Playing a Dunmer makes the Planes of Oblivion a lot easier. My game plan is to do the Main Quest, Fighter's Guild, Mage's Guild, and Knights of the Nine questlines more or less simultaneously, though I want to finish Knights of the Nine first.Īlso, I have decided to close every Oblivion Gate I encounter immediately. Also, the character has maxed out Alchemy (but who hasn't?). The character is a Dunmer, with sword and shield as primary weapons and Destruction and Conjuration as major backups.
Now I am giving it another go - with Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul (for avoiding the 'level trap') and nGCD (for smoother leveling and attribute increases) as major mods (also an 'increase weight limit' mod, because I don't want to seek out shopkeepers every time I've looted a dungeon).
I played Oblivion a bit last year, but never finished the main quest.
