Stat Boost
Added on
2006-10-27 at 09:58:56
Successfully complete all fifteen of the Daedric quests to get a large stat boost. You can choose any of the three major skill sets; Combat, Guile, or Magic. Each gives you a ten point permanent boost to the related stats and some of the related skills. It is extremely worth it to do the Daedric quests considering all the other good items you will get while doing the quests. You can activate up to fourteen at once if you are at a high enough level. The final quest requires level 21+, and you must have completed all of the other Daedric quests.
Take any desired Sigil Stone and either an already enchanted item or regular item and enchant the item with a Sigil Stone. Then, use the "Duplicate items" trick on it to get a permanent stat boost for whatever the item was meant to increase. Repeat this with the same or different enchantment to continuously get stat boosts in that category. You can then sell the extra copies for extra gold.

Easy Lockpicking

When picking a lock, do the very first spring manually. Once it is in place, as you press the Analog-stick to go to the next spring, press X a split second afterwards. The arrow should be in between the first and second springs as you press X. If done correctly, the lock should open on the very first try.

Horse Shop Gold (Only Works in Prepatch)
Added on
2006-10-26 at 19:00:14
To do this you need a horse and the more expensive the weapon you wield the better.
So get your most expensive weapon and wield it. Get on your horse and fast travel to either Kvatch to speak to the orc merchant, or to Silver Road in Cyrodill and speak to a merchant in green clothing.
Once you enter the barter screen, sell your equipped weapon. It will not vanish, allowing it to be sold over and over again for gold.
This no longer works after a recent June patch to the game.

There is a broken down fort that is the base for some relatively weak vampires directly south of Chorrol. The fort is called Fort Carmala, and it is located near Hackdirt, very close to northeast of Weatherleah. To reach it, if you have not done the Hackdirt or Weatherleah quests, go to Chorrol. Leave from the south gate and move directly south. If you reach the city of Hackdirt, you are near it. Look for a group of white rocky ruins. The door to the cave is among the ruins.

Permanent Enchantment
Added on
2006-10-27 at 09:45:21
Use the following trick for duplication or a permanent enchantment. You can duplicate a drop-able item, and if that item is equipable with constant effect enchantments you can make them permanent. However, the item once made permanent cannot be re-equipped, but each enchanted item is different. You can use the "Duplicate items" trick to make as many as desired, then sell them. Use the "Duplicate items" trick with a bow an arrows to duplicate the items to make permanent. Equip one of the items you want to make permanent. There must be an unequipped version still in your inventory for this to work. Use the "Duplicate items" trick again; however, drop the unequipped version of the item you have equipped and want to make permanent. The equipped one and the others will drop and you will never be able to equip that item again, but if you check your stats the items bonuses will be permanent. You can duplicate anything that can be dropped, including Grand Soul Gems with Grand Souls captured.

Note that a recent June patch fixed this glitch.

Reducing Pauses (Clearing Cache)
Added on
2006-10-27 at 10:12:12
The game uses the hard drive extensively to cache (copy and reuse) game data. This is done to optimize all loading the game does. It has been found in rare cases on some Xbox 360s that the cached data can get overly fragmented. This happens if the game takes a long time to load anything from menus, dialogue, sounds, objects, levels, and more. To solve this problem, reset your Xbox 360 and hold A as the game is booting. If any button is held while the game is loading, it will clear its hard drive cache and create a new one. Once you see the Bethesda Softworks logo video, the game is already loaded, and the cache should have been cleared. Note: This does not effect your game in any way other than loading. You will not lose any saved data.

Glass and Enchanted Weapons and Armor in Border Watch
Added on
2006-10-27 at 10:03:50
There is a city called Border Watch, northwest of Leyawiin. Everyone there has nice Glass weapons, some of which are enchanted. You cannot steal them while they are sleeping, but can steal their armor (mithril). Go to the Sheregoth Shrine to do a quest. The Daedric will ask you to fulfill a prophesy. Do the quest, which includes three tasks. After this, go to one of the people's houses. You should be about level 15. Have a good sword ready, then go into Sneak mode and hit the person with a Sneak Attack x6. Do not stop and they will appear dazed. Once they are dead you can get their items, which are worth a lot of gold. Do this repeatedly to any house desired. Do not do it to the Shaman unless you are at a higher level. Some houses have two people inside. You can sometimes kill one person without the other waking up, then kill the other person.

While in Sigillum Sanguis (the Sigil Keep at the top of an Oblivion Citadel), save the game while standing in front of the Sigil Stone, before grabbing it. If you do not get the desired effects from the stone, load from the point before you grabbed it and try again. The Sigil Stone you get is chosen at random upon removing it.

Good Cheap House
Added on
2006-10-27 at 10:01:51
Go to the city of Anvil, then go to the inn. Inside is a man whose name starts with a "B". He is selling his grandfather's old manor. You can purchase it for 5,000 gold, which is very cheap considering that most houses are 15,000 gold and are not as good. The house (at first) is ugly and haunted. However, after completing the quick quest the house will be fixed up without any additional payment.

Easy Items
Added on
2006-10-27 at 09:58:32
Enter any store, but do not break in. Find a location where it is dark enough so that when you crouch down, the eye becomes transparent. Then, find items laying around the store (weapons and armor shop) and punch them into the dark corner. Crouch down and pick it up undetected. This is usefull for advancing in the Theives Guild.
If you try and kill important people (for example, counts and leaders of guilds), instead of dying they will become unconscious. There is a way to use this to your advantage. Find someone important in the game and try to kill that person in one shot (a power attack with a sword is recommended). When they fall unconscious, immediately go into Sneak mode and keep pressing A while aiming at them to try to steal from them. Eventually it will work. Press A as fast as possible because if you do it while they are getting up you can get caught. You will have no bounty on your head and no one disliking you any more than they did before.

Easy Stealing

Get the Gray Fox's mask and put it on. Steal something and wait for the guards to tell you, "Oh, you are the Gray Fox. I'm going to kill you" (or something similar). Select "Resist Arrest". Then, go to your inventory and take off the mask. Exit the menu, then yield to the guard by holding Block and pressing A to talk to him at the same time. He should walk away. You will not have a bounty, and you will still have the stolen item.

Easy Imperial Arena
Added on
2006-10-27 at 09:56:19
Get a bow or some decent spells. Make sure you have at least 30 in Acrobatics. Immediately after the gate drops, run to your right, to where the right gate meets the fence. Jump onto the stone piece that juts out, then jump again to get on top of the little piece sticking out above it. Once on top, turn and fire on your helpless victims. When you have to fight mages or archers, stay on the ground and strafe behind the four central pillars for easy kills.
Once you are a Champion in the Arena, talk to the Grand Champion about his nobility and how he needs proof of his nobility. He will send you on a quest to Crowhaven and give you a key. Use the fast travel system to get to Anvil. You will then need to travel northwest to get to the Crowhaven ruin. Beware of the skeleton archer and skeleton guardian. The archer is easy, but the guardian is not. Just block and strike and you will eventually kill the guardian. Once you get inside the ruin, watch out for wolves. There will be one to the right as you enter. Just follow the path through the ruin, killing the wolves and skeleton archers. When you get to the gate that needs a key, use the key the Grand Champ gave you to unlock it. Walk through the gate and the only monster will be a half naked man with an Elven dagger. Take your time and block and strike twice. Do not underestimate the little dagger. Once he is dead, find the journal and your quest will be updated. When you go out of the gate that you unlocked with the key, there is a door down to your left. Beware, as there are three vampires and one wolf. The vampires will give you a disease. There is not anything special down here, and is an optional area . Exit the ruin and fast travel back to the Arena. Talk to the Grand Championand he will become extremely depressed and not want to live. Challenge him in the arena. Talk to Ysabela about the challenge. Go up to the Arena. Once the gates drop he will charge at you. However, he will not attack you. He will tell you to kill him to put him out of his misery. Hack away at him. Once he dies you will get an Elven longsword and Dwarven shield (heavy). Bring back his Raiment Of Valor to get your own.

Paintbrush Glitch
Added on
2006-10-26 at 19:04:24
Paintbrushes have no physics applied to them. By none, I mean none. When you drop them out of your inventory, they stay in thin air. They cannot be moved or blown away by spells/arrows.
Well, paintbrushes can be walked on. You can jump onto a paintbrush (there is a small sphere of invisible walkable surface area). Drop another paintbrush infront of you, and you have a second step. You can make a staircase of paintbrushes and, ideally, reach any point of the game. The catch? It's not easy to pull off. If you jump too far, you'll be on the steep side of the walking area and won't be able to jump to the next paintbrush. Also, the walkable area is very small.
This glitch can get you high places like the top of a castle, high in the air randomly, or even on top of the Imperial Palace (watch out, the roof isn't solid, you need to stand on one of the things that stand up out of it).

Infinite Arrows

Equip any set of arrows, go into any area of the game (preferably an enclosed area, like a fighter's guild basement), take out any bow, and hold R to keep an arrow in your bow. Now, you have to be a journeyman(?) of acrobatics, but if you can combat roll, that's what you need to do this trick. Hold L, press Y, and move in any direction to roll. You will hear the arrow fly, but it will not decrease in your inventory. Go forth and pick up your dupe arrow. Repeat as many times as you like.

Easy Hand to Hand Skill
Added on
2006-10-27 at 09:54:33
This trick requires that your character has 100% or more Invisibility or Chameleon. This is done by either enchanting a number of armor, rings, or amulets, or you can enter an Oblivion Gate and keep reloading the game until you find the Sigil Stone that offers Silence and Chameleon. After you get that stone, use the "Duplicate items" trick to instantly enchant your items without having to find Soul Gems and Souls. Once you have Invisibility, go up to a guard and start beating him up using hand-to-hand combat. When he dies, more guards will keep spawning. You can just keep beating on them. You can also find a character that is marked with a crown that will not die, and only becomes unconscious. Because they do not see you, it is not bad. Also, they never die, so you can endlessly beat on them until you master Hand-To-Hand. Your skill increases about every 20 seconds or more, depending on how high your skill level already is.
Go to the Arena district in the Imperial City. Look for two NPCs fighting. Stand close to them for a minute and your Hand-To-Hand skill will increase by 5. This can only be done once.

Near the town of Bruna, go east, then southeast. If you reach The Red Ruby Cave you went too far. You will need to go back west slightly. You should see a shrine, that once activated, will give you Conjuration points as well as a temporary bound weapon and/or greaves. You can keep activating the shrine every 24 hours. Wait in front of it for 24 hours, then activate it again. Repeat this as many times as desired.

First you have to complete the Cure for Vampirism mission, and talk to The Count, Janus Hassidor.

Everytime you ask him about it you receive 1000 gold (or more depending on your level). Do this as many times as desired for unlimited gold. Note that a recent June patch has fixed this glitch.

Becoming a Vampire and Living as One
Added on
2006-10-27 at 10:06:17
Before becoming a vampire, it is recomended that you become a member of the Mages Guild, have access to the Arcane University, and either a member of the Dark Brotherhood or started the Order of Virtuous Blood quest.
Dark Brotherhood Story: Become a member of the Dark Brotherhood by killing an innocent person, going to sleep in an inn, traveling to the Inn of Ill Omen, and killing Rufio. Travel to the Sanctuary and talk to Vicente and finish all of his contracts. He will then ask if you wish to become a vampire. Say "Yes", then sleep on the slab. When you wake up, sleep again for twenty four hours three times. You are now a full-fledged vampire.
Order Of Virtuous Blood Story: It is not required to begin the quest, but if you do the vampires will be easier to kill. If you have not, travel along the river just to the east of Imperial City until you find a cave. Go in and you should find lots of vampires. Attack one and let it hit you a few times. Kill it, then go back to Imperial City. Get a room in an inn and sleep for twenty four hours three times. You are now a full-fledged vampire.
Vampires get a boost in many of their stats and abilities. The increase in abilities of a vampire is not determined by how much he sleeps but by how much he goes without feeding. Not exactly, but for each day a vampire goes without feeding, he will get a 5 point increase to his vampire stats and skills. To recieve these increases the vampire must sleep or wait. The game will notify you of these stat boosts. If the vampire is well fed, light will not harm him, but he will have 25% weakness to fire. After the first stat boost (which boosts vampire stats from 5 to 10), he will loose this weakness to fire. By looking under the magic tab, then the last of the five tabs in the magic section, one can see all the current effects on his character. The first thing is a "vampire meter" that has a percentage of how much one is a vampire (25% increments, starting at 25% going up to 100 in four stages). Depending on how high that percentage is, the sun will do more or less damage to you, from Sun Damage 1 all the way to 8. Furthermore, the time of the day is also important for sun damage. At dusk and dawn the damage dealt is very small, even to a 100% vampire. However, noon is a very dangerous time for a full vampire as he will have just enough time to run from one house on one side of the street to the other (depending on how much life he has). The stats that being a vampire increases are: Vampire Stats, Strength, Speed, Willpower, Sneak, Mysticism, Illusion, Hand to Hand, Destruction, Athletics, Acrobatics, and Resist Normal Weapons. Depending on which stage of the vampire you are in, you will get from 5 to 20 points in each of these stats (25% vampire = 5 points; 25% vampire = base vampire, fully fed). Other special stats or skills get added depending on the vampire level. Vampire Skills that are always present are: Hunter's Sight (Nighteye and Detect Life), Resist Disease 100%, and Resist Paralysis 100%.
Vampire 25% Weakness to Fire: 20 +5 to all of the vampire stats
Vamipre 50% Vampiric Seduction (charm on touch) +10 to all of the vampire stats
Vampire 75% Reign of Terror (fear) +15 to all of the vampire stats
Vampire 100% Embrace of Shadows (Invisibility + Night Eye) +20 to all of the vampire stats Note: Most people and merchants will not talk to you in this form. At base level you get +5 to Strength, Willpower, Speed, Acrobatics, Athletics, Destruction, Hand 2 Hand, Illusion, Mysticism, and Sneak. You also get a resistance to disease and paralysis, and a small resistance to normal weapons. For every day you go without feeding (up to a maximum of four days), your boosted skills will go up by an additional 5, as will your resistance to normal weapons. You also get a spell for each of the four days; on day one Hunter's Sight (Night Eye/Detect life), on day two Vampire's Seduction (Charm), on day three Reign of Terror (silence/demoralise area), and finally on day four Embrace of the Shadows (180 seconds Invisibliity, 90 seconds Night Eye). The weaknesses are, on day one (within 24 hours of last feeding) weakness to fire, you are safe from the sun; on day two (48 hours from last feeding), burn in sunlight; on day three (72 hours from last feeding), increased damage from sun; and on day four (over 96 hours from last feeding), everyone will recognize you as a vampire and most will not interact with you and there will be another increase in sun damage.

There is a woman named Arvena Thelas in the town of Anvil who has four rats in her basement (the same as the first Fighter's Guild quest). If your level is high enough that rats do not cause you significant damage, you can break into her house, annoy the rats by punching them (or casting drain fatigue spells if your punch is too strong), then letting all four rats attack you while occasionally casting a heal spell. This is also useful for raising your Block skill, and is much easier than repeatedly causing summoned monsters to attack you.

Using Shadowmere as Movable Storage
Added on
2006-10-27 at 09:25:16
Shadowmere is a hero character, meaning that you can not kill him. Since he is an animal you can loot him when he is knocked unconscious. You can also stock up items on him and they will stay on him throughout the game until you knock him out and remove them. The steps to do this are as follows.
Get Shadowmere (Fort Farrgut) and knock him unconscious (kill him). When he is laying on the ground you can open his body like any normal corpse. Place any items you wish to transport into his corpse's inventory. Let him get up and then go and take him wherever you want. To get the items back you can knock him out and take them out. They never disappear. You can have items in him for as long as you want. Even if he respawns back at the Fort Farrgut he will still have your items on him.
