You can also read the scrolls like they're books. They're all written in Daedric, and most of them just read "woe upon you". A few are different: the scrolls that heal Blight on yourself and others actually sound like a prayer, the Scroll of Icarian Flight reads "from the earth to the aether and back", the Scroll of the Winter Guest oft-used in this video reads "greed eventually traps us all" and the Scroll of Fiercely Roasting reads "nine-fold woes and weaknesses upon you heaten servants of darkness". Most notable is the Scroll of Elemental Burst: Fire which contains the same text as a Morag Tong writ of execution two times in a row.

"I am a God. How can you kill a God? - "Uh, by like, buying some stuff off the shelf from the store"

I've never felt more immersed in a game than the time the Telvanni sent me to suppress a slave uprising. As I was flying to the mine they were occupying, I thought to myself, "I did just receive a nice firestorm scroll as payment from my last mission. I'd be shame not to test it out." So I walked in and told them to obey their masters or die. They chose the later. Only one survived the spell. He didn't survive my spiderbite ring.

Years ago, I used to frequent a skyrim server that people would post builds to. One build that stood out was a "librarian". A caster that relied entirely on artifacts, scrolls, staffs, and speech. Fun times.

Drain health is a really good way to finish off damaged enemies. When you were lamenting how it felt like a waste to use another scroll to finish off an opponent who didn't have much health left, yeah, that's what Drain Health is useful for. If it deals more damage than they have health remaining, it's insta-death.

I won't lie, I laughed pretty hard at JBN's misunderstanding of how Drain Health works. Not mocking him, I was the exact same way when I first played Morrowind myself like twenty years ago (oh god...). Drain Health is useless for anything besides crafting your own 'instant death' spell by draining like 100+ points of HP for 1 second.

IIRC, if you enter the character screens and shuffle your interfaces, you can actually pick up books without reading them by clicking on them while in that menu, in the inverse of how dropping items works. This lets you avoid the cost of higher level skill training by preserving the books for late in the progression. They can also bypass the Governing Attribute limit, and using them on a skill at 100 still counts towards character level ups.

How do you combat spell reflect? By casting spells you are resistant, immune to or by using effects of spell absorb. Joining Telvanni gives a quest that rewards a ring with 100% spell absorb for 30s, making you spell immune and if it gets Reflected you get all your magicka back. Spell absorb or using spells that your chosen race is immune to (like Nords being immune to Frost) is the best way to combat Reflect. You can use Reflect yourself, but if enemy also has Reflect, the spell will still hit you because it can be reflected only once. Resist element restoration spells are quite cheap and easy to cast.

There is option to destroy Heart of Lorkhan without using Sunder and Keening yourself , but it requires using two NPCs made followers and there is a lot of aggroing and claming involved. You bring them near the heart, sell/pickpocket Sunder and Keening on them and then aggro them. They can hit the heart while trying to hit player

Ok, so for the atronachs, fire is weak to ice and ice to fire, while the storm atronach doesn't care what you use unless it's shock, which obviously doesn't do much. Kinda silly and it really feels like there'd be a pokemon style type match-up as you mentioned, there just isn't. Seems Bethesda cared more about the lore than balancing back when they established this stuff in the 90's. Ash vampires are Dunmer, so they should take fire pretty well, but they're also classified as vampires (despite not being actual Molag Bal vampires, but whatever), so they're more weak to fire than resistant to it. No idea if your questions were serious, but if anyone was genuinely wondering, here it is.

I once did a run as a orc mage that couldn't cast spells, so I just used enchanted items and beat people up with my staff. Probably the most fun run I had in the last few years. Also got really good use out of the insane amounts of juiced Telvanni loot (ironically the rewards are so much better for a non spellcaster than a caster).

A good idea is "Can you beat morrowind only using enchantments" as you can create some really powerful damaging enchantments, utility, and even soul trap, it would have a rough start but if you can get a good soul trap + damage and soul gems you're set.

19:00 To answer that, Vivec does not want to remove it , to him it was a symbol of faith. A reminder of why the Dunmer should be Grateful for him. (Vivec is self-absorbed if that was not obvious) . After his disappearance, The Dunmer used a Device called the Ingeinum to keep it stuck in time. Yet they could not maintain it. Leading the thing to blast straight to the ground starting the events of Red Year. As for reflect, countless ways to deal with it. dispel on touch first comes to mind! most reflections are precentile based and they are not very high so enough willpower makes damage minuscule. Even more so if you have spell absorption or resistance to the element you are using allowing you to blast freely.

When dealing with any vendor who sells an item that restocks every time you barter, if you sell the items back to the vendor, it will increase how many the vendor will restock. So say you sell back 2, next time he will have 4 and if you buy those and then sell them back they will have 8, eventually you can buy like 100 scrolls at a time and it makes restocking on alchemy ingredients like Ash Yams and Netch Leather was faster.
