    Just my two cents...I know you really want the Soul Strike skill, but I wouldn't try to rush/level faster all the way to 45 just to get it. That would be a lot of boring grinding or rushed content just for one ability. I don't use Soul Strike myself, but I can't imagine any one ability being worth all that. Just take your time and enjoy the ride...You will get the ability eventually and won't have skipped/rushed a good chunk of the game to get it :)

    Disclaimer: If you really enjoy grinding or don't enjoy questing/story content then, of course, the above wouldn't apply lol



    i actually have grinded ina few games so im used to it. usually when im done i can enjoy the game more because i know that im finally done with whatever i was grinding for :O ... but i see ur point too

    Yeah every major quest should award a full level in Soul Magic.

    No, Soul Magic is the vestige quest line reward. Consider it the same as you would a Mage or Fighter guild quest line. Separate to all other quests, including the "main" quest line.

    Maybe Undaunted should level up at the same time as provisioning ?



    what are u saying? doing the main quest has nothing to do with leveling soul magic cuz everyone else says it does :/

    I guess that depends on which you define as "major quest" and "the main quest" .... they aren't the same

    Everyone knows the phenomenon of trying to hold your breath underwater - how at first it's alright and you can handle it, and then as it gets closer and closer to the time when you must breathe, how urgent the need becomes, the lust and the hunger to breathe. And then the panic sets in when you begin to think that you won't be able to breathe - and finally, when you take in air and the anxiety subsides...that's what it's like to be a vampire and need blood.

    All skills level up by having the skill on your bar and earning exp.
    Most skill lines (not the skills in the line, but the whole group) are leveled via normal exp (with a skill from the skill line loaded on your bar, more of the same line on your bar, the faster the skill line levels)

    The excepts are
    Soul magic - Doing main quest line (the quests in The Harborage)
    Werewolf - Killing mobs while in werewolf form
    Mage Guild - Picking up special lore books
    Fighters Guild - Killing undead and daedric
    Undaunted - Doing dungeons achievements and daily pledges
    Ledgerdemain - Opening locks (doors and chests) and fencing items

    The 3 armor skill lines, theses level based on damage taken mulipied by the number of items of that type you are wearing

    I specifically mean only the times you go to the Harborage and do an adventure for/with the Prophet. That quest line is the "main" quest of the game.

    If by main quest you mean the major/primary quest line(s) that relate to each alliance; no those are different in each alliance and while they do give you XP and skill points, they have nothing to do with the tasks you get from the Prophet (granted they occasionally cross, but it's not the same thing.

    Sorry if I wasn't clear earlier.

    Go into the harborage and use the portal there. If you not yet accepted the quest, go back to harborage, enter and exit again, walk a couple steps until the prophet's projection shows up. This guides you back into the harborage where you can accept the quest from the prophet.

    Are you certain the quest isn't already in your journal? (Under Main Quest) You may need to relog.

    Hmmm...well usually porting to the wayshrine in a major city should trigger it again, if it doesn't then it's a bug.

    You could try. By the way, if you go inside the Harborage, what does the Prophet have to say? Is he even there for you?

    I"m thinking not only look under quests - but isn't there a way to check for quests you have already done; have you maybe skipped ahead?

    I don't think so I haven't fond anywhere in the menu that shows competed quests. Just ones that are active. And do u know where to find the oko rune I keep finding every other one except the one I need. Or do u know anyone that knows? Someone good at finding runes?

    You have to keep looking, or buy them from guild traders at their kiosks in various cities (I don't know how this works on console, I'm on PC).

    And no, there is no list of completed quests.

    @newtinmpls , thanks! :)
