So, I've been clearly bored over the past few days, and getting my skills up as much as possible. Just wanting to know your stats and any tips you can give regarding the ones you've found to be the most conventionally gruelling to get to 100.

Personally, I've hit 100 in all but Sneak, Alchemy, Pickpocketing and Two Handers. I found the most annoying to get to max would've had to have been Restoration. I had max enchanting and the complete 100% fortify restoration on the four pieces, but found that, if I played on Novice, I wouldn't get hit very hard. When I played on Master, I died way too quickly to let off a dual cast Close Wounds or Grand Healing spell. On adept, I wouldn't take enough damage to get the levels as quick as I would have liked, so I'd take on four or five Falmar Shadowmasters and would struggle to stay alive. Even on Expert, a Troll would tend to 1-hit me, and Imperial Guards were weak. In the end, I sat in Solitude, and after assaulting a guard, would spam Grand Healing for about 3 hours whilst thirty guards attacked me. I died near 99, so had to start again. Learned to save more often, and after at least 30 deaths later, made it to 100 (I was playing on Adept).

The second most gruelling has to be Alchemy. Because I'm not completely knowledgable of the most expensive potions, I'm unaware of which I must be focusing on. The alchemy skill books have helped me to 70, but then comes the huge grind to 100. Any tips on which potions to focus on would be great (I've been focusing on Regenerate Magicka, worth 800 a pop, but would like any other tips you can give).

The character I have been playing as of late looks like the following:

Name: Shelmiac
Race: Altmer
Skills at 100:Illusion, Conjuration, Destruction, Restoration, Alteration, Enchanting, Smithing, Two-handed.

Everything else is in the 60's or higher save Light Armor (34), Sneak(35), Pickpocket (1 cool , and Alchemy (23).

I didn't really have much trouble leveling Restoration. I just used the spell that burns health for MP in conjunction with healing spells. Leveling Alteration is a cinch with Telekinesis.

I tried Equilibrium, but it definitely took way too long to level! Plus, getting to 100 Restoration the way I did allowed me to get to 100 Heavy Armour and 100 Block at the same time, pretty much. Ended up killing three birds with one stone.

For Alteration, I used Ironflesh and Ebonyflesh till 100 while a wolf attacked me, simply because I didn't get Telekinesis in Labyrinthian (I got Ebonyflesh, I think), and I couldn't be bothered finding the Alteration guy in Winterhold (he is so annoying to find - Tolfdir, is it?).

Destruction was a lot of fun, though. I did it during Stormcloak raids, and it was a sinch to Fireball a group of Imperials all at once (was playing on Novice at the time).

Yeah, Tolfdir. He's usually either in the Hall of Attainment or the Hall of Elements. As evidenced by my stats, and overall appreciation of Altmer, I usually play some kind of mage so magic isn't much trouble for me. The problem for me will prolly be Pickpocket...

I'm a bad little Dunmer, I "cheated" by using the OI tome/bookshelve glitch to level my character to level 81 with all skills at 100, and all perks.

Most of my perks on are the schools of Magicka, some in Blacksmith, and some into Light Armor.

Does it make me a less naughty Dunmer that I only did this on my second character, after spending hours doing it the "right" way with my 1st?

Oh, damn. You're bad. Very bad.

Did they repair that glitch with a patch? I think I've tried it before with no luck.

LOL I'm a Telvanni I don't give a hoot!!!!

Um I'm not sure if that was fixed with the latest patches or not. I think I was running the 1.3 or 1.4 patch at the time. I'm sure UESP would have something on whether or not it works any more. They are pretty great about keeping all their articles up to date.

Lol I did the bookshelf glitch too on my "sandbox" save, I couldn't get all perks though, assuming you mean each and every perk :U
I did get the full 80, with my exp bar stuck in the middle of 80-81 XD, used to seeing it full.

Mine is stuck between 80 and 81 as well, and I meant all 80 points you get to spend on perks not all the perks for every skill.
