost invunerable against elemental damage. medium does have ebony which is better, but its also far harder to aquire. wraithgaurd is also considered heavy armor. as well as the fists of randagulf that give 20 agi(left) and str(right). so that glove gives you 100 carry weight. which almost completely counters the weight you lose by equiping a full set of heavy armor.

Axes tend to be pretty heavy for the damage they do. They're also slow so it can take a while to level it up through use. But a summoned Bound Battle Axe can do 80 points of damage with a full wind up. That will one shot pretty much everything in the game. Even a Ascended Sleeper or Golden Saint will take two hits at most.

Good tier list. Alchemy deserves a B or A. The way I use alchemy is by combining it with the Sign of the Atronach, using alchemy to make Restore Magicka potions which isn't sold by most vendors. I actually think Conjuration doesn't deserve a Dagoth, once you're powerful enough you just don't need to waste the Magicka on a summon. I use the spellmaking to make them last 15-20 seconds so they aren't a crazy spellcost, and at that point it becomes only really justifiable on a powerful enemy like the Dagoths. There are also enchanted pieces like the Bone Charm that can be used in place of having Conjuration as a major/minor. You can always just train conjuration once you get good gold.

conjuration boosts your skill by 10 for the weapon you use. also you dont need to repair them and have loads of hammers in your inventory. if you dont use weapons of kagnerac the conjured versions of the weapons are really really strong all in all. the only blade you might want to add to your weapons inventory is a blade that paralizes for 10 seconds. its just so cool to not have a lot of shit in your inventory and still be badass. you can sell every item to creeper basically

@@MeepJeepLIVE I only found conjured weapons useful when I didn't want to waste the charge of enchanted weapons. But I also didn't start with Conjuration on my main character, I trained it after I had earned good weapons like the Soul Drinker, Jinksword, Ebony, Daedric, etc. Paralyze is a really good enchantment and spell too.

I love Morrowind but I hate, hate, HATE the skill progression system. First, there is the fact that only successful rolls count towards skill progression. This makes it very frustrating when trying to level a skill at very low levels. Second, there is the fact that successful rolls contribute roughly the same amount per skill. This means that weapons will inevitably outpace magical skills as you won't need to use a spell as much as you need to swing a weapon. This also means that certain skills like Speechcraft are impossible to level without training unless you're willing to invest some serious time into grinding. Finally, there is the criteria of leveling 10 skills to level up and the number of points to invest per attribute. With my battlemage character, my choice of major/minor skills resulted in me levelling up way too fast in certain attributes like Strength and Willpower while I was constantly struggling to keep up in Intelligence and Personality. In my opinion, the easiest way to manage your character's skills is to set skills you'll never use as majors/minors and then use every cheesy tactic to make tons of money so you can train up your Miscs. Thank goodness Bethesda switched to a more simple XP leveling system.
@razesmile4703 Жыл бұрын
You hit the nail on the head BUT I still love the leveling system lmao... And you're right about setting skills you'll never use as majors/minors. That's the first step to maximising leveling efficiency (getting x5 points in 3 attributes every level-up)
@davetheunshaved45528 ай бұрын
The leveling system in Morrowind is indeed tedious and confusing to a new player. I've come to enjoy it because it really gives you a lot of power over how you want to build your character if you know what you're doing. The harsh reality though is that you have to pay for training, because naturally you will never "skill up" something like conjuration by summoning a creature 10000 times or more in actual combat. The reason I forgive this is because Morrowind is very generous with money, which can't be said for Skyrim.

Real tier list: S Enchantment: Allows the use of every school of magic with regenerating mana. Also you can make machine-guns. Alchemy: game-breaking buffs. Restoration: game breaking buffs, especially powerful low duration buffs and fortify skill. Shortblade: best weapon for enchanting, has huge dps and the rapid attacks stunlock. Also jinkblade. A Destruction: solid offense and debuffs. Lots of shenanigans are possible by draining and damaging your own stats temporarily. Conjuration: bound weapons are the strongest in the game without custom enchanting, and cheap. Bound armor and summons are solid as well. Longblade: most common magic weapons in the game, and strong balanced stats. Light armor: Most efficient armor skill for weight by far. Mercantile: 10g bribe is extremely effective, and money is your lifeblood. It is possible with a few thousand g to start to buy and sell the same items repeatedly for profit. B Alteration: allows for maximum exploration and a little combat utility. You don't need a lot of it though, and enchantment can do what you need. Heavy armor: has the highest numbers, several artifacts, and is good for enchanting. Heavy tho. Blunt: good variety of properties. Sunder is amazing. Marksman: Bows are slow, but they hit hard. Fletcher add-on add magic thrown weapons and ammo. Athletics: run faster, get tired slower. C Illusion: has a variety of good effects, but 10g bribe can do a lot of it, and invisibility, chameleon, and paralyze are a little expensive. Calm is great. Mysticism: Lots of odd effects. Absorb health aoe on touch is awesome, but most effects are either bad or don't require consistency. Spear: the reach is ok, but kiting with it is not easy. Damage is meh. Almost no magic spears. Unarmored: offense is the best defense. Does start pretty weak, though. Block: helps add some defense. Not consistent, and doesn't work when casting/two-handing. Security: open locks. Some of the best loot is behind strong locks. D Axe: clunky, but makes things dead. Medium armor: light armor is stronger and weighs less. Scores fashion points, at least. Speechcraft: 10g bribe is better. Helps make taunting/intimidating less tedious though. Stealth: weak early game, but eventually makes stealing/crit-attacking easier. F Acrobatics: reduces fall damage. Just fly instead. Hand2hand: makes every fight take 4-5 times as long. Does not scale with strength. Cannot be enchanted. Armorer: just buy an extra hammer.

you know what's better than restoration? enchanted rings with restoration spells. not only do you not need to worry about failing to cast, you can spam cast them so fast, you can completely ignore anything. as a side note, you can also make an enchanted daedric tower shield with restore health, restore fatigue and drain 100 inteligence self for 1 second. that will restore you completely and if you have 110 enchantment level(100 + 10 from an enchanted piece of clothing), you get 400 casts that you can rapidfire if you want for any reason.

You definitely have an opinion sir.... You forgot that armorer essentially lets you repair extremely valuable artifacts from 0 to full durability for little to no cost.

dude put medium armor above heavy armor, even though heavy armor has some of the best artifacts like the 20 agi/str gauntlets, or the dragon cuirass for 100% fire res. or the bearclaw helm that gives 40 endurance and agility. that means, with that glove and the helm, you get 60 agi for free. since you already start with 40(30 at the bare minimum), that means you will almost never miss an attack. he also put enchantment and alchemy far too low. enchantment is the best tool in the game, for both, money making,(well soul gems are), but for simply spell casting. as they dont require anything besides enchantment level. and you can make some genuinely busted enchantments in the game. from constant health regen, to +10 enchantment(because at 110 enchant, ANY enchantment costs only 1 to cast, which means, you can get something like 400 casts of the most broken spells you can cast without even need to bother leveling that skill, nor even raise your int to get more magicka). and alchemy is like that, but even more busted. for self stat raising. you can get a massively long duration spell, just by spam making fortify int potions, drinking and making more, you could genuinely end with some hundreds of thousands of any stat for literal years. its so powerfull, the biggest issue, is you breaking your equipment after hitting anything with them, because your str is just too massive. or the game crashing because you did one press of moving foward, the you ended up at the other side of the map.
