So I got a transcendent sigil stone, +50 magicka. I enchant a ring, and put it on. I save and quit, and come back. It's gone. I never took it off, it's just gone from my inventory.

I used the console to get my sigil stone back and made another. Gone again, after saving and reloading. What is the deal?

Also, I want to understand attributes more. I know if I put a point in strength I get more weight, but what about willpower and personality, etc? What does it do when you put a point into it?

Hello and welcome to gamesas Help Line. This conversation may be recorded and/or monitored. My name ia Renee and will try to assist you with your query. Hmm, but I'm seeing the words "never took it off". So my first question was gonna be "are you on PC?" Turns out, you are.

So that eliminates me as a Solution Help Desk Associate. But no worries. Someone else should be able to help you with your issue very shortly.

Sorry, havin' a little fun, there. I have no idea...one of the PC techies will, though. Probably mod-related.

So far as you second set of questions go: you don't "get more weight" if you add ST, you merely gain the ability to carry more weight.

Adding Willpower makes Magicka regeneration faster, and affects a few other varialbes. Really, you can just look up what attributes do in the game's attributes menus. It should be all right there in the game, right? .
