Ghost Gate

once my minimap went completely black for about a week, then randomly started working again

[zetherkk]

i was at level 26 when my game started going buggy, i couldn't level up and my spells didn't work, all i could do was go around and kill things with my sword and everytime i killed something the game would tell me i should rest and meditate and when i would it would not level me up. i tried starting the game from an earlier savepoint but the problem persisted. needless to say i had to start the game over from scratch, bummer

Ehhh finally I managed to kill one of them.....then both disappeared!!!

Those Hands of almalexia are a b**** to kill, I was going about killing Almalexia before doing the main quest, sure Almalexia was easy to kill but I think those 6 hands were each as powerful as her. Let me give you some stats
Hands of Almalexia: 394 health (not much) but 200 heavy armour skill, 150 block and 3 pts restore health per sec with their good armour and 5 exquisite health potions means they can take a punishment. 125 speed and endurance, 170 strength and agility, 150% resistance to fire, 40% reflect, around 50% resistance to frost, shock and paralysis; 20% to poision. 45% fortify attack. 1-43 ebony simitiar with an ok attack enchantment but only has 10 use so doesn't do much, except if you don't have reflect in which case it absorbs 50 strength for 10 seconds and damages 5 strength when multiplied by 6 leaves you with very little so you need reflect. One thing I noticed (didn't at the time), they don't have any resist magicka; wish I knew that because my frost spells weren't very effective.

Almalexia: 3000 health but no regeneration or defense agaisnt physical attacks. Immunity to fire, poison, paralysis, disease & normal weapons. 50 resist shock, magicka and frost. 100-100 damage and hopefire which does 30-70 damage. But she only has 80 speed so is slower than the hand of almalexia. Her spell has weakness to fire 75% for 5s, fire damage 100pts & absorb health 40 with 10 shots of those. No reflect though. And note if you fight her before your supposed to she has 1-5pt regeneration per second.
All in all I think the hands are harder to beat because of their high armour and block and their large amounts of health potions (unless you pick pocket them). In a 1 on 1 fight I'd except a hand to win but I haven't tried this (I should) though that is largely because they have high resistance to fire.

Not sure if somebody mentioned this before. But sea creatures on the land. I find them quite alot now, and It always supprises me exactly how far they get up land. For some reason they seem to come in bunchs, usaully 3 dreugh on the top of a hill by the water or a couple of slaughterfish on the shore. Tends to be on steap surfaces though, not sure if thats related to the bug.

How about land creatures on the sea? I was on a mission in Raven Rock where you must destroy a mass of spriggans around the colony site. Unfortunately, I couldn't find one of them. It wasn't until my next reload (I should have saved more...) that I saw what had happened - a spriggan was running over the sea, half-submerged since it had no swimming animation.

First time this has every happened (that I noticed). I went to buy an item (without selling anything) and when I bought it I got the amount of money I was supposed to pay given to me instead of taken, as well as the item. I checked and nothing was missing from my inventory either.

yeah that happened to me once, I "gave" an item for a quest or somethin and I had a duplicate item in my inventory. I shrugged and went on with the game though.

Y'all, are propably not going to believe tis but, I killed Vivec once, and when I walk outside, the moon drops, hit the temple and then both dissapear.

Wacko, I was like stirring for fifteen minutes, before I splurted out with laugh

Que???? The moon? you mean one of those in the sky? Hehe......that was really weird!

One thing happened to me when I was on Solstheim, playing bloodmon and making that quest where you have to learn a tune from some music-stones in a cave....Well when I was standing there (Serene naturally...not me!)..then suddenly two ordinators appeared..and not regular ordinators.....they were Almalexia´s Hands..and those meanies started to hit me ! I was so astonished so I forgot to defend myself..so..I died! Or Serene did......

so..just reload a previous save.....

[Tellie]

No, minkey, not the moon on the sky ( that would have been weirder though), the ministry of truth howering above the temple, that was supposed to be a moon that a deadra lord threw agains vivec( dont remember which one though ), so Vivec caught hold of it, and as a symbol it's howering above the temple, held up by Lord Vivec's powers.

OMG! Noo....jeez.....that must have been extremely funny...sorry but I must say I would have been quite stunned.......
So what happened to the temple you said?.......and how did the other NPCs react?

did you take a screenshot of it?

[Tellie]

oh geeeze, I should have taken a screenshot of it, but didn't think of that at that particular moment.

The weirdest thing though was, all the exterior that still stood there.

All the NPC's was walking around, doors stood there, the library was there etc, it's the funniest thing I've ever experienced in a game.

[gamer10]

The oddest glitch that ever occured for me is when my character suddenly had no head . . .then again I might've been messing around with the textures, or I might've disabled a mod for the head I had on.

It was just strange.

[Soulseeker3.0]

then again I might've been messing around with the textures, or I might've disabled a mod for the head I had on.

yeah, that tends to do things like that....

that reminds me, of those boots bethesda put in that were "invisible" becasue they didn't have a texture... I think it was the Ten Pace Boots or something like that

On the quest to build your Estate in Raven Rock, everytime I have to meet with Aldam Berenduds (the NPC who marks the position for you) he is always standing about 2 meters in the air and won't follow. Talk about being looked down on!

[Pisces]

Oh, when I was a werewolf my head dissappeared and for some reason a werewolf's neck looks like a butt (not obviously like it but pretty similiar), I never fixed it and so untill I got cured I was a werebutthead and then I got the ring to transform me into a butthead at will.

For some reason my character was shadowy and see-through (this was on a friend's xbox at the time). He infact, was mostly just a hardly visible outline of a man in armor, but when I was over a surface (like the ground, or having my character in front of a building) he was just completly shadowed and translucent.

It stopped, to my dismay, after I died and had to reload.

[Red]

I was playing with my summon Dremora spell (dropping him from the sky, mostly) while using a levitation item. Well, the item wore off and I fell into the water below me (I was between the foriegn quarter and some other quarter in Vivec) and nearly died. So I thought "Water fight!", healed, and then summoned and fought the summoned Dremora. I won because of my awesome wepons and his body started to float across the water. I followed said body, and when it hit the wall of the Foriegn quarter, the entire building dissapeared and all of the NPCs on the exterior fell into the water. Quite funny to watch.

[Neela]

I don't remember too many actual glitches, but I do remember a couple unexpected things when I was experimenting with the CS. I had just made a new race and must have checked the box for beast race by accident. Needless to say, the lower portion of my body was way out of whack when I made my character. Also had many times when a texture wasn't found and ended up missing body part sections.

I also found a variable that I tweaked thinking that it would give me a level up after 9 skill advances instead of ten. It worked initially but then I started getting a level sooner and sooner until eventually I levelled everytime I slept... even without a skill advance.
