Beginners Tipps
Hi,

i just started with the game. Played maybe 6 hours and i like it.

Is it normal, that this game is more difficult than skyrim? Is it normal that iam dying a lot?

Shall i skip most of the uncharted places at the beginning because these are hard?

Please give me some tipps for the beginning.

Yes, it is completely normal. This game doesn't hold your hand. Enemies are way tougher than comparable levels to Skyrim SE. Enemies don't level with you like they do in Skyrim SE. Enemies are a fixed level in different areas. It's quite possible to go from a relatively easy area, and find yourself in an another area where enemies are of higher levels, and it's game over rather quickly.

OK thanks for the quick reply. then i will try to solve some quests at the beginning first and level up a lil bit and try another area. the area at the beginning is already hard.

Get a summon ASAP.
You can buy a summon wolf spell in the very first town or in the crazy mage's hut near the first town.

Also before you get a summon, try to cheese with sword and fire spell.

Please help me,

Iam Not sure if i should keep playing this game.

On the 2nd difficulty Its still Hard to me.

Most of the dungeons Are still to Hard. Had to skip the Most.

Iam at level 5. paying style two handed, bow and heavy armor.

Already made some sidequest and bought some skill Books.

Now iam on the way with jespar to ark.

Thinking about to pause this game.

I like the levelling system in skyrim more than this one.

What do you think?

maybe you went to caves that are not bound to any quests and are too high level.
doing the sidequests in riverville is always good, you should be around level 7 when you heading to Ark in my opinion.
did you also spent some points in the meditation area (skill tree)?

you can put the difficulty to the lowest one if you need to, Enderal is much harder than Skyrim.

Hi. Thanks for replying.

Yes i already spent some points in the Meditation area.

Maybe i will change it to the lowest difficulty.

I was wondering that some people mentioned that the Game is Not that difficult on adept. Hell no!

I already did some sidequest in riverville.

In a way i really like this game! But to the other Iam Thinking about pausing it because i really dont like the levelling System.

Iam prefering the levelling System in skyrim. It is More motivated.

The Fever which the character has is getting on my nerves. I have to Pay attention Not to heal with potion or magic because of increasing it.

First world gamers Problem?

It is quite a bit more difficult than Skyrim SE. The issue is that, unlike Skyrim SE, enemies don't level with your character. Certain areas have enemies that are of a fixed level. So, it's possible to move from a completely do-able area to one where you would die very quickly. Also, using a two-handed sword gives you almost zero ability to block. A sword & shield combo will not only give you blocking, it will increase your armour amount.

Haven't read the tips page suggested further up by overdev yet, but try to remember that melee in this game is harder, and that there are more emphasis on magic. Before leaving to ARK, try to level up by using the magic you start with and perhaps with a bow, no matter what kind of character you choose later on.

Even if you put points into the warrior or the sneak stone, magic in the game is a bit OP in that regard as it allows you to relatively quickly kill enemies while you walk backwards. You do start with two spells from the start so you might as well use them.

Don't use two handed too early as you're a lot more vulnerable in the beginning armour wise before having spent more into that stone.

Also, retreat often if you can, especially by running outside of caves early on to recuperate (and eat) before heading in again. This should prevent the fever to rise too fast too quickly. I even use this tactic when it comes to caves near ARK because I died a lot.

In any case, all games have a certain "adjusting" period were the player stumbles and dies a lot before one masters the different aspects. Personally, Enderal feels a heck of a lot more natural because enemies levelling up with you like in Skyrim is pretty lazy programming from the developers side. True RPGs are not supposed to be like that, and then there's the incentive to actually revisit the area if the enemies was too hard earlier.

eating in this game is your friend.. also you can use some magic to heal yourself without getting fever. you can drain enemies health with light magic that will heal you and hurt the enemie at the same time. i think it is a must have spell in the early game.
