In our latest Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim video we delve into the power of Destruction Magic.
Dragonbreaks: • The MOST Confusing Con...
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an open world action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series, following The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2011.
The game's main story revolves around the player character and their quest to defeat Alduin the World-Eater, a dragon who is prophesied to destroy the world. The videogame is set two hundred years after the events of Oblivion, and takes place in the fictional province of Skyrim. Over the course of the game, the player completes quests and develops the character by improving skills. The game continues the open world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the player to travel anywhere in the game world at any time, and to ignore or postpone the main storyline indefinitely.

I like to roleplay a master of alteration and use nothing but console commands
Is your alteration skill has reached to 999 level?

I do the same thing but I explain it as tonal architecture
That's called CHIM.

The Destruction school of magic is a pathway to abilities some would consider to be "unnatural"
POWER!!! UNLIMITED POWER!!!!!!!!!!!
I once created Palpatine in Skyrim.
Palps likes grinding out his destruction skill and pretending it's conjuration. Poor anakin had such low perception, he had no idea.
Odojinya87 Every time you cast lightning spell
....do it.
Every time Drew speaks about magic:
"It is underappreciated, understudied, and the academics are bloody cowards for not studying it further."
I'm surprised Drew didn't get kicked out of Winterhold yet.
Calling it understudied and calling the academics cowards for not studying it further basicly insults the teachers because they think they have learned everything from it, thus, the wise and usually levelheaded teachers try to provw him wrong, by studying it and realising the full potential of their particular school of magic
@@SilverGamingFI
Yep, he's basically pushing them to go all out
Destruction magic's fine. Just don't go burning down any buildings

been a while since I played but it shouldn't be that expensive for either gold or magika.
try doing only 100 maybe 95. make sure the duration is 1 second. I cant remember if destruction leveling helped. pretty sure I used black soulgems and filled it with humanoids
You can also grind destruction by making a weak drain life on yourself repeatedly.

Ateration: Changing reality.
Illusion: Making a fake reality in someone's head.
Conjuration: Forcing other beings from different realities into your own.
Restoration: Bringing raw life energy into the world by will.
Destruction: Destroying and rejecting reality itself.
If these are the highest forms of we call the "schools" of magic, then anyone who would call mages weak "milkdrinkers" deserves to be laughed at.
Tell that to the 500
@@noxflo897 Funny enough, there were a decent amount of ancient Atmorans and Nords that were practitioners of arcane magic during that time period. I believe even some of the Companions used magic as well to help along with their conquest. Also, the Thu'um itself is a form of magic, so funny enough the point still stands.
Cold Lightning9 Not only that but Tsun calls lets you into Shor's hall if you say you are the archmage. Apparently wizard were once highly respected in Skyrim and called "clevermen"
@@Mars20231 Pretty much cements the point that you need some grasp of magic to accomplish a noteworthy great deed in the TES verse. Many of the souls in Sovngarde were Mages or Tongues, other notable warriors were blessed or had a strong, enchanted piece of weapons and gear. Many of the ancient Nords were even decent at magic. That one guy, can't remember the name, where you had to help that Dunmer get into his tomb on Solstheim. He was a Nord and was described as a genius in the Enchantment school, even becoming strong enough to manipulate and corrupt the mind.
It really shows you how stupid minded the current Nords are being. They don't even understand that they're talking down to and disgracing many of their ancestors that paved the way for them with magic. It's no wonder the Thalmor are having a field day with manipulating them against each other.
@@cold_Lightning9
This Nord master enchanter, do you mean the Dragon Priest Ahzidal?
Words of advice: don't use the level 100 fire destruction spell with a follower. Rest in piece Ria 2011-2018.
You blew up a 7 year old?
Several
there's a spell to resurrect the dead, it's a mod though, but very handy for such accidents lol
Just download the Dragonborn DLC and find that one Black Book where Hermaus Mora gives you the option of gaining the ability for your allies to be completely immune to all of your attacks. Problem solved.
@Human Resources I've used console commands for for resurrecting the dead. The spell is quicker, and more handy.
When my dad saw the lightning spell in Skyrim he said "well now you just got to say never underestimate the power of the dark side!" I just laughed with him we're geeks
J O C K
how cute ^3^
You touched upon the beneficial uses for destruction magic to purge ailment from the body, but what more basic applications such as lighting a hearth fire or chilling a blaze before it gets out of hand?
Good thinking right there :D
And even more importantly: heating up my hot chocolade.
How else would I heat up my tendies?
Apparently destruction can open doors... no? Well remember the mage questline? 😂
Whats more, chilling your mead to just the right temperature.
5:10 "A lot of Damage vs Flex Seal"
I feel like the Restoration School will progress by leaps and bounds from this revelation.
i love that talking about how narrow minded "scholars and the great masters" are when discussing the traditional schools, inadvertently throws shade at Bethesdas lack of creativity when it came to magic.
Bethesda should get a new game engine finally
@@jeremywatters2295 or just fix the one they have instead of bolting on new broken systems like bad proc gen world spaces
I really wish destruction were more nuanced in Skyrim. All we get is the fire/frost/shock magics and nothing else, and I really miss the spells that would make foes become weaker to elements, or that simply drained their atributes. It allowed me to make a less flashy destruction mage in the previous games. Not to mention how underpowered this school (and magic in general) became
Vito Santo there are PLENTY of mods that correct this. That’s on you.
@@Randy_Flamethrower There are mods, true enough, but my point is that the Destruction magic we get in game doesn't do justice to what is seen in lore, or in the previous games. Much was removed, and few novelties were added. I just think the next TES installment would benefit from a more fleshed out variety of Destruction spells
Making a enemy weaker is cool and all but shooting a ball of fire seems to me more practical.
Why not make an enemy weaker and fucking annihilate them with the fireball instead of just hurting them
Phenderix gives you earth, wind, and water magic
What about a shock spell that can ressurect people? A small shock to the heart.
I assume it would work but no one in the elder Scrolls universe has the scientific knowledge to attempt it
@@Ac0303 With the arts of restoration and especially necromancy, one would assume that such knowledge is known. Although, I suppose that even in the elder scrolls universe thinking that electrical current can be used to restart a heart would be crazy.
for that one needs the soul in body first lol
@@Kami-Sama197 I'll just stay dead, then. 🙃
Andrei Gabriel
It doesnt restart hearts, it helps it beat faster, but once dead they cant beat again
"A lot of damage to flex seal" good grief! I love this reference.
except that last guys knowledge if destroyed would only make its way to apocrypha...no knowledge is truly lost in mundus
It was probably already there from someone else earlier in history.

I woke up hearing destruction magic, thought it was just some mages, but it was fudgemuppet
Ah man my favorite dadric Lord
This series is just calling out Bethesda for their shawty work on Skyrim's magic.
@Zach A shawty.
@Zach A yah.
Get anything destruction magic is the face of Magic. It could be considered possibly the easiest to learn the hardest to master. Any mage can learn how to use ice fire and lightning. It's possibly also the easiest to prepare yourself against unlike the other schools of magic. You can wind up harming yourself just as much is harming others.
Pretty much. No matter what discipline you take in the schools of magic, every single respectable Mage has at least a decent handling of Destruction magic.
Complete masters of Destruction have been described as utterly disintegrating foes with a wave of the hand, turn people inside and out, and splitting the ground asunder. Definitely the most useful of schools for a good reason.
Zach Hibbard Illusion would be the hardest to master, turning dreams into reality
@@oghaze9318 there are a lot of magics that should be used differently than what they're intentionally used for. It should be illusion or destruction or completely different one. Really hard to say for me.
OG Haze what about alteration? With illusion you can turn dreams into reality, but to literally change the world around you to “turn dreams into reality”? You gotta admit that sounds pretty hard to master. Btw still love the heck out of the illusion school of magic though :).
@@elric7415 I mean alteration's possibilities are limitless. Someone with a more scientific approach to the world could easily learn to use alteration to change the chemical makeup of the very atmosphere around them, turn a dry field into a field of freshly seared animal flesh ready to be cut and served, it could allow someone to create a castle with a snap of their fingers, or alter the user's physiology in order to be able to live in any environment.
The applications are varied and useful in day to day life as well as combat, but hey fuck me its only armor and gold for the game's purposes.
A cool and memorable location to add in a future elder scrolls would be a sanctuary/hospital for mages who suffered from magical accidents to go to. So you’d meet mages who are permanently invisible or burned or turned into an animal ect ect; basically the possibilities for interesting characters would be endless. I think you could also help some of them become normal again through practice of magic and research. Kinda like quests or how new Vegas required you to have supplies or a specific medical skill to help people
That's a great idea
You should do a video dedicated to Shalador, his adventures, and the creation of Labyrinth and the maze
Bastony they did

No lol otherwise it might have actually just lit the pipe 😂
"A lot of damage versus Flex Seal" well spoken, I can see you a man of culture as well.
Destruction is the Padme to restoration's Ani. 5:04
😂
"Those ivory tower elitists at the Arcane University need to stop attacking free speech" is an odd take on a story that ends with the "renegade scholar" going mad and taken by Sheogorath lol
Love how you took a particular school of magic and delved into it in this video...keep it up!
You mentioned drain health spells around ^:00, and that's how I played oblivion. You can set a 100pt drain enchant on a weapon for 1 second, and that's more health than a lot of enemies. The game thinks that 1 second of drain health is weak, so the enchant is cheap; but it's an instant kill. Put it on a fast attack speed dagger, and you cut through everything like butter.
This is such a brilliant video, Drew. Fantastic writing. There are some interesting implications here - about the dichotomy of destruction and restoration. They are at once polar opposites, yet somehow there is some overlap. As is the nature of all dualistic relationships. Please keep the philosophical content coming, I love it so much.
That Flex Seal comment caught me off guard.
Love what you are doing. It really adds another layer of depth when I'm going through my playthrough and makes the immersion that much stronger
This series you've been putting up is awesome. It really makes me rethink how I play the game when I make a background.
“Restoration falls short”
Fortify restoration loop: “YOU WOT M8”
Seriously...wow. So many more layers to magicka. This is why I watch you. The stories, the information, the flow of concepts, and as always, the lore. Thank you.
Magick was awesome in Morrowind. I had a custom spell that paralyzed everything in a wide area while also applying insanely op amounts of damage. It was basically a city busting spell.
Still the best.... Another great vid. You guys have completely risen to the top of your field. No one is better.
(r.i.p. shoddycast)
What about the Forgotten schools of magic from Arena, Daggerfall, battlespire, Shadow key, dawnstar and Morrowind?
mysticism and that one beginning with a th?
I think it became the other classes of spells. Magic schools don't seem to have a set rule. It's confusing.
Great job as always, I love hearing about the lore and magic!
Really enjoyed watching your vids throughout this year.
Hope you have a Happy New Year, FudgeMuppet.
you should do videos on whether skyrim ordinator perks are worth it
Aaaaand now im gonna take a break from fo76 and roll and Dunmer pyro! Thank you Fudgemuppet, for the serendipitous vid 🙏
Keep these elder scrolls updates coming! Cant wait to see your content when the next elder scrolls launches
5:10 discovered your video's 2 days ago, been watching a few here & there..
But that joke, that right there mate... that made me subscribe x'D
keep it up!
Wow amazing video just subscribed yesterday this video made me want to replay Skyrim again lol I’m going to replay it on my switch this time.
Great vid man!
Another Great Video!
I enjoyed these videos regarding the schools of magic, and I'm disappointed they've all been covered... I hope you make a couple similar videos regarding alchemy and enchanting, styled in a lecture like these ones. And Possibly move onto other skills.
I think you guys should do a video suggesting role-playing ideas for the reason the sole survivor goes and joins the raiders at nuka world
hey fudgemyppet love your videos keep em coming , i just want to say i think you forgot acid the other element of destruction, its not in any of the newer games but it did show up prevalently in daggerfall.
This reminds me of Cade Skywalkers dark healing, where he pours the dark side into a wounded individual to heal them
Hey man great video. Really agreed with a lot of your points. One point of advice though when it comes to the books in the game if you see v. 4, v. 5 etc, the v means “volume” not “version”
Another excellent video that contains music from oblivion..life is good
You're telling me I caught a cold once while practicing my frost spells.
You're telling me a mudcrab fried this rice?!
really cool video!! i always wanted to know more about destrucction magic: can you control other elements aside from fire, frost and lightning? like earth, water, etc?
My favorite destruction magic move is the combo of a very powerful fortify destruction potion and lightning cloak. Clears a dungeon out almost immediately, turning everyone to ashes.
Fudge muppet has been a life saver on this long car trip
“A lot of damage versus Flex Seal”
I died
Thank you so much for your succulent lore videos, Fudgemuppet bros!
There's a book (Don't remember the title) that claims that you can "ride" lightning. Essentially a way to teleport
The intro was so metal. 🤘💀🤘
RESTORATION MAGES BE LIKE, "I am a walking can of Flex seal."
Explosion!!!!! *megumins voice*
As soon as i read the title i knew it was gonna be this dude narrating
I would love a series about the diseases of nirn
Great video. I'd say that the advancement of destruction as a school would be hindered primarily because its initial aspects are so useful and applicable to the needs of the mighty, powerful, and well monied.
“A lot of damage vs flex seal” you just earned yourself a fucking bell amigo
I would say that the schools of destruction and restoration are one and the same. You can use "destruction" magic to burn a log, in which process you would create new matter, a feat more usually associated with restoration. In turn, when using restoration, one could argue that to heal injuries, one would have to break down cells (destroy) to re-arrange them into healthy tissue. In both cases, one has played with the forces of life and death.
Now, in order to cure diseases we would usually employ the restoration school of magic. Wouldn't killing pathogens be considered a destructive process?
Can't wait for other College related videos. Especially Alteration, Illusion and Mysticism(my fav 3 - ok I like Resto too).
Destruction: how to make everyone light up like Christmas 🎄
The disease part of Distruction magick fascinates me. It may be not good for direct combat, but if you want to hurt people slowly and without confrontation is great. It can be very subtle.
STILL Restoration is my favourite category of magick.
You good sir earned that like for the flex seal joke
Who needs ward spells when you have an umbrella covered in flex seal
The flex seal joke earned you a like
I am addicted to your videos 😁😁😁
Can you make a video on the power of sudden CTDs?
Dwemer Build pls :3 I would love to role play a dwemer who is lost in modern Skyrim. His friends and family gone, his home deserted and ruined, overrun by corrupted snow elves.
I love the deep understanding and subtleties of Destruction. Destruction, paired with Restoration, can be thought of as deconstruction and reconstruction. But as one mage in the Bravil Mages Guild hall said "And lets face it. Blowing things up is ever so much fun!"
Destruction and alteration too, i cant help but think that a more scientifically minded person, thrust into the dream that is tamriel, would be capable of pulling some full metal alchemist level and beyond magics.
of course, then again... if they were thrust into the world of the elderscrolls and they KNEW it wasnt real but also that they were, would that mean that they just spawn in with CHIM?
@@canisarcani Personally my favorite school of magic is Mysticism. The manipulation of the very flow of magicka through the world and how it interacts with the physical.
And I suppose someone who achieves CHIM is not merely a player. But a modder, a programmer, as well.
Master Destruction Caster: You cannot defeat me!
Me: Console Command, Thanos Snap.
MDC: Wha-? ... -Doesn't feel so good-
4:43 this entire shot is beautiful
Destruction, Restoration, Enchantment and Conjuration are the main forms of magic I like to use in Skyrim. Along with sometimes using alteration.
Now that's a lot of damage!!
A lotta damage versus flex seal I'm dead
"alot a' damge vs flex tape"-FudgeMuppet
Hey Drew, whats the name of the track of music you used in this video. It must not be from Skyrim because I don't recognize it
0:26 The arcane enchanter table is basically a glowing Satanist sign. I just switch to porn if my mom walks in so she doesn't send me to church.
it actually represents the five elements from Neopagan beliefs, it originally and still stands for cosmic order, the satanist sign is upside-down.
@Mamoru Shiikuro why is it sad? Nothing in satanic religion is bad really. Do not harm children. Only kill when you need food. Dont make unwanted sexual advances. Dont stand in others way. I could go on. The Christian church and idiots are the only ones that think its about sacrifice and mass orgies.
Dakota Stricklin when people say satanist in a general usage, they're talking about people who legitimately worship Satan.
@@offbeat4772 ok? That has absolutely no difference than what I was talking about. The things I listed is how satan wants to be worshipped according to the satanic bible.
pentagrams are originally a Christian symbol, and thats not even a pentagram
This is an interesting duality.
Sorry for offtop, but where did you get this cool art you used for cover?
2:20 "Your destruction skill increased to 100"
Destruction and Restoration can make one great faster than ever.
1. Drain an attribute like, say, strength
2. Use restoration to maintain your ability to work out
3. When the spell fades, the gains remain
Whenever I play a magic-user (i.e. all the time), I try to level up Destruction and Restoration in tandem with each other. As you said, they're equal opposites. These two are the toughest skills to level without cheating, though, so I almost never succeed without abusing a cheat mod or console command.
Honestly, it seemed more like he talked about poison magic and disease more than he talked about destruction
One could use fire spells to cook a meal or heat a home, forge a tool or clear a field of weeds. And frost to make some ice cream during summer. Not so destructive anymore.
Hey fudgemuppit I have a thought about elder scroll VI the plot will probably be in my opinion something to do with bringing back the dwemmer. That is because hammer fell has dwemmer ruins plus no one knows what happened under red mountain so they could still be out there somewhere possibly biding their time. Remember the line in the dragon born prophecy "when the brass tower walks and time is reshaped..." The brass tower never got the chance to walk so that has not happened yet. Please do a video on this topic.
The plage spells you showed are part of the apocalypse magic or the ordinator perk mod and belong to the restoration tree.
“A lot of damage and flex seal....
The spell Drew speaks about in the begining sounds a bit like purple haze (the stand)
Can you guys please add enchantment and alchemy videos to this amazing series?
I like the idea of a Star Mage, a mage seeking your harness the power of aetherius via directly manipulating the energy from stars directly. That would be a top tier caster on the level of many Archmages from various magical orders. It might even be that one must be on such a level to pursue Star Magic to begin with. Anyone else wanna fight someone like that?
