SKYRIM IS A PERFECTLY BALANCED GAME WITH NO EXPLOITS - Can You Beat Skyrim With Only A Bow Challenge

Skyrim is a fantastically balanced game in the great elder scrolls series of RPGs. Anyway today we are discovering that skyrim is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits well excluding the Skyrim Bow Challenge. So today I chose to revisit the game and ask the question. What if they just used a flaming Knife to defeat a fire dragon. and Can you beat skyrim with only a Bow? These are the important questions which have gone unanswered for too long! So yes today we are going to break the game with the power of Enchanted Bows!!! Reanu keeves adventures is set to continue and take new exciting turns as the Spiffing Brit also takes the alchemy of skyrim to the next level of video game exploits on his quest for the Most Overpowered Bow. Honestly all of this is one big experiment gone wrong :D
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.
So sit back relax and enjoy this Skyrim Bow only challenge! How on earth can one english bugger beat skyrim with only a bow!!

One of the most broken things in Skyrim is the unique ingredient Astrid gives you to poison the Emperor. The damage values of ingredients in Skyrim vary from 1 to 5, and increase exponentially. The root you're given has that value set at over 300, meaning any poison you make with the ingredient can instantly kill even the tankiest enemy in the game, that being Kaarstag on Legendary difficulty.

[@bezerkoid]

Is there a way to get more root?

An even better way to get infinite arrows is from Niruin in the thieves guild cistern.

Better way to get high damage: Enchant armor to fortify weapon types, this means you don’t have to ever refill soul gems. For some reason it works that way. Skyrim just works.

[@heftyjo2893]

The per charge cost to use an enchanted weapon is tied to your destruction skill. So, you want to enchant your gear with fortify destruction till your mana cost to cast destruction spells hits zero. Then, you can use weapons with damage enchantments for zero soul stone cost.
