Jump Up Mountains Backward!

Submitted by: killtion

If you can't climb up a hill/mountain any further because it is too steep, try this! You can turn around (so your butt faces the mountain - and you're looking away from the mountain). Once facing the opposite direction, try jumping and pressing the control stick toward the mountain. If you do this a bunch, you'll actually go up the mountain even though it's too steep to walk up. You can also try diagonally in both directions to help you creep up the mountain.

Solution To The Dragonreach Cave Puzzle (Spoiler)

For the first mission for Dragonreach (inside the cave) you must solve a combination puzzle. Look to the wall above the closed gate and you will see two heads with a gap in the middle. Each one holds a picture of a creature (snake / dolphin). On the floor by the lever is the third creature (a snake). The combination is Snake, Snake, Dolphine. The second combination is found deeper in the chambers and it is a turntable combination, which is more difficult. The solution is Bear, Owl, Bird. Insert the claw, and then the door will open. That's it!

Putting Bucket On A Persons Head With Out Them Knowing

Submitted by: useddragonborn

This a super easy way to steal stuff off a person without them knowing its really helpful if your on a quest. First, pick up a bucket by holding the A button until you are able to move it around (the bigger the better). Next, move the bucket over the person of your choice then drop it on that person. Finally, crouch make sure you are undetected by everyone around you then steal the desired item. Thats it but I'm not sure if it works on bandits and guards but it works on every one else and it helps to be high in sneak hoped this helped and if it didn't sorry please like and comment.

Invisible Chest

Submitted by: foxracing64

If you take a carriage to dawnstar you should go to iron breaker mine. As you approach the mine look to your left there should be some trees and a few rocks go over to them and look around it might take you a minute to find it but theres an invisable chest there. Now depending on what level you are there is one of everything in that chest. Now go outside the village and there should be this little camp out side if not wait a few days and it will come. Now trade 1 thing with the carravan and buy 1 thing after this save your game, and the next day you come back to it ( real world time) there should be 1 of every thing back in that chest enjoy!

Get Everything To Level 100 In 5 Minutes

Submitted by: palkiadragon117

Once you get the book "oghma infinium", go to or buy the house in Whiterun and go to the bookshelf in the alchemy laboratory. Crouch and go into first person, then activate the bookshelf, go down to books, activate the book, choose the desired path, then place the book on the bookshelf. Once you see the book appear on the bookshelf, activate it, say do not read, and take the book. Do this as many times as needed/desired. BTW, do not read the book before you get to the bookshelf or you ruin the glitch. I recommend saving when you get to the bookshelf just in case.

Submitted by: buzztheasum

When you are at a part with a claw (golden, diamond, ivory, etc. ) instead of opening the door with trial and error go into your inventory and look at the claw's bottom and you will see the same symbols as the ones on the door. From top to bottom in the same order have the wall match the claw and the door will open.

How To Become A Vampire

Submitted by: Chinbalba

  • When you are fighting against vampires, you also have a chance of contracting vampirism each time they land a hit on you - that could turn you into a vampire! If you contract the disease, it can be cured with any of your regular disease potions. But, if you want to turn into a vamipre, you can wait three days and the disease will become permanent
    There are four stages of the disease of Vampirism. The longer you go without blood, the more powerful the benefits of vampirism will become, but the weaknesses will also get worse. You can only drink blood from sleeping NPCs. As each stage of vampirism increases, some effects stay the same, while others change. The four stages of Vampirism and their effect (changes between stages are only listed) are as follows:
  • Stage 1
  • Vampires have a 25% increase to their Illusion spells. They are 25% harder for NPCs to detect, have 100% resistance to diseases or poisons, and are 25% resistant to ice.
  • Vampires are 25% weaker to fire, and their health, magic, and stamina stats are reduced by 15 points in the sunlight. Those three stats also do not regenerate.
  • Vampires have the power to reanimate the dead to serve them. They can also improve their night vision with another power.
  • Vampires gain a spell that allows them to drain the health of their enemies.
  • Stage 2
  • Vampires are 50% resistant to frost, and their vampiric servant and drain powers are more powerful.
  • Vampires are 50% weaker to fire, and their health, magic, and stamina stats are reduced by 30 points in the sunlight.
  • Vampires gain the "Vampiric Seduction" power, which calms enemies (animals and people) for 30 seconds. Thus, they will not attack you.
  • Stage 3
  • Vampires are 75% resistance to ice, and their powers of reanimating the dead and draining the living become more powerful.
  • Vampires are 75% weaker to fire, and their health, magic, and stamina stats are reduced by 45 points in the sunlight.
  • Stage 4
  • Vampires are 100% resistant to ice, and their vampiric servant and drain powers are more powerful.
  • Vampires are 100% weak to fire, and their health, magic, and stamina stats are reduced by 60 points in the sunlight.
  • All NPCs are hostile towards Stage 4 vampires.
  • Vampires gain the "Embrace Of Shadows" power, which turns your character invisible for three minutes.

  • Once you're turned into a vampire, you can only lose it by turning into a werewolf (lycanthrope), or by completing the "Rising at Dawn" quest.

    New Gold

    Submitted by: sweetpea16

    Any jarl or sometimes person you help along the way by doing tasks for them, you can usually go through their chests and drawers with new gold present. Sometimes its laid out on the counter or under the one the innkeepers stand. You can only do this when you have helped the person out enough.

    Duplicate Books

    You can repeat this glitch if you own a house with an alchemy lab. Activate the bookshelf and then place the desired book to be duplicated on the shelf. Leave the menu and immediately activate the bookshelf again. If your book has not yet physically appeared on the shelf, wait at the menu screen where you can loot the bookshelf. Once you see the book in front of you (it will hover in front of the shelf while the menu is open), loot the book from the shelf in the menu. Immediately close the menu, and you can click on the book itself to read and then take it. You will now have looted the book twice, putting two of them in your inventory. Repeat this as many times as desired. It is especially useful with expensive books such as the Oghma Infinium.

Leave the location of the mannequin, and go to a different area (for example, exit a house), then return to the mannequin to find the item still on the mannequin, which you can then take. Repeat this as many times as desired.

    First you must join The Companions faction and successfully complete all quests for The Companions Faction. Once that's done, talk to the leader of The Companions, Kodlak Whitemane, or ask around about a cure for werewolves. Speaking with Aela the Huntress in Whiterun will also tell you more about The Companions' affliction. The Companions will offer you a special quest that will cure your lycanthropy, which is a permanent change. You will never be able to become a werewolf again. Successfully complete the quest to not be a werewolf ever again.

    Partners Have Infinite Uses On All Enchanted Weapons

    Submitted by: shadowrage009

    1st get a partner, hired or earned it does not matter. 2nd give them any enchanted weapon the stronger the better ? 3rd when your partner uses the weapon the weapon never runs out of the enchantment, hint if they have a weapon with 25 fire damage they will always do fire damage. I found that this also works with the soul trap enchantment, give all your soul gems to your partner and give them a weapon with the soul trap ability and they will fill your soul gems for you and never run out of soul trap.

    How To Get Around Faster

    Submitted by: cross1989

    I realized this after playing for two days and alot of running. If you need to go across the map you can look for the nearest capital and pay for a carrage ride there and then walk the much shorter distance to your final destination there is a cart outside each capital.

    Unlimited Containers And Storage

    Submitted by: killtion

    All of the containers in Skyrim are persistent and hold items that do not disappear. So, any container (for example: barrels, boxes, chests, etc.) can be used to store your items. You can use containers near loading locations to keep things more organized. But, be careful, because some containers can "reset" and your items could vanish. You can try out different containers to see the effects. To be the safest, you'll need to purchase a house and store everything within it.

    Muffle Spell Tip

    Submitted by: killtion

    Almost all good spells that you can use make you actively use them in combat or use them on specific objects. The Muffle spell does not have the same requirement. The Muffle spell is an Illusion spell that quiets your movements. You can repeatedly cast Muffle while you are walking around to increase your Illusion skill and increase your overall experience.
