Skyrim Level cap
- Thread starter Spindleweed
- Start date
I heard that @50 the enemies stop getting progressively harder as you level up. but that the cap is 81. So, starting at 50 you're becoming overpowered compared to the world around you. I'm at 48 right now and as far as I can tell I'm fighting the hardest version of every (Eldest Dragons, Death Lords, etc. ) They may still get more health, magic, etc but I don't think there are any new types left
I'd wondered what the level cap for skyrim was i'd kind of assumed it was 50 as there's an achievement for getting to lvl 50.
........what? Are you talking about staffs, or is there an enchantment or set of enchantment that allows you to do this? If so, you have made my mage a very very happy fictional character. =P4RM3D said:
Except in practice it's hard to hit that 81 cap. I found around 40-50 I'd maxed out my desired skills and a few others simply to get the perk points. Also it gets pretty boring when you're at that level.
With an enchanting at 100, you can apply skill buffs to armor equal a 25% reduction in mana cost for specific magic types (i.e destruction, restoration, etc). Put that bluff on four pieces of armor, and you can cast magic from that school for free.neurohazzard said:
I've heard the XP curve becomes something closer to a wall once you hit 50.
DA2 had a level cap of 70 or something else silly since you max out at 20-ish, it's similar here only there's no soft cap so it makes more sense.

Eh, I hadn't really bothered learning what the cap was. I just put my points into what I thought I'd need, and seeing as I'm not a Jack-of-all-trades like I normally am, I'm probably going to be struggling to find somewhere to put those 80 points. There's only so much I want to smith, and after that unbreakable pick lockpicking perk, there is no need for any others. Enchanting I'm just rushing to the 2 enchantments, and getting the soul drain ones as it makes things easy on me, 1 handed I've barely progressed beyond the first perk, and the critical strike and dual wield (1 point in each), I've put A point into restoration to reduce the cost of Novice or W/E spells, and Destruction I've just got the first Dual Casting Perk, and the Novice mana use reduction. I'm already finding that I'm looking for what I actually want to put my perks into, and I'm only level 30. Sure, I could go for an uber power build, but a build suited to my playstyle seems like more fun.
Most likely he used the glitch to duplicate the Oghma Infinitum, which gets you to level 81 in no time at all.ToTaL LoLiGe said:
As pointed out by EnigmaticSevens you can use 4 enchants to get 1 school of magic without the use of mana. I would like to add that you do need to have a lot of points into enchantment and while you are at it, you should unlock the final enchantment which allows 2 enchants on 1 piece, meaning you can choose 2 schools of magic.neurohazzard said:
If you alternate between certain standing stone's, thief/warrior/mage, you can level your skill quicker. Then if you are actually trying to get to 81 fairly and plan it out I doubt it's that bad at all, just start training the skill you never use with trainers at an early stage so you don't have to worry about them. I think it's possible just doing regular quest and not having to go dungeon diving every time.Amphoteric said:
Or, you can use the deadric artifact glitch where you can max out your skills in all unused skills in minutes.
You can get to level 81. That's when you get everything to 100.
My suggestion? Get a mod that lets you increase the number of perks per level up.

I guess I know what I'm doing for the rest of my life. My highest character is only on level 37.
Raising Conjuration as now caster was pretty darn easy. With those conjured weapons it leveled up in no time.
There is a level 50 cap but its on the followers and not the player. theres a mod that removes that cap though I cnt see what good it would do because once you go past it you really dont need a partner since you wont need a mule anymore because the loot just isnt worth the time and effort to collect and sell because theres nothing left that costs mad amounts of gold. plus having a backup for a fight is not needed anymore.
