Heh, it's ironic I think that for some of us, we used to put lots of effort into making things easier; now however, we put that effort into making things harder. For example, as I mentioned above, Buffy's current bow is not enchanted.


Some of us are probably past meta-gaming into meta-meta-gaming, where we're constantly fiddling with the ways we restrict our character to get maximum challenge without crossing into impossibility.

I’d have to say the Escutcheon of Chorrol. It’s the only thing that I can remember having to put away.

Even if putting restrictions on our characters is considered roleplaying, I guess it also could be considered meta-gaming as well! laugh.gif

Lothran has one interesting bow that is sometimes but rarely used. It has weakness to all elements and magic, all 100% for 20 secs. Itīs pretty damn powerful in conjunction with his custom elemental spell, but not on its own of course.

In all the games I played, I never created my own enchantment for a weapon till the last game - it was a bow (do I hear laughter in the background regarding my character's aiming issues with bows? Lol) - that thing would throw the NPC through the air backwards when they were hit - it was Awesome! The only thing that kept it from being overpowered was the fact that I couldn't hit my target but once every 70 arrows.

I also created these two enchantments for the bow with the highest available degree of the spell: Control humanoid, control beast - used to perch hidden and keep shooting till I hit something and got them to fight each other in places with too many enemies - then search the ground for any stray arrows afterward, always finding bunches of them where I'd missed, lol.

Oh, I enchanted weapons before that - just never tried creating my own enchantment. Didn't know you could till Acadian told me about doing it for Buffy. I got really excited, and took it to the max. Really cool to see those NPC's fly through the air backwards, that never gets old. (possibly because I can't hit them often enough for it to - I can't aim with the bow to save my life).

That is the truth, on that "Arrow of Extrication" quest I drank potions, cast spells, and wore enchanted clothing to boost my archery - saved the game - had to reload that save like 152 times before hitting the statue.

There is one Oblivion dungeon that you can't enter without putting an arrow in the eye of a statue - You are standing 5 feet away and I used about 50 arrows to get into that dungeon.

Lol - how do you think Maxical got her "dis-ability" with the bow and arrow in her story? She came by it naturally, lol.


EDIT: Oops, double posted by accident - apology.

rollinglaugh.gif Oh my. I'm trying to get up from rolling on the floor, mALX. The thing is, I can so very clearly see our determined kit with the abysmal aim taking 152 tries with the arrow of excomunication (lol).

Yup, I think perhaps Maxical and Buffy were made from a unique set of opposing molds that were clearly designed for one time use. Buffy got the ability to aim and heal, while Maxical got the ability to use armor and make a blade truly sing. Unfortunately, by trying to make two characters, both got shorted on physical size and the ability to quickly figure out complex things. Hug_emoticon.gif

They are exact opposits skill-wise, and would work so well together because of it:


Buffy can heal = Maxical can't
Buffy can shoot bow & arrows = Maxical can't
Maxical is good with swords = Buffy isn't

Maxical was really planning to rely on Buffy's bow and arrow + healing in that RP if she had been allowed to join, lol. In exchange for the help she planned to bestow upon Buffy her very own copy of Casta Scribonia's latest novel "Weak Willed Women" - complete with drawn illustrations.
