I normally train armorer not by fixing my own armor, but by hacking up opponents with armor, and then fixing it (and their weapons) after they are dead. You do need to do most of the damage with physical weapons, rather than magic (don't use cast-on-strike enchantments on your weapon for this). Early on, there are are several places that have skeletons that spawn with iron shields and a selection of weapons, while later you can hunt Golden Saints for their shields (the only way to get the Daedric Tower shield), and if you have the Tribunal DLC, hunting the respawning Dark Brotherhood assassins in the Mournhold Sewers works quite well. If you don't mind the bounty, most or all of the guards without personal names (Telvanni Guard, High Ordinator, etc.) also respawn.
Can get the Fortify skill spell from Bonrod the Roarer in the Skaal Village on Solstheim or from several priests in Mournhold - 1 in the temple, 2 in the imperial cult.
Armorer is just one of those skills that is a pain to exp-grind, for no good reason.
1. regarding fix armor of others, tried guards. A bit tooooooo slow, since have to taunt guard, then kill, then loot, then fix - and this gives 1-2 points of 1% of skill. Guards do not respawn in some quick way, so probably also need to travel between towns (I tried to just wait 5 days, they don't respawn). Anyway, its too long. Also disintegrate does not work on them, 100lvl spell drops merely several hp, even when they are hostile
2. for being beaten by not-animals, I've tried to be beated by golden saint, but it outputs sooooo small results. And I can't repair during battle, so to get that 1-2 points, I should stop battle somehow (it doesn't work with just levitate), for example run far enough, then repair for 1-2 points, then run back. Too slow, I mean impossibly slow
3. for Fortify Armorer for trainer sounds good, is this actually checked for this steam version game? Anyway, I didn't start Bloodmoon and I have to done some part of bloodmon's main quest to unlock that spellcrafter - before that they all won't talk to PC, just checked. But looks like decent option anyway
Found solution. Previously mentioned enchanting amulet with disintegrate and that it is bugged. So. I've tried to enchant a shield and is also works, and is also bugged, but with shield I actually figured out WHY it is bugged. Game may crash etc after shields health drop below 0, so PC should't wait too much, but repair shield every time, to not let it drop below zero - thats it. So, you wait, repair, wait, repair, wait, repair. Depending on shield, one wait=5+ points. So one level=20 wait+repair cicles. Its decent, comparing to everything I tried before
Yeah, it works.
By default, every trainer teaches whatever their highest skills are. The main issue is getting the Fortify Skill spell, assuming you have the gold for training. Best option would probably be one of the 2 Imperial priests at the Imperial Cult Services in the Mournhold palace. The skill of the spell you buy doesn't matter.
You make a cheap 100pts/2 second spell of any skill, use that on a trainer and they'll train you in that skill.
If Tribunal is enabled you'll get attacked by Dark Brotherhood assassins when you rest until you go to Ebonheart and speak with Apelles Matius, and he tells you to speak with Asciene Rane. She'll teleport you to the Royal Palace in Mournhold.
yes, will try, sounds good
> Magic resistance
of course I removed everything for experiments. Even farther: casted spells to draw down skills like armor and armorer, just in case
> weakness to magicka
sounds interesting, though from what I've achieved with disintegration, looks like disintegration is super mega very very very slow method. Like just going playing game and repairing armor is actually faster and easier. Have you actually tried level up couple levels of armorer, using disintegration? Developers may changed game a bit for last years, so old methods may not work now. So far everything disintegrate-related doesn't work for me.. except enchanting, which works fine - I've leveled 10+ levels in last hour, which is ok
> wear armor and weapon
:)
> wear armor and weapon
well, as I said, I actually tried different sets of armor (I mean different types: iron, glass etc. Leather disintegrates best). AND I tried to wear different sets, I mean wear full armor vs wear just one item, tried different places (head, legs, torso etc)
> repair prongs
yes, for sure they give most exp per broken item. 1st hammer gives about 5 points of exp per broken shield, while prongs gives about 10 points, which is even better
If you guys tested recently any working method with DISINTEGRATE on this vanilla and sacceeded to level up 10 levels in less then an hour, please let me know. So far enchanting works best, other methods are slow (not trainers, trainers looks best)
