About Polymorph Skeever, there's some remnants of where it was supposed to be used in Riften. The prison even still has an interactable skeever-sized grate you can open, next to the Prisoner Belongings Chest, that happens to lead to an alternate way out of the prison. There are similar grates in various other places in a few cities, but I only know of the one in the prison actually being useable.

It would have been such a cool mission. Just for the new feature... Think of the mods. Entire mazes and boss fights. Skeever vs giant mudcrab or skeever vs sickly wolf. Maybe even a mudcrab mod. You go around picking moss off rocks and harrasing literally anything that moves that doesn't have claws. Eating random coins and junk occasionally. You get to pinch things. And- You get to use a new shout- so, yes. You can be a Dohvacrab. But, it's just you making slightly louder crab noises at things. Before yet more pinching.

[@daeganhamilton1138]

5:50 When the argonian approaches you on the docks she is distraught by the memories of the Dwemer that the lexicon gives her. We can infer from her dialogue and the content of the quest that the lexicon was used to store the very memories and experiences of the Dwemer as both a tool to share knowledge with each other and perhaps for safekeeping. The way this works isn't fully explained, but it seems like whoever is holding on to the lexicon is actively interacting with it, both adding their own memories to it and receiving memories from it. In the ruin we are seeing the argonian's memories thanks to the cube, which stored her memories after she had escaped with it.

[@davidabdollahi7906]

You are right! I was frustrated to hear him say they're "ghosts!" cuz ghosts are blue and memory projections are orange

[@babygurleatsshickennuggits4201]

@David Abdollahi I really dislike that quest. I find it so annoying to do, but to be fair, I find all dwarven ruins irritating. But this one makes it super hard for me to just sneak fast enemies since the npcs automatically detect you. Or if they don't their dialog might not even activate and you can't go anywhere else unless they finish whining.

[@kongk5772]

He also didn’t mention that the effect the lexicon gives you is glitched so it boosts smithing by 25% to everything you can craft not just dwarven

[@jtenorj]

@@kongk5772 Originally, it buffed all armors(heavy and light) by 25% and improved your tempering by 15%(not the rate at which you level up Smithing). Bethesda attempted to patch the effect so it does what it says it does, but only managed to make it so that dwarven armor was no longer affected(so now all armors get a 25% boost EXCEPT dwarven). Good one, Bethesda. If you have the Unofficial Patch installed, then Ancient Knowledge does what it says. I play on PC ,but I don't use mods. Despite the fact the Unofficial Patch fixes many bugs Bethesda never got around to fixing, I don't play with that either. I know how to either avoid a lot of bugs, or ways to fix them(either using available game mechanics like reloading a save, or by using the developer's console). Since the original effects of the quest reward are actually better than what it says it does, I prefer it to any changes.

[@mikesilent3049]

thats pretty much what i figured but you had alot more info that made it make more sense. ik eso often does this to give a narrative to some dungeons

[@kazzie3090]

It honestly wouldn't surprise me if the Polymorph Skeever spell was a spell that you would have eventually been able to acquire from Brelyna Maryon from the college. Only reason I say that is because in the quest to raise her disposition she ends up polymorphing you into tons of different creatures in hopes of perfecting _some_ kind of spell.

[@DeisFortuna]

If they *had* gotten Polymorph: Skeever to work properly, then even if the polymorph effect wasn't like, a whole category of spells, and just a reward for helping her with her research, I'm pretty sure the Skeever spell would have opened up the potential for modders to add in cool new forms!

[@Miss_Camel]

I was a cute cow, tho.

[@deathnotevictem]

The skeever spell might have been connected to that guy obsessed with the rats during the thieves guild. He would have that level of knowledge on skeevers.

I believe one of the dev's that continued on to skyrim together/ beyond skyrim projects actually comments on how it was supposed to be a way of bypassing the lunatic in the meadery, but, failing to explain where he goes after the quest is completed, I believe the idea was abandoned.

[@corvus1253]

@@isthisoneunavailable Yes. Why?

[@monkaeyes3417]

isthisoneunavailable 4 months late on this but it’s probably because it functions the same way as a destruction spell. The identity of conjuration magic is to deal INDIRECT damage. So you summon a sword and then you swing it, or you summon an fire lady to attack your foes. The spectral arrow deals DIRECT damage, this is the same as all destruction spells. Basically, it doesn’t fit the consistency of the game as a whole Edit: who knows though, maybe in tes6 they will make things that take from multiple skill trees. Maybe you need conjuration and destruction to cast it, then archery to grant attack bonuses to it, then sneak to make it silent cast and deal extra damage to unaware enemies.

[@Vercalos]

For what it's worth, I think those "ghosts" aren't ghosts but rather echoes of what happened, notice how they're orange and every spirit in the game is blue? I'm guessing they might even be from the Lexicon itself. Also the Thief stone doesn't have a power, it's an XP boost to stealth skills, like lockpicking. The Tower stone is the one with the power that lets you open locks.

And seeing as how you don't understand how Skyrim works, you get XP towards a skill, like giving a book to the Orc smith in Markarth who gives you XP in Smithing. The quest he mentions in the video literally gives you XP in a way via "Ancient Knowledge". I quote: "Knowledge gained from the Lexicon gives you a 25% bonus when wearing Dwarven Armor and Blacksmithing increases 15% faster." It can also increase your heavy armor on completion, albeit rarely. I think it's dependent on your HA level at the end.

The Aetherium Crown + The Ritual Stone is especially powerful since when you revive the dead with it, after their timer of being resurrected runs out, they don't turn into dust like normal resurrection spells.

[@lordtalosgaming1448]

The ancient knowledge is bugged multiple different ways depending on which version of Skyrim you're running. The smithing skill learning doesn't speed up by 15%. Instead you get a permanent +15 to you smithing skill, which persists even after you hit 100, meaning you can have 115 skill level in smithing. In versions below 1.9.26.0.8, the 25% armor bonus is applied to all armor. In versions over and including 1.9.26.0.8, the 25% armor bonus is applied to all armor EXCEPT Dwarven armor, because genius Bethesda devs, used poor logic whle trying to "fix" the bug.

[@jtenorj]

@@lordtalosgaming1448 This is a bug I like. Don't really care about Dwarven armor(very heavy, fairly low base armor rating) but love the boost to all other armors and the boost to tempering. It doesn't actually raise your skill by 15 points(if it did, you would see 115 skill when sitting at a workbench or grinding wheel after having maxed out the skill). It does in fact improve the bonuses to armor rating and weapon damage added via tempering by 15%(so 1.15x the combo of skill, perks, Fortify Smithing potions and enchantments, as well as the Seeker of Might effect available in black book Sallow Regent). And any version of the Unofficial Patch(Legendary Edition, Special Edition, probably an Anniversary Edition too, idk) wrecks this otherwise really great quest reward and turns it into something that's only really beneficial early on in a player's run through the game.

I've thought about the Ancient Knowledge thing for a long time, and the only conclusion I was able to come to was that it gave the dragonborn knowledge of tonal smithing. Armor just doesn't become more effetive because of knowlege, but forging does. The dragonborn must have been gifted with the smithing knowledge of whole generations of dwemer, and thus became the first tonal smith in millenia. The armor doesn't just have better stats, it is better.

The ancient knowledge is bugged. It gives that bonus to every armor EXCEPT drawven armor.

[@aboredguywithaninternetcon4663]

Yes, because there is no armor named drawven armor

[@shirel.a8421]

And if it was just limited to dwemer armor, it would be obsolete because you can get a armor rating of 180 with stoneflesh and the mage armor 3/3 perk. 200 if you use ironflesh with the same perk

[@Caddynars]

It’s hit or miss. It supposed to proc with Dwarven armor, but sometimes it just fails to. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch foxes this.

[@ghostblade8453]

I found this out by accident and it isnt really hidden per say but i still think its cool. If you have completed the alteration story line from the college of winterhold youll get the Dragon skin (maybe dragon hide i cant remember) spell. This spell when cast reduces all physical damage by 80% which i think is prettt nice. But when you pair this spell with the Lord standing stone it becomes amazing. The lord standing stone gives you a constant effect of reducing all physical and magical damage by 20%. Which means when paired with the Dragon Hide spell makes you 100% immune to all physical damage for 45 seconds i believe. I tested this out a lot and it was really fun to walk in to a bandit camp or gaint camp and just stand while they try to kill with swords and bows with is literally impossible with these two off

[@billyguttierrez7858]

During the from deepest depths quest, it isn't ghosts you are seeing in the dwemer ruin, it is the memory the lexicon is "imprinting" on you while in the ruin. It's similar to the last quest of the mages guild, where you see the magical energy/memory of Savos and the others. It's not the ghosts that you see exactly, it's the memory of the souls passing through the area as the dragonborn goes though them.

[@jtenorj]

@@ATOMIC_V_8 Bethesda tried to "fix" it in basically the final 1.9 patch of the original game, but only succeeded in making Dwarven Armor no longer get the 25% buff everything else gets. Also, by default, it doesn't increase you Smithing XP gain by 15%. Instead, it buffs tempering of armor and weapons by 15% which does help you level up the skill faster but not by 15%. Any Unofficial Patch(Legendary Edition version, Special Edition version, maybe even an Anniversary Edition version, idk) will make Ancient Knowledge do what it says in the description instead which kinda sucks. What was once permanently useful becomes something only really useful early on in a player's run through the game.

I'd never considered using the Crown with ability Stones. I always just put the Lover Stone on it, cuz I like being OP. Turns out the Crown is even more OP than I thought.

[@JargonMadjin]

The crown is pretty OP yeah, me and some others were talking about it in the comments of the previous video, I mentioned that I usually use it to get the Lord Stone and Atronach Stone at the same time which gives you a massive defense boost. Someone replied stating that if you combined those two stones with some alteration perks and Miraaks set then you'd be completely immune to magic and dragon breaths, I also followed this up by mentioning that the orc's day power added onto all that would turn your character into a tank since you'd also increase your physical defense thanks to the Lord Stone and orc day power all the while dealing double damage because of the orc's day power

My personal favorite secret magical effect: early comment in a Nate's video.

[@FMHikari]

Hey, Nate! I figured out an extra "secret" bit. Aetherium was "harmonically unstable", yes? That means it's vulnerable to sound and vibration. It's also what caused the earthquake in "Lost to the Ages"... And during the final fight against Mercer. If you look up above Eyes of the Falmer statue during the quest, the entire CEILING is lined with Aetherium ore, meaning it was what caused the collapse and flood after Mercer creates a blast. Considering he uses Invisibility, his plan was likely to disorient the Nightingale trio and make a run for it, but his luck ran out and he ended up trapped with us instead. Once he's dead and we get a hold of the key, OUR luck returns and we're aided by lady luck herself(through the key) in our escape.

[@Acerthorn]

Hey Nate, here's a hidden spell effect you can use: Flame-Cloak dual casting! It turns out that the flame cloak spell is subject to quite a few buffs that, when combined, make enemies literally just drop dead without you having to do anything! Yeah, you literally don't even have to attack enemies! There are quite a few buffs that you need to combine to get maximum results, so it would be tedious to list them all here. Fortunately, I have a video on my own channel that explains them all. I discuss the overpoweredness of flame cloak at 8:08 of this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hajQioKVeqasp5Y

Good morning, Nate! We had a little Skyrim prob yesterday: ruined the disc, which had 8 1/2 months of play and I was almost at level 55. Had to get a new copy and start over. BUT: I followed the Imperial in Helgen Keep, and after exiting near the river, I crossed over, picked up the flawless emerald you mentioned in the deer skeleton (GREAT tip!), and then ran into a character named Frightened Woman. Dressed in rags, and saying she had been kidnapped by bandits and taken to Mistveil Keep, but then escaped. She wanted someone to kill the bandits. Which I did. I had never heard of this woman, and I realized I have never heard you address Random Encounters thoroughly. Perhaps this could be Ten Random...or Twenty or whatever. I would love to see this!
