I am still amazed at how the light from torches and fires not only dynamically flickers and changes, but how the shadows they cast do the same in concert.

I just noticed that in Windhelm, ice-cycles hang off the roofs of some *of the houses blink.gif

I just found that the Magelight spell sets off bear traps and tripwires.

WHAT//. Sorry. WHAT???? Seriously, I would have never guessed this!

Did you know that some traps can be picked up and moved?

You can move bear traps. I never remember to do it though.

There would be more of a point to do it if they were more useful.

I just learned we can make previously improved armor & weapons stronger. In other words, I had no idea it's possible to make superior-strength items into exquisite-strength ones!

EDIT: a couple vampires attacked as LHM and Mjoll stepped outside of Lakeview. I noticed as the attack was going on that another NPC was fighting the vamps, but it wasn't Marcurio and it wasn't Mjoll the Lioness. Who the heck is that helping out?

Turns out it was the carriage driver! laugh.gif LHM has a permanent carriage located in front of the manor house. I had no idea the driver can get off his carriage and help out with fights.

EDIT 2 (I'm having a gaming marathon today!) You were right, Grits: followers do use generic potions. smile.gif I've been keeping track of this, Mjoll just drank 4 of her 8 minor health potions after a good fight.

Really?...You've never got to Epic and Legendary ones?...It does depend on your smithing level and the perks you've got, but yes...Another "interesting" fact about the smithing levelling...If you have a sword, say Dwarven longsword and keep improving it as you go up through the levels, it will do more damage than one which you just pick up and improve at said upper level, simply because it's had the added improvements as you go up through...

Also, I think there should be new states beyond Legendary...I've got some of that smithing enchanted armour and rings and stuff...And if you put one item on and improve, with some of them, if you put another item on, you can improve again, then again, and finally with the blacksmith's philter potion, you can do it again...

This is why J'zirlo's weapons and armour is rated so high...*Sighs* wub.gif ...I love Smithing... laugh.gif ...

That's going to be the one I do with the 1.9 Legendary perk reset thing...*Rubs hands with glee...No...Not the show...*...

laugh.gif Oh I knew weapons could be improved, but I didn't know an improved weapon could be improved again. I had assumed we only get one shot at it.

And yes, I am noticing in Haaf-Mersey's game that his improved weapons seem to be getting stronger than most of the standard enchanted weapons we can find. But I didn't know what you just said: that if we improve the same weapon over time, it winds up being stronger than a 'new' weapon we find and improve.

...phew...my head is spinning. wacko.gif

That I didn't know. Weird.

I think it's to do with the added weight of the extra ingots that have been added through the improvements...

laugh.gif I have always wondered how five 1 pound iron ingots and three .1 pound leather strips make a suit of armor that weighs 30 pounds! whistling.gif

I saw the carriage driver jump off his bench once and run for Whiterun. I turned to follow but then some vampires showed up. Being a Dawnguard with overpowered flaming everything, I showed them the light naturally. I never did find out where the driver stopped running though and waiting didn't bring him back so I had to take the slow route to Riften. (For clarification. I'm using mods that make normal citizens run from dragons and vampires instead of boxing with them. Doesn't work for Adrienne though)


And something tiny I 'discovered' when I was making my new character concept for potential fanficcing. We all know captain blowhard who insists on getting her daily quota of executions despite not having any idea who you are and why you got picked up. (Seriously, they even know Lokir! But you're a big blank and almost feel like an afterthought.)

We also all know that she has different responses to the player's race. From casual racism (lizard, cat) to rather neutral stuff. What I didn't know was how pissed she gets if you're an Imperial. "Next, the renegade from Cyrodiil!" mad.gif I guess she doesn't like having 'her' kind help the Stormcloaks. It is a tiny detail and the captain vanishes from the game within two minutes, but I like that bit of character it gives her.

Different colored wolves. Not the ice wolves, the regular wolves. I saw two reddish ones along with the usual black.

Has anyone else seen this?

OK, then I'm glad I didn't tear the house apart looking for a camera to take a picture of my TV with the RED MIRACLE WOLVES on it! hehe.gif

Seriously, how have I never seen these before?! Still finding new things!
