Leveling restoration tips? with equilibrium?

[D55]

I got equilibrium last night and tried the equilibrium in one hand heal in the other and i couldnt see any raise in my restoration skill even after holding both on for several minutes,i even tried getting my health quite low then healing but if there was an improvement i barely saw anything.

If this is working its incredibly slow

Whats the best way to level restoration,id like to do it on the move while playing but im happy to stop every now and then to do it.

Tips and advice would be appreciated

Get 100% fortify restoration then...

Let a giant hit you

Use close wounds

Repeat.

That's how I did it.

Step 1. Make money.
Step 2. goto college of winterhold.
Step 3. Buy levels.
Step 4. make more money.

How long does that take? sounds a bit risky but ill try it later.
Maybe i could get attacked by a few bandits,soak up some damage and heal through it but i might as well use Equilibrium[elderscrolls.wikia.com]

This is what ive done to get to 75 restoration but im looking for ways to go from 75 to what ever i need to start the ritual quest lines,its been a long time since i last played skyrim and i cant remember an efficient way to finish off restoration.

I was kind of hoping that Equilibrium[elderscrolls.wikia.com] combined with a self heal would do the trick and if not someone would know a better\easier way

1. Find Bear.

2. Eqiup shield in left hand.

3. Equip healing spell in right hand.

4. Profit.

This is why I hate elder scrolls levelling system. What a load of grindy crap?

It was worse in the older versions, scarily enough. At least now it's just a mindless grind vs a stupid mechanic you had create your character around.

just play, as long as you get wounded every now and then eventually it will get to 100
i like this games skill system because of the normal growth of skills
unlike falout where you shoot people in the face all day and learn... science?
i guess you studied the transfer of kinetic force from bullet to skull

am stil waiting for the uncapper tho, thats still missing

if you really want to grind just ignore a wolf pack or something while travelling
and keep castng heal as they bite your ankles
also helps lvling armor skill

1)Use Healing in one hand and Equilibirum in another hand. Put difficulty on Novice(half damage taken), get some perks in restoration to ensure that your healing restore more than 12.5 health per second. Put something heavy on both mouse buttons and go get some sleep.
2)Get gear with 100% restoration cost reduction, preferably armor. Get some giant to attack you and start healing, you will get both armor skill and restoration up this way. Using shield is ok too, for blocking. Giant - because harder hits mean more xp for armor and block, and for restoration due to more health to restore. Changing difficulty up or down is good too.
3)If you want your levels bloated, level Illusion instead. With Harmony spam in city, it takes about 5 casts to go 15->100.
4) Get Mage Stone up, and preferably Aetherium Crown and well rested bonus before doing any of the above.

I just heal after every battle, no matter the damage I've taken.

try verify cache it should fix all yours problems

[SpeedFreak1972]

a verify doesn't help in this case ... maybe check first what is asked ......

[Gustuv Wynd]

If you want to power level it a little bit...

Find a trap that resets or those swinging blades...let them hit you a couple times...heal...regen your Magicka...rinse and repeat.

But I would typically have a pretty high skill in Restoration fairly quick just from normal use.

In the greybeards courtyard, there is an unpassable trail (due to weather)
Go there, walk a few feet in and heal at the same time. Step back out before you die.

That was by far the most effective and hassle free option
