Too OP : V

» Sat Mar 09, 2013 12:18 pm

I recently made my character too op. He kills every thing in one hit. Ive grown tired of this. I dont want to make a new character because ive grown to attached to this one. I was thinking of taking away his enchantments and using a non-improve-able weapon like the ebony blade. Any ideas guys?

I guess you used the Fortify Restoration loop?

For a little bit i did but theres so many factors ive put in like the enchant/smith/alch loop also the necromage vampire perk

Kind of your fault for exploiting looping then, huh.

the only thing id count as an exploit would be the restoration one

I only did it for the unlimited shouts, and being able to carry significantly more.

Not sure if you can still do this but cap your HP at 300-320.

Why dont you try using crappy armour, clothing and wepons or use your fists. Whats a restoration loop?

I suppose you are already on Master?
As you say, try to remove excessive enchanted/smithed items/weapons. Maybe keep only a few of some of your favorite items and perhaps don't use all of them in the same combat situation. Experiment, and see what weapon that gives the best balance between challenge and accomplishment. Limit yourself to a particular fighting style no matter what. Good for RP and it's more fun and challenging

Get rid of the overpowered enchanted weapons and armor, and then go out and buy/loot new stuff and don't enchant or improve it? Only use items that are already enchanted, and only use potions that you can buy or find in the game?

I can't wait for Legendary difficulty. That will be interesting.

Alright well just use iron armour or any mid level type of piece

Or he could select two or three of his favourite items and store the rest away or sell it. I think experimenting with different weapons/armor/items is the way to go. It's hard to get rid of a fav weapon

Keep the fortify health/stamina/carry enchants capped at no higher than 1000-1100. Use a non smithed weapon, intermediate armor, switch to master, and have a blast going toe to toe with briarhearts while maintaining (the ability to die(challenge).

I think that's too much health.

This. Also, just make new stuff that isn't OP'd, it's that simple.

Been there. I eventually went to a random waterfall and dropped all the OP gear. I did keep some boots enchanted with carry weight as I hate over encumbrance.

With a level 30+ character you won't be weak anyway.

I thought so too, though with a 200-300 armor rating, master-legendary as difficulty, and non-smithed weapons, it isn't half OP. Master Vampires and even bandit chiefs-marauders are more than capable of killing you. Just now, you can engage In prolonged meeles with them.
