BigSteel Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Is everything that uses magika considered a spell?Is their any difference between an "ability" and a spell or a weapon skill? When using a Destruction Staff "spell" does the inherent damage of the staff itself make a difference to how much the spell does? (example: Wall of Elements: Fire does 2 damage x2 for a toal of 4 damage despite using 53 magica. Or half of your initial mana bar.) Its pretty incredibly low for Destruction spell. But if it was modified by the Staff itself, then it would make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speely Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Hello, Elder Souls! I have a question regarding resource recovery and regeneration.Reading Thal's excellent info on the state of the game, it appears the Stamina has a base regeneration percentage rate of 5.5 and Magicka somewhere between 4 and 5 per two seconds. This percentage of your total pool determines the Recovery attribute score for the relevant resource, and that Recovery is ostensibly affected by any bonuses from armor passives, racial passives, etc.My question is concerning the wording of certain skill descriptions. The racial passives "Spellcharge" and "Vigor" both state that they increase "recovery" while every other +regen skill for all three resources refers to "regeneration," even other "in combat" specific regens like "Robust." All armor passives and class skills refer to "regeneration" as well, leaving only Vigor and Spellcharge to refer to Recovery. This wording is used in every description I have seen, no matter the source.Do you think this is indicative of the way those two skills affect regeneration (i.e. directly adding to base % vs raising it by x percent, as an example) or is it just a curiously-specific deviation from the normal language used to describe regeneration rates?

Guest Guest Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 any hearsay / rumors / words regarding Frost and Poison as a "theme" for anyone of the classes?- great site btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irons Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 The only ice based skills are destruction staff attacks with a frost staff and for poison there are only a few sources for it for example the enchantment life steal inflicts disease dmg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypr Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I have a question regarding soul gems.Can those be crafted (in that case, by which proffession?) or can they be baught? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yerion Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I have a question regarding soul gems.Can those be crafted (in that case, by which proffession?) or can they be baught? You buy them from vendors. Empty soul gems are a lot cheaper compared to filled gems. So better use the soul trap spell that you get for free after completing the tutorial to safe some money. Also you get 1 filled soul gem from eahc boss in the instanced dungeons (at least how it was with the first 3 low level dungeons). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypr Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Correct me if im wrong, but healing and destuction staff + the abilities frm the mages guild cost magica (as it says in the eldersoulds database). In the esohead skillcalc they cost stamina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genom Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Is there any other way to receive a soul gem except the NPC vendor?How many skill lines are we able to max until lvl 50? I mean in common case, which means that not all sky shards are discovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean in common case, which means that not all sky shards are discovered. Soul gems drop very often in dungeons, if you run enough dungeons you will never have a shortage. You can max out 6 skill trees by 50 (2 weapons, 1 armor, all 3 class trees) But you need to do it right, or you will waste time in one way or another and hit 50 without reaching max level in your trees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaMii Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 how does overload's damage scale? with magicka, stamina or your weapons damage ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypr Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 What is the idea of filling up the soul gems? Why we do that? you can use a filled gem to do things, such as revive a friend or your self on the spot where you died, when you die. Q:Looking at the Khajiit's passives i found One called Carnage""Carnage / +1/2/3% critical rating for melee attacks. / +5/10/15% damage done with critical hits."1: Bow does not count as melee attack, right?2: Does the increased critical damage only apply to melee?

genom Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 I have a question:In cyrodiil at armor vendor there are two choices with equal prices. the one is called small piece the other is large piece of armor. what does that mean? i was thinking that larger pieces could be chests and pants, but they are not, because i bought large piece of armor and got a helmet. please explain this.
