Is this ''cheating?''

[Baneat]

In fallout 3, in most of my playthroughs, i would give myself 10,000 bottlecaps, 10000 rounds of .44 ammo, and the Lincoln Repeater (by far my favorite gun in the game) at the beginning. And I would up by science, lockpicking, speech, and repair up to 100 at the beginning (Science and lockpicking to get by locks and computers, speech so that I dont miss dialogue options, and repair so that I could keep my Lincoln Repeater at the best condition possible all the time.)

I admit to hacking SP bethesda games. I'm not going to miss out on exploring what's inside a chest or behind a door as part of RP, I'd rather just see what there is to see.

That would be cheating yes. In the end though, who cares. I am surprised you go through that many arrows though. I used a lot of marksman in Oblivion and never ran out.

 

[kidd25]

if i have the money to buy something, but i steal it instead is that robbing, hell yeah. look at it this way, you can pick up the arrows or you can get them back no question ask and keep playing without losing a bit of fun.

But no one loss anything in the OPs way. So it is really robbery?

well of course not, he created them out of thin air, err code. so its not robbery its more like if i can do it i will, but this is not normal done by others so does that mean its ok.

It's cheating, but it's a totally understandable and defensible kind. You're hurting no one. You're just ridding yourself of a hassle.

And a high five to my fellow archer.

I think I will stop and try and train up a melee skill just to be in the spirit of things. I don't sually cheat at anything.

I started doing it becuase I was stuck in passwall with about 10 knights of order attacking my dark seducer with no arrows...

So I gave myself the arrows and kicked ass.

 

[LostCrusader]

sooo spend all that gold you say you have on arrows or get better in blade/blunt/ magic

Well I'm kind of planning to level my magic as my marksman is maxed now. I just seem to get into the zone and I run out of arrows and its depressing. :<

If your marksmen is maxed, how are you running out of so many arrows? I think I remember if your marksmen is high you can pull more of the arrows out of a body.

Also yes I think it is cheating but its a single player game so it only matters if you care. I did something similar my first play through by staying lvl 4 for 2/3 of the game.

As far as I'm concerned being an archer is cheating yourself out of the oblivion experience. Unless this is just for the challenge? And if your doing it for the challenge then spawning arrows would be cheating

I play as stealth and archer it seems to work pretty well so far. Well apart from the arrow usage thing. :<

I have illusion magic too.

Oh well I guess stealth and archer is a good combination. I would just stock up on more arrows. If your arena champion you could make your biggest fan carry a bunch on them.

I would say no, it's not giving you an unfair advantage over anyone.

Could it be possible its because I don't have 'Master' I left for the Shivering isles before I maxed it.

 

[LordGarbageMan]

Not in Oblivion where you can put the difficulty to easy and kill in like 2 arrows. At least that's what I did when I got bored XD. In Fallout 3 I actually played on very easy all the way through. Getting one shot kills with the hunting rifle in VATS just feels too good.

 

[Kungfu_Teddybear]

Nah I wouldn't say so, it's not like gamebreaking or anything.

I use the console commands quite a bit cause sometimes it can be a laugh. Like on Morrowind when I got bored and made everyone in Balmora jump up and down on the spot.

BTW the name of my khajiit marksman with arrow troubles is Nyan Mewnsugar.

You should go looking for a mod that makes a rainbow follow her

You're playing a single player RPG. Therefore, it's not cheating, it's "magic!"

Sometimes she keybinds different spell schools and runs along casting them :3

 

[Amondren]

Its still cheating but if you just drop the gold then it evens out its tedious having to trek back and forth I know the feeling.

 

[aarontg]

Not really. I call it being efficient since you don't have to go running back to town every few minutes.
