This is a much better option than Shadowmere as long as the quest hasn't been completed, thanks for pointing this out! Hatefiend on our discord pointed out that Er-Teeus is the easiest NPC to push into a corner of rocks to farm using this location. Thanks!

This isn't the best idea if your game is unstable. Every time you hit them, you get an unreported assault crime which, although never reported, can crash the game if you get too many. To fix this, hit a guard, pay 40 gold for that assault, and the entire unreported list is cleared.

Update: I've been trying to find a way to improve the light armor/heavy armor/block method, and it appears that the Bruma barracks in the castle have 10+ guards at night that will deal significantly faster hits than the rats do. The only downside is they are more likely to stagger you and paralyze you, but overall this new method seems to be better if you pay close attention to your hotkeyed healing potions. So you just punch a guard, farm until all armor is broken while blocking, yield and pay the gold fine, then repair outside the castle and head back in to fight again. Update 2: Forgot to add this until now, but Hatefiend on our discord discovered that if you have a shield and weapon drawn but do not block with them, you'll still get the light/heavy armor exp every hit depending on the type of shield, and the shield will never take damage, so you won't have to repair ever. You don't even need to be wearing any other armor. The only downside to this is that you can't get block exp at the same time like with the gauntlet method in the video, so this new strat is mainly useful if you don't need block exp.

[@Thedotjohn999]

I have found a fast light and heavy armor training I went with a shield for whicherver type and a sword to have the shield out and it just levels fast. The shield does not degrade unless you block allowing for infinite training so long as you can heal. Update sheathing your weapon will prevent disarm and still let tge shield act as the armor class leveling of chioce.

[@Lex_Araden]

I will try investigating this in few days, but if the destruction and conjuration spells counting as an assault is an issue, it should be possible to make an alternative spell that is set to self. I am most likely wrong because I over looked something, but I will report back over the weekend if I come up with a spell that can be cast infinite. Edit: by that I mean the "spell school" is on self, obviously it still needs a touch component for fast casting.

[@PRCLive]

@@Lex_Araden Regardless of spell school, as long as one effect that triggers the assault is in the spell, it still angers NPCs. A simple way to confirm this is by reversing the spell effect order so that the fortify magicka is first, and makes the spell a restoration spell. Having turn undead or damage fatigue on self still angers NPCs.

[@Lex_Araden]

@@PRCLive That was not what I meant. What I was talking about was making the destruction or conjuration spell target self rather than touch and having another effect to add the touch effects. I will need to check this tomorrow, but I think it is possible to have 3 or 4 effects and still have it infinite cast, I will be starting my testing of that tomorrow. For example: Fire Damage x pt self Heal x pt self Light 3 pts on touch Fortify Magic 21 pts for 2 secs self It is likely that I am overestimating the effect of Fortify Magic or missing some other detail on it, but I will look into it tomorrow and report back.

[@Lex_Araden]

@@PRCLive So it turns out that if you have an agro causing effect, even if that effect is on self, it will still cause agro. I will continue to experiment, but my original idea was a dead end.

Honestly this is one of the best, most all inclusive guides on youtube, especially on gaming KZbin. It is repetitive but I believe, as you intended, it makes it a more useful guide; as anybody can bookmark it and come back to it whenever they need for whatever specific skill they want to grind.

I'm just glad someone is still making videos for Oblivion. I played Morrowind in '04 and got super into it. When Oblivion came out, I thought they dumbed it down. When Skyrim came out the Attribute system was gone; so very dumbed down. Going back to play Morrowind again, I realize how poorly it aged. Morrowind has it's Alchemy exploit and is a game that steers the player to use enchanted items. Skyrim has it's Alchemy/Enchant exploit and steers the player to be a Archer. Oblivion has it's dupe glitch but it's harder to build superman. Thanks for making these videos, I think I'll subscribe.

[@cheezeit8911]

Great video. Informative without filler. Another method to farming acrobatics is using a basket. Place it in the corner of a room, jump on top of it and slowly move to the edge away from the corner. You'll very slightly sink when you reach the edge. If done right, when the jump button is pressed you'll lose stamina but won't actually move. The jump button can be spammed as fast as possible to gain xp with pretty much a 0 frame delay.

Thanks for the vid. I was trying to get light/heavy armor and block done but couldn't think of a place to do it at. If you have the dlc houses you can use "The Wizard's Tower" to make spells, "Dunbarrow Cove" to do security (once the place is up graded you will find a chest that you can spam lock picks on), and "Deepscorn Hollow" for almost anything that you need someone who will not die or attack you (once you get it, buy the cattle pen. There will now be a sleeping prisoner who won't die, unless you use an enchanted item. I was able to get all weapon skills, spells that need a target, and sneak done on this guy).

[@bwestacado9643]

Trust me on this, go to the house in Skingrad with the Everscamp Staff. Don't talk to the homeowner, instead put it on the highest difficulty and trigger the 4 scamps. After you kill them, they respawn and there is always 4 of them. Avoid damaging the homeowner, don't talk to her and don't steal anything, so no bounty is set against you. Free leveling.

[@evancoffland19]

Once you get 100 in alchemy, make a Chamaeleon potion (The ones I make are 36% for two minutes). Then dupe glitch them to about 700 potions. Go to Miscarcand (or anywhere with dread zombies) and then turn the difficulty slider high enough so that the dread zombie’s regeneration out paces your damage. Drink enough potions to turn 100% invisible with Chamaeleon affect. Whale on dread zombie. You can train any kind of attack skill. If you train on a dread zombie in the second room of Miscarcand, just make sure you periodically revisit the first room every now and then, or the room will reset and the metal gate will trap you forever...........🙃

If you play the game on a 4:3 resolution, the pop-up menu in which you have to confirm the transaction will show up overlapping your menu. That way you don't have to move the cursor as long as you're selling of which you have only one or two.

There's also the fact that you can grind Sneak by simply running into the wall right where the stool is in the imperial prison cell you start the game in right before Valen Dreth begins to taunt you.

[@Borna688]

By far one of the best guides I've seen for Oblivion in many years of playing. This is one of the oldest tricks in the book with sneak leveling: The sneak leveling can also be done on the tutorial mission (while escaping the prison) while exploring through the cave tunnels. The first time you enter a cave... (after the guards and the emperor decide not to take you with them through the door, and you are forced to enter the cave through the hole in the wall) HOW TO DO IT: There is a fixed scenario after a minute or so of the first cave running where three rats are being chased by a zombie. You want to kill the zombie and the one rat that should attack you (wait for the rat to attack you so that you accidentaly don't kill the one of two passive rats). Turn around and go back (chase the two scenario rats) to the cave level where the two scenario rats start running about (the mentioned cave level should be right behind you). They tend to run in circles and are programmed to be passive (they will not attack you). Just go in to the corner next to the rats while in sneak stance and keep moving forward until your sneak is at max (this does take some time, but I think it should be faster than the mentioned method?) Has anyone got any info if this is faster?

[@PRCLive]

I have an exact answer to this using timing data from our 100% run. Sneaking undetected regardless of number of enemies you are sneaking near requires a total of 3.78 hours to max it out according to UESP (link below), and doing the pickpocket method described in this video took roughly an 1.2 hours to do it the required 5,103 pickpockets, making it significantly faster, albeit more tedious. If you just want the most passive setup that requires not having to actively play, the rats are a good setup if you haven't already completed the tutorial though. Here is the UESP article about skill increases: en.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Increasing_Skills

Armorer is the first skill I master in every single playthrough of Oblivion. It's the easiest skill to master. I don't understand how anyone completes all the quests without maxing out Armorer since you need to repair your weapons and armor constantly to keep them at full strength. The hardest skills to max out without skill books and training sessions are Mercantile and Athletics. I've never even come close to mastering these without training and books, and I spend the first 15-20 levels just raiding Marauder and Bandit dungeons and selling off everything to get money for training and houses. Also, you should spam Blade, Blunt, H2H, and Destruction on the frozen NPC followers at the Peryite Shrine. There are 5 of them, and they can each take a ton of damage before falling down, where they will get back up and start recharging health as you switch your attack to the next NPC. Or you can use a convalescence spell and just keep hitting the same one. And that way you won't have to complete the entire Dark Brotherhood quest to get Shadowmere.

[@cosmo9925]

There’s a much less tedious strat for armorer if you have the shivering isles DLC. First you need to talk to the Khajiit lady in crucible who runs the general store. You’ll know you’re talking to the right one when she’s telling you that the world is going to end. Accept her quest to retrieve 3 items for her, don’t bother with the other two and don’t finish the quest, just get the item located in a dungeon called the amulet of disintegration, then craft a spell that fortifies your armorer skill by 100 for one second, hot key a single repair hammer (it won’t break as long as you use it while your armorer skill is at 100 so you don’t have to dupe it). Then collect a full set of the highest health armor you can get at your level. Once all that is in place, put on the amulet and it will completely break one random piece of armor or shield as well as the weapon you have equipped. Make sure your equipped armor or weapon is not enchanted unless you have the journeyman perk that allows you to repair enchanted items. Keep equiping and unequiping the amulet since it’ll only break one armor piece and one weapon at a time. Be sure to periodically unequip broken armor or weapons so that the amulet actually destroys the healthy gear instead of applying disintegrate to an already broken piece of gear, once all your gear is broken, cast the fortify armorer spell on yourself and press the hot key you assigned the repair hammer to. As long as you have your armorer at 100, the hammer won’t break, so just spam repair and fix all of it up. Once that’s done, repeat the process with the amulet to break all your armor and then cast the spell and repair it all again. It’s easily the fastest and most convenient way to do it. No dupes and no waiting for your Magica to regenerate. Plus that 100 armorer spell is great if you just want to rush to the journeyman perk at 50 to repair enchanted stuff instead of 100 to make hammers unbreakable.

[@facemelt2753]

Having a torch equipped while magic farming allows for the same cast time and better movement than blocking with a dagger

[@g4md0r32]

This video is literally a treasure. Good work dude.

[@Tc4ify]

For leveling up block and both armor skills, I've found that the fastest way is actually in the tutorial dungeon. You can round up to 11-12 rats at the same time and if you lower the difficulty all the way down, you don't even need any potions (Heal minor wounds spell will suffice every 5-10 seconds or so). In my last playthrough I managed to get both armor skills to 100 ridiculously quickly and Block to 75 (it's much slower and therefore I got bored at that point) which is quite hilarious considering you haven't even finished your character build by that point in the game. There is also an additional (small) perk to doing it there as those rats don't carry any diseases (for those wanting to keep the diseases contracted stat line at 0). The obvious downside is screwing your leveling progression, so this is best applied if you're doing an under leveling run (which is exactly what I did).

[@PRCLive]

This is a great idea as long as you can repair your armor. I know there is a repair hammer in the chest by the goblin shaman, but you'd have to be able to dupe the repair hammer to fix your armor, which requires either being on version 1.0 of the game and using the arrow duping method, or somehow finding two copies of the same scroll to dupe in the 1.2 version of the game, which I'm not sure exist in the tutorial. What method are you using to get more repair hammers?

[@PRCLive]

Wait I just remembered a piece of tech that circumvents this. If you are wearing a shield and you don't have the shield out, you can still gain exp for the light/heavy armor skill even if all your other armor breaks, since you are still wearing a valid piece of unbroken armor, and the rats can't hit it if you don't have it pulled out to block with. That way you never have to actually repair anything.

[@Tc4ify]

@@PRCLive This playthrough was almost 5 years ago, so I don't remember all the details, but I definitely used both shields and I think I repaired a couple pieces of equipment a couple times by saving before using the hammer, getting in a couple successful strikes (or reloading in the case of a failure) then saving again and rinse and repeat. But it mustn't have been that bad or I would probably still remember. I think I first mostly used barehanded blocking and after that skill was at 50, the issue of repairing equipment was solved due to the "unbreakable" shields.

[@urbanvampyre2706]

My personal fav way of farming any low level weapon skill is to mount a horse while hidden, travel to the other side of the map out in the wilderness, dismount and start attacking the thing. They have a fair bit of health to withstand low level attacks for a while and they never agro, just slowly walk back to where you took them from.

[@danguillou713]

If you don't need to raise mercantile and speechcraft for your levelling, there isn't any advantages to maxing them out. Once you can make your own spells, you can make a charm100 spell or a reinforce mercantile100 with short duration and use that instead. One of the first quests in the mages guild questline teaches you that you don't need to be pretty or talk good, you can just charm people with magic. So that's what I do.

I also reccommend using a macro to do this while having nothing but the scrolls in your inventory so you can safely afk without the risk of selling something actually valuable.

I think that if you're gonna use exploits and glitches you might as well just use console commands and save time and effort, on pc ofc

[@HomerS95]

Fully agree. Why would anyone grind a skill with items they duplicated. Can't wrap my head around that logic at all.

[@tankervendetta2848]

This info is great. If you want to grind light/heavy armor without repairing just use a shield without blocking

[@PhiraFae]

Unfortunately, you can't just hold the button down. You have to continuously hit it to cast a spell.

[@Bepis13]

Also, there is a great master level lock with 3 walls around you next to the prison. It is immediately to the right as soon as you go to the prison. You open a gate and can sneak up to the door with little to no chance of being caught.

I farmed all my magic schools to 100 before leaving the sewers restoration was the worst.

[@wranglerman270]

With the leveling system, farming that much that soon means that you can’t increase intelligence or willpower attributes past the first level up

[@tristynclattenburg3095]

@@wranglerman270 no it carrys over so i would get +5 to will or int one level then so on till max level only being able to make will and int.

You have any good tips on how to level destruction fast without getting the arcane university?

[@tristynclattenburg3095]

@@fabiangarcia1790 no I just conjured a skeleton and shot fire balls on max difficulty while walking backwards

[@tristynclattenburg3095]

@@fabiangarcia1790 maybe the arena on the opponents side you can jump to a unreachable spot and tire the difficulty to max and fire away

[@harimik2124]

Jumping into the punching bag the yellow champion is training on in the arena till you start slow falling does the same thing, I am so proud of myself for finding this on my own. Might work even better than the basket method although you will fall off the bag and have to do a regular jump every once in a while. Every input counts doing this method.

[@emilypumpkinseller]

the spell section was so helpful THANK YOU!!

[@nobodyimportant4778]

Don't forget you don't get acro experience if you aren't trying to move. So you have to turn on auto walk while you farm

[@Illogical.]

I have considered making a Lego mechanism, that just turns the turning motion of a leogo motor or a slowly falling object into clicks. It should be very easy, but I haven't found any very good use for it yet.

[@daskampffredchen]

The two skilles I cared most about and the idea was just "They are horrible to pick. Just train them" :)

[@dapondboi]

14:02 an alternative to this is the followers of peryite at their shrine before you've finished that quest

[@kerthangallagher]

I found a good way for Marksman skill. If you cast a summon skeleton spell and then hit on skeleton by the arrow, then you can actually pick these up so you won’t have to waste on arrows afterwards for training. Keep in mind that it doesn’t matter which bow and arrows you’re using on when doing marksman training.

[@kerthangallagher]

This method of Marksman training will also help raise a conjuration skill at the same time by little bit. You can actually cast any type of skeleton spell that you’ll like to cast on. This applies the same as any type of ghosts that you’ll like to cast on when doing Marksman Training. Hope this helps! 😊

[@NoahMatta-ie4hd]

I feel like speechcraft is the one we all need, especially when your just playing the game for the story or the additional quests

[@tonyhawksunderground2]

If you open up the debug view for skills, you'll see that you don't actually train acrobatics as fast as you can jump in most cases. I've found the best place to actually level for each key press is on a sloped surface - there's a good barrel in the Bravil mages guild. Also, you don't need to be underwater to get the faster athletics training, so you don't need water breathing.

[@bwestacado9643]

For block and both armors, just visit the house in Skingrad with the Everscamp Staff. Don't talk to her and accept the quest, just set the difficulty to max, attack all 4 scamps and back yourself into a corner with your shield raised. Easier and you can control your leveling this way. That house acted as my xp growth hub 😂

[@adamhamilton6696]

In the thieves den add on there's a chest that can not be opened by using the dup glitch on lockpicks you can grind out the security skill on that

[@ricehatmat]

I'm glad you included a clip from the stream with my name 'NukaKappa' in the chat. Seriously though this video is super well put together and flows great, also 14cps is insane

[@BobTheBuilder294]

How to grind restoration: Go to the temple in Choral (not Weyon priory), buy minor respite which restores stamina, jam a plastic fork or something into the keyboard so it casts infinitly by itself. Minor respite is like 5 mana or something i cant remember. You can cast it with full stamina and it will still give you xp. Restoration is the slowest and most tedious magic to grind.

[@aquaecoloratum]

This is the most helpful video on Oblivion on KZbin 🙂

[@pyromaniac0968]

This was made 3 years ago but ima put this here anyway incase someone new plays it. When duping if the stack is too big it will crash your game. The best thing to do is to have different scrolls at different stacks that way when you drop the item it only drops one as a full stack of said item. Like if you wanted 50 of said item and you have 25 it will dupe and only drop one extra scroll that has 25 in it. So it will only drop two visible scrolls while they both actually have 25 in them. With this method you can dupe 500+ of an item if they drop in a small stack.

[@brycesmith5117]

Destruction works but does not cast infinitely gotta keep pressing the button

[@Camaroni1000]

Wow I didn’t realize this game was still this popular! I just assumed this video was from a decade ago not just a year ago!

[@theodentherenewed4785]

It's very useful. You even sound a bit like you did a lot of skill farming with the downward voice modulation.

Shadowmere is a female horse. Other than that miniscule nitpick this a great video! Nice work.
