    Lvl 46 nightblade Bloodmage KHAJIIT vampire rank 10 and i am NOT concerned at all with my fire resistance behing an issue. I play it the hard way and save for that lovely village quest in coldharbor wich even non vampire love to call broken and yet ive been able to complete ive NEVER found my fire weakness to be gimping me.

    If as a khajiit i can endure fire... i can certainly endure it even better as a dark elf or a breton. Thus the crying on the fire weakness is unjustified.

    Note: Im not backing my math with anything because to be honest i cant but i can tell you that after having recommanded some fire resist to a certain player he didnt actualy suffer as much in the 8 fire mob village and managed to get his quest done. This may not cover 100% of the weakness but it still makes your life easyer and anyone who tried can tell the differance.

    One bow to darken the sun
    One bow to unite the clans
    One bow to conquer the world and in darkness drown it...

    Honestly the worst part isn't even the fire damage. It's the way I had my character set up with Blood Craze (My bleed) and Drain Essence being my two heals. Taking heavy damage all those mobs practically negated my healing over time and I would get knocked down/stunned while using my drain which would cancel it so I couldn't heal.

    Normally I can alternate my drain from target to target but it was the monsters CC that was the worst part, because as far as I know you cannot block or dodge roll while draining.

    I will consider using fire resistance jewelry and I thank you all for enlightening me, I apologize for my rude and sarcastic remarks, they were uncalled for, as was my whining, it was really just me venting, and I'm sorry for burdening these forums with that, and to the above post, I have the same problem with blood craze, and even soul leech, two wasted morphs and skill points, I think, I expected the heals to be stronger but they're hardly noticeable, I think it'd be a nice addition if we could cancel our drain by dodge rolling, I'd also like it if we could drain a target more than once, perhaps as a possible morph within a morph, or give the ability a cool down per target, because I've noticed that if I die while fighting a mob I've already drained, if I respawn and try to go fight it again, it's still immune to my drain because I've already used it on that particular enemy. I will try to get betetr at the game and pay better attention to boss cues, believe me when I say I'm not as terrible as it may seem, It's just something about me, I can't tell when the boss is about to do her attack, it all just blends in together and becomes a giant blur of fire and lava to my eyes.

    I'd even sell you some nice Enchants at reasonable prices. :)

    What's a 'reasonable' price? And also, I remember you from the Bethsoft forums before release. (:

    They don't. They only have very basic enchants.

    Get one of the screen recording programs. They'll save in a format YouTube accepts.
