Yes. I recorded all audio, all gameplay and edited all of this on my PS5.... I really hope you guys like it, I'm so anxious editing without my computer so let me know what you think, I really appreciate you all taking the time to watch this!

[@AsuraNull]

Was perfect, in fact compared to a video from 4 weeks ago the mic quality improved, and it seems like the video is clearer for some reason. 💜 Good job James!

[@TheBabyTort]

Illusion is very easy to use in legendary mode because you can avoid fights or make stronger enemies kill each other leaving one’s opponent you can finish off with paralyze potions if they’re still too strong alone.

[@jboogie1204]

where have u gone...

[@toytacambery9427]

To each their own, but legendary kills the immersion for me. Taking that much damage is unnecessarily overkill. Survival mode, on adept difficulty, with no more than 200 health. For me, this is a perfect feeling of being as weak as an NPC in the beginning and being able to build a powerful character by lvl 30. I just wonder how many people playing legendary are also using cheats to counteract the disadvantages in ways they don't acknowledge or even realize they are doing.

[@MatthewSmith-qd6du]

this was a great video, even considering it was a made and edited on a ps5, and the tips are really useful as well, for me as well having a follower ive found to be really helpful on legendary as there are many enemies (especilly boss level enemies) who can one hit your character and having a follower (such as lydia) who can disha nad absorb damage is really helpful when dungeon delving or out in the wilds of skyrim

[@StraightUpIrishJames]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@coralinealgae]

Nicely done. I've been playing Skyrim since it was released. That said, it's great to see videos for newer players. Would be nice to have more beginner videos.

[@kenzauter6626]

I don’t like “legendary”, but my policy has been since about 2 years into the game to level my enchanting to 100 BEFORE doing any adventuring and I have nothing but fun all the way through. It’s the key to a happy Dragonborn.

[@FrostyMirror854]

I’m gunna give that a try for my next coming play through. Thanks, any tips for speedy enchant leveling

Hey james, i know your probably not going to see this, or ever check this video again, but i really miss the streams, i dont know why, i havent really gotten the time, but you helped me get through some sad times, so boring times, and just straight up are a funny guy who makes funny content. I hope ill find you livestreaming here soon 😁

[@adamshenk9970]

I am level 25 on legendary - I use the transmute spell from the forsworn camp north of whiterun to mine iron, change to gold, make jewelry, enchant jewelry, and sell. Money, speech, enchanting, smithing and alteration increase. I avoided skill books early so that my combat levels quickest. The solitude guard arrow farming trick is key. I got mjoll the lioness as unkillable follower and also use flame atronarch. Paralyze spell will be key.

[@cokovin8663]

For me, whatever your built, only add health everytime you level up. Stamina and magicka can be added by enchanting.

[@Lollaksyotuube]

So can health.

[@cokovin8663]

@@Lollaksyotuube true, after I enchant stamina and magicka enough (~300-400 to cast master spell), I add more health by enchanting. Never get enough of health. Adding all to health is for progressing the game smoothly so im not dead with one random hit

[@Lollaksyotuube]

@@cokovin8663 Yeah, I get it :)

[@zopheir5019]

When should I start investing perks into the crafting skills? Should I power-level them in the beginning? or gradually invest levels into them as I progress through the game?

[@Frittin762]

Hope everything is okay Irish ❤️

oh, James, next month, Nov. 11th, a mod is released for pc and console. It's called 'Saints and Seducers Extended Cut'. It takes place in the Shivering Isles. They have a trailer on KZbin.

I'm glad someone agrees with me on the tomatos and not being able to grow them. I get outside not being able to grow them but with the introduction of hearthfire we can build a green house. A building used mainly to grow stuff not native to the region in real life, what does it even do in the game besides add more grow plots and respawning butterfly's.

Props to you for making this video without a PC! Personally for food i just eat salmon steaks lol i don't see a reason to make anything else you can literally dive in a river, collect 10-20 salmon at a time, mass cook it and you're good to go for an in game month and they're super light compared to soup.

[@AsuraNull]

Everything okay James? It's been awhile 💜

[@vizhardus4978]

Vegetable soup always feel so cheesy to me, you can chain stagger most ennemies making everything so much easier.

[@SeanNH94]

I'm liking this purely for the effort of making this video sans PC; I know it can be tricky AF! :3

[@StoteFarus]

I mean, Legendary is not that hard for me (im playing stealth archer - my very first time playing Skyrim btw), but literally any dragon that fire breaths me instakill me. lol

[@FishnWithWilly]

Why would you chose legendary for your first play through?

[@OnlineHipHopTV]

You need enchanting and alchemy. So you can craft craft insane gear and weapons.

[@patrickwild5339]

Respect for grinding thru the tech limitations. I'm PC master race, expecting me to make even a semi pro video on the PlayStation platform would be nuts. Props to you for fighting through uncertainty and learning new things

[@Leto85]

Crab Stew and Venison Stew are also very good.

[@KristapsK1]

i would like to know what a tip for a stealth archer would be, instead of making vegetable soup, because the health regen on the soup is very low, and you really don't need the stamina regen when you're trying to kill everyone before they and their mothers find out

[@ClintonsWarpedProductions]

great tips James. You forgot the soul trap Nazzem and turn into boots my friend.

[@christianbaker3564]

Only read skill books at higher levels! Learned that the hard way

[@sophiemendez5567]

I get a follower to pick them all up. Also, do certain quest early if you don't want to legendary status your perk tree. For example, you could be sneak 100, but return Noster's helmet and he can't reward you because your level is complete.

[@dannyh5731]

How high of a level?

@@sophiemendez5567 The follower thing is genius!

[@christianbaker3564]

@Danny H I belive its much harder to level after 50 of any of the skills so it's up to you. For me, my character needs 80 smithijg so I'm gonna wait to read any until in in the high 70s

[@sophiemendez5567]

@@christianbaker3564 it's easy if you level up what you don't use as well, just put the perks in other trees. Also after lv 50 you should be swimming in gems. Just make smithing legendary like 6 times.

Use trainer followers like faendal they will happily give you the gold back when trading items lol

[@darkzircon8165]

Usually works if they have less than 1000 gold, if it's more than that amount I think it becomes very difficult to steal

@@metasamsara lol he's scamming himself

[@someonesilence3731]

Use the paralyse spell on them, you always succeed in pickpocketing if the target is paralyzed, even you though it may still say 0%. Also works with a scroll, not sure if it works with the poison but it probably does.

[@itzbizarre5677]

@@someonesilence3731 I’m new to vampires so what would you say is better dark elf for fire resistance or Breton for magic resistance? Or high elf for magic in general

[@someonesilence3731]

@@itzbizarre5677 If you go vampire, you will have a 25% bonus to sneak and illusion magic. Chosing a Dark elf would probably be the best choice, because they start with the highest sneak of those three and have fire resistance to offset the weakness to fire from being a vampire. High elves start with higher illusion but otherwise don't have any benefits for the illusion-assasin vampire playstyle. The magic resistance from Bretons is really nice but they also do not have any beneficial starting levels for this playstyle. Ultimately race matters little, as all effects can be achieved by leveling and enchantments anyway.

[@Antilluminati]

On legendary, melee is a disaster. I literally put all my levelups in health and at level 25 you still receive hige damage while wearing epic heavy armor and barely do damage with over 65 one handed. Your companions are legendary though.. as are summons. So basically a companion, one who has a summon or raise dead preferably.. and you can do it. Otherwise prepare to level with trainers if you want to do physical damage, while doing alchemy or something to get money. It's pathetic tbh

[@danielcowan4901]

The snow trolls suck. So much. Well, on legendary, all trolls do, i suppose.

Did you really say that the early stages of the game is the toughest on Legendary?? And leveling pickpocket will help you with this? Jeez man, have you even played on Legendary? The higher level you get, the harder it will be until you hit the breaking point where you have strong armor resistance and magic resistance. Pickpocketing to gain levels does NOTHING to combat the fact it gets harder as the levels comes, but just the opposite as it has no help whatsoever in combat!
