Skyrim - 9 Hidden Perk Effects

Knew about all of these except the last one. Colette was right, holy shit. Restoration IS a perfectly valid school of magic.

>They're not in any order>very interesting especially the final one

I was disappointed that he didn't mention the HUGE alchemy benefit to the merchant perk. There are some very rare alchemy ingredients you cannot ever buy from an alchemy vendor unless you have the merchant perk.

Aspect of terror (illusion perk) also increases all fire damage by 10, meaning that the spell "flames" that normally does 8 dmg, now does 18.

aaah... the good ol oblivion soundtrack <3 I wish that Bethesda would make a remastered version of The elder scrolls oblivion, like skyrim but with the oblivion world, quests, story, npcs, sounds, voices etc.

Skyrim is such an amazing game, 800 hours in and yet there's still shit I had no idea of. Thanks for the vid man!

damn that Oblivion music was nostalgic.

Bethesda should really work on their descriptions for perks.

Watching your videos before playing always makes it a better time. Thanks and best wishes.

UPDATE ABOUT NECROMAGE FOR NEWBIES: YOU MUST BE A VAMPIRE BEFOR YOU GET NECROMAGE OR IT WILL NOT WORK

Does Augmented flames perk work for Dawnbreaker?

So Augmented Perks are the best ingameThanks

Pls Bethesda, don't patch any of this

Atronach is pretty broken for conjurers. Sometimes it takes 3-4 casts before you can summon something.

Plays Skyrim, has Oblivion soundtrack in background.Awesome!

I have 2500+ hours in skyrim but even i didnt know the Cricle of protection one. Now i need to make a stand-ins still mage build to try it out. Thnx guys!

Totally unrelated but a lot of people don't know about the npcs relaxing in the hot springs. I never leave them alive lol

The Aspect of Terror perk actually increases Fire Damage by 10-15 points depending on whether or not you took both ranks of Augmented Flames first. Since it's a flat bonus, it really shines on lower level spells like Flames which can reach up to 27 damage per second without dual-casting.

I hate it when spell absorb stops you from summoning atronachs though

Fun fact; the elemental enchantments (and I think literally all weapon enchantments) you put on weapons are also affected by the enchantment Fortify Destruction which decreases destruction magic usage. Should you use alchemy to get Fortify Destruction 100%, your offensive enchants won't drain (that includes staves).

Impact is stupidly OP. Nothing like stunlocking Alduin until he keels over.

"They're not in any order (...) especially the final one"

I love your videos man, I found you from Camel. You guys are awesome.

I love how he's playing king and country from oblivion in the background.

One question: who uses vanilla perks on pcs?

im an atronach.....i can absorb your spells ;-)

Unfortunately having high magic absorption means you can't cast conjugation spells. All your summons are just absorbed by the player character

EDIT:Alright after some deep thoughts and reading I will apologize for being rude, I am feeling shitty in general. Have a nice day/night.

Kudos for using the Oblivion soundtrack throughout! I miss that game.

3:29 "Casted" is not a word! I don't normally nitpick grammar in videos, but that one always drives me up a wall.

Thanks for making these videos, even though I know a shit ton about Skyrim they're still so entertaining. You guys are amazing, Scott, Michael <3

1:22 From hearing your 'thumb'.... THU'UM

Do you think he knows the alteration spell is altering things lol. Aaalteration.

One other thing you need to know about the Necromage perk is that this little hidden perk was fixed in the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch mod. If you are using USSEP you will have to circumvent this fix with another mod that restores the Necromage perk back to vanilla.

Very helpful and informing 👍 I did not know any of these.

The first vid I ever saw by you two was the Raider/Melee Build I saw it thinking it was a good guide on how to run a melee character then I loved what I saw and watched everything and subbed so what I'm trying to say is I love your guys work it really good this came to mind when I went back and watched that vid

Circle of Protection + Lightning Storm

I love seeing the channel now, i was there when it was only skyrim builds, and then came the awesome lets plays... aahh, its like watching a child grow, ya know? Keep going bros, you are awesome :D

Dame I thought I was expecting something I didn't know about, apparently I know about all the things you were talking about.I'm a person that experimented with the mage build and studied hard without researching through the internet. I guess it paid off hahaha.

Scott, Michael just wanna say that I love your vids and also would like to recommend a character aesthetic, Full Noridic carved armor except the helmet and for the helmet the helm of Yngol it looks sick in my opinion

I'm sleeping with my accountant

That last one about the circle of protection is super cool and i really wish i'd known about it when i made my paladin, It's super thematic for any mage build really. Everyone rips on skyrim for its lack of complexity but these little interactions really make it up and make the game special.Excellent vid

Heh. I always thought impact staggered dragons even without the augmented perks, because I usually go for that damage boost first. Whattaya know, you learn something every day :P

This is a random question, but what happened to Sterile Studios/DeathMatch Gaming? Their Skyrim videos were absolutely hilarious.

Didn't know about at least half of these. Very cool!

Quick lets play oblivion music in this skyrim video!

I use Perkus Maximus. Any chance of you doing a video explaining the hidden perk effects of this mod?

I was hoping to finally see the illusion tree, aspect of terror perk fire damage increase mentioned as few people know of it but alas it has been overlooked once again, ho hum, oh well maybe some other totally appropriate video might have it.

Isn't that Oblivion music?

"Increases elemental shout powers?" * equips frost breath and ice storm. You've got the touch starts playing *

Your channel is very very good in quality. No trolling here.

And drawing a bow lets you move faster when overweight, and there are perks that make you move even faster in the archery tree

Using slow time makes me feel like Quicksilver. It feels amazing.

they are not in any order.... especially the final one. hahaha

This is cool, I've played over 600 hours on PC but I never knew any of this

Another one: Aspect of Terror boosts fire spells by a flat 15 damage. Very effective on Flames and Ignite.

Excellent video. Love the ones like this.

I absolutely love the work you do on this chanel I have changed from noob to someone who actually knows what to do in the game so I would like to say thank you

Very cool, I didn't know a couple of these; sadly, the unofficial patch kills the necromage thing (there's a fix for that "fix", thankfully). When you mentioned the "augmented" destruction perks, you probably should've mentioned that, when you have "intense flames" and the "aspect of terror" illusion perk, fire spells deal more damage, since they're also fear spells getting boosted.EDIT~ D'oh, I forgot.... If you have both "augmented flames" ranks BEFORE you get aspect of terror, the damage boost is higher. You have to do it before, though

Wow some of these affects makes me wonder why they didn't put that in the description

Why does his skyrim look better than mine....

Not in any order, but their all very interesting, especially the final one... What?

The first one is so hillarious and dumb, a shout is like a Roar, the dragonborn roars stubitly loud and makes some sort of power, like fire or whatever, to silence that wouldent really make much sense :b

Shadow warrior master race

I wonder how many of these apply to Ordinator perks, if any at all.

I can't be the only person who wants an Elder Scrolls Real Time Strategy game.fact?

My enchanted weapons are glitched they don't need to be recharged with any soul gem and I still get to use the enchantments on them.
