I saw Run from Helgen to become a vampire. (Likely to take advantage of the Restoration perk to increase magic effects on vampires, but I could be wrong.) Alchemy and enchanting style loop, to hyper-boost the effect of alchemy and enchanting, absolutely crushing through XP gains. Prestige rank Block, to keep getting level xp, by getting massive xp to Block. Eventually, Smith God's own personal axe and use the literal touch of death to merc the Ebony Warrior. Turn around and show the guy he was blocking that attempting to walk away was mercy, not fear, by killing him expeditiously. I know I missed finer details, but did I catch the broad strokes?
@@CaitiffFTWthe reason i became a vampire is because the superstacking glitch only works with certain combinations of races/items. khajiit vampire (which the game considers a different race from khajiit) can superstack with gold rings, which is why i grab the gold ingots
"wtf is going on" well i'll tell you most skyrim speedruns are played as high elf, but i need to play as a khajiit and become a vampire because khajiit vampire (which the game considers a different race from khajiit) is able to do superstacking with gold rings, which only works with a few specific race/item combinations. superstacking is when i click the enchanted gold ring repeatedly and the fortify alchemy bonus keeps adding up. here's a very cool explanation: ruclips.net/video/e-DeXia4LL8/видео.html at the very beginning i do infinite sprint. hold sprint/quicksave/release sprint key/quickload in succession locks you into the sprint animation, and allows jumping while sprinting. also, whenever i go through a door or fast travel, i can quicksave and quickload right after the loading screen to cause the fadein animation to skip. quicksave/quickloading can also be used to skip npc dialogue like in most skyrim speedruns, i instantly escape helgen to go to a cave exit where i can perform a loadwarp that allows me to escape with my hands unbound. unlike in most skyrim speedruns, however, i don't go to the helgen keep exit and instead go to haemar's shame, because i can become a vampire there. loadwarping is the thing i'm doing when i open the menu while going into the cave, it allows me to load the save where my hands are unbound, while going through the cave, so that i become the character with unbound hands but i'm inside the cave then i do a horse tilt to fly past windhelm, to an island with gold ingots that i need to make the gold rings in the windhelm market, i do the merchant glitch to sell the merchant's own inventory to themselves, which gives me all the gold i need, and if they don't have an item i need, i can quicksave then attack them and quickload to reset their inventory. when i enchant a gold ring with fortify alchemy, then i can equip an unenchanted gold ring and then repeatedly press the enchanted gold ring. because the gold ring is bugged with khajiit vampires, the game *tries* to equip it, but can't, but i get the fortify alchemy bonus anyway, and it stacks every time i equip it but this alone isn't fast enough to get sufficiently powerful effects, so i speed it up with intermittent fortify resto potions once i can make a super fortify smithing potion, i can give a super smithed weapon to stenvar (and myself), drink a super fortify health potion so that i actually survive his attacks, and let his superpowered attacks level my block and heavy armor skills from 15 to 100 instantly i'll stream attempts to get sub-10 soon, follow twitch.tv/nucular_sr
I came to the comments to try to understand a couple things I didn't know and find this explanation making you truly a Jarl among karl's. Congratulations on the achievement and thanks for being amazing.
The last few seconds I was like “how is he gonna get all the way to the ebony warrior in these 5 seconds and kill him”? Then the dude just pops out from right around that building lol
Its proof that nothing is sped up, its easy to just put it on afterwards but not many people who put in the time to speed run would fake it thats next level sad
"omg he uses bugs this run sucks!" Brother do you want to watch a guy do the Alteration exploit for 20 minutes just to 1 shot him in the same way? This is way more interesting
Someone did the glitchless version and it was about 1 hour and 15 minutes and 20 minutes was them looking at a bed spamming muffle and 20 minutes was them spamming the illusion master spells
Doesn’t the destruction exploit work a little better? All you gotta do is get Unbounded Storms, go to a corner of the map, activate the spell, open the map, travel to the other side and you go straight from 15 to 90-100 instantly.
I like to imagine that all the NPC's in Helgen including Alduin just stopped everything they were doing and just stare at the dragonborn going ballistic.
Jesus, the things a community can do to help make such an impressive speedrun. I know just enough glitches to kind of understand what’s going on, but to use all of them in incredibly creative and precise ways is on a whole other level. Great run dude, can’t wait to see more!
You know the part I liked? When they said cock and intercourse 😂😂😂 that was amazing. So many times too! 🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭 It was just as funny every single time.😭🤣💪🤣😭💪😂😂🤣😭💪🤣😭💪
Dude do you not know the khajit cock explosion bug? It gives you a 0.3% chance to make a mudcrab sing Ragnar the red with every time you drink a potion of minor diarrhoea, it’s crucial to the run
@@GabeDuncan Its a sub sfx from the twitch VOD I think. It's a line from the Fallout TV show because of how god awfully dogshit it was except for the parts with Walton Goggins.
Absolutely mind-boggling. Ive been aware of a lot of these things seperately as exploits and glitches; but to link them all this way is just genius. Never watched a skyrim speedrun before this so not sure how standard they are, G-est of G's.
I remember doing everything in the game possible, I was so sad because I wanted so much more after becoming That strong, then I went to whiterun and he was there waiting for me, the perfect way to close the game
I cheesed this fight, and I bet anyone with level 40 destruction can do the same thing. The impact perk staggers most enemies with dual casting, so I just stun locked the EW before he could swing his sword. A cheap win, but a win.
I've been playing Skyrim over having a normal social life since it game out and have done some questionable things in the game to my advantage but this hurt my brain and I love it. Editing this comment after finishing the video and bravo is all I can say rant I'm at a lose for words.
Honest question. Are u actually somehow crazy? I can understand the repetitiveness involved in speedrunning..., BUT WHY THE F ARE U USING THE SAME LINE FROM FALLOUT TV SHOW AGAIN AND AGAIN? I needed to lower the volume of the video because i wanted to see your 11:47 time and I was going nuts. lol ffs
I used to casually run skyrim any% like 4 years ago and seeing these newer strats is so cool. Talking with the guard while sharpening the weapons is an awesome optimisation. Horse tilts are torture fr, but I feel like with better luck on those you'd save a fair bit of time with that alone. Saw a comment saying you were aiming for sub 10 and I think that seems doable with your strats. This run is great and best of luck achieving that goal!
Sorry if you do get this part, or don’t care to know, but he used what’s known as the fortify restoration loop to create an incredibly strong potion to fortify smithing. That potion is how he enhanced those steel weapons to near 400 damage. He also made a fortify health potion when using the fortify restoration loop. That potion gave him the health to absorb hits from the steel weapons he just improved. He gave one of those weapons to his follower, angered his follower, and blocked his blows to near instantly level up his skills to 100. He then reset the level 100 skills so he could level them up again and get all the experience he just got, again.
I thought about that, but would be slower for two reasons: * When wearing both light and heavy armor, when you get hit, either one skill or the other will get raised, and it’s random. It’s not even 50/50, it’s in proportion to how much each contributes to your armor rating. So whichever contributes less to your armor rating, it may take a large number of hits before that skill randomly gets raised to 100. * Light armor is far away in the skill tree from block and heavy armor, which are conveniently right next to each other, so that would take a lot of scrolling
