Fyi the court mages don't tend to sell expert and master level spells. To get Conjure Dremora Lord, you'd need to talk to the Conjuration Teacher in the Mage College.
Funny thing about Legendary Conjuration only is that it's actually the easiest way to play Legendary as summons aka NPC's don't adhere to the games balance modifiers so they always take and deal 1x damage regardless of game difficulty. Game difficulty modifiers in Skyrim only apply to the player.
@@bronysaiyan5236 bro the bound bow can be purchased from vendors.. even without the patch, only comes available earliest I think is 17 u can buy it from the markarth mage/vendor
Conjuration and Illusion are actually the best schools of magic for legendary difficulty because the damage of NPCs and summons are not scaled down in that mode.
The best soul trap body is literally in Whiterun btw. If you look under the bridge that leads to Dragonsreach, in the water is a skeleton. Drag him to the stairs and you have a soul trap body immediately after you've bought the spell!
The hardest skill to level up in skyrim is restoration, but once you gte necromage perk you are on the path to godhood as a vampire. The only challenge that couldn't complete to finish up in Skyrim was to use only reverse pickpocketing to finish up your enemies.
reverse-pickpocketing to kill is pretty fun if you get into the dark brotherhood. Babette sells chokeberries often, which combined with an apple in a cooking pot makes for a lingering poison that deals 4 damage per second and lasts for a whole minute
I'm currently playing a conjuration build. I did the soul trap hack and got 2 OP Atronachs at the same time! but how I do it is I summon my atronachs then I switch my spells to bound sword and a destruction spell that's associated with whatever atronach I have summoned at that time. It's been a pain in the ass but it's been fun so far. I have been ACTIVELY avoiding the bound bow because I JUST got done with a stealth archer and don't wanna get dragged down again lol
That is a legendry random encounter, seeing the Grey Beards get all Gen x on some fools ass is quite a thing to behold. I can see a visit to Skyrim imminent...iv not played for years, Sanguines Rose i normally get that's handy for conjuration for any build.
ah yes, my favorite of all the sneak/archer alternatives. Every single run of my after a certain point became a high level conjuration battle mage lol, so much fun to be had with bound weapons
This was a great video, thoroughly entertaining the whole way through and made me want to start a new play through. Side note: your game looks incredible. Puts my mod order to shame lol
So if you grab one of the brooms in the Keep when you start the game, then grab a orichalcum ore or ingot , some void salts, and a grand soul gem, you can use the Atronach forge and make yourself a Summon Lightning Atronach Staff at level one. There is a orichalcum ingot in the Forge room, there are void salts in the Whiterun alchemists shop, or you can make some with a amethyst gem + salt pile + a small soul gem in the Forge as well. As for the Grand Soul Gem, the Necromancer Home in Anniversary Esituon has a few, or you can steal some from the Kahjit Caravans.
The greybeards: We never result to voilence for we are to powerfull and would end up killing them. Also the greybears when someone comes uninvited to their tea-party:
Some tips: - If you get a mod by the same author as the Unofficial Patch, Cutting Room Floor, you can get a cut content spell in the Conjuration School called Spectral Arrow that will heavily stun anyone hit by it. You'll get it for finishing the quest at Treva's Watch. - You may not enjoy it, or at least not at first, but the glass cannon playstyle of a mage in robes can be effective while still being challenging, even on Adept, the difficulty where the player and NPCs give and take the same amounts of damage since...: 1. You were focusing on upgrading your magicka like my friend and I have as clothing mages. 2. You'll get some decent enchantments for a mage from being gifted robes by the mages' college, buying them, and finding them in loot. 3. You won't be weighed down by armor, so you'll move faster than armored foes and slower creatures, allowing you to more effectively dodge projectiles, orbit around melee enemies, run away like a little you know what, and you'll make very little noise while sneaking. - The two men in the beginning area of the Ratway can be persuaded to not attack you while either the Unoffical Patch or Cutting Room Floor is installed. I forget which.
So here's something fun- there's a 'hidden' Novice (well, 'special' difficulty) Conjuration spell in the game. It's in the game files, but there aren't any spellbooks for it, so you can never learn it- it's called Spectral Arrow. Lets you just shoot off a conjured projectile that staggers the target, and it's AWESOME. Was apparently meant to be a quest reward, then got replaced.
"It's the only way to get further in the questline." I mean *technically* you can hunt down Orchendor and get yourself Spellbreaker which while blocking will register with Tolfdir as casting a ward spell.
When you get to the two at the bottom of Alftand, you can let Umana and Sulla duke it out. Then you only have to fight one of them and they're mostly dead.
Talk to the Cat folks. Outside of skyrim. With special edition of skyrim. The saints and seducers side quest. Finish is and you have 4 verry powful people you can summon
Cat Folks? Khajiit does not take kindly to such words, yes? 'Cat Folk' is no term for the respectful, no. Khajiit have honor, pride, and stories woven in moonsugar and starlight. To use such a name as a slur shows only ignorance, yes? Better to speak with kindness, or Khajiit might forget their gentle nature.
The best conjuration spell isn't a spell it's a once a day rune stone. Just get the helmet that allows you to use an additional runestone then simply take off and put on the helmet and you can skip the once a day requirement. The runestone is the one that allows you to summon undead. It has no limit on how many you can summon so using this method you can make an army to fight for you
Long time since I played Skyrim, but from what I remember resummoning your helpers in combat gave pretty good exp gains to conjuration. Think I did a conjuration run once that spent the early game mainly just sending the fire one in as a homing grenade while I hid around a corner
I think the shouts that are very closely related to conjuration would be okay, drain vitality, soul tear, and on rare occasions, Summon Durnehviir, but regular ones would be disqualified outside of mandatory use
summon ice atronach in a closed space, hit him with bound sword and go somewhere he cant reach you(do it before getting the perk that banishes him) you hit him once to start combat, and then summon and sheathe the sword multiple times
I know it would go against your conjunction only challenge, but how I found the fastest way to level up my conjunction since the patch was to learn the calm spell. Find lone enemy (I used a mud crab), use soul trap, then calm, wait 1 hour, repeat.
Just so you konw the spell spell ward isn't the only way to progress the college quest. You can go and grab the shield spellbreaker and that works as well.
Fun fact about the two guys in the Ratway: If your speech skill is high enough, you can persuade or intimidate them to let you pass, avoiding the fight all together.
I'm on an old ps4 in 2024 (I know, lame. Well, it is what it is for now), the exploit still works. Got level 100 Conjuration in half an hour. Just keep casting it on 1 and the same corpse over and over, run out of magicka, -wait- an hour and repeat. You will level up pretty fast
You can use soul trap on your horse (1000 gold), get 100 in 18-20 mins, somehow find 2000 gold buy lord dremora spell and 2 of them will beat the game easily. Or you can pick hight elf(much better for this run couse have +50 mana for free, tallest and fastest race in the game, has great talent, you can use this talent to lvl up conjuration, in combat take sword spell, cast it, press r, cast again, it will lvl up skill like soul trap but you don't need to buy horse and you have talent for mana)
Im on my first run of skyrim ever, im basically doing this. Tons of fun, always loved using summoning in games (terraria for example) and always forget that shouts exist
[6:47] Actually, the ward created by blocking with the Spellbreaker shield will successfully continue the quest. [7:05] Firing with a staff or shouting at the wall will also break it
You could have gone to Whiterun, taken the carriage to Markarth, stolen the greater soul gem from the back right room in Nepo's house, gone to the College, grabbed the Void Salts from the Hall of Attainment, entered the Midden, dropped down and killed the Draugr, grabbed the broom and Orichalcum Ingot, then put the Void Salts, Broom, Greater Soul Gem, and Orichalcum Ingot into the Atronach Forge and gotten a (somewhat) free Staff of Conjure Storm Atronach... then used it to defeat the Frost Worm on the way out.
This is so sad cause Conjuration only in Oblivion is one of the strongest builds in the game. Esp if you stay at lvl 1 and get the Lich summon. The Lich is basically an unkillable god at lvl one, 1 shotting almost all enemies
Honestly my first build I beated the game with. My cousin told my to rest and keep using soultrap on dead stuff. Maxed conjuration and used 2 dremoras to tank for me while I used shouts.
You can get the Summon Dremora spell after reaching lvl 90 on conjuring and talking to the conjuration teacher in winterhold about the next level to conjuration
One of my favorite playstyles is Illusion + Conjuration with a dash of sneak. I hide in the shadows, cast frenzy spells on the enemies, forcing friends and lovers to kill each other, then when one dies, I bring them back and force them to kill their friends who are weak from the previous battle. I feel it is so EVIL.
For the winter hold lesson of using a ward if you just kill someone during the lesson then wait 24 hours you can actually skip the lesson entirely and the quest progresses Instead of you using flames you can have a follower do it when you make them attack you and it will progress that as well. Technically you could have done all of that without using anything but conjugation. I know why you didn’t because it absolutely sucks and takes forever but if you did know you could skip those doing that then I would have been elated. You can also use a specific sword to advance stuff in the quests to advance it without using magic but it would defeat the purpose since you use a sword to advance it I respect it fully. Just woulda been awesome for you to mention the way to do it without “cheating” in reality it is just you did it at your own discretion without wasting hours of your life
Yeah and, tbh, I didn't even know of those ways to skip it haha. I appreciate the advice and feedback! On a side note, I did try to skip the flames part by summoning a fire atronach at the door (i hoped the aoe fire damage would do something... it didn't)
Should give this a try with something like ordinator if you want to see what conjuration should have been like, if you can also get undeath on backdated skyrim you're set
I've been thinking of including Ordinator in a run, but for the most part I want the game to be vanilla gameplay wise so everyone can replicate what I'm doing. I'll definitely include it if I want to do a specialised build that's underdeveloped in the vanilla game though :)
I know you can use your own horse to grind the soul trap but I didn't knew that so instead I went to a far away farm where there are no guards which is "barley dark farm" and just spam soul trap on the chickens there until I've reached 100 on conjuration.
348 comments and idk if it was said, but spellbreaker from peyrites daedric quest DOES work for the college intro at 6:50. Some people mentioned other ways of skipping it, but spellbreaker does work if you want to actually do the quest without skipping that part.
the 2nd way to power level conjuration is to use summon flame atronach and beat it to death with a bound weapon. dunno how viable that is on legendary but now you know... even though it's too late :)
Conjugation is the easiest way to defeat Skyrim. I just go into a dungeon, drop a summon into a room from outside to trigger the enemies, then keep resummoning them until the enemies are dead. Normally I just walk through dungeons casually collecting treasure as the summons do the work, but if I get bored I summon two swords and take out the enemies from behind as they fight my summon. I never even use shouts.
Hey there, Zeke, I am boon23 and just another fellow Skyrim content creator on youtube. What a nice video you have made there. Great challenge, good audio and image quality and really well edited. You know what you are doing. Your video has heavily inspired me to try this challenge for myself, but with different rules: I want to try to play it "conjuration only" meaning I want to play the game and only level up in conjuration and nothing else on legendary survival difficulty playing a Breton just like you did. Thank you so much for the great video and the inspiration. Of course I subscribed to your channel and of course your video will be mentioned with the according link. Keep up the great work that you do. 🤩
@@ZekeWaters_ thank you, especially for not deleting my comment. You're a good sport. So many youtubers feel threatened by others, see only competition, but truth be told, together we make the world a richer place.
Conjuration is the easiest way to play the game. You can just keep summoning Storm Atronachs till everyone is dead. I would start with a high elf, not a Breton you can just run all the way to Whiterun and buy a flame atronach spell from Farengar.
Fyi the court mages don't tend to sell expert and master level spells. To get Conjure Dremora Lord, you'd need to talk to the Conjuration Teacher in the Mage College.
@@insertclevernamehere1186 I didn’t include it in the footage, but I did go to Phinis to check if he had it :)
@@ZekeWaters_ Were you at level 65 Conjuration or higher? He won't stock Expert spells until you are.
He stocks expert at 65, and master at 90 right?
@@Frozen_Hope well, you have to do the Master Spell quest to unlock the master spells, but yes.
@@insertclevernamehere1186 True, I was convinced for a long time they unlocked at level 100, but learning it was 90 really opened some possibilities
Funny thing about Legendary Conjuration only is that it's actually the easiest way to play Legendary as summons aka NPC's don't adhere to the games balance modifiers so they always take and deal 1x damage regardless of game difficulty.
Game difficulty modifiers in Skyrim only apply to the player.
in all Elder Scrolls games even
Yea. I only play legendary and Conjuration is basically a needed to progress
Yeah it's broken, legendary is the only way to make conjuration feel good
Nobody tell him that he could have grinded soul trap on a horse he owned
Oh... My... Fucking... God
soul trapping thed horse wouldnt have worked, he said he is using the unofficial patch. it fixes most exploits... if not all of them
@@obliviousthunder Horse spell grinding is one of the few things that does work after installing unofficial patch
@@obliviousthunderskill issue, they merely changed how to do it; the underlying issues were never properly fixed
Shhhhhh
There's a Bound Bow book you can grab in Fort Amol. Super good early grab
And a great start to your. (Stealth archer) conjuration build.
Very good to know!
Without the unofficial patch that was the only way to get it too lol. Went hundreds of hours on ps3 not knowing a bound bow ever existed
@@bronysaiyan5236 bro the bound bow can be purchased from vendors.. even without the patch, only comes available earliest I think is 17 u can buy it from the markarth mage/vendor
Love how the trap that made your life so much easier in this run was the very same thing that killed Faendal like 5 times in the next
Literally 😭
for the college of winterhold induction, you can actually kill one of the people in the room to skip the ward tutorial
I guess you don’t have to go to school if you have OSS
Yeah but the summons probably wouldn't touch it until you injured them could be done if you used beast or vampire lord tho
Ah yes, I too kill my fellow classmates to skip my class
So it's the college of america then.
This is actually how I passed Econ-205.
That wolf on legendary survival is so clutch. Breton is clutch with the magical resistance to boot
12:57 the timing between saying "I'm a regular old hero" and immediately picking her pockets after has me in stitches
That’s exactly what I was about to say
that river being missing is definitly a water mod problem
Conjuration and Illusion are actually the best schools of magic for legendary difficulty because the damage of NPCs and summons are not scaled down in that mode.
This video was crazy entertaining and made me want to play Skyrim again for the first time in 8 years. You earned yourself a new subscriber
The best soul trap body is literally in Whiterun btw. If you look under the bridge that leads to Dragonsreach, in the water is a skeleton. Drag him to the stairs and you have a soul trap body immediately after you've bought the spell!
You can use Spellbreaker's ward to complete the first lesson mission without using a spell ward
You can. But that's a shield, not conjuration

Setting conjuration as a challenge is like picking a fight with a toddler while youre wielding Mjolnir
hail summoner, conjure me up a warm bed, would you?
This was a great video, thoroughly entertaining the whole way through and made me want to start a new play through.
Side note: your game looks incredible. Puts my mod order to shame lol

Bro blamed Bethesda for his inability to patch water seam issues
I don't usually say this, but your visual mods look really cool. Also, great video bro
good to see ur growth zeke good to see skyrim too
Conjuration is my favorite spell tree. So good for combat and just generally fun. Atronachs and bound weapons are great
Unlimited summons is a must in all my op vampire lord playgrounds

Conjuration is the most overpowered thing in the game. You can keep summoning until any enemy is just worn out.
Im glad that people still playing skyrim
So here's something fun- there's a 'hidden' Novice (well, 'special' difficulty) Conjuration spell in the game.

If you have the AE, I recommend Undying Ghost from a bench near the Ritual Stone. That dude rocks at low levels.
I think the shouts that are very closely related to conjuration would be okay, drain vitality, soul tear, and on rare occasions, Summon Durnehviir, but regular ones would be disqualified outside of mandatory use
Nice concise enjoyable video. subbed!
11:56 Pure Chad moment! That Atronach going WWE on a Dragon with shear fucking will!

I have revenge of the enemies installed and a bunch of other difficulty mods so the Sarthal boss is an absolute beast.
Conjuration is one of the easy magic school to level up on Skyrim and one of the best to use in legendary cuz the sumons are op Af

if you have enough gold you can buy a horse to use soul trap on, if you have the unofficial patch installed
I'm on an old ps4 in 2024 (I know, lame. Well, it is what it is for now), the exploit still works. Got level 100 Conjuration in half an hour. Just keep casting it on 1 and the same corpse over and over, run out of magicka, -wait- an hour and repeat. You will level up pretty fast
In regards to the dragon in Blackreach, if you shouted and it hit that lantern in the center, it summons him.
You can use soul trap on your horse (1000 gold), get 100 in 18-20 mins, somehow find 2000 gold buy lord dremora spell and 2 of them will beat the game easily. Or you can pick hight elf(much better for this run couse have +50 mana for free, tallest and fastest race in the game, has great talent, you can use this talent to lvl up conjuration, in combat take sword spell, cast it, press r, cast again, it will lvl up skill like soul trap but you don't need to buy horse and you have talent for mana)
Fun fact summon Durnehviir is technically conjuration aka completely allowed in this run
Hey, don't sleep on Lesser Ward. It may not look like much, but it can tank a full dragon breath attack.
Im on my first run of skyrim ever, im basically doing this. Tons of fun, always loved using summoning in games (terraria for example) and always forget that shouts exist
Playing Skyrim together now with conjuration spells it's fun.
You can actually implode the Saarthal tunnel wall with any projectile spell: including Soul Trap
Or a staff, scroll, or shout.
I didn’t even realise, I thought because it was orange you would need a fire spell just like in Labyrinthian
[6:47] Actually, the ward created by blocking with the Spellbreaker shield will successfully continue the quest.

RUclips algorithm thinks I wanna watch a bunch of elder scrolls content.theyre right.nice video!
Hail and well met. Just to let you know, if you cast a Conjuration spell near (in safe spot) an enemy it will increase.
Using a ward spell is not the only way to progress. Same can be achieved with the Spellbreaker shield
For the winter hold lesson of using a ward if you just kill someone during the lesson then wait 24 hours you can actually skip the lesson entirely and the quest progresses
Instead of you using flames you can have a follower do it when you make them attack you and it will progress that as well.
Technically you could have done all of that without using anything but conjugation.
I know why you didn’t because it absolutely sucks and takes forever but if you did know you could skip those doing that then I would have been elated.

You had a dark elf trapped in a spider web and you didn't just spam soul trap on him? Missed opportunity there.
"Skyrim, but my big brother plays for me"
Would help if I had a big brother lol
Idk if many know this but I usually kill a rabbit and just spam soul trap on its corpse and that helps lvl up conjuration skills pretty quick
the 2nd way to power level conjuration is to use summon flame atronach and beat it to death with a bound weapon. dunno how viable that is on legendary but now you know... even though it's too late :)
You can also get bound bow at fort amol and get a bound dadric bow early in and make a spectral stealth archer

Normally I just walk through dungeons casually collecting treasure as the summons do the work, but if I get bored I summon two swords and take out the enemies from behind as they fight my summon. I never even use shouts.
7:07 you don't need to use flames on the wall, a shout or any spell that does contact should work
*cough* Soul Trap
Was the original joke "splash splash I was summoning trash?"
That was the only thing I could think of that would fit and rhyme.
@@RealPlasmat Something like that, my brain has too much ADHD running rampant through it to know what the hell I was thinking haha
You have a great day too sir! Thanks for the entertaining video
Hey there, Zeke, I am boon23 and just another fellow Skyrim content creator on youtube. What a nice video you have made there. Great challenge, good audio and image quality and really well edited. You know what you are doing. Your video has heavily inspired me to try this challenge for myself, but with different rules: I want to try to play it "conjuration only" meaning I want to play the game and only level up in conjuration and nothing else on legendary survival difficulty playing a Breton just like you did. Thank you so much for the great video and the inspiration. Of course I subscribed to your channel and of course your video will be mentioned with the according link. Keep up the great work that you do. 🤩
I'm glad I inspired you!! Go for it, that challenge sounds like a lot of fun. Thank you for the kind words :)
@@ZekeWaters_ thank you, especially for not deleting my comment. You're a good sport. So many youtubers feel threatened by others, see only competition, but truth be told, together we make the world a richer place.
Shocked that no one that does the conjuration only run never you the smith enchantment dead thrall armor
Two words: "Flaming Familiar." That is all. 🔥🐺
Conjuration is the easiest way to play the game. You can just keep summoning Storm Atronachs till everyone is dead. I would start with a high elf, not a Breton you can just run all the way to Whiterun and buy a flame atronach spell from Farengar.
One never "gets finished" with Skyrim 👨🏾💻
It's a good thing I used the glitch before it got patched
Thinking I might give this game a try
well you can use Soul Trap on your own Summoned Minions and Companions for leveling up
